Abort

6

The firing was stopped.

 

 

 

 

ALAR

 

Alarm

6, 10, 13 - 15, 20, 22

ALAR appears either when you are entering an alarm tempera- ture or when the alarm is sounding during a firing. To stop an alarm, press any key except STOP. If the alarm goes off when you first begin firing, it is because it was set for a lower tempera- ture than the present temperature.

AOP

Auxiliary Output

10, 11, 13, 14, 18, 20

The AOP option is for kilns equipped with a special-order kiln switch box receptacle called the Auxiliary Output.

F 20

 

Fast Speed

17

Cone-Fire fast speed shows in Program Review as F 20. This is also how Fast Speed is listed in the SPd Speed option.

FAIL

Thermocouple Failed 22

The thermocouple failed. This can be due to a broken thermo- couple, loose thermocouple connection on the back of the Sen- try, disconnected thermocouple wire, or a defective controller.

FAN

Vent Fan

11, 18, 20

The Fan option, accessed through the OPTIONS key, is for kilns equipped with a special-order kiln switch box receptacle called the Auxiliary Output.

bAdP

Bad Programming 22

This message appears when a Ramp-Hold firing has been pro- grammed with 0 rate in the first segment.

FAST

Fast Speed

10

In Cone-Fire programming, if you press ENTER when FAST ap- pears, the kiln will program to fire at fast speed.

CAdJ

Center Adjust

16

For two zone kilns only. This option adjusts the center section of the kiln.

CFG

Configuration Code 21

This is an option that shows the factory configuration code for your Sentry. This is for technicians who call the factory for sup- port.

CHG-

Change ￿F / ￿C

19

Choose between operation in degrees F or degrees C.

CONE

Cone-Fire

10

The Sentry is ready for you to enter a cone number.

COOL

Slow Cooling

10

In Cone-Fire programming, Slow Cooling is shown as COOL. To program a slow cooling, enter the cooling rate in degrees per hour. Leave the setting at 0 if you do not want a slow cooling.

CPLT

Completed Firing 5, 10, 13

This means the firing completed as programmed.

DELA

Delay

6, 10, 13

DELA is a timer that starts the kiln later. Delay time appears in hours and minutes.

°F 1 or °C 1 Target Temperature 13

This prompt, which appears in Ramp-Hold programming, is ask- ing for a target temperature. The number is to remind you which segment the temperature is for.

DIFF

Temperature Difference 16, 21

This option shows the maximum temperature spread between zones in a multiple zone kiln.

ELEC

Electronics Temperature 20

The Sentry circuit board is rated for operation at temperatures up to 158￿F/70￿C. When the circuit board gets hotter, the Sentry shuts off. The ELEC option tells you how hot the circuit board is.

ETH

Electronics Too Hot 22

The Sentry circuit board is too hot, so the kiln was shut off.

FN 1

Fan

13, 14

If your kiln has the optional AOP outlet (for a kiln vent), the FN prompt will appear for each segment during Ramp-Hold programming. It is asking if you want the vent on or off for that segment.

FTC

Failed to Cool

22

This error message means the kiln cannot cool as fast as the cooling that you programmed.

FTH

Failed to Heat

22

The kiln cannot heat as fast as you programmed.

FTL

Firing Too Long

22

The temperature rise is less than 27￿F/15￿C per hour and the fir- ing time is four hours longer than the current segment was pro- grammed.

FULL

Full Speed

13

The rate, or temperature change per hour, is maximum.

Hd 1

Temperature Hold 13, 14

When this message appears during Ramp-Hold programming, it is asking you if you want to hold, or maintain, the target tempera- ture of that segment. If so, enter the length of hold time in hours and minutes (i.e. 1 hour 20 minutes = 01.20). The number after Hd is the segment number. Each segment in a Ramp-Hold firing is numbered, starting with 1.

HOLd

Temperature Hold 10

When this message appears during Cone-Fire programming, it is asking you if you want to hold, or maintain, the cone tempera- ture at the end of the firing. If so, enter the length of hold time in hours and minutes (i.e. 1 hour 20 minutes = 01.20). When HOLd appears in program review, it is showing how much hold time has been entered.

HtdE

High Temperature Deviation 22

The temperature is above the Temperature Deviation setting in the TEDE option.

ID

Computer ID

20

The ID option is for connecting the Sentry to a personal com- puter.
