Manual Mode Control Feature

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 valves, supplies, heat (if the machine has
reached low water level), main drain valve (Drain 1)
and auxiliary outputs (excluding water reuse control
outputs) can be manually controlled. The heat and
drain outputs require that only one key be pressed
(Heat and Drain respectively). 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.
