== Major Equipment with Required Training ==<br />
Here is a list of the major equipment, compiled from the individual zone wiki pages and arranged alphabetically, with zone, ownership, instructors and access. <br />
The instructors listed are those that have volunteered to train others and have been approved to do so by the zone warden.<br />
Access is either OPEN (you decide whether you can handle the machine, or need some training);i3 TRAINING REQ'D (you have to be trained by an approved i3 trainer or get Warden approval of prior experience with that type of equipment), or PRIVATE (you must contact owner for permission to use [rare]). <br />

<br />
== KilnZone Rules ==<br />
<br />
1) I3 KilnZone training is required to operate KilnZone equipment. A list of Trained Users is above.<br />
<br />
2) When not firing, all private materials and components need to be removed to member's storage. The metal rack is for PUBLIC materials only.<br />
<br />
3) Use Boron Nitride for public molds. Use Kiln paper for Kiln floor.<br />
<br />
4) Clean or apply Boron Nitride OUTSIDE. No Exceptions. ALWAYS use a mask. SEE SAFETY <br />
<br />
5) When using glass powder and other materials of 100 Micron or less, use a mask. And don't work near other people. (Farther than 20' and near ventilation if possible). SEE SAFETY.<br />
<br />
6) Do Not open a working Kiln unless you are the current user or there is an emergency.<br />
<br />
6) If you are using a Kiln and need to leave the building, Make sure Your name and cell # is on the KILN IN USE Whiteboard and the Kiln In Use Side is outward.<br />
<br />
7) Do not put cardboard or paper in the cage. Plastic is OK if more than 18" from the Kiln.<br />
<br />
8) ABSOLUTELY NO FLAMMABLES IN THE CAGE.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
== IN CASE OF EMERGENCY ==<br />
<br />
1) If needed call 911.<br />
<br />
2) If possible and effective, turn off Programmable Controller with green switch.<br />
<br />
3) Else, if possible turn OFF Kiln 1 by turning all 3 knobs on Kiln 1 to ZERO. You should hear a click and see the red light go out.<br />
<br />
3) To contain fire, if necessary, use the fire extinguisher located at KilnZone.<br />
<br />
4) Call current user at the cell number located on the clip board on the gate of the KilnZone.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
== Safety ==<br />
<br />
There are 5 areas where we are developing guidelines for respiratory safety. Two main issues, particle size for normal respiratory irritation, and silicosis with silica particulates. Close exposure to small particles, less than 10 microns, and continued exposure to particles less than 50 microns can cause respiratory irratation. To give a rule of thumb, 90% of wheat flour particles are 10-40 microns for typical flour. <br />
<br />
Continued exposure to silica particles less than 100 microns can cause silicosis. These are a more serious issue the smaller the particle and the longer the exposure.<br />
<br />
<br />
* Cleaning molds of Boron Nitride (BN) after a firing or spraying molds with BN is using an aerosol with BN particles of about 10 micron. At present we do all of this outside and with a mask. In the future we may have a HEPA draft box to do this inside.<br />
<br />
* Cleaning post-fired Kiln Paper. This is silica particles of 100 microns. We use a mask and use wet paper towels direct to trash. We may get a HEPA shopvac in the future. DO NOT use a regular shop vac.<br />
<br />
* Working with Frit Powder. This is silica particles of about 100 microns. Currently, we use a mask and try to keep 20 feet from unmasked personnel currently. This may be overkill. I am looking for more data and may revise this to simply using masks in future. We wet-wipe clean all work surfaces with paper towel to trash after and do not return any plastic spoons or cups to kitchen.<br />
<br />
* Working with Silica Flour for creating molds. Same protocol as Frit powder. Silica flour has a distribution of sizes from 10 micron to 125 micron typically.<br />
<br />
* Working with Plasters/Cements. Plaster of Paris has somewhat larger particle sizes than cement. Only small amounts of silica. Mask recommended. No boundary issues. Normal powder mixing issues.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
All mask should be at least N95, prefferrably N100.<br />
<br />
==Kiln and Glass Casting Classes==<br />
<br />
Starting 5/29/13 We will have Kiln Training and Glass Casting class almost every Wed at 7PM-9PM for the foreseeable future. Members only. Bring your own mask, N95 or better. Materials will be supplied. No fee. No Walkons. Sign Up by eventbrite. 6 members per class. Classes Lock down at 5PM of the day prior.<br />
<br />
Note: 7/3 will be the only class in July 2013.<br />
<br />

==How to Program the Kiln Controller==<br />
<br />
Ver 1.0<br />
<br />
by Terry W.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Step 1) Turn ON controller with Green button. You should see the current temp in PV display.<br />
<br />
Step 2) Push the SET button. You should see PASS in the PV display and 0000 in the SV display.<br />
<br />
Step 3) Our convention will be > for the rightward arrow button, ^ for the upward and v for the downward, since I can't type that one. Use >, ^, and v to type in 2000 and hit SET.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Firing Schedules.<br />
<br />
You will see in books on glass, things called firing schedules. They look like this:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
You read that as a set of instructions:<br />
<br />
Ramp up the temperature from room temp to 1250F at a rate of 300F per hour.<br />
<br />
THEN hold 1250F for 30 minutes.<br />
<br />
THEN ramp from there to 1420F at a rate of 300F per hour.<br />
<br />
THEN hold it for 30-60 minutes.<br />
<br />
THEN ramp as fast as you can from there to 960F<br />
<br />
THEN hold it for 90 minutes<br />
<br />
THEN ramp at 50F/hr to 800F<br />
<br />
SKIP holding it.<br />
<br />
THEN ramp at 100F/hr to 600F<br />
<br />
THEN turn it OFF and don't open the kiln until Room Temp (No Venting).<br />
<br />
<br />
Your Kiln Controller needs to be programmed in a series of steps. Each steps has 3 attributes, C,T,Sv.<br />
So your list of instructions will look like<br />
<br />
C1,T1,Sv1<br />
<br />
C2,T2,Sv2<br />
<br />
C3,T3,Sv3<br />
<br />
.<br />
<br />
.<br />
<br />
.<br />
<br />
<br />
Let me define what each of those are.<br />
<br />
C is the PID setting we use. We always use PID#1, which I have preprogrammed into the controller. Please do NOT change PID#1.<br />
<br />
T is time, in minutes. More later.<br />
<br />
Sv is a target temperature in F. I believe Sv is short for “Set Value”. And Pv is Present Value....of what you are trying to control, in our case Temp F.<br />
<br />
<br />
So from our example<br />
<br />
C1=0001, T1, Sv1=0070 (room temp)<br />
<br />
C2=0001, T2, Sv2=1250<br />
<br />
Now Let me explain what T is. T1 is supposed to be the time (in minutes) we are telling the controller to get from Sv1 to Sv2.<br />
<br />
So our programming looks like this:<br />
<br />
C1=0001, T1=240, Sv1=0070 (room temp)<br />
<br />
C2=0001, T2=30, Sv2=1250<br />
<br />
C3=0001, T3= 60 , Sv3=1250<br />
<br />
.<br />
<br />
.<br />
<br />
.<br />
<br />
Note that I am rounding to the nearest half hour because kiln work isn't that fussy<br />
...until you get to Pate de Verre, which is not covered in this lesson.<br />
<br />
Once you have put in all steps, scroll up to END and hit SET. This enters your program. The controller will keep it, even if switched off.<br />
<br />
<br />
Once programmed, you can <br />
<br />
1) Make sure the Thermocouple (yellow plug) is plugged into the yellow socket (check polarity).<br />
<br />
2) Make sure the data signal (blue cat5e wire) is plugged into the Controller and the Relay Box.<br />
<br />
3) Make sure the Relay box is plugged into the wall and the circuit breaker is set to ON.<br />
<br />
4) Roll the cart OUT of the cage.<br />
<br />
5) Make sure the top of the kiln is plugged into the bottom.<br />
<br />
6) Make sure all 3 knobs are set to 10 (or to 11 if you are a Spinal Tap fan).<br />
<br />
7) Make sure the Kiln is plugged into the Relay Box.<br />
<br />
8) Turn on the Controller with the Green Switch.<br />
<br />
9) Hit the > key.<br />
<br />
== Troubleshooting Controller ==<br />
'''1) Within 3 seconds of turning controller ON duty cycle goes to 100% and Sv reads LARGE value.''' Your T1 should be set to room temp or slightly below. If set to HIGH VALUE controller will immediately strive to take kiln UP to HIGH VALUE with 100% duty cycle.<br />

== Warden's Report ==<br />
<br />
July 1, 2013 - About 25 people have taken Kiln Training and are authorized to run the kiln solo. We have about 10 public casting molds of various shapes. These are on loan. There are about 3 dozen Glass Frit colors. These are owned by i3. We will start a cash box soon for their use. Each small jar costs about 8 dollars, so the costs will be prorated, probably like $2 per casting, including Boron Nitride use.<br />
<br />
If your glass sticks in a mold, I now know new ways of recovery, please email me.<br />
<br />
Remember we have Standardized on COE 96. Please contact me if you are going to use a non-standard COE.<br />
<br />
Remember to change the kiln paper about once every 2-4 firings. Change it carefully because it gets powdery when used up.<br />
<br />
We are petitioning the Membership in the July meeting to extend the fence by about 3 feet to accomodate Kiln 2.<br />
<br />
With the addition, Kiln 2 is planned to be operational in Sept.<br />
<br />
As of July 1, all items in the Kiln Zone which have not been ID'd and inventoried on this page as belonging to a member and on loan, will be ID'd and inventoried as belonging to i3. See me before July 15 if this presents any problems.<br />
<br />
As of July 1, we should have all items in the KZ with either a Donation Log entry or a Loaner Form on file with the Board and me.<br />
<br />
Damage lower wall and heating element, left side of kiln1. Reset brick for temporary fix. Should be good for July.<br />
<br />
Need to get HEPA shopvac for removal of Kiln Paper.<br />
<br />
Future Plans:<br />
<br />
* Extend Fence<br />
* Kiln 2 operational<br />
* HEPA shop vac<br />
* Cash Box<br />
* HEPA spray table<br />
* 2nd Rolling Wire Cart<br />
* Kiln Tray w/Leveling<br />
* Sheet Glass Storage<br />
<br />
Expense Report (i3 Funds)<br />

Q1 2013, $0<br />
Q2 2013, $0<br />
<br />

-END JULY 2013-<br />
<br />
<br />
'''August 1, 2013''' This report will have all info that happened after July 1, but on or before Aug 1, 2013. I will accumulate information as the month goes and present the report in the first Member Meeting of August.<br />
<br />
Kiln lower wall has some damage. Kiln good to go, but eventually will need maintenance. Thermocouple had problem. Replaced same.<br />
<br />
Need to add time lapse camera to check if the kiln cycle is operating as expected over a day's worth of pictures.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

<hr />
<div>* There will be two mealtimes: "lunch" at noon, then we work, then "dinner" at ~6pm, or whenever somebody starts cooking!<br />
* Snacks of various kinds will be available throughout.<br />
* Beverages will be BYOB since we've already got a supply of pop in the kitchen. This is a great opportunity to restock your favorites if they're running low!<br />
* There is a grill at the space, right?<br />
* If you have a crockpot, please consider using it! We don't have proper kitchen at the space, so crockpots and such will be helpful for supplying us all with hot food.<br />
* Please avoid common allergens (or put them on the side) if they're optional in your recipe: nuts, dairy, wheat, etc.<br />

<hr />
<div>== SIG Newbies ==<br />
<br />
This is a rolling list of the Freshmen of i3 (members of less than 12 months). <br />
<br />
The very FIRST step as a SIG Newbie is to edit this Wiki and add your name.<br />
<br />
To ask a member, send her or him an email. To find email addresses of your fellow members, use the [[CRM]] list.<br />
<br />
If you can't get into the CRM, post on the Google Group PRIVATE Members only discussion group - i3 Detroit.<br />
<br />
If you can't get into Google Group Private Members group, post on the public Google Group for i3 - i3 Detroit Public. Someone will get you going.<br />
<br />
<br />
Make sure you can:<br />
<br />
1) Post in the private Google Group.<br />
2) Edit this wiki.<br />
3) Log into the CRM.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Also, take a look at the New Member [[New Member Orientation#FAQ|FAQ]]. <br />

<br />
== Welcome ==<br />
<br />
Welcome to the electronics room! If you don't know what something does, please ask. The Zone Warden is [[User:Nbezanson|Nate B]]. The zone warden sign is here: http://i3detroit.com/wi/index.php?title=File:ERoomZonePosterWithMoney.docx<br />
<br />
Tools in this zone:<br />
<br />
[[EdsynLonerSolderingStation|Edsyn Loner soldering stations]] (the black ones directly above the bench)<br />
<br />
[[WellerSolderingStation|Weller WLC-100 soldering stations]] (the orange ones on the top shelf)<br />
<br />

[[XTronic4000|X-Tronic 4000 series hot-air rework station]]<br />
<br />
[[MFJ269B|MFJ 269B Antenna analyzer]]<br />
<br />
== Etiquette ==<br />
<br />
As with all of i3, leave nothing on the workbenches. Your project can be stored in a labeled box in the electronics room if you are actively working on it and it is small. Otherwise, take it home or use regular member storage.<br />
<br />
If you were trimming or stripping wires, consider sweeping before you leave.<br />
<br />
== Store ==<br />
<br />
The gray and gray/yellow drawers on the back wall are the electronics "store". These components are for anyone who has a use for them. Place payment in the drawer labeled "Gives us the money Lebowski" near the middle. The image on the right is an approximate map to the component locations as of late August 2012. Ping Nate B for an update if one appears to be needed.<br />
<br />
Some drawers are now labeled with prices, usually a cost "C" which is what it costs us to restock, and a second value for comparison, like "RS" for Radio Shack's price on an equivalent item. These are just FYI, and all we ask is that you cover the cost. Any markup beyond that is up to you, but you can be pretty generous and still save a bundle compared to retail. A buck here and there helps the selection continue to grow!<br />
<br />
If there's no cost label and you don't know what a component goes for, find it on http://mouser.com/ and add 10% to cover shipping. If you need change, break your bills with change from the cup in the fridge. However, these funds go to different places, so don't just drop money in the wrong cup. <br />
<br />
If you wish to donate components to the store, feel free to do so. If it is clear where they belong, just drop them in, adding labels as necessary. Avoid leaving anything in an unlabeled drawer or bin. If you don't know where something belongs, ask [[User:Nbezanson|Nate B]], or leave a note indicating your intent and he will find or make a place so the parts can remain organized. <br />
