Setting the Delays

The following timers are set using the same procedure, but the Reset button does not need to be pressed
to enter the new values into memory immediately.

AUX. 1 DELAY - Not used.

REFILL DELAY - Used only on batch units. This delays the start of drying to allow the drying chamber to
fill. If the unit does not refill within this time the unit will give a “dry chamber empty” error.

FILL #1 DELAY - This timer keeps the fill system running for a period of time after the Drying Chamber
switch has detected grain. The purpose is to eliminate rapid start/stop in the fill system. Set the timer so
that grain covers the Upper Level switch, but does not reach the Chamber Overflow switch.

If the Autoflow controls two (2) fill systems, this timer keeps fill system #1 running after fill system #2 has
stopped. (Fill system #1 is the system the delivers direct to the drying chamber.) Set the time to completely
empty fill system #1, but should not allow grain to reach the Chamber Overflow switch.

FILL #2 DELAY - This timer is used where two (2) fill systems are controlled. It keeps fill system #2 running
for a period of timer after the Drying Chamber Upper Level switch has detected grain. Set the timer so that
grain covers the Upper Level switch, but does not reach the Chamber Overflow switch.

OUT OF GRAIN DELAY - This allows the dryer to continue running for a period of time after the Drying
Chamber Low Level switch has detected no grain. This stops nuisance shut downs. Once the out of grain
timer has elapsed the dryer will shut down and report “no grain”. If you are getting “no grain” shut downs,
increase the timer.

FAN DELAY - Used only on twin fan units to delay the start of the second (slave) fan. Recommended
setting is 3 seconds.

FANS OFF DELAY - Allows the fans to be stopped during the dump cycle. Options are 1.00 (ON) and
0.00 (OFF). When ON the fans will stop during the dump cycle and restart following.

Standard Setup

The setup mode is used to program the computer with different variables that influence how the dryer
will operate.

CLEAR TOTAL BATCHES - Press the Reset button to clear the total batches. Press the Enter button
to continue.

CLEAR WARNING HISTORY - Press the Reset button to clear the warning history. Press the Enter button
to continue.

TIME UNTIL LOAD OFF - In Autobatch mode is the percentage of time through the dry cycle that the fill
systems will be shut off regardless if the dryer is full or not. Press the Enter button to return to the main
drying screen.
