    KCR1

    Configuration Guide
    To enter configuration mode perform the following actions
    • Turn the KCR1 off
    • Press and hold down the X„ key
    • Turn the KCR1 on but keep the X„ key pressed down
    • Wait until the thermocouple type is displayed then release the X„ key.

    To change the configuration it is important to fully follow the sequence below by pressing the X„ key the
    required number of times until the instrument re-boots (8888 shows on the display). Just skip over any
    configuration item that you do not wish to change by accepting the current value with the X„ key.

    If there is a delay of more than 15 seconds between key presses then the instrument will assume that
    configuration mode has been entered accidently and it will time out and re-boot without saving any
    configuration changes.

    The currently configured thermocouple type letter will flash. This can be altered with
    the S & T keys to R,S,K or N type (rSKn).
    Press the X„ key.

    The maximum allowable kiln temperature is now displayed. This can be altered with
    the S & T keys. Press the X„ key.

    The currently configured kiln power rating in kW is now displayed. This can be altered
    with the S & T keys. Press the X„ key.

    The maximum firing hours limit is now displayed. This can be altered with the S & T
    keys in the range 10 to 999 hours or disabled (---) . If this limit is exceeded the
    controller will show Err6. Press the X„ key.

    The ambient temperature trip level is now displayed. This can be altered with the S &
    T keys in the range 30°C to 70°C or disabled (At.--). If this temperature is exceeded
    the controller will show Err7. Press the X„ key.

    Error 1 (heating failure) message status is now displayed. This can be altered with
    the S & T keys. E1. 1 indicates that error 1 is enabled. E1. 0 indicates that error 1
    is disabled. Press the X„ key.

    Error 4 (relay welded) message status is now displayed. This can be altered with the
    S & T keys. E4. 1 indicates that error 4 is enabled. E4. 0 indicates that error 4 is
    disabled. Press the X„ key.

    Error 5 (overshoot limit exceeded) message status is now displayed. This can be al-
    tered with the S & T keys to E5.10 (10°C), E5.20 (20°C), E5.30 (30°C), E5.40 (40°C),
    E5.50 (50°C) or E5.-- (disabled). Press the X„ key.

    Power failure handling status is now displayed. This can be altered with the S & T
    keys. PF. 1 indicates that power failure recovery is enabled. PF. 0 indicates that
    power failure recovery is disabled. Press the X„ key.

    Continued overleaf...
    The lock-up on error facility described below is used to prevent the clearing of errors by cycling the power to
    the instrument - to force an engineer call-out. Errors are cleared by entering this configuration mode.

    Lock-up on error status is now displayed. This can be altered with the S & T keys.
    LE. 1 indicates that lock-up on error is enabled. LE. 0 indicates that lock-up on error
    is disabled. Press the X„ key.

    The PID menu is now displayed. To review or change PID settings press the S or T
    keys. Only enter the PID menu if you know what you are doing! To skip PID set-
    ting press the X„ key.

    Pressing the START/STOP key causes the instrument to store the configuration data and then leave configu-
    ration mode by resetting itself without changing PID values.

    If the X„ key is pressed when this menu is shown then the factory default values for
    PID will be reloaded. The default values are P: 55°C, I: 200 seconds, D: 10 seconds.

    Pressing the X„ key causes the instrument to reload the factory default values for PID, store the configuration
    data and then leave configuration mode by resetting itself.

    If the X„ key is pressed when this menu is shown then the menu for reviewing or
    changing P (the proportional band) is shown:-

    To change the proportional band use the S or T keys. The factory default value for
    the proportional band is 55°C. It can be changed in the range 1°C to 999°C. To
    change I (the integral time) press the X„ key:-

    To change the integral time use the S or T keys. The factory default value for the
    integral time is 200 seconds. It can be changed in the range 10 seconds to 999 sec-
    onds. To disable the integral term press the T key when I=10 to select I=0. To
    change D (the derivative time) press the X„ key:-
    To change the derivative time use the S or T keys. The factory default value for the
    derivative time is 10 seconds. It can be changed in the range 0 seconds (disabled) to
    999 seconds. To exit the configuration setting press the X„ key.

    The instrument will now store the new PID data, store the configuration data and then leave configuration
    mode by resetting itself.
