Network Autoflow Display Board Software Revisions

*********************************************************************
VERSION: 2.15

REVISED BY: Steve Logue

RELEASE DATE: Oct 17, 2002

NOTE: This Version does NOT support Watchdog and the Heater Version MUST be 1.09.

HEATER VERS – 1.09 IO

VERS – 1.07

1) The "

FAN DELAY

" is now called "

MOTOR DELAY

".

2) Added a way for GSI to reset total hours.
3) Here is a list of switches/features which can be found under the setup screens accessed via

holding in on MODIFY while

powering on the Control Power

.

Below is a description for each defining what it means to disable/enable them:
i) AIRSWITCH -> Enabled means you will get a shutdown when a fan loses airflow. Disabled will satisfy the dryer's airflow
requirements for the burner
regardless of the actual air switch state.
ii) LOW LEVEL SWITCH -> Enabled means the drying chamber low level switch will act as normal, i.e, will indicate the real
state of the rotary switch.
When disabled the dryer will think the low level switch is always covered.
iii) WET TANK SWITCH -> Enabled means this switch will act as normal. Disabled means the dryer will think this switch is
always covered with grain.
iv) START FANS WITH HIGH -> Enabled means the dryer will start fans according to state of drying chamber hi level switch.
Disabled means dryer will
start according to drying chamber low level switch.
v) AERATION FAN BYPASS -> Enabled means the BYPASS is active, which allows the aeration fan to continue to run after a
dryer shutdown.
4) The

REFILL TIMER

and the

TIME UNTIL LOAD OFF

screens are only shown when the dryer is set for

Autobatch mode

.

5) There are two more settings available under the "Power on and Modify key in" sequence

for the user to set

how many degrees a

measured temperature can
exceed a setpoint without causing an overheat. The user can set

10 -> 50 degrees

above the setpoint to be an overheat condition.

The default for the

plenum

temp is 20F

and the default for the

grain temp is

30F

.

6) The low level rotary switch function is the same as it was in 2.14, but now instead of giving a warning which states "

DRY

CHAMBER EMPTY

" when

it becomes uncovered it gives "

LOW LEVEL SW EXPOSED

."

7) Added an

Out of Grain Timer

. The time value can be changed under the setup button. This timer starts whenever either fill

systems is running and the load
switch is in the auto position. The timer is reset when both load augers stop. If the timer runs out of time an

OUT OF GRAIN

warning

is issued. The

default is 20 minutes. Any time the value of this Timer is changed the new value takes effect immediately.
8) Changed warning for wet bin empty to state "

WET BIN SW EXPOSED

" instead of saying “

DRYER OUT OF GRAIN

”.

9) Renamed "

FILL 1 DELAY

" to "

FILL SYSTEM #1

". Changed name of "

FILL 2 DELAY

" to "

HI LEVEL SW

". The HI

LEVEL SW delay is always
available on both one and two fill system dryers and is used to make sure the dryer is full so you don't get bogus shutdowns. The
FILL SYSTEM #1 delay is
only available when you are set for two fill systems and it is used to establish auger cleanout time.
10) If the

Storage Bin High Limit is detected as failed

(the N.C. pin and the N.O. pin from the switch are both reporting the same

voltage, 0 or 12 volts) a
warning is reported as “

BIN HI LIMIT SW BAD

”.

11) If wet supply rotary switch becomes uncovered there is a timer which must expire before a warning is given. This timer/delay
was called "AUX 1 DELAY",
but is now termed "

WET BIN SW

. delay" It is found under the

DELAYS

key.

12) The time a user has to think about making a change to a timer/setpoint before it automatically proceeds to the next selection
screen has been doubled.
13) Changed the name of delay/timer "

LOW LEVEL TIMER

" to "

LO LEVEL SWITCH

."

14) Enabled the "

START FANS WITH HIGH

" switch function. There was previously a screen available to select this function, but

it was never active.
15) The

cool down timer is now set to the reload value of the cool timer

whenever any one of the four following shutdowns takes

place:
i) Dry and Hold switch is turned to on state.

ii) Grain falls away from wet bin supply switch.

iii) Storage chamber is full.

iv) Dryer is out of grain.

16) Fans Off Delay now defaults to 0 minutes instead of 1 minute and has an upper limit of 5 minutes. This delay can be found
under the “delay” key.
17) The dryer functions the same whether the load switch is in auto or on, but the out of grain timer only times down while the load
switch is in the auto position
and one of the load augers is running.
