Manual Mode Control Feature

Manual control is available only while a preprogrammed cycle is in progress, and if manual mode is prompted in the WE-6 programming. With the exception of motor speeds and the door unlock output, the WE-6 computer outputs can be operated manually from the keypad. (In order to assure proper sequencing, all motor speeds are always controlled by the computer.)

NOTE: When the manual mode control feature is activated, the operator must supply on/off commands for the controllable outputs. If an output is on, it will remain on until turned off by the operator or until the assigned time for the manual mode expires. This can be as long as 9 minutes and 99 seconds.

In normal operation, when the program mode switch is in the RUN position, only the operations printed in black on the keys are accessible to the operator.

During the manual mode, normal cycle timing is suspended. When the manual mode is entered, the operations printed in red on the keys and mentioned in the following discussion are activated.

Entering the manual mode during a fill operation is not recommended. This bypasses the water-level switch inputs, and the water must be turned off manually by the operator.

The following procedure must be accomplished within three seconds in order to enter the manual mode:

1.Press the Manual key.

2.Then press three number keys to assign a time in minutes and seconds to the manual mode. For example, press key 2, key 3, and key 0 to enter the manual mode for 2 minutes and 30 seconds.

3.Then press the Add Step key.

Operation

When the computer receives all these inputs within the three-second time limit, it will enter the manual mode for the time assigned. The computer display will flash between “MAN230” (reflecting the time chosen in Step 2 of the above procedure) and the current cycle step display for four seconds.

NOTE: If “NO MAN” is prompted and the normal key sequence for manual mode is entered, the computer will display only the remaining cycle time.

After four seconds, the display will flash between “MANUAL” and the current cycle step display for the remainder of the assigned time.

Manual mode operation will automatically end when the assigned time elapses. Normal program timing will then resume from the same point in the cycle where the manual mode was entered. To exit the manual mode and return to normal program timing before the assigned time elapses, press the Start key.

All water fill and spray rinse valves, supplies, heat (if the washer-extractor has reached low water level), and auxiliary outputs can be manually controlled. The heat output requires that only the Heat key be pressed. All other outputs require that two keys be pressed. For example, to turn on the cold fill valve, press the keys Cold and Fill. When an output is on, pressing the same key or keys which caused it to energize will turn it off. Thus, to turn off the cold fill valve, press the keys Cold and Fill once again.
