Complete setting the segment times (2ti ... 16ti), segment set points (2SP
... 16SP), and event alarms (2A1 ... 16A1 and / or 2A2 ... 16A2) if they exist.
For Unneeded or unused segments set the segment times (2ti ... 16ti) to
0, and set the segment set points (2SP ... 16SP) to the same value as the
last active set point. Event alarms may be set to indicate "end of run" as
you feel necessary.
The last menu item for the ramp / soak function is PEnd. PEnd determines
what the control does when the program has ended. You may choose to
have the program repeat (LooP), Hold the last set point (16SP), revert to
the local SP1, or turn the outputs off (OoFF).
It is important to remember that if you want the program to repeat, you must
allow the process to return to the same condition that existed when the
program first started. Remember that the ramp function calculates the
slope by drawing a line from the beginning PV to the ramp target set point.
If the PV at the end of the program is different than the PV at the initial start,
the ramp will calculate differently.
Ramp / Soak Operation

the RUN / HOLD key will be lit. To start the program press the RUN / HOLD
key. The HOLD indicator will go out, and the program will start.
