Frymaster 8195916 - Manual (Page 11)

2–2
INTRODUCTION
The basket lift timer allows the operator to specify a frypot setpoint, assign different cooking times
for each of the left and right basket lifts, and independently control the operation of the left and right
basket lifts. The operator can also choose constant cooking time display or constant setpoint display.
The timer will not display the actual frypot setpoint.
The timer automatically selects Fahrenheit or Celsius temperature values. When entering the frypot
setpoint, values less than 191 are considered to be Celsius temperatures. Any value greater than 190
is considered to be a Fahrenheit temperature.
The operator can toggle between cook time display or setpoint display by pressing
.
The timer stores the current time and temperature settings when the unit is turned off with the
ON/OFF switches. In the event of a power failure, or if the circuit breaker is switched off, the time
and temperature settings should be rechecked for accuracy. NOTE: The ON/OFF switches DO
NOT control the AC power supply to the fryer, they only turn the controller on or off.
The timer has three error display messages:
HELP, indicating a heating problem. Turn the fryer off and call the Frymaster hotline.
HOT, indicating that the frypot temperature is above 385°F (196°C). If this display is seen, turn the
fryer off immediately.
, indicating a problem in the temperature measuring and control circuits. Turn the fryer off
and contact an authorized servicer.
NOTE: This controller is configured for the fryer on which it is installed (i.e., gas or electric and
full- or split-pot). Although identical in appearance, computers configured for use on one type of
fryer are not interchangeable with those configured for use on another type.
DEFINITIONS
Number Key Pad: One of the groups of numbered buttons on the control panel. The buttons are
used to enter the frypot setpoint and to specify a cooking time for each basket
lift.
Frypot
Setpoint: An operator-determined frying temperature. When the controller is turned on,
it automatically brings the cooking oil or shortening to the setpoint and
maintains it at that temperature until the computer is turned off.
Cooking
Time: The operator-determined time for cooking a product.
Basket Lift Button: Pressing one of these buttons initiates a cooking cycle and lowers its
associated basket into the frypot. At the end of the specified cooking time, the
basket is raised out of the frypot.
