Chapter 4 Operation
1. Temperature and time setting
a) Press the On/Off switch to power on the
instrument. The instrument performs a self
test followed by an alarm to signal that the
product is ready for use.
b) After about 3 seconds, the temperature will
automatically increase to the most recent
setting. The values shown on the display
are actual settings (real time temperature and
time remaining.) The example shows an
actual temperature of 28.5°C and 35 minutes
remaining.
c) To adjust the set temperature, press or
keys until the desired temperature (Ex. 55.5) is
showing on the display. After 5 seconds, this
temperature is stored and the instrumnent will
begin heating.
d) To set the tim e, Press the “Mode” key, the
displayed time begins flashing, press or
keys to set the desired time (ex 1 hour and 20
minutes). After 5 seconds the desired time is
stored.
NOTE: The timer will not begin unless the
“S tart/S to p” b u tton has been p ressed

2. Timer Operation (Advanced)
The default setting of the instrument is designed so that the heater will continue to
hold the set tem perature even once tim e has expired and “oVEr” is show ing on the
time display. This setting can be adjusted so that the heater will shut down once

TemperatureCalibration
The temperature of the instrument has been calibrated prior to shipment from the
factory. However, in the event that an adjustemnt to the calibration is required, the
user can adjust the calibration with either a thermometer/thermocouple.
Caution: the instrument uses double temperatures adjustment to ensure accuracy over
a wide range of temperature. It is linearly adjusted at both 40° and 100°C.
3.1. Calibration with a thermometer, Block A:
a) Power on the machine and ensure that the temperature on the display is less than
35°C.
b) Inject olefin oil into one of the cone-shaped wells, and then put a
thermometer/thermocouple into this well (make sure that the precision of the
thermometer should be within 0.1 and the temperature ball should be absolutely
immerged into the cone-shaped well). See Fig a.
c) Press “M ode” key w ithout releasing, then press key
at the same time and hold for 3 seconds, it will enter into
the temperature calibration interface, see the right.
At this point, “ ” displayed, which indicates entering
into temperature calibration program. The temperature

When the temperature reaches to 40° and is able to hold
a constant temperature, the decimal digit begins to flicker.
After 20 minutes, the user can read the value on the
Thermometer and use the up and down keys to enter the
value of the thermometer.
Notes: Please read the actual value after 20 m inutes’ constant
temperature to ensure the calibration accuracy.

d) Then the instruments will the automatically begin to heat to 100 . Once 100C is
reched and held as constact, the decimal begins to flicker. After 20 minutes, the
user can read the actual value from thermometer.
Notes: Please read the actual value after 20 m inutes’ constant tem perature to ensure
the calibration accuracy.
