Introduction
The BrewWISE®Recipe Writer box connects to a PC by way of a standard serial port or USB port where applicable. PC software
is included that provides a user interface to the Writer box. A unique feature of the BrewWISE®system is the ability to transfer
information to and from the brewer, funnels, and grinder via the funnels or memory cards.
The BrewWISE®Recipe Writer provides a convenient method of transferring information. The system can then be used to
configure the brewer, funnels, and grinder for optimum flavor performance.
The BrewWISE®Recipe Writer can be used to make:
•Recipe cards for specific coffee names
•Recipe cards for No-Name coffee
•Funnels dedicated to one specific coffee name
•Cards for advertising messages
Use the following diagram as a guide to selecting the type of funnel or recipe card to be written:

System Requirements
•PC with 486DX/66MHz or higher processor; Pentium or higher processor recommended.
•Microsoft®Windows 95, 98, 2000, NT®, or XP operating systems.
•VGA or higher resolution monitor; Super VGA recommended.
•Afunctional, available RS-232 serial port set up as Com1-Com4 or a USB to Serial adapter Cable (Bunn-O-Matic part # 37076.0000)
where applicable.
Installation
If a USB to Serial Adapter was included with your writer, follow the instruction supplied with it for installation.
•It is recommended that all open Windows applications be closed before installing BrewWISE®Recipe Writer software.
•If you are updating an existing version of the BrewWISE®Recipe Writer software, the older version MUST first be un-installed
using Windows Control Panel. Simply go to Start-Settings-Control Panel and Double-click Add/Remove Programs. Then find the
Recipe Writer software in the list of installed programs, select, and click the Change/Remove button.
•From Windows Explorer, Double Click on the setup.exe file located on the installation CD or on Disk 1 of the installation disks. The
installation program will display a “Copying Files” screen. This screen could be present for several minutes if installing from
floppy disks; much less if installing from a CD. You will be prompted to insert Disk 2 if installing from floppy disks.
Double Click

•After all the necessary files are copied, the installation program displays a Welcome screen that allows the user to continue with
installation or exit the setup program. If any Windows applications are running, it is recommended that you close them at this
time.

•Click this button to change the default installation path.
•Click this button to exit the setup program.

•The setup program will then prompt the user to choose a program group. It is recommended that the default BrewWISE®group
be chosen. Click “Continue” to accept this Program Group.
•Once the “Continue” button is clicked, a progress bar will display as the installation completes. Shortly after, a message box
indicating that BrewWISE®setup was completed successfully should appear. Clicking OK will complete the setup process.

Program Operation
•To begin using the BrewWISE®Recipe Writer, plug the serial cable connected to the Recipe Writer Box into the first available
serial port on the host computer. If a USB to Serial Adapter Cable was included with your Recipe Writer, you may connect it
between the attached serial cable on the Recipe Writer box and the USB port on the host computer. Plug in the power supply
attached to the Recipe Writer Box. The green indicator lamp on the Recipe Writer Box should light to indicate that the hardware
is ready.
•From your computer’s desktop, click “Programs” -> “BrewWISE” -> “BrewWISE”. You should then see the switchboard screen of
the BrewWISE®Recipe Writer. If your writer hardware is connected properly, the program should display “Bunn BrewWISE®
Recipe Writer Detected on Comm 1” towards the bottom of the switchboard form. Your Comm port number may be different
depending on individual computer configurations. If the Recipe Writer Hardware is not detected, a message box will appear
indicating so. You may enter, save and retrieve recipes and ads without the Recipe Writer hardware present, but you will not be
allowed to write unless the proper hardware is detected. The switchboard form is pictured below.

New Recipe
•Clicking “New Recipe” from the Switchboard screen brings up the main Recipe form. After a Coffee Name has been typed in and
the “Enter” or “Tab” key is pressed, the remaining three buttons on the form will become active. Recipe volume parameters may
be entered or saved in either English or Metric units. Depending on the specific software in your brewer, Recipes may be written
in Metric units and recognized by the brewer as such. If you are more comfortable with Metric units, but your brewer only
recognizes English units, the Recipe may be entered in Metric, then switched to English before writing the Recipe to the card or
funnel.
•The instruction label provides information such as high and low parameter limits, depending on the specific text box you are in.
This label also shows the allowable format for the numerical parameters, such as whether fractional amounts are allowed.
Note: In text boxes that allow fractional values (a decimal point), whole numbers may still be used without error.
•Most of the text boxes can be typed directly into. The “Tab”, “Shift-Tab” or “Enter” keys can be used to move the cursor on to the
next text box. In order to set the Pulse Brew and Pre-Infusion times, the associated buttons must be clicked and the “OFF” text
boxes must be double-clicked in order to set the times. These steps are present in order to insure that the user is only able to set
Pulse Brew OR Pre-Infusion. Note: Although it is possible to mix Pulse Brew and Pre-Infusion batches on the same recipe,
Pulse Brew and Pre-Infusion cannot be used on the same batch size.

Existing Recipes
•Clicking the “Existing Recipes” button from either the Switchboard form or the main Recipe form brings up the BrewWISE®File
Handler form. The File Handler form allows the user to Open files, Save files, Delete files, or Sort files by name or number.
Double-clicking on a file name in the file list box brings the associated recipe into the main form for writing or editing. The File
Handler also insures that all recipes have a unique name and number. In order for the brewer and grinder to recognize recipes
properly, duplicate recipe names and / or numbers are not allowed.
•Navigating to the File Handler form from the “Dedicated Funnel” form will point the application to a directory set aside for
Dedicated Funnels. Therefore, the application has the ability to store 999 Dedicated Funnel recipes as well as 999 standard
recipes.
•Navigating to the File Handler form from either of the “No-Name” recipe forms will point the application to a directory set aside
for "No-Name" recipes. The application will only store one “No-Name Left” and one “No-Name Right” recipe in this directory.

Existing Recipes
•After filling in the form for a new recipe or retrieving an existing recipe, the recipe can be edited and saved, written to a memory
card, or a hard copy of the recipe can be printed to your default Windows printer.
•Clicking “Save” brings up the File Handler form where the user can scroll through the existing recipes in order to make sure the
desired name or number are not already taken. If “Save” is clicked on the File Handler form, the application checks to make sure
that the recipe name and number are unique before saving the recipe. In the event of a conflict, the application will prompt the
user to either overwrite the existing recipe or go back to the main recipe screen in order to make changes.

Writing Recipes
•After a recipe has been filled in completely, it may be transferred to a recipe card by clicking the “Write” button. Make sure that
the card is in place on the Writer Box before clicking the “Write” button. A progress bar and a message label will appear at the
bottom of the recipe form during the write process in order to keep the user informed as to the status of the write. If the card
returns the correct response to the PC, the application displays “Writing Successful”. If the timeout period is reached before the
memory card is written, the application displays “Write Has Timed Out”. Generally, this is due to one of three things;
1 - The memory card has been locked from a previous write, 2 - The memory card is not properly in place on the Writer, Or 3 - The
Writer hardware is not properly connected to the PC.
