Preliminary Information
About the Control
The UniLinc control on the washer-extractor is an
advanced, graphical, programmable computer that lets
the owner control most machine features by
interacting with the control.
UniLinc allows the owner to program custom cycles,
run diagnostic cycles and retrieve audit, error and
bearing information.
Washer-extractors shipped from the factory have
default cycles and wash temperature settings built in.
The owner can change the default cycle, or any cycle.
IMPORTANT: It is extremely important that the
washer-extractor has a positive ground and that all
mechanical and electrical connections are made
before applying power to or operating the washer-
extractor.
Power Failure Recovery
If a cycle is in progress when the power fails, and if
the power outage lasts three or more seconds, the cycle
is lost and cannot be resumed when power recovers. If
the power outage lasts less than three seconds, the
control will resume the cycle when the power
recovers.
Communications
The control has the ability to communicate with a
PDA or a laptop with an IrDA device running the
UniLinc software. Devices such as PDAs and laptops
that are IrDA capable (able to transmit information to
machine) that have been tested and approved for use
with the UniLinc software can be used as a tool for
managing the machine.
Audit Information
The control collects and stores audit information,
which can be accessed with a PDA. Refer to the
following list for available audit information with a
PDA. Refer to UniLinc PC and PDA Application
User Instructions.

• Last 25 Machine Cycles
• Service History
• Machine Errors Audit Data
• Communication Audit Data
• Re-Programming Audit Data
• Power Failures Audit Data
• Average Fill Time Audit Data
• Average Drain Time Audit Data
• Power Failure Audit Data
The PDA can receive audit and program data from the
control, and send programming data and diagnostic
commands
to the control. Refer to UniLinc PC and
PDA Application User Instructions for additional
information on using a PDA.
