9.3 Scan

The scan rate can be set and enabled so that when the set-point is changed the bath heats or cools at a specified rate (degrees per minute) until it reaches the new set-point. With the scan disabled the bath heats or cools at the maximum possible rate.

9.3.1Scan Control

The scan is controlled with the scan on/off function that appears in the main menu after the set-point function.
