• Speed of air fan, from 10% to 100% of full speed (slider Fan).
• Profile of salt dispensing, from 0% to 100% of full capacity (equalizer Profile).
  Duration of therapy set by slider Time is divided in ten equal time intervals. Each slider belongs to one of this ten time intervals. It is possible to set speed of salt dispensing in each of ten intervals independently.

After change of some of the parameters, it is necessary to send new values to halogenerator ( button Set ).

Each set of parameters can be stored in one of nine program memories or recalled from one of nine program memories (slider Prog.).

If there is need for more than nine programs, it is possible to save current program settings (parameters only, not program number) in file on computer disk, under name you prefer. Also, it is possible to load saved program settings from computer disk to any of nine programs in halogenerator.

Picture 13.2

Line Flash status can have three values 0, 1 or 2. There are multiple copies of statistics data in not volatile flash memory. If Flash status is 0, all memory banks are OK. If Flash status is 1, one of memory banks is bad, but statistic can be recovered. If Flash status is 2, all memory banks are bad, statistics data are not stored properly and electronics board must be replaced.

Frame Session counts contain data about number of elapsed sessions of specific duration. Duration of sessions is divided in intervals of 5 minutes long. Number next to duration is count of elapsed sessions of that duration. Counts can only advance and there is no mean to reset counters or to set their value to some specific value. Session counters works like domestic electricity or gas consumption meter, except there is not one but 20 counters for 20 different time intervals.

Here is an example how counters work. Suppose at some moment of time counter for interval 20-25 minutes has value 17 and counter for interval 45-50 minutes has value 123. Suppose after that moment user conducted 7 session 22 minutes long and 15 sessions 48 minutes long. New values of mentioned counters will be 24 (20-25 minutes) and 138 (40-45 minutes).

This way it is possible to know number of sessions of specific duration and total work time of halogenerator since moment of production.

If user calculates difference of present counter values and values recorded in some past time moment, he will get number of performed session between that past moment and present time.
