5. If the Bottom probe should fail, the controller reverts to a preset “duty cycle” program
similar to the dual-Top probe failure mentioned above.
Anormal operator response may be as such:
1. the I/0 button to the buzzer.
2. The scrolling message goes away.
3. The status light stays illuminated.
4. All other functions continue as normal:
a. Display shows current recipe selection. Recipe selection is still possible.
b. Belt moves and belt status light is illuminated.
c. Heat Zone status lights will be dark.
5. If the button is pressed to view current temperatures, the unaffected zones will
display their current temperature, but the affected zone(s) will scroll the
message, without any beeping buzzer.
b. Overheat Conditions.
Overheat conditions result from excessive power being applied to the heaters. Such situations
usually arise from a solid-state relay that has failed , of which there is one for each heat
zone (three total). However, over-voltage conditions can also cause excess heat, even though
the relays are OK. Therefore, it is necessary to properly trouble-shoot such conditions to
correctly identify the problem.
The maximum allowable temperature is programmable in the
Mode, and is factory set at 1100°F (593°C).
The controller automatically responds to such conditions as follows:
1. Scrolling message on the display:
2. Alarm status light is illuminated.
3. By shutting power to heaters until Overheat condition resolved.
Anormal operator response may be as such:

5. If the button is pressed to view current temperatures, the unaffected
zones will display their current temperatures, but the affected zone(s) will scroll the
message, without any beeping buzzer. (Since there is no power going
to the heaters, the temperatures should be lower than normal, a failed
relay is continuing to power the heater(s).

NOTE: In either case where the unit is in a “duty cycle” mode, the operator can still use the
unit until service is performed to correct the failure. However, the reduced heat value will
affect the output capacity of the unit.
A qualified technician should make any needed repairs.
