Assured Soak
Assured Soak applies only to Ramp and Soak. Refer to Figure 44. In select-
ing Assured Soak, each segment is extended until the actual temperature
reaches the setup temperature specified in that segment (before moving on
to the next segment). If Assured Soak is not selected, then the unit advances
to the next segment at the specified time, whether or not the specified tem-
perature has been reached. This will not be a factor if a heating or cooling
element is properly sized for the material to be acted upon.
1. Use the arrow keys to select YES or NO.
2. Press the MENU key to advance to segment definition.

Segment Definition
The segment temperature displayed indicates the desired temperature at the
end of the segment time. The starting temperature will be the temperature
from the previous segment, except for segment 01, which will be the current
sensor temperature.
The end of a ramp and soak occurs when segment 16 is completed, or when
a segment with 0 HR and 0 MIN is reached.
The Temperature Controller will continue running at the last specified tem-
perature until the RUN/STOP key is pressed.
1. Adjust the Segment number using the arrow keys. There are 16 possible
segments.
2. As each segment number is changed, adjust the segment end tempera-
ture value and the time values using the arrow keys. In the bottom, right
corner of the Segment Screen is the CP (Control Parameter) number.
