Orton controller - how do I skip a step?

snootyvixen · #1 2006-12-17, 2:59pm

I have a JenKen kiln w. an Orton controller - the instructions for programming it came with it, and are from Flame Tree.

I just set up my studio at home (YAY! No more batch annealing!) and I used the program that allows me to work for a certain # of hours, then it goes into the rest of the annealing schedule after the set time.

My question is, if I don't work as long as I expected to, how do I skip to the next step? (That would be the 30 min hold at 940).

Thanks!

If it's the Sentry one, you press "higher" twice to skip. Hope that helps a bit!

If it's the one I have, you hit "increase" and it comes up "sstp" on the display. Hit "enter" and it shows you the segment it is on - hit it again and it skips the step.

Thank you, Mary and Squid! It worked - now I just have to remember it for next time! LOL!
