5.7.7. Process
This dialog box can be opened under OPTIONS Æ Misc. Æ
Process. It is used to preset the type of process (see chapter 3).
The mimic diagram of the unit changes accordingly. If process B is
selected, the phase Manual freezing is no longer available
since the product is frozen outside the unit (e.g. in a deep-freeze).
The phase Manual cooling IC + warm-up VP is still
available in process B since it is used mainly to warm-up the
vacuum pump and to precool the ice condenser.
