3.5 Computer Operation (cont.)

The FGP55 CM-III.5 computer has 10 programmable product buttons, a Simmer Mode switch, and a Boil Mode switch. The computer also has two Power switches. Either switch may be pressed to turn the unit ON or OFF.

The product buttons are multi-functional. In the programming mode, each button can be programmed for a distinct rethermalizing time for a particular product. In the rethermalizing mode, pressing a button initiates a timed countdown of the specific product associated with the button.

When the switch is pressed, the programmed setpoint is overridden and the vessel temperature is

raised to and maintained at 212°F (100°C). When the unit is in boil mode, appears in both LED displays. The unit will remain in the boil mode until the Simmer Mode switch is pressed or the unit is turned off.

The Simmer Mode is activated by pressing the (R) switch. In Simmer Mode, the vessel temperature is maintained at the programmed setpoint. When the switch is pressed, if the vessel

temperature is above the setpoint, °- is displayed in both LED widows. If the vessel temperature is below the setpoint, °- is displayed. If the temperature is within 11°F (6°C) of the

setpoint, (four dashes) is displayed.
