Table 6 – All the Controller's Parameters
PROTECTION OF CONFIGURATION  
The controller provides means for protecting the parameters 
configurations, not allowing modifications to the parameters values, 
avoiding tampering or improper manipulation. 
The parameter Protection  (
PROt
), in the Calibration  level, 
determines the protection strategy, limiting the access to particular 
levels, as shown by the table below.

Table 7 – Levels of Protection for the Configuration 
Access Password: 
The protected levels, when accessed, request the user to provide the 
Access Password  for granting permission  to change the 
configuration of the parameters on these cycles. 
The prompt 
PASS
 precedes the parameters on the protected levels. 
If no password is entered, the parameters of the protected cycles can 
only be visualized. 
The Access Code is defined by the user in the parameter Password 
Change (
PAS.(
), present in the Calibration level. The factory default 
for the password code is 1111. 
Protection of the access code 
The protection system built into the controller blocks for 10 minutes 
the access to protected parameters after 5 consecutive frustrated 
attempts of guessing the correct password. 
Master Password 
The Master Password is intended for allowing the user to define a 
new password in the event of it being forgotten. The Master 
Password  doesn’t grant access to all parameters, only to the 
Password Change parameter (
PAS(
). After defining the new 
password, the protected parameters may be accessed (and 
modified) using this new password. 
The master password is made up by the last three digits of the serial 
number of the controller added to the number 9000. 
As an example, for the equipment with serial number 07154321, the 
master password is 9 3 2 1. 
PROGRAMS OF RAMP AND SOAK 
This feature allows the creation of Ramp and Soak Setpoint Profiles 
(Programs). Up to 20 different profiles with 9 segments each can 
be programmed. Longer profiles of up to 180 segments can be 
created by linking 2 or more profiles together. 
The figure below displays a profile model: 
Figure 8 - Example of a Ramp and Roak.  
Once a profile is defined and selected for execution (parameter 
EPr
in the operating level), the controller starts to generate the SP profile 
automatically in accordance with the elaborated program. 
To execute a profile with fewer segments just program 0 (zero) for 
the time intervals that follow the last segment to be executed.
