Congratulations on your purchase of your new RapidFire Pro-LP, proudly made in the U.S.A.
Here is a quick video on how to program the unit. You will want to do this is a very well-ventilated area, preferably outside. We show you how to set up a turn-off program to start, an important first step.
Please note: the unit will start to smoke once you start the burnout procedure (this is perfectly normal), which is why we prefer you do this outside.
**The unit will turn black on the inside, which is also perfectly normal. After a few uses, it will turn back to white.**
If you are thinking about buying the RapidFire Pro-LP and have not done so yet, you can see our demonstration video here:

Thank You, Thank You! It’s been a yr since I used my kiln & needed a refresher. Great detail. Thanks Again🙏
This is a great tutorial to program the Auber PID with ramp soak features. Good to see this posted!
Hey thanks for the instruction, Auber should be grateful.
You do a fantastic job of explaining how to enter temp & time parameters.
Thanks for your help.
Thanks for the tutorial.
My tabletop kiln slightly different from your make but this video has saved me so much time helped me so so much thank you!! Keep posting them!
Great tutorial, thanks!
I just ordered this burnout oven and the 100oz quickmelt Pro melting furnace. I am looking forward to using them.
This video is excellent in both instruction and entertainment!
The line where you gave the mind-trigger that C=temperature as in C is Celsius... but that all this kiln works in is Fahrenheit was positively Golden! 🤣
Great tutorial video. You rock!
Thank you
I’m doing my
First burn out wish me luck thanks for your help
Thank you so much
I do use this furnace on HOLD on my only temp 495F I use and it always works nicely, no pressing of anything just the switch ON/OFF
Thank yall so much for this video. The instructions were confusing as hell. I would just recommend adding a QR code to the instructions to this video. I bout mine on Amazon so I would add it to the Amazon listing too. Awesome video.
Opened mine today
Well I will try again.
Awsome easy ......
Nice and clear video, however; that programming of these pid controllers still need a instruction video in 2021 while you only set a handful of values, goes to show that these controllers are waaaay outdated.
We live in a time of Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and smwartphones. A simple connection to a piece of software or app on a phone that lets you drag a graph with less then 10 clicks on a screen should be no problem in this day of age.
my furnace pro whatever came with 4 white cubes do i throw those in there during the programing
During step one (on a burnout, not this process) I changed the temp of step two, and the temperature keeps increasing above the temperature I changed it to. Already 10degrees higher in about 5 minutes.
How would I get the heat up to 2200 degrees? I need to fire my ceramics but this video only shows it going up to 1700 degrees.
Do I do the initial burn with the other ceramic pieces that came in the box as well or without those.
can i use this one for ceramic firing ? the others two said is not recomended but i can't find anything on the site a pbout this one😊
Is there a video for the. Other ones mines flashing zeros on top ain't even used it
Can someone send me an example to run a program for silver 1650 2 hours and a bronze 2 step fire process 1- 800 degrees 30 min then buried in carbon 1650 3 hours?
If I bought a used one from you guys do I still need to season it?
How long does the standard Burnout cycle take?
I’m using yudian pid controller can u help me to program the inside program table
I have the newer PDI controller and this feels almost useless. Still cant figure out how to use my unit, as it changed from the one in this video. any chance you could make a new video ?
I love how you make sure to blather on about navigating the menu between each step so that it times out before you can move to the next one. JFHC.
How about watching it once first - you sound like a child.
He showed you how to delay the time out, genius. Watch it again.
@@f8ofk8 Introduction
Overview
Tab A to Slot B
Review and Inspection
From Netscape to ATT to Boeing and then to Daimler. This is what I did. Retired at 57. Now I make jewelry, travel and fish. It's great to know how to delay time out, however your DIRECTIONS are a subset of INSTRUCTIONS. DIRECTIONS should, ideally, not require a time out for each step. He knows it's going to time out before he gets to the next step, yet keeps inserting overview that should have been covered in the overview. Do you want to have to refer back to chapter 1 every other paragraph you read in a novel? He posted it as an expert and I can shit on it as an expert. Not personal.
I need help setting mines. I have to do mines as 300 for 1hr 700 for 1hr and 1200 for 2hrs or 1hr. Then -121 as hold. The -121 doesn’t hold, it keep going and I damaged a lot of jewelries.
At c5 is the temp still set at 1700 deg and not 0?
How do I get the fan to come on???
Would this be good for annealing glass? Such as pendants, pipes, and water pipes?
Yes, It works great for annealing. Just be sure the working area is large enough for your projects.
@@Pmcsupplies Hey, I've done this and now I'm ready to fire some test pots. Could you post a quick comment detailing how many steps and what temperatures please?
I bought one did anyone have a loose latch that closes to door?
So i am about to try and add a second program behind the primary one. Not sure how to add or run a secondary program. I am also going to seal the door to try and control the 25 degree flux i am getting in the program. When running i can see all around the door the glow of the elements. Please any comments are appreciated.
@ra Kessler If you have any questions or need further assistiance with your kiln please contact us 518-249-6533 Monday - Friday 9AM - 5PM EST. We are happy to help with any questions you may have with using your Tabletop Kiln.
Thanks!
Well i placed 2 distinct programs but no one has been able to tell me how do you start program B and not program A.
How, and what do I program it at to fire a small clay pot?
can i use this machine for investment casting burnout and pottery firing?
@Maxell, This unit is not recommended for burnouts but we do make a programmable version that is here: pmcsupplies.com/programmable-tabletop-hi-temp-2200-f-electric-burnout-oven-kiln-for-3d-pla-resin-and-carvable-wax.html If you have any questions or need further assistance with purchasing a kiln please contact us 518-249-6533 Monday - Friday 9AM - 5PM EST. We are happy to help with any questions you may have with using your Tabletop Kiln.
Thanks!
I have a Rapidfire PRO-LP from you. Burnout of the oven and the first 4 castings have gone well. When I now put on the program again, the PV red temperature suddenly rose immediately, while the SV green temperature goes slowly upwards. Then the oven will not burn. Anyone? Can you reset the machine
Dear Trond, Please note our Rapid-fire PRO-LP is not suitable for wax burnouts. Its most likely that your thermocouple has failed due to not using the correct kiln for this application. We recommend only using our Hi - Temp models for burnout applications per the warning sheets and instructions that come with your kiln: pmcsupplies.com/programmable-tabletop-hi-temp-2200-f-electric-burnout-oven-kiln-for-3d-pla-resin-and-carvable-wax.html
Please contact us 518-249-6533 Monday - Friday 9am - 5pm EST so we can get your kiln upgraded to use for wax burnouts and back in working condition.
I just bought one of these a month ago and today I had it set for a 13 hour burn out, I came back to it and the digital screen is now flashing and won't let me set any temp or time. I'm located in Dallas Texas. Can someone please comment a link as to where I can get some help with this?
Hi DJ, Please contact our customer service and we will be glad to assist - 518-249-6533 Monday - Friday 9-5pm EST.
here i am two weeks after emailing Pmc supplies, and i have NO ANSWER!
My kiln has a different display 😢
I'm having a problem with mine. I've been setting it to 1430 and it constantly heats up about 20 degrees higher according to the thermocouple. I set it to 1450 for enamelling silver and it melted it completely. Fine silvers melting point is 1763. Any help appreciated.
Maybe try an Autotune and that should calibrate the controller to the thermocouple and kiln you have.
Mine does the same i am going to stop all the heat leaks that are around the door.
Just started the first cycle, hope I don't burn the house down
How do I get it to hold
Same… i’m just trying to get it to ramp up to 1600 and hold for an hour, and I have unsuccessfully tried twice in a row now. It heats up to 1600 and immediately comes back down and I don’t know what I’m doing wrong and I can’t find any videos on troubleshooting anything like this. Did you get answers? Can you help me?
Why did I watch an 11 minute tute for a furnace I'll never own? I hate lockdown...
because u want one like me lol
Does it work the same for the pro l
The PRO-L uses our standard controller. Our standard controller does not require programming. You simply just use an Up and Down button to increase or decrease the temperature.
So does anyone who has a tt pro ever have 2 separate and distinct programs to run. And NOT have to enter each program every time.
Dear Ra Kessler, You can have 2 programs set without having to enter each program each time. There are 30 steps within the programmable controller allowing you to set as many programs as you wish within the 30 steps available. If you contact our technicians they can walk you through on how to set this up and explain how to access those programs when starting your kiln. Tabletop technicians are available Monday - Friday 9am-5pm EST. 518-249-6533 Thank you!
Can you it after burning
I cant fabricate an acceptable reason why a variance of 25 degrees + or - isn't covered in this video or the manual in detail. I thought mine was broken and it almost became a very expensive anchor. Plenty of kilns are not programmable so you pay more money for it to follow a burn cycle, so when it waffles off the plan you cant help but think something is abnormal. I know 25 degrees isnt changing the results of your mission but watching it visually stray from the numbers can ruin your day if you dont know how to process the data. Now I add +20 degrees to every temperature program entry religiously. The car dealership didnt tell me that when I set my cruise control to 60 mph, I might be going 85mph or 45mph.
So i also have concern in the variation flux of temp. My furnace door does not seal and i am about to use furnace cement/gasket to try to control that flux in temp. I am also using the furnace to heat treat and temper steels
How to reset it
Can you burn pottery in this?
Yes... make sure it's fire clay made to be put in a kiln.
Por favor explícame en esoañol.q la firma que me vendio no me atiende
Can you setup more than 1 program
I have the same question. I have been told it can be done. But no where is that shown or explained.
@@ralfkessler yea they are trying there hardest not to answer. Customer service my axx. Maybe this thread will wake them up
Still trying for 2 programs
@@ralfkessler I would be ok with a simple yes or no
Yes each step is a different program. Change the step number and add a different program. Then when ready to burn switch to the program you want and run it. At least that’s what I understand from reading others comments
any way I could get it to 1300C?
Dear Carl, Technically yes however, we don't recommend it. The coil and insulation are rated up to 2300 F. Contact us Monday-Friday 9am-5pm EST and we can discuss the options - 518-249-6533 Thanks!
@@Pmcsupplies Rated to 2300 F huh? So even though it's advertised for up to 2200, if someone wanted to, say, try and use it to debind and sinter something made with Virtual Foundry's 316 Stainless Steel filament (2300 F), that might barely be doable? Or would that kill the kiln?
@@Pmcsupplies He is asking for 1300C ( celcius ). And you are answering with Fahrenheit. What is the temperature that the coil heats to?? Fahrenheit or Celcius ???
Switching it from stop to run made it immediately start going up
That how it works. Furnaces heat up when you turn them on. 👌 😉
= stop
= go!
Thanks, used it today to heat treat a knife. I cut holes in it, sorry!
I actually really don't like the key pad I feel it would be better with a simple turn nob just my opinion
We offer a standard controller in our Rapidfire PRO-L series that just uses an up and down button to increase and decrease the temperature. No programming required.
Por favor en español
So the letter C means Celsius but the unit heats on Fahrenheit ???????? How do I know if my unit heats in Fahrenheit or Celcius ???????? Wtf
I’d never get this right. Most confusing thing I ever saw. Except Paragon.
Could this be any more confusing? Geez.... :-/
@@capt.diractance9926 definitely not. Go to the Auger website and read the manual for the PID. Clears up a few things that really should be covered here... Or better yet... in the instructions included with the furnace.
Every PID temp controller is like this. You have to learn it like you would a new phone or other electronic device. Just remember the time in each step is the time it takes to reach the next step temp... So it's a ramp up time. To hold you'll have to enter the following step at the same temp and the time as the time you want it to hold there. Holding at a temp involves 2 steps. Confusing... Sry...but vital.
Can you just tell me what fucking temperature to put on the goddamn furnace to melt silver?
Why don’t you just Google it? Or ask Chat GPT.
Super complicated to understand 'how' to calculate and program for fusing. The company has zero information in the instructions.
Dear JacQue, Feel free too contact us Monday-Friday 9am-5pm EST with any questions. We are happy to assist with your specific program needs. Thank you!
240 volts or what
My king never turned black so what now
