h) Float Switch Selector (S5 dip switch 1)
NOTICE
Do not adjust. This must be left in the factory default position or the icemaker will not operate correctly.
On icemakers with a double float switch, the float switch selector determines which float switch (upper or lower) the control board monitors for refill initiation during the freeze cycle, and the refill counter (S5 dip switch 2 through 5) determines the number of refills. The KMS‑1401MLJ uses a single float switch with a double float switch, upper float switch refill initiation float switch selector setting and is set for 1 refill. When the freeze cycle starts, the control board monitors the upper float switch. If an upper float switch exists, refill is initiated by an open upper float switch and is terminated by a closed upper float switch. There is a maximum refill time of 1 minute. In a single float switch application with a double float switch setting, no upper float switch exists, therefore the control board reads an open upper float switch immediately when the freeze cycle starts and initiates a refill. Since there is no upper float switch to close and terminate the refill, the refill lasts for the maximum
