The following information applies to the : CAL3K-AP , CAL3K-A
The CAL3K has three (+1) operating modes:
| Mode Number | Operation | Set Up |
| Mode 0: | DYNAMIC | Default |
| Mode 1: | ADIABATIC | Default |
| Mode 2: | ISOTHERMAL | Default |
| Mode 3: | EXPERIMENTAL | Operator |
The most popular mode is DYNAMIC because it is fast and accurate. Like all modes it is controlled by the default settings. The default settings were optimized in the factory tests and are somewhat optimal (but not perfect!).
The settings in each mode can be changed via the PC interface. However, at the next: RESET, ABORT, POWER UP
The changes made are replaced by the default settings, except in the EXPERIMENTAL mode. The EXPERIMENTAL mode can be initialized from any other mode by the keyboard command:
| TRANSF.TO EXP.M. | |
  |
TRANSF.TO EXP.M. |
 |
TRANSF.TO EXP.M.=NO |
   |
The ‘Transfer to Experimental’ keyboard command changes the CAL3K experimental set up parameters. It has no effect on the vessel or the operating mode. It avoids typing all parameters and initializes all parameters.
The operating mode can be changed from the keyboard by:
  |
MODE SET 0-3 |
|
MODE SET 0-3 =0=DYN |
 |
If a mode change is affected then the vessel must be re-calibrated. However, when you change back to an already calibrated mode the vessel remembers it and uses the "OLD" calibration data.
