AOP1, AOP2 /Auxiliary Outlets
Select Vent Fan or Alarm for the Auxiliary Outputs
The optional AOP1 and AOP2 (Auxiliary Outputs) are
for electrical receptacles mounted in the kiln’s switch box.

option that might not be included on your kiln.)

RATE/TypesofRates
Note: This feature is included on controllers with
software version 18D or newer. To look up your soft
-
ware version, see the SOFT option, page 18.
The standard method of programming firing rate is
degrees of temperature change per HOUR. At the factory,
wecan set up yourcontroller to calculate rate insteadas de
-
grees of temperature change per MINUTE, or as
ELAPSED TIME needed to reach a temperature. The
RATE option shows you which method your controller
uses:
From ,press repeatedly until
appears.
Press . You will see one of the following:
(Degrees of temperature change per hour)
(Degrees of temperature change per minute)
(Elapsed time needed to reach a temperature)
Only the factory can change the type of rate used in your
controller.
Note: If your controller uses TIME rate, enter the
hours/minutes that each segment will take to reach its
target temperature. (Example: 1 hour, 30 minutes =
01.30.)
COST / Electric Cost Per
Kilowatt-Hour
Note: This feature is included on controllers with
software version 18D or newer. To look up your soft
-
ware version, see the SOFT option, page 18.
The controller can figure the cost of a firing if you enter
the cost of electricity for your area (and kiln wattage—see
next option). The cost of electricity is figured in kilo
-
watt-hours (KWh). A kilowatt-hour is 1,000 watts of elec
-
tricity running for 1 hour. (10 – 100-watt light bulbs glow
-
ing for one hour consume 1 KWh of electricity.)
To find what the power company charges you for a kilo-
watt-hour, look at your electric bill, call your power com-
pany, or visit their website. The electric rate may vary de-
pending on the time of year and amount of electricity you
use. In the summer, rates in some areas are higher. Also,
add the other costs listed on your electric bill, such as
power transmission charges, taxes, etc.
From ,press repeatedly until
appears. Press .
From an electric bill, enter the cost of a kilo
-
watt-hour. Place cents to the right of the decimal.
Round off fractions. (Example: Enter 9.25 cents
per kilowatt-hour as 00.09.) Press
.
Press to return to .
Note: You can enter the cost in U. S., Canadian, or
Euro cents, British pence, Indian paisas, or any other
money system that is based upon 100 units (i.e. 100
cents = 1 dollar.) If your system is based upon 1000
units, such as the Libyan dirham, the Oman baiza, or
the Kuwait fil, divide the cost by 10. Example: Enter
140 as 00.14. Then multiply by 10 the cost of a firing
shown in the controller display.
KW / Kilowatts Used to
Calculate Firing Cost
Note: This feature is included on controllers with
software version 18D or newer. To look up your soft
-
ware version, see the SOFT option, page 18.
To figure the cost to fire your kiln, the controller needs
to know how many kilowatts your kiln uses. Look at your
