6.3.9 Notes on the individual press programs

For the abort speed, we recommend using a value of 300 µm/min in
the layering technique and 150 µm/min in the staining technique.
A higher value (abort speed e.g. 300 µm/min) aborts the press pro-
cedure earlier, while a lower value (abort speed e.g. 100 µm/min)
aborts the press procedure later and prolongs the press procedure.

For the all-ceramic systems from Ivoclar Vivadent (IPS e.max,
IPS Empress Esthetic), only the original standard press programs
which are especially coordinated with the materials must be used.

6.4 Other options and special features of the furnace

6.4.1 Quick selection of the firing program
Each firing program can be directly selected by its program number.
To quickly select the firing program, press the Program key and enter
the program number. Confirm with the ENTER key.
In addition, the Cursor key Left/Right or Minus/Plus keys can be used
in the stand-by screen to navigate through the firing programs.

6.4.2 Indication of invalid entry
If an invalid value is entered by means of the numeric keys (outside
the acceptable value range), the invalid entry still blinks after
confirmation.
As error message, an exclamation mark (!) blinks in the bottom line
of the parameter or detail screen until the next value is entered and
successfully confirmed or the process is aborted with ESC. The old,
valid value reappears.

6.4.3 Error message symbol
The error message symbol should supply a first indication of the type
of error:

Note, information

program has been selected, the
investment ring is selected.

The cursor position (frame around
the symbol) can be changed by
means of the Cursor keys. The
marked investment ring size can
finally be selected using the Enter key.
The ESC key can be used to change to the selection of press
programs.
