Machine Cycle Definition and Operation

There are 30 machine cycles that can be selected and

run. Machine cycles can be modified or made

“unavailable” by manually editing them in Modify

Cycle Menu or by using the PDA to download a

modified machine cycle into the control. Machine

cycles cannot be deleted, but can be made

“unavailable” so that they are not visible from the

Cycle Menu. New machine cycles cannot be created,

but existing machine cycles that have been edited to be

“unavailable” may be re-edited to be available again.

Machine Cycle Operation

When a cycle is run, the control runs the cycle

segment by segment in a sequence. First the control

examines the Cycle Type chosen to determine if it is a

Time Dry, Auto-Dry or Moisture Dry (if equipped)

cycle type. Then the first segment is examined to see if

it is programmed to “



” or “



”. If the segment is

programmed to “



”, control skips to the next

segment.
At the start of some machine cycles, the control

displays a Total Remaining Cycle time. This time is

taken from the machine cycles as they are

programmed. The Total Remaining Cycle Time begins

to count down as soon as the cycle is started.

Time Dry Cycle

In this type of cycle, the control will regulate the

temperature and time duration as programmed for the

cycle chosen.

Auto-Dry Cycle

If this type of cycle is selected, the control determines

the cycle time based on the temperature and dryness

level programmed for the cycle chosen.

Moisture Dry Cycle (if equipped)

In this type of cycle, the control checks the

programmed material type, programmed target

moisture content, programmed temperature and the

data received from the moisture sensing system to

achieve the desired results.

Rotation Sensor Equipped

Machines

On machines equipped with a rotation sensor, the

control monitors the rotation sensor to verify the

cylinder is rotating. The control calculates the

cylinder’s RPM. If the RPM drops to zero while the

cylinder is supposed to be rotating, the control will

advance to the Cool Down segment of the cycle and an

error message will be displayed.

To Start a Cycle

1. Press the Up ( ) or Down ( ) keypad to change

cycles.

2. Press Start (

) to start selected cycle.

NOTE: If door is not closed when the Start (

)

keypad is pressed, display will show “



”.
