RS-232 Computer Connection
The operation of the Glassware Washer can be monitored using a computer. The
computer cannot control the operation of the washer. The monitored parameters
are the water conductivity, water temperature, cycle segment, elapsed time of
each segment, and alarms. The fault alarms that are monitored include low water
fill, low detergent and rinse aid levels, low water temperature during Wash 2 and
Wash 3 and the Final Rinse, and if water is detected in the base. The RS-232 data
is constantly sent by the washer even when the front panel LCD is displaying
other information.
