2 In the recipe editor screen, Soak Temp and Hi Limit SP values can be adjusted in the range of -18 to
538°C (0-1000°F). Errors may occur attempting to download a recipe to a Protocol Plus controller profile if
a recipe ramp time, soak temperature or high limit setpoint value is incompatible with the range set
internally for the target controller. If a ramp time, soak temperature or high limit setpoint value is
incompatible with the target controller’s range setting, an error message similar to Figure 23 will be
displayed, and no changes will be made to the Controller's profile.
3 The Link to Profile value STBY (Standby mode) can only be used with Protocol Plus controller version
4 or higher. If a recipe with the Standby mode selected is chosen for download to an earlier-version
controller, the Protocol Manager displays a popup message and the downloaded profile will set Link to
Profile to HOLD for that controller.
