1.3.8 Shut down the power switch (see chap5).

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE FRONT PANEL.

2.1 General

The MS8-36 and MS8062 CONTROLLER‘s front panel is a "friendly" system which was designed

according to the latest human engineering principles.

It is divided for your convenience into three areas:

Process Legends -- for graphical explanation of the process parameters.

Main display -- for displaying of process data and messages.

Keyboard -- for data entering and operating functions.

2.2 Process legends.

2.2.1 The Process Legends - are used for graphical explanation of the heating and cooling process

parameters, described as a curve with milestones like R , T ., H.

2.2.2 Process legends:

Each firing cycle program is build from programmable number of stages (1-8).

Each stage defined by:

R - HEAT RATE (c/min).

T - TEMPERATURE (c) set point.

H - SOAK TIME (min) period.

Except stages information, additional data must be programmed:


6

H End - total time from START to END (max 99 hours).

CONT / IMED- firing cycle termination mode: (programs 1-9 are permanently programmed as

continuous; 10-15 are User programmable for CONT or IMED).

CONT = CONTINUOUS, i.e. keeping the final temperature after firing cycle completion.

IMED = IMMEDIATE, i.e. shut off the heating at cycle end.


7

2.3 THE MAIN DISPLAY.

The main display consists of 10 alphanumeric characters. It is used to display different messages and

the HEAT ON condition.

Following is the summary of all the possible display messages:

2.4 The keyboard.

2.4.1 The keyboard section includes 9 key-pads, functionally divided into two groups:

PROGRAMMING KEYS:

Used to decrease programmed values.

Used to increase programmed values.

Used to start programming and to confirm parameters for memory entry.

FUNCTIONS KEYS:

Starts firing cycle.

STOP Stops firing cycle.

Starts END CYCLE DATE programming .

Initiates PROGRAM and STAGE NUMBER select .

Starts CALENDAR updating.

Buzzer off, cancels audible alarm.

3. PROGRAMMING THE PROCESS PARAMETERS.

While programming, the display always shows the name of the current parameter and it's blinking

value. In those cases, when the displayed value is not blinking, it can not be changed and is shown

for information only.

3.1 Setting the program number and number of stages in the selected program.

3.1.1 Shortened description:


01

3.1.2 Detailed description:

Press (PROGRAM N0). The MAIN DISPLAY will show current program number.

Press (+) or (-) to reach the desired value.

Press (ENTER) to confirm the value. The MAIN DISPLAY will show STAGES 01-08

Press (+) or (-) to select the desired number of stages for just selected program.

Please note that programs 0-9 are set by the factory to be "CONTINUOUS". Other programs have

programmable CONTINUOUS or IMMEDIATE firing cycle termination. (See also sec 3.3, entering

"CONTINUOS" or “IMMEDIATE" cycle).

3.2 Entering the process parameters.


no yes STOP


Press (ENTER) in order to start programming sequence for selected program.

The MAIN DISPLAY will show current R1 value.

If you are satisfied with the existing value, just press (ENTER.), otherwise, press (+) or

(-) to reach it, and then press (ENTER). Continue to program until last parameter will be

entered, then press STOP( STOP).

Please check that programming is completed i.e. the MAIN DISPLAY shows actual temperature and

time.

LAST?


00

There are two possible combinations of program sequences:

PROGRAMS 0-9: R1-T1-H1-.R2-T2-H2-R3-T3-H3-.......H-En d

PROGRAMS 10-15: R1-T1-H1.-R2-T2-H2-R3-T3-H3-......... H-End, CONT/IMED

In the case you wish to change only one parameter, you may reach it by pressing ( ENTER ),

until the main display will show its name. Then use (+) or (-) keys to change the value.

Return to idle by pressing ST0P (STOP).

NOTE for multi-stage programs, to save time you can press the ENTER pad few seconds, then the

display will advance automatically to further stages.

3.3 Entering "CONTINUOUS" or "IMMEDIATE" cycle.


Reach the last parameter in programs 10-15.

The display will show CYCLE CONT or CYCLE IMED.

Press (+) for CONTINUOS mode, or (-) for IMMEDIATE mode, and confirm by

pressing (ENTER).


There are two modes of firing cycle termination:

In the "CONTINUOS" mode, the furnace will maintain it's final temperature, after completion of the

cycle. Then it can be stopped manually by pressing STOP (STOP), or by switching Power OFF.

Programs 1-9 are by factory set to "continuos", other is programmable.

In the "IMMEDIATE" mode, the heating process is terminated immediately after cycle and the STOP

state is entered automatically.

To program CONT or IMED, see 3.3.1 (this page).

3.4 Setting cooling process parameters.

3.4.1 The design of the MS8-36 CONTROLLER software enables you to program a controlled

COOLING RATE. You may cool down the furnace to any required temperature and then heat it up

again.

3.4.2 “Cooling” means that the temperature is programmed to decrease with a defined rate. If the

programmed rate is faster then the natural temperature decrease of the furnace, then of course the

cooling will take more time than programmed.

3.4.3 To program cooling, set the temperature of the next stage to be lower then the current stage.

In this case R (the rate c/min) will be automatically taken as negative.


02

4. PROGRAMMING THE TIME PARAMETERS.

4.1 Updating the calendar.


no yes STOP


This procedure adjusts the DATE and TIME inside the MS8-36 and MS8-62 CONTROLLER to current

date and time. This is necessary when END CYCLE DATE attempted to be used.

To adjust the DATE and TIME, please press (CALENDAR).

The MAIN DISPLAY will show "ADJ DAY" label and its value.

If the date is incorrect, please adjust it using (+), or (-) pads.

When the required value is reached, press (ENTER).

Repeat the same procedure for HOURS, MINUTES, MONTHS and YEARS.

Finally the MAIN DISPLAY will return to ordinary STOP state showing updated time.

Remember, that YEARS are displayed in shortened form, i.e. only two last digits are shown (for year

1999 adjusts to 99, for 2000 adjust to 00).

LAST?


03

4.2 Programming the END CYCLE TIME.


no yes STOP


4.2.2.1 For your convenience, the total cycle time (total firing cycle time) can be programmed in one of

two ways:

By programming H End, using the procedure already described. (See 2.3.1). In this mode the value

H End is the required time period from pressing the (START) pad up to FIRING CYCLE end.

By setting the END CYCLE DATE. In this mode, you specify the day and the time you wish the

FIRING CYCLE will be complete. The MS8-36 and MS8-62 CONTROLLER will compute all the

necessary data, from pressing the START pad up to cycle termination.

The main difference between these two modes is that H End period is stored in the memory and can be

used again and again, but END CYCLE DATE can be used only once for the same setting.

4.2.2.2 To program the END CYCLE DATE, please do:

Check that the CALENDAR (actual) date and time is updated (see 4.1).

Press the (END CYCLE DATE) pad. The MAIN DISPLAY will show "SET DAY" message

and its value. Please use (+), or (-) pads to change the required day.

When required day is reached, please confirm by pressing (ENTER).

Repeat the same procedure for HOURS and MINUTES (at least one value must be changed,

otherwise the data will not be accepted).

Check that after last ENTER, the MAIN DISPLAY returns to STOP mode and shows special mark ^ in

between temperature and time. This mark ^ acknowledges that END CYCLE DATE is set. It means that

when START will be given, the cycle completion will be according to the END CYCLE DATE, just set.

(If this mark is not shown in the STOP state, it means that the firing cycle will complete accordingly to

the H End parameter).

To cancel the programmed timer mode (^ displayed), press START , and after a second, press

STOP (Another way to do this: just switch Power Off).

LAST?

5. OPERATING THE FIRING CYCLE

5.1 Selecting and observing the program number.

5.1.1 Before starting the firing cycle, please check and set (if required) the program number and

number of stages (see SETTING THE PROGRAM NUMBER).

The PROGRAM NUMBER (and number of stages) can be changed only in the STOP state, but can be

observed also during the firing cycle.

5.2 Starting the firing cycle.

5.2.1 Press (START) pad. The MS8-36 and MS8-62 CONTROLLER will respond by short

BEEP.

The MAIN DISPLAY will show the actual temperature and the value of the actual TIME will

interchange with REMAINING TIME, i.e. the time remained to the cycle end. (The remaining time is

periodically computed and displayed during the firing process).

Once you started the cycle - the furnace will heat up accurately and precisely according to the program

you have set, until reaching its end.

The rotating bar in the center of the MAIN DISPLAY will show that the firing cycle is running.

5.3 Observing process parameters during the firing cycle run.

5.3.1 Press (ENTER). The MAIN DISPLAY will show the STAGE NUMBER (see 2.3.14).

Continue to press (ENTER). With each new pressing, the MAIN DISPLAY will show the next

programmed parameter.

If for a few seconds no key will be pressed then the firing “on” message will be returned automatically.

5.4 Cycle completion

In the CONTINUOS mode:

After reaching the end of a cycle the MS8-36 and MS8-62 CONTROLLER will keep the furnace at the

final temperature. In this case, the MAIN DISPLAY will show actual temperature and the END message

including two rotating bars.

The alarm will buzz for about 60 seconds. After 5 and 10 minutes, it will buzz again. You can stop it

pressing (BUZZER OFF).

In IMMEDIATE mode:

After reaching the end of a cycle the MS8-36 and MS8-62 CONTROLLER will automatically stop the

heating process and enter STOP state.


05

5.5 The override.

5.5.1 The shortened description:

Check that you are in the final stage, or in END CYCLE mode ( END).

Press ENTER; observe that temperature parameter is shown.

Using (+), or (-), to increase or decrease the actual temperature and press

(ENTER). If you wish to change the last soak time, plse change it as required.

Remember that these changes are temporary and are valid only for the current firing process.


5.5.2.1 The controller can be directed to change the actual temperature and soak time of the final part of

firing process.

This can be useful in cases when you didn't achieve the required results with the preprogrammed values,

or in any other applications, for example if you wish to cast two different metals in a single firing cycle.

5.5.2.2 In order to set the new values of T or H while furnace is in operation, just press

(ENTER):

The main display will show the current STAGE NUMBER.

If according the stage number you are in the final stage, press (ENTER) again. If now the

display shows temperature or time, you can program new values using (+), or (-) to

reach desired value and press (ENTER) to confirm.

(See programming).

5.5.2.3 These new values will be valid for the current firing cycle only and are not stored for further

cycles.

5.6 Power break during firing cycle.

5.6.1 In the case of power failure during firing cycle, the MS8-36 and MS8-62 CONTROLLER will

recover the latest working parameters and resume automatically the program operation. (In the final

"END CYCLE" state, any power brake will terminate heating process and enter the stop state).

5.7 Stopping firing cycle.

To stop the firing cycle at any time, press STOP (STOP), until short beep will be heard, and

MAIN DISPLAY will show the idle state.

Remember: if the cycle is not completed, you must STOP it before shutting down the MAIN POWER

SWITCH of the furnace, otherwise the program will be resumed after POWER ON.


06

6. FAULT AND ERROR MESSAGES.

6.1 Faulty conditions.

In case of faulty conditions, the MS8-36 and MS8-62 CONTROLLER will warn you, by activating

audible alarm, and displaying the error message.

The alarm can be stopped by pressing (BUZZER OFF), but the error message will remain until

(STOP) key will be pressed.

6.2 Fault messages

The following are the fault messages:

NO CURRENT- the current circuit is open. The reasons for this can be: heating elements burned, the

safety micro-switch is damaged or the door is opened when START was pressed.

TC BREAK - thermocouple break. The temperature sensing elements (located on the back of a muffle)

are burned or the TC plug is disconnected.

DATE ERROR - the END CYCLE DATE exceeds the 99 hour range (compared to the calendar date of

the MS8-CONTROLLER), or the last day of a month is incorrect. This message occurs when

(START) is pressed and incorrect END CYCLE DATE programmed (for example: 30 of February).

TEMP FAULT -temperature fault: the temperature sensing is abnormal mainly as a consequence of

shorted or unproperely installed thermocouple (for example: the + and the - are interchanged).

OVER TEMP - over temperature condition: the temperature in the muffle exceeded maximum limit

because of a fault.

EE ERROR - data corrupted. Reprogram current parameters.

11. Instructions for personal safety of MS8-36 and MS8-62 users.

CAUTION!!! VERY IMPORTANT: IN ANY CASE OF THE ASSEMBLY

/DISASSEMBLY OF THE CONTROL PANEL (OR OTHER MODULES OF THE

FURNACE) , DISCONNECT FIRST THE AC POWER SOURCE.

Industrial furnaces provide compliance with internationally accepted Safety Regulations prior of being

licensed as a marketable item. As a consequence, modern industrial furnaces are highly reliable and safe

machines.

Nevertheless, operator's misuse of such furnaces may bring about some hazards:

It may cause burns on limbs due to the OPERATOR if not using proper tweezers or breaching one or more

of the most basic self preservation work rules.

It may expose the OPERATOR to electric shock if routine electrical and mechanical checks were not

performed on it.

It might start a fire if combustible materials are held in close proximity to the furnace door or walls.

Care should be taken to secure the furnace-door, in one of its two stable positions, during materials

handling.

The furnace should be placed on a fireproof topped, mechanically stable, table. The table should be

placed alongside a power receptacle carrying wall, the furnace back-panel towards that wall. The furnace

power ON/OFF switch must be always accessible

to the user.

The operator should approach the furnace from the front-door side only, up to a distance of 30 / 35 cm

from that door and have useable table areas to the left and right of the furnace, NOT in front of the

furnace.

No combustible materials or liquids should be stored within 1 meter, at least, from the furnace. Before

placing any unfamiliar material inside the furnace, the operator should validate the material’s flammability

ratings.

Cleaning:

a) Turn off the furnace from the main switch (located on the rear panel.

b) Disconnect the furnace from the electricity. In case the furnace's surface is

hot – leave it unplugged until the furnace would cool down completely.

c) Clean the furnace using dry cloth only.

d) DO NOT clean the furnace using any cleaning agents, but dry cloth

only.
