5.1.5 The Service functions menu
• There is a button for each paraffin bath and for the paraffin station. The time
(in minutes) until the paraffin has melted enough so that it can be used in a
program step is shown next to each button.
• A program can already be started before that time – the program then extends
its delay step until the paraffin has melted enough to be used when the paraffin
step is reached.
• The time until the paraffin is fully melted as determined by the instrument
can be corrected by selecting the PARAFFIN BATH MELTING TIME button.
This function should normally only be used to increase the melting time, e.g.
if paraffin pellets have been added to a bath by hand.
• When the button is enabled, a window opens in which the value can be
changed.
