Setting the Dry, Cool, Unload and Out of Grain Timers

These switches are used to set the drying cycle times in the staged batch drying mode only. The Drying
Mode switch must be in the staged batch position. Out of grain sets the length of time the dryer will run
before shutting down when the Load switch is in the AUTO position. To change the setting of these timers,
follow these instructions:

1. Press the Program (Timers) button until the “carrot”

(See Figure 1C)

is above the timer you want

to modify.

2. Use the UP and DOWN arrow keys to change from the present time to the desired setting. The new

time is automatically accepted.

3. Keep pressing the Program (Timers) button until the carrot disappears or press the Mode Select

button once to exit.

During the operation, the remaining time on each timer is displayed on the screen. If the power goes out
or if the dryer is stopped, these times are saved by the controller. When the dryer is restarted the timers
will continue timing down. The timers will return to their initial settings by pressing and holding the “Stop”
button for 5 seconds.

Setting the Load and Unload Delays

The load delay is used to delay the starting of the load auger when the dryer is unloading to prevent the
load auger from starting and stopping too often. The unload delay is used to control the amount of time
the unload auger runs after the metering rolls stop to allow for auger clean out.

1. Press the Program (Delays) button until the carrot is under the time delay to be changed.

2. Use the UP and DOWN arrow keys to change from the present time to the new one. The new time

is automatically entered.

3. Keep pressing the Program (Delays) button until the carrot disappears or press the Mode Select

button once to exit.
