Screen 4: Cycle Count
The second screen shows the number of cycles which the Q-Series
ultrasonic bath has run since new.
The cycle count shows all cycles which the bath has begun and includes
those cycles which are not completed, i.e., those cycles aborted by the
operator or because the liquid level was low.
Screen 5: Low power
In its factory pre-set mode, the Q-Series ultrasonic bath will maintain the set
liquid temperature. This means that it is consuming power when sitting idle,
i.e., when the sonics are not running.
The Q-Series can be set to save power when not in use.
Setting Low Power to ON means that after five minutes of inactivity, the Q-
Series ultrasonic bath will enter its SLEEP mode – the screen illumination will
power down, and the internal water heater will not operate.
The Q-Series ultrasonic bath uses less than 10Watts of power whilst in SLEEP
mode.
By setting Low Power to OFF, the Q-Series screen will maintain the set liquid
temperature, i.e., when the liquid temperature falls below the specified
setting, the heaters will automatically switch on, meaning the bath is
immediately ready for use when required.
When the desired option is selected, use the MENU key to move to the
next screen.
