7.5 DEFAULT PULSE MODE
Pulse mode is used for vigorous mixing of samples by rolling with a momentary pause every 30 seconds. Default cycle time set for pulse mode is 30 seconds.
Set required speed and total run time before activating pulse mode to guide the device to start pulse mode operation for that particular speed and total runtime.
Once the speed and total run time are set, press “PULSE” button to start pulse mode operation for that particular speed and total run time.
In pulse mode, pulse LED will glow indicating pulse mode operation is activated.
Example: Speed set to 50 RPM and total run time set to 2 minutes. Pulse mode operation will have a speed of 50 RPM and total run time of 2 minutes. There will be rolling  for 30 seconds (cycle time) with momentary pause in-between and then rolling for 30 seconds (cycle time) for a total of 2 minutes (total runtime).
Press “PULSE” again to stop ongoing pulse mode operation. User can also press “START/ STOP” to stop ongoing pulse mode operation.

7.6 PROGRAMMABLE PULSE MODE
User can also program the pulse mode and set it for alternating times from 30 secs to 90 secs.
First set the required speed and total run time for operation. Then hold down the “PULSE” button to select the cycle time of rolling. The cycle time value will appear on the  right side display, “SEC” will appear in left side display and pulse LED will start blinking indicating that the user can now modify the cycle time. Use increment or decrement  button to modify the cycle time between 30 seconds to 90 seconds. Once the cycle time is modified, it will automatically save after 5 blinks. Press the “PULSE” button once  to start pulse mode operation with the modified cycle time.
Press “PULSE” again to stop pulse mode operation. User can also Press “START /STOP” to stop ongoing pulse mode operation.

7.7 PROGRAM MODE
The program mode operation feature allows the user to save 9 programs which can have different speed and time parameters. Users can use any of these programmed parameters by simply turning on the program mode.
To turn the program mode on, hold down “PROG” untill “Prog on” displays indicating program modeis activated.
After a few seconds, the display will show “P1” and “speed & time value” alternatively. This shows that the current program is P1 with some RPM and time value.

Press the “PROGRAM” button to select any program from “P1 to P9”. Programs can also be selected by pressing “INCREMENT OR DECREMENT” button. Once the desired program is selected, press the “SPEED” button to select and set speed value. Press “TIME” to select and set time value.

Speed and time value for that particular program is now saved. Press the “START” button to start the program mode operation. Once set RPM is reached, the program “Px”  (with x=1to 9) andits “Speed” & “Time” value will display alternatively. 

To stop operation, press “STOP”.

To leave Program mode, hold down the “PROGRAM” button again to turn OFF the Program mode. It willdisplay “Prog off” indicating program mode is off.

NOTE: On every restart, the device automatically comes out of program mode. It shows the last run default speed and time value.
7.8 POWER MODE
The fucntion of this particular feature is that in case of power failure, equipment saves the SPEED, TIME and other details as set by the user. When the power returns, equipment runs for the remaining time left with cycle time of + 5 mins. Equipment saves the runtime every 5 minutes of operation.
To select this feature, long press “TIME” button. Unless and until this feature is not switched on, Tube Roller will not resume its operation after power failure.
Example: User has set RPM of 45, time of 35 mins. After completion of 23 mins, there was power cut and operation comes to a stand still.
