When 9999 is used as a rate, that indicates a maximum ramp rate (either up or down) is being used.

There are some standard wire colors used with different types of thermocouples:
Type K thermocouples - red and yellow
Type S thermocouples - red and black
Type J thermocouples - red and white

One option is to download a printable manual from this page on our web site. Another option is to call us and order one to be sent to you. There is a nominal charge for this, however.

Before pressing ENTER, enter zero until all zeros are displayed, then enter the correct number. If you have already pressed ENTER, you must press ENTER to progress through to the end of the program then start the program again.

The thermocouple is not connected to the controller or has failed. When connecting the thermocouple, connect the red wire to the connector with a RED dot and connect the yellow wire to the connector with the YELLOW dot. On all thermocouples, the RED wire is always negative; the YELLOW wire in this case is the positive. Also there may be a break in one of the thermocouple lead wires, if so, the thermocouple must be replaced.

At the end of a cone firing, the current kiln temperature and 'CPLt' will be alternately flashing in the display. Press STOP. Then press Review Program, the final temperature will display. This final temperature will be retained until the next firing or until the controller is reprogrammed.

If GO does not appear after you have entered the start code, you have typed in the incorrect start code. You can try re-entering the start code or you can change the controllers start code under MENU - CONFIGURATION - START CODE.

It's possible that we will be able to build the controller with the appropriate connectors on it so no special wiring harness would be needed. Check with us to find out what we have available.
