Looping
Intervals
Looping means that intervals within a Program may
be repeated 1 to 9999 times. If a loop is inserted in
the program shown in Figure 5.1, so that intervals 4,
5 and 6 will be repeated 2 times in addition to the
single Program run of these intervals, the final
profile would look Figure 5.3.

Guaranteed
Soak
This Ramp/Soak feature of the 2104, when enabled,
assures that the “soaking” time in a “soak” interval
does not begin until the process reaches setpoint or
is within the guaranteed soak differential band. A
soak interval has the same setpoint at the beginning
and end of the interval.

Guaranteed Soak is enabled on the RSPG PAGE by
setting the differential band to a value greater
than 0. It is adjustable from 1°F to the sensor span.
