Alliance Laundry Systems 512685R2 Setting Dry Time Dipswitches

Topoffs

Any time the control receives a coin slide pulse during a cycle it will add the programmed dry time to the time currently remaining in the cycle. The IN USE LED will flash briefly to indicate the coin input. The maximum cycle time is 99 minutes. The control will not add time beyond 99 minutes. The cool down time will not change. If the control receives a coin slide pulse during cool down it will exit cool down and start heating with the cycle time equal to the programmed time.

Temperature Selector Switch

For five minutes after the control is powered up, there is a diagnostic feature that allows the temperature selector switches to be tested. When the temperature selector is changed, the new setting is displayed by flashing the IN USE LED as follows:

High/Normal: 4 flashes

Medium/PP or Casual: 3 flashes

Low/Delicate: 2 flashes

No Heat: 1 flash

Error Display Mode

The control enters Error Display Mode to display thermistor errors. The heater is turned off, the IN USE LED flashes to indicate the error (refer to paragraphs below), and the timer will continue to count down time. The control remains in Error Display Mode until the control senses the thermistor has returned to an acceptable heating range, the cycle ends or machine is powered down.

Open Thermistor

If the control senses a temperature less than 0°F when the heat has been on for at least three minutes it will set an open thermistor error. The control will flash the IN USE LED twice separated by a one and a half second pause. This sequence is repeated as long as the Open Thermistor error is sensed.

Shorted Thermistor

If the control senses a temperature greater than 210 ± 4°F during an active cycle it will set a Shorted Thermistor error. The control will flash the IN USE LED three times separated by a one and a half second pause. This sequence is repeated as long as the Shorted Thermistor error is sensed.

Setting Dry Time Dipswitches

To change the dry time on the dryer, combinations of dipswitches can be set on the control. Refer to Figure 34.

There are eight dipswitches on the dryer control. The first six switches are used to program the amount of additional heat time given for each coin pulse. The additional drying time is added to the factory default minimum heat time of one minute. A value of 1 to 63 minutes of additional drying time is available for each coin slide pulse.

The last two switches are used to program the amount of additional cool down time. The additional cool down time is added to the factory default minimum cool down time of 3 minutes. A value of 1 to 3 additional minutes is available.

The control is shipped from the factory programmed with 1 minute of minimum heat time, preset with 41 additional minutes of drying time (dipswitches 1, 4 and 6 in ON position) and 3 minutes of minimum cool down time for a total time of 45 minutes for a coin pulse. Refer to Table 4 for dipswitch settings.

The control reads the dipswitch settings at power-up. The control must be powered down to change the dipswitch settings.

To change the heat or cool down time for a coin pulse, the desired dry time dipswitches must be set to ON position. All other dipswitches must be in OFF position.
