Controller

All models use the same control system.
The electronic controller operates the compressor

(with fan motor), auger drive motor, dispense drive

motor and inlet water solenoid valve. It monitors:

• Reservoir water availability
• Storage bin ice level
• Call for ice dispense
• Call for water dispense
• Refrigeration pressure
• Dispense enable / disable
• Auger motor speed
• Auger motor rotation
• Any installed control options

Many of these are used to insure that the machine

does not damage itself during use. For example, it is

critical that it not attempt to make ice without water, so

if the water sensor is dry, the machine will not make

ice.
Switches - there are four switches:
• Dispense water - to test water dispensing
• Dispense ice - to test ice dispensing
• On/Off - to switch the machine on or off. Holding it

in to shut off will stop ice making immediately.

• Clean - to engage the clean mode
Indicators - there are nine LEDs:
• Power - Glows when controller has power
• Status - Glows when in ice making mode
• Time to Clean - Glows when it is time to clean the

machine

• Water Dispense Sensed - glows when the water

dispense sensor has been triggered*

• Ice Dispensed Sensed - glows when the ice

dispense sensor has been triggered*

• Water Dispense - glows when the inlet water

solenoid valve has been powered*

• Ice Dispense - glows when the ice dispense

motor has been powered*

• Auger - glows when the auger motor is on
• Compressor - glows when the compressor is on
* If blinking the water or ice dispensing time limit has

been met.

There is also a code display, the codes are:

O

- - - for off

F

- - - for ice making

b

- - - for bin full

E

- - - for controller error

C

- - - for clean mode

d

- - - for test mode

1

- - - for auger rotation direction wrong

2

- - - for auger speed too slow

3

- - - for no water sensed

4

- - - for high refrigerant pressure

If a number code is triggered, the controller will stop

ice making. A blinking code means it is a temporary

condition. Example: A blinking F occurs during the

ice making restart process; it stops blinking when the

compressor starts.
The controller will automatically restart from a water

interruption or power interruption or when a refrigerant

pressure switch has automatically reset.
To reset the control when it has been manually locked

out, Push and release the On/Off button to shut it Off

and then Push and release it again to switch it On.
Note: The compressor will not restart for 4 minutes

from the time it was shut off.
