Glazes and slow cooling Cone 6 glazes are really hot now. In order to make
these glazes work it is neccessary to control the cooling side of your firing
program. Did you know that if your KilnMaster kiln is less than 4 years
old you have the ability to link a controlled cooling program to a ConeFire
Mode Program? You may be asking yourself why would I want to do this, can't
I just write a Ramp an Hold Program? The main reason you would want to use
this feature is that ConeFire Mode does all of the cone correlation calculations
for you. If the kiln is firing slow Cone Fire Mode automatically adjusts
the peak temperature down so you get a perfect cone bend (heat work) before
you begin your controlled cooling ramps.
Use the instructions below to link the 2 programs together. After you link them press Review. The Review will show the ConeFire program but will not show the segments listed in program # 6. If the programs are linked it will display "16-S" after the ConeFire Program. At this point you can run the program. There is one rule that you must adhere to when using this feature. The 1st segment in program #6 will not be recognized therefore you must design your cooling program with segment 2. Just enter any data for segment 1. 1) Write a 2 to 7 segment program and enter it into
the USER 6 program slot. (Remember the 1st segment will not be recognized)
