Preliminary Information
About the Control
The UniLinc control on the tumble dryer is an
advanced, graphical, programmable computer that lets
the owner control most machine features by
interacting with the control.
UniLinc allows the owner to program custom cycles,
run diagnostic cycles, and retrieve audit and error
information.
Tumble dryers shipped from the factory have default
cycles and other settings built in. The owner can
change the default cycle or any cycle.
IMPORTANT: It is extremely important that the
tumble dryer has a positive ground and that all
mechanical and electrical connections are made
before applying power to or operating the tumble
dryer.
DIP Switch Configuration
Make sure DIP switches are configured properly for
the machine. Refer to Figure 2 below.
Power Failure Recovery
If a cycle is in progress when the power fails, and if
the power outage lasts three or more seconds, the cycle
is lost and cannot be resumed when power recovers. If
the power outage lasts less than three seconds, the
control will resume the cycle when the power
recovers.
Communications
The control has the ability to communicate with a
PDA and a laptop with an IrDA device running the
UniLinc software. Devices such as PDAs and laptops
that are IrDA capable (able to transmit information to
machine) that have been tested and approved for use
with the UniLinc software can be used as a tool for
managing the machine.
The control will also accept communication with a
network which allows the control to be linked to a
personal computer. This network link allows an owner
to program, collect data and run diagnostics on any
machine. For detailed information on network
communications, refer to the network instructions.
Audit Information
The control collects and stores audit information,
which can be accessed with a PDA, PC or network.
Refer to the following list for some of the available
audit information. Refer to UniLinc PC and PDA
Application User Instructions.
 Total Number of Individual Cycle Counters
 Last 25 Machine Cycles
 Service History
 End of Cycle to Loading Door Open Time
 End of Cycle to Start of Next Cycle Time
 Total Number of Machine Cycles
 Total Number of Operating Minutes
 Power Failure Audit Data
The PDA, PC or network can receive audit and
program data from the control, and send programming
data and diagnostic commands to the control. Refer to
UniLinc PC and PDA Application User Instructions
for additional information.
Some of the above listed audit data is available
manually. Refer to Laundry Management section.
