6 Self-test
When the controller is switched on, it runs a system test.
• Display test
The version number of the software will appear on the screen for around one second.
Please have this number ready in the event of any support queries.
• Sensor test
A temperature sensor check is done to determine whether a sensor is attached and if
so, to ensure it is isolated from the mains.
If no sensor is found or the sensor is giving an error message, the display will show the
status “Error” followed by “Sensor”.
If this error is displayed, please check the sensor and ensure it is attached correctly. The
error message will disappear as soon as the controller finds a correctly attached sensor.
• Buzzer test
The acoustic alarm is activated for one second.
The first time the controller is switched on or following a software update, the error mes-
sage ‘Learn’ will be displayed after the self-test.
This indicates that the controller has not yet learned the oven characteristics and is not
ready for operation. A learn cycle must be carried out.

Please note that specific characteristics must be set for every oven type. In general, the
following capacity limits apply for reflow ovens:
Europe: 220..240 V~ / 8 A, 50 Hz
USA: 110 V~ / 15 A, 60 Hz
Maximum power consumption: 1500 W
Higher oven capacity than the above is not supported and will destroy the controller.
