7.7.4 GT, GTF Go To Temperature

This command instructs the controller to control to the setpoint specified in the command. Bit 4 (setpoint reached) of the Status Byte is set when the chamber or platform has stabilized within .1 degree of the setpoint for 15 seconds. The command syntax is:

GT<space>[-]ttt.t<CR><LF>

Celsius mode

GTF<space>[-]ttt.t<CR><LF>

Fahrenheit mode

Example:

 

GT 125<CR><LF>

Celsius mode

GTF 180<CR><LF>

Fahrenheit mode

7.7.5 RA, RAF Ramp to Temperature

This command executes a ramping function. The operands of the command include a ramp temperature and a ramp time. The controller will execute a linear ramp from the current temperature to the specified temperature over the specified time period. Bit 4 (setpoint reached) of the Status Byte is set when the chamber or platform has stabilized within .1 degree of the setpoint for 15 seconds. The command syntax is:

RA<space>[-]ttt.t<space>hh<space>mm<CR><LF> Celsius mode RAF<space>[-]ttt.t<space>hh<space>mm<CR><LF> Fahrenheit mode

Where ttt.t is the final setpoint temperature

hhare hours to be used for the ramp

mmare the minutes to be used for the ramp

Example:

 

RA -55 2 15<CR><LF>

Celsius mode

RAF -55 2 15<CR><LF>

Fahrenheit mode

Ramps to -55/over 2 hours and 15 minutes
