Wilbur Curtis ALPHA 6GTN Fresh-Trac - Manual (Page 5)

These instructions will explain the operation and maintenance of the Fresh-Trac coffee timer. This timer will allow the
user to track the freshness of coffee brewed into glass decanters. Fresh-Trac is only available with Curtis Alpha GT
brewers. A flashing light inside the decanter handle signals when the coffee is no longer fresh.
All changes to the timer settings are made at the Alpha’s UCM (Univer-
sal Control Module). See Resetting the Timer, on page two. Earlier Alpha
UCM controllers do not have the Fresh-Trac feature.
The Fresh-Trac timer uses a visual alarm in the form of a flashing light.
When a new brewcycle begins, you will observe five quick flashes indicat-
ing that the timer has started. Timing data is transmitted to the Fresh-Trac
receiver on the decanter. The timer adjustment range is from 10 minutes to
120 minutes. The factory setting is 30 minutes (default time in the UCM).
When time has expired, the Fresh-Trac will light every five seconds. The
light will turn off completely after one hour or unless you brew again into
the same decanter.
The Fresh-Trac decanter is dish-washer safe. The expected battery life in the light unit is two years. The battery is not
replaceable.
