Powering On the Dryer

After it has been thoroughly inspected, you can turn on your dryer to perform a touchscreen calibration, set
all of the required parameters, and begin drying grain.

Before You Begin

• Make sure that all dryer functions were properly verified and all motors, augers, belts, gear boxes,

electrical boxes, and other components were inspected by authorized maintenance personnel.

• Make sure that the Emergency Stop button on the main control box is in its fully-retracted position

(unlocked).

• If using GSI’s remote web application, make sure that the hardware setup is configured prior to start-

ing the application (System→Hardware Setup). You must complete the hardware setup on-site
before accessing the dryer off-site.

CAUTION

The dryer and all of its components and functions must be in good working order
prior to starting the dryer. Perform thorough inspections at regular intervals,
especially when the dryer has not been in use for extended periods.

To power on the dryer:

1. On the control panel, turn off the following:

• All Fan switches

• All Heater switches

• The Load Auger switch

• The Unload Auger switch

2. On the dryer’s main control box, place the safety disconnect switch in the On position.

3. On the control panel, turn the Power switch to On.

The switch is illuminated, the controller turns on, and the startup window is displayed. During this
time, no onscreen area is active.
