Preliminary Information
About the Control
This control is an advanced, programmable computer
that lets the owner control machine features by
pressing a sequence of SELECT CYCLE pads. Refer
to Figure 1.
The control allows the owner to program custom
cycles, set vend prices, retrieve audit information, run
diagnostic tests, program special vend features and
other programmable features. Refer to Programming
Control for a list of features. Tumblers shipped from
the factory have a default cycle (MED TEMP) built in.
However, the owner can change the default cycle, or
any cycle, as needs permit.
IMPORTANT: In the event of a power failure, the
control will not have to be reprogrammed. It is
designed with a memory system that will remember
how it was programmed (for up to 10 years) until
the electrical power is restored.
IMPORTANT: It is extremely important that the
tumbler has a positive ground and that all mechanical
and electrical connections to the control are made
before applying power to or operating the tumbler.
Glossary of Terms
The following are a few terms and abbreviations to
learn. These are referred to throughout the instructions.
Display – This term refers to the window area of the
control that displays words and values.
LED (Light Emitting Diode) – This term refers to the
lights next to the keypads and status words of
the control.
Power Failure Recovery
If a cycle is in progress and the power fails, the cycle
status is saved in memory. When the power recovers,
the tumbler will resume into the previously active
cycle (if so programmed by the owner), by pressing
the START pad. If the power failure occurs while the
control is in a fatal error mode, it will return to Ready
Mode upon recovery.
The owner may program a special feature called
POWER FAIL RESET which sets a maximum power
failure duration. To program this feature, refer to
Programming Control, option 29.
If the length of the power failure is greater than the
POWER FAIL RESET time, the control will end the
cycle and the display will revert back to the Ready
Mode rather than resume the previously active cycle. If
the length of the power failure is less than the POWER
FAIL RESET time and the power failure is greater
than 2 seconds, or the POWER FAIL RESET is turned
off, the tumbler will enter START mode.
Communications
The control may be programmed manually, by
infra-red with an external device or by the network. A
limited number of features can be programmed by a
card reader.
Infra-red Communications (Optional)
An external device, such as a PDA, allows the owner
to program and retrieve information from the control
without touching the keypad. An external device
greatly expands the programming options available to
the owner. However, the external device is not required
to program and operate the tumbler. The operation of
an external device and the advanced features available
are covered separately in the instructions included
with the external device software. Contact Alliance
Laundry Systems for a list of approved PDAs and
other external devices.
Serial Card Reader Communications
(Card Models Only)
The control will accept communication with a serial
card reader in order to perform vending transactions
when a card is inserted to pay for cycles. The card
reader can also allow the owner to program and collect
audit information.
For detailed information on serial card reader
communications, refer to instructions included with
card reader.
Network Communications
The control will also accept communication with a
network interface board which allows the control to be
linked to a personal computer. This network link
allows an owner to program, collect data and run
diagnostics on any machine.
For detailed information on network communications,
refer to the network instructions.

Control Identification
SELECT CYCLE Pads
(Refer to Figure 1)
SELECT CYCLE pads are used to select the specific
tumbler cycle and temperature. These pads include
HIGH TEMP, MED TEMP, LOW TEMP,
DELICATES and NO HEAT. The selection of one of
these cycles will light up the corresponding LED. The
factory default cycle is MED TEMP.
START Pad
(Refer to Figure 1)
The START pad is used to start the tumbler after the
full vend price has been satisfied and the tumbler door is
closed.
Both the START pad and the SELECT CYCLE pads are
used in various combinations for programming cycles,
retrieving audit information, running diagnostic tests,
and other operations. During an active cycle (card reader
equipped machines only), the START pad may be
pressed (with a card inserted) to add time to a cycle.

Display Identification
Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs)
(Refer to Figure 1)
LIGHT EMITTING DIODES (LEDs) are used to
indicate the chosen temperature and cycle status. See
below for information on each LED.
INSERT COINS/CARD LED
The INSERT COINS/CARD LED is lit to prompt the
user to insert coins or a card to satisfy the vend price
for the chosen cycle. The LED is lit during the
“Ready” mode. During Partial and Additional Vend,
the LED flashes one second on and one second off.
The INSERT COINS/CARD LED will shut off when
the vend price has been satisfied.
START LED
The START pad LED flashes whenever the dryer is
not in a cycle, the full vend price has been satisfied,
and the tumbler door is closed. When the START pad
is pressed, the cycle will begin or resume. The START
LED will shut off when the START pad is pressed.
The START LED will also flash any time a card is
inserted to add time to the current cycle.
DRYING LED
The DRYING LED is lit to indicate that one of the
heated cycles (HIGH TEMP, MED TEMP, LOW
TEMP, DELICATES) is currently in operation. The
DRYING LED goes off at the end of a heated cycle, if
the heated cycle is changed to a NO HEAT cycle, or
when the COOL DOWN cycle begins.
COOL DOWN LED
The COOL DOWN LED is lit whenever the COOL
DOWN portion of a heated cycle is active. It is also lit
when the NO HEAT cycle is in operation. The COOL
DOWN LED will shut off when a cycle ends or more
time is added, pushing the cycle back into the heated
portion of a cycle.
Four 7-Segment Digits
The 7-SEGMENT DIGITS are used to display the
time remaining in a cycle, vend price, error messages
and descriptive codes. During diagnostic testing or
manual programming of the control, these digits will
display descriptive codes and values (as described in
Entering the Manual Mode).

Tumbler Operation
Start Up
When power is applied to the tumbler, the control
becomes active and will display its software version as
“SXX” (“XX” is the version number) for one second
and then the subversion as “XX” (if subversion isn’t
zero) for one second. If the control was not powered
down during a running cycle, it will enter the Ready
Mode.
Ready Mode
In Ready Mode, the default cycle LED is lit, and the
full vend price is displayed.
The user may select a different cycle, if desired. If the
vend price is not satisfied within 4.25 minutes, the
tumbler control will return to the Ready Mode. The
display will continue to show the remaining vend
needed to start a cycle.
Partial Vend Mode
The control enters this mode when part of the vend price
has been entered, but not enough vend is entered to
satisfy the vend price. The control will display the
remaining vend price needed to start the cycle and the
INSERT COINS/CARD LED is lit.
Additional Vend Mode
The control enters this mode if the cycle is changed to
a cycle that requires more money. If the vend price is
not satisfied within 60 seconds, the control will go
back to the first selection and the cycle will continue.
Start Mode
Vends may be satisfied by a coin drop, start pulses, or
by a third party card reader. If a coin drop is used, the
remaining vend price will decrease with each coin
entry. If start pulses are used, the remaining vend price
will decrease with each received pulse. Once the vend
is satisfied, the START LED will begin to flash and
signal will sound for ten seconds. If a third party card
reader is used, the START LED will begin to flash
when a valid cash card is entered into the reader.
When the START keypad is pressed, the tumbler will
start. The START LED will stop flashing and either
the DRYING LED or the COOL DOWN LED will be
lit. The display will change to show the remaining
cycle time on the display. The DRYING LED will be
lit during the heat portion of a heat cycle. The COOL
DOWN LED will be lit during the cool down portion
of a heat cycle and during an entire no heat cycle.
When a cycle is complete, the display will show “00”
until the door is opened, a key is pressed, a coin or
card is entered, or a start pulse is received. When any
of the above happens, the display will revert back to
the Ready Mode.
Entering Coins
Coins are entered to satisfy the programmed vend
price for a selected cycle. Coins may be entered before
selecting a cycle or during an active cycle. When coins
are entered during an active cycle, the time remaining
is increased by the amount programmed by the owner
(refer to Programming Control).
The owner may choose to add additional time for each
coin entered. If coins are entered for an active cycle
currently in the COOL DOWN Mode, coins entered
may push the cycle back into the DRYING Mode. The
maximum time for any cycle is 99 minutes.
