SECTION IV
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The Phase 7 non-coin microprocessor controller (computer) allows the operator to choose from six (6)
preprogrammed cycles (keys “A-F”). These have been preprogrammed by the factory with the parameters
(programs) shown in Section VII. There are also additional (“0-40”) cycles that are preprogrammed by the
factory with the parameters (programs) shown in Section VII. For occasional or onetime special loads, the
operator must set the specific programs needed, utilizing the manually loaded cycles.
NOTE: Refer to Section III of this manual for a complete explanation of the various cycles/selections
available.
After the load is put into the basket (tumbler) and the dryer is ready to dry, determine which cycle will best suit
the application (type of load). We recommend using the Automatic Drying Cycle (Patent No. 4,827,627) for
most loads. This cycle provides for the best drying in the shortest time, automatically.
A. OPERATING SEQUENCE
1. Preprogrammed Cycles
a. Automatic Drying Cycle (Patent No. 4,827,627)
1) Light emitting diode (L.E.D.) display reads “READY” (no cycle in progress).
2) Press the letter on the keyboard (touch pad) corresponding to the cycle desired (i.e., key “A”).
NOTE: “0-40” will require the “START/ENTER” key to be pressed after the number is selected, in
order to accept the selection and start drying.
3) The dryer will then start. (I.E., blower, basket [tumbler], and heat).
4) At the start of a cycle, the L.E.D. display will initially display the cycle parameters of the selected
cycle, AUTO DRYING CYCLE A, TEMP 180, DRYNESS LEVEL EX DRY. Then the display
will read AUTO CYCLE A, ELAPSED TIME 00:00 MINUTES. The L.E.D. display will continue
to show AUTO CYCLE A, ELAPSED TIME XX:XX MINUTES until the load is dried to the
appropriate dryness level or the auto cycle time out time has expired.
NOTE: Press and hold the “UP ARROW” to view the basket (tumbler) temperature at any time.
NOTE: The dryer can be stopped at any time by pressing the “STOP/CLEAR” key; at this time, the
dryer will go into a cycle pause. If the “STOP/CLEAR” key is pressed again at this point,
the cycle that was in progress will be cancelled and returned to the “READY” state.
5) Once the preprogrammed percentage of extraction (dryness level) is reached, the drying cycle will
end and the Cool Down Cycle will begin.
