changed states. This feature allows for minimal block temperaturescanning
times and improved accuracy.
Example 2:
With theinstrument displaying 25°C, set the set-point to 100°C and enable the
Scan Hold feature. When the thermal switch changes states at50°C, the con-
troller automatically sets a new set-point of 50°C and the status flashes either
"o or c".
Note: There is a delay between the displayed temperature and the actual tem-
perature of the thermal switch. Toachieve better accuracy when the thermal
switch is tripped, the scan rate should be set for a slower time. The slowerthe
scan rate the more time required to perform a test. The operator must determine
the optimal scan rate for the specific application.

6.5 Ramp and Soak Program Menu

The ramp and soak program feature allows the user to program a number of

6.5.1 Number of Program Set-points

The first parameter in the program menu is the number of set-points to cycle
through. Up to 8 set-points can be used in a ramp and soak program.
Pn=8 Number of program set-points
Use the “UP” or “DOWN” buttonsto change the number from 2 to 8.
Pn=3 New number of program set-points
