Watlow EZ-ZONE ® RMC Module • 191 • Chapter 7 Features
Profile Function
The the RMC module supports up to 25 profiles with each having up to 10 steps each. In some applications there is a
need to execute a profile multiple times with varying frequency within multiple Profiles. When and if this need arises,
rather than creating the same steps over and over again it would be wise to think of using a Subroutine. There can be a
maximum of 15 Subroutines having up to 10 steps each. Subroutines can be called from within any Profile. The logic is,
create it just once and execute it as needed from any given profile.

Before creating profiles within any given loop, ensure that all
applicable profile settings are made in the Profile Menu of the
Setup Page. Settings made here are then made available to all
profiles. Also, each loop that is to use a profile must first be
enabled to do so in the Control Loop Menu of the Setup Page.
