KM OPERATING MANUAL
PROGRAMMING OPTIONS CONTINUED
13.13 REV 1/03/06
OUT4 (Output 4 Settings)
There are 3 standard outputs, 1 safety output and one accessory output on your Skutt GlassMaster con-
troller. The accessory output is designated as Output 4 and can control a number of optional accessories
including vents, alarms and autodialers. Output 4 will cycle these accessories on and off at different times
depending on the program you are running and the way you configure it under the “OUT4” feature setting.
There are 5 different option for OUT4.
Note: “ALR4” is the factory default setting. When you access the Output 4 feature the feature options will
appear in the order listed below. The first option listed is not neccessarily the current setting.
“OP A” (Option A)
When option A is selected Output 4 will turn on during segments 1,2,3 and 6 of a GlassFire Mode program.
Output 4 will not turn on at anytime during a Ramp and Hold Program. This program is designed to vent
out fumes during the beginning of the program and allow for faster cooling from the process temperature
down to the annealing temperature.
“OP b” (Option B)
When option B is selected Output 4 will turn on only during segment 6 of a GlassFire Mode program.
This program is designed to limit a fan from coming on when fusing extremely sensitive large pieces of
glass. It will come on between the process temperature and the annealing temperature to help prevent
devitrification.
When a Ramp/Hold program is entered it will ask whether you want the fan (or other accessory) on for
each segment you program. After you enter the hold time for each segment the display will show “FAN”
along with the number of the segment you are programming. Alternately it will flash the current setting,
either “OFF” or “ON”. To change the setting toggle it with the “1” key and press “ENTER” to select that
setting.
“OP C” (Option C)
When Option C is selected Output 4 does not come on during any portion of a GlassFire Mode program.
When a Ramp/Hold program is entered it will ask whether you want the fan (or other accessory) on for
each segment you program. After you enter the hold time for each segment the display will show “FAN”
along with the number of the segment you are programming. Alternately it will flash the current setting,
either “OFF” or “ON”. To change the setting toggle it with the “1” key and press “ENTER” to select that
setting.
“ALR4” (Alarm 4)
This is the factory default setting. If Output 4 is not being utilized this is the setting that should be selected.
This feature can also control an external alarm or autodialer to initiate if an Error Code is generated or if
the internal temperature of the kiln reaches the temperature programmed for the ALARM setting of the
program. To deactivate the alarm press “ENTER”.
“PCT” (Percent On)
Output 4 can be programmed to be on for a percent of the time output 3 is on. This option is used when
output 4 controls floor or lid elements. To ensure output 4 stays off at all times, use this option and set the
percentage to zero. The percent can be set from 0 to 150. There are currently no Skutt Kiln designs that can
utilize this feature.
