Running a Profile
When you assign a profile, it does not start running immediately;

You can start a profile only when it’s in the Ready segment.
1. Press the RAMP/SOAK key repeatedly until you see the Ramp/Soak
mode menu.
2. While the profile is in Ready segment, the only mode available is the
Run mode.
3. Press YES to start the profile, and then ENTER to advance to the next
menu.
