finish the garage stage early

[wendy j]

Hi there,  Ive got the kiln programed now,  I had set it to garage for 6 mins instead of 6 hours .  now I cant get it to skip to the annealing stage,  its an SC2.  I have pressed the up button to get SStP to show, and then press start,  but it says hold for a minute or so and then goes back to where it was before,   any ideas on what Im doing wrong please?
Thanks

You're almost there - just need to press Start again.

So from your garaging segment:

Press the Up arrow - SStP shows

Press Start - the number of the current garaging segment shows (HLd x, where x is whatever your garaging segment number is - mine says HLd 2)

Press Start again - this will skip the rest of the garaging segment and start the ramp to the annealing segment - you should see the temperature start to change so you'll know it's worked

Hope this helps

When I ask DH to skip the kiln for me, (cat sitting comfortably on my lap) I keep it simple and say"press middle button once, left hand one twice)
