The Profiling Page allows you to enter your ramp and soak profile information.

To go to the Profiling Page from the Home Page, press the Advance Key ‰ for three seconds, until [ProF] appears in the lower display and the profile number appears in the upper display. Press the Up ¿ or Down ¯ key to change to another pro- file.

•Press the Advance Key ‰ to move to the selected profile's first step.

•Press the Up ¿ or Down ¯ keys to move through the steps.

•Press the Advance Key ‰ to move through the selected step's settings.

•Press the Up ¿ or Down ¯ keys to change the step's settings.

•Press the Infinity Key ˆ at any time to return to the step number prompt.

•Press the Infinity Key ˆ again to return to the profile number prompt.

•From any point press and hold the Infinity Key ˆ for two seconds to return to the Home Page.

Note: Changes made to profile parameters in the Profiling Pages will be saved and will also have an immediate impact on the running profile.

Some parameters in the Profile Status Menu can be changed for the currently running profile, but should only be changed by knowledgeable personnel and with caution. Changing parameters via the Profile Status Menu will not change the stored profile but will have an immediate impact on the profile that is running.

How to Start a Profile

After defining the profile follow the steps below to run the profile:

1.From the Home Page push the Advance Key ‰ repeatedly until Profile Start [P;St1] appears in the lower display.

2.Use the Up ¿ or Down ¯ key to choose the file or step number within a profile where you want the profile to begin running.

3.Press the Advance Key ‰. This takes you to Profile Action [P;AC1], where you can select the appropriate action.

•[none] No action

•[ProF] Begin execution from first step of the specified profile number, whether it exists or not.

•[PAUS] Pause the currently running profile.

•[rESU] Resume running the profile from the previously paused step.

•[`End] End the profile.

•[StEP] Begin running the profile from the spec- ified step number.

Note: Avoid continuous writes within loops. Excessive writes to EEPROM will cause premature EEPROM failure. The EEPROM is rated for 1,000,000 writes.
