AXIAL THERMISTOR INPUT
This location determines whether the Phase 7 dual microprocessor controller (DMC) computer will use the thermistor probe to monitor the axial temperature in an axial dryer. This menu can be toggled ON and OFF. When the option is turned on, the Phase 7 DMC (computer) will be configured to an axial dryer.
NOTE: In an axial configuration, the new exhaust probe temperature range for drying cycles will be between 100°F and 150°F.
THERMISTOR TEMP SET POINT 100 TO 400°F
This location is only active when the AXIAL THERMISTOR INPUT has been turned ON. If the AXIAL THERMISTOR INPUT is OFF, this location will display NOT AVAILABLE. When the AXIAL THERMISTOR INPUT is ON, this location will determine at what temperature the Phase 7 DMC (computer) will cycle the heat, using the temperature reading from the thermistor probe.
PL #03 – HI KEY, PL #04 – MED KEY, PL #05 – LO KEY SETTINGS
TIME FOR AMOUNT TO START 1 TO 99 MINUTES
This location determines the time that is vended once the AMOUNT TO START is met. It is programmable from 1 minute to 99 minutes, in 1 minute increments. Each temperature setting has its own TIME FOR AMOUNT TO START so that each temperature setting can charge at a different rate.
Once the Phase 7 DMC (computer) is in Pause Mode and the Phase 7 DMC (computer) is displaying “CYCLE PAUSED” for Coin Mode or “CYCLE PAUSED...SELECT TEMP TO RESTART OR PAUSE TO CLEAR CYCLE” for Free Mode, the user can restart the dryer in HI, MED, or LO.
COIN MODE
In Coin Mode, when the Phase 7 DMC (computer) is set to Accumulative Time Mode and a cycle is started, the Phase 7 DMC (computer) will calculate how much time is available for the temperature selected by using the TIME FOR AMOUNT TO START for the temperature key selected and the AMOUNT TO START. If the Phase 7 DMC (computer) is paused and a new temperature key is selected the Phase 7 DMC (computer) will calculate how much time is left in the cycle for the new temperature selected. These calculations are based on the TIME FOR AMOUNT TO START for the new temperature key and the amount of credit that was available at the time the Phase 7 DMC (computer) was placed into Pause Mode.
FREE MODE
In Free Mode the Phase 7 DMC (computer) will use the TIME FOR AMOUNT TO START for the temperature key selected to determine how much time is available for the cycle started.
When the Phase 7 DMC (computer) is placed into Pause Mode, the Phase 7 DMC (computer) will calculate a ratio of how much time was left in the cycle at the time the Phase 7 DMC (computer) was placed into Pause Mode and the TIME FOR AMOUNT TO START for the temperature key that was previously selected. Once this ratio is determined, the Phase 7 DMC (computer) will use the same ratio to determine how much time is left in the cycle, when a new temperature key is selected. The Phase 7 DMC (computer) will multiply the TIME FOR AMOUNT TO START for the new temperature key by the ratio and that will determine how much time is left in the cycle.
