vi.
‘Pulse feed’ options:
This option
is used to adjust the length of time that the detergent feeds (the pulse) and
the interval between pulses, based upon detergent strength and the distance
between the product container and dish machine. The Default setting is 2-ON 6-OFF 80% Set
point. Select the OFF selection for No

6-ON 1-OFF 90% SPT
vii.
Conveyor Time:
If the
Machine type is set to Conveyor this menu will be displayed to set the number
of seconds it takes for a dish machine conveyor to move one rack a single rack
length’s distance. The range of
adjustment is 1-29 seconds. The default
is 10 seconds.
This page allows the user to set/ modify Programmable setting
options based on Probe/ Probeless Types of Detergent Control. The Following
various options are available based on the Detergent Control Type (Probe/
Probeless) Modes.
a. ‘Probe’ Mode Settings:
Various options are available for configuring
the Programmable settings while the Detergent Control Type is Probe.
i.
Rinse Pump Speed:
This menu is used to
display and edit the Rinse Pump Speed in RPM’s.
Press the ENTER button to begin editing the range is 0.5 – 59.5 in 0.5
RPM steps.
ii.
Sanitizer Pump Speed:
This option is used to
display and edit the 3rd Product Pump Speed in RPM’s. Press the ENTER button to begin editing the
range is 2 – 110 in 1 RPM steps.
iii.
Detergent Set point:
This option
is used to set the detergent Set point for use in Probe Mode operation. The menu displays the live current tank
reading and currently programmed set point.
It allows options to Manually Add more detergent, Set the value of the
Set Point by typing a value, or using the current tank reading as the set
point.
iv.
Rinse Delay Time:
This option
is only available when the Machine Type is Door and the Rinse Feed Option
is set to Rinse on Rinse. This setting
minimizes rinse product waste by injecting product only during the last
specified seconds of each rack. The
range for this adjustment is 0-19 seconds.
v.
Rinse Feed Option:
The Rinse Feed Option can be any of: ‘Rinse on Rinse’ or ‘Rinse
on Detergent’
Option 1 will run the rinse pump each time the rinse signal
activates (for the duration of time the signal is present). Option 2 will run the rinse pump for a fixed
time of 12 seconds each time the detergent signal activates.’
b. ‘Probeless’ Mode Settings:
Various
options are available for configuring the Programmable settings while the
Detergent Control Type is Probeless (TIMED).
i.
Detergent Initial Charge:
Provides
option to set the ‘Initial Charge’ Level for ‘Detergent flow’, while the
Detergent Control Type is DOOR.
An Automatic Initial Charge in a Door Type dishwasher occurs
each time the dispenser receives a rinse signal that was not preceded by a detergent signal within 90 seconds prior
(i.e. on an initial fill). When this
condition occurs after a 1 second signal qualification, this triggers the Auto
Initial Charge which consists of disabling the rinse feed and feeding detergent
for the preset time (Detergent Initial Charge). Normal rinse signal activations (within 90
seconds after a detergent signal) will not trigger an initial charge.
ii.
Detergent Dose:
Allow user
to set the ‘Detergent Dose’ Levels. Range for this parameter is 0 - 59 Seconds.
In a Door Type dishwasher, a detergent dose of a programmed
time will occur once each cycle when the Det Signal is activated (1 second
qualification). The rinse signal must
then activate to run the rinse pump before Detergent can run again.
In an Alternate Door Type dishwasher Detergent is dispensed
when the Rinse Signal is activated based on the detergent dose interval and
detergent dose time.
In a Conveyor Type dishwasher, a detergent dose of a programmed time will
occur when the accumulated Rinse On Signal time reaches the conveyor rack time
multiplied by a programmed detergent dose interval (1,2 or 3 racks) The rinse signal does not need to be
toggled off and back on for another dose to occur.
iii.
Detergent Dose Interval:
Set
the Detergent Dose Interval in ‘Racks’. Range for this parameter is 1 – 3
Racks.
In a Conveyor dishwasher a detergent dose will occur when the
accumulated Rinse ON time (accrued either continuously or with interruptions)
is equal to the rack time multiplied by the detergent dose interval set in this
menu.
In a Door type dishwasher a rack is counted each time the
door is opened and closed.
The available dose intervals are every rack, every second
rack, or every third rack so the range for this setting is 1-3.
iv.
Low Detergent Threshold:
Set the
‘Low Detergent Threshold’ level. Range for this parameter is 0 – 19, 0 being
off.
A low detergent alarm is available for probeless mode if a conductivity probe is installed in the same manner as for detergent conductivity control. When the probe is connected, it senses detergent conductivity at 20 different preset values (0-19). Each setting is equivalent to a calibrated conductivity value divided by 5. For example, the setting of 5 is equal to a conductivity setting of 25. When the probe senses reduced conductivity for a certain period of time as selected by rack number, it will activate the low detergent alarm. If the probe leads are either left open or shorted, this feature does not operate. A setting of 0 turns the alarm off.
This page allows the user to set/ modify Alarm setting
options based on Probe/ Probeless Types of Detergent Control. The Following
various options are available based on the Detergent Control Type (Probe/
Probeless) Modes.
a. ‘Probeless’ Mode Settings:
Various options are available for
configuring the Alarm settings while the Detergent Control Type is Probe.
I.
Low Detergent Alarm:
A
Count of Racks to trigger the Alarm (Low Detergent Condition). Range for this
parameter is 1 – 99 Racks. To enable the feature Select the Check box.
This menu setting determines how many racks can run before
the Low Detergent Alarm is activated.
The range is 1-9 racks. Note the
alarm will occur only if there is no increase in detergent concentration and
the unit is below the set point for the number of racks set. The low detergent alarm rack count resets
itself when it detects a rise in detergent concentration > 10% the home
screen will indicate the visual alarm as LOWDET. The audible alarm beeps three times per rack.
II.
Machine Cleaning Hours:
This setting
sets the number of hours at which point to trigger a Machine Clean Alarm
(De-Lime required). This is based on the
accumulated Detergent Signal On time.
The range for this adjustment is 0 to 9999 with a default value of 720
hours. To enable the feature Select the Check box.
III.
Change Squeeze Tubes:
This
setting sets the run time in days to trigger an alarm to change the squeeze
tubes. The pump run time is compared to
the last date the squeeze tubes were changed.
The default value for this setting is 0.
The range for the setting is 0- 365. The default value is 180 days. To
enable the feature Select the Check box.
IV.
Change Tank Rack:
This
setting sets the number of racks since the last drain/initial fill to trigger a
Change Tank Alarm. The default value for
this setting is 0. The range for the
setting is 0- 999 racks. The default value is 100 racks. To enable the feature
Select the Check box.
V.
Low Rinse Temperature:
This option
is used to set the low rinse temperature alarm setting if the Rinse Probe Temp
Alarm is enabled, otherwise it will not be displayed. The default value is 150 degrees F. The allowed
range is 95-212 degrees F/ 35-100 *C. To enable the feature Select the Check
box. A temperature probe must be installed for this feature to be used.
b. ‘Probe’ Mode Settings:
Various
options are available for configuring the Alarm settings while the Detergent
Control Type is Probeless (TIMED).
I.
Tank Probe Faulty:
Allows
user to enable Probe Faulty Alarm. This option is tied to the Conductivity probe
faulty condition.
A set
of various Parameters can be configured for Conductivity Min, Max, and Faulty
Rack count ranges.
This option is used to set the correct operating range of the
Conductivity Probe if the Cond Probe Faulty Alarm is enabled, otherwise it will
not be displayed. The first screen sets
the Minimum value and the second screen sets the Maximum value. Min and Max values default to 10 and 90. The
default setting is DISABLE.. The third parameter specifies the number of racks
that will be allowed to run with the reading outside the range before the alarm
is triggered.
II.
Low Tank Temperature:
This option
is used to set the low tank temperature alarm setting if the Rinse Probe Temp
Alarm is enabled, otherwise it will not be displayed. The default value is 150 degrees F. The allowed
range is 95-212 degrees F/ 35-100 *C. To enable the feature Select the Check
box. A temperature probe must be installed for this feature to be used.
