Five Second Timeout
When using the up or down keys to change a value, if you do not press any key for 5
seconds, the controller will automatically be set to the last value on the display and
return to [`idle].
Initial Preheat
At power-up, the unit will preheat to the temperature value set in the Configuration
Mode [seTUp] / [Ready]. The display will show [prE-`] [`Heat] followed by oil
temperature as the oil heats up.
When the unit reaches initial preheat temperature, [ready] will flash once on the dis-
play and an audible tone will sound for 2 seconds. Then [`idle] will appear on the dis-
play. If the Real-time Clock option is installed and [SEtUp] / [Cloc`] is set to
[``yes], the time of day will appear on the display.
If the preheat condition is met at power-up, the controller goes directly to idle, and does
not display [rEAdy] or sound an audible tone.
Preheat
If in the Configuration Mode [SEtUP] / [ready] has been set to yes, the controller will
detect temperatures and preheat to operating temperature (above relative set point
minus the ready band) as required.
•
Activate the current menu by pressing the Start/Stop key.
If the fryer is not at operating temperature, it will preheat. Meanwhile:
The word [Pre-`] [`Heat] will appear on the display for a few moments. The
Start/Stop key indicator light will flash slowly. The temperature of Channel 1 will
be displayed until the operating temperature is reached.
The heat output indicator light - G, just below the display- will light up whenever
the controller is calling for heat.
When the fryer is at operating temperature (above relative set point minus the
ready band) [ready] will appear on the display and the Start/Stop key indicator
light will flash rapidly. You are now ready to cook with the active menu.
If the fryer is at operating temperature, the display goes directly to [ready] with-
out indicating preheat or temperature.
