Parameter list
SOFTWARE VERSION
The name of the installed software le is shown.
RESET
Only shown if any parameter’s default value has been changed.
If option ”YES” is pushed, all the parameters are reset to their
factory position.
TEMPERATURE PR1
Setting of the drying temperature for program MEMBRANE.
TEMPERATURE PR2
Setting of the drying temperature for program WITHOUT MEM-
BRANE.
TEMPERATURE PR3
Setting of the drying temperature for program STATIONWEAR.
TEMPERATURE PR4
Setting of the drying temperature for program TIMED DRYING.
TEMPERATURE REACTIVATION
Setting of the drying temperature for the reactivation phase.
During this phase the evacuation fan is swithed off. The tempe-
rature inside the cabinet increases in order to improve the
hardening of impregnation solvents.
HYSTERESIS
Controls the hysteresis. FC 20 is preset to 50 °F /10 ºC. When
the working temperature is attained the heating elements are
turned off. When the temperature has dropped 50 °F /10 ºC the
heating starts again.
HYSTERESIS REACTIVATION
Controls the hysteresis during the reactivation phase.
COOL DOWN
After the heating phase and the reactivation phase (if activated)
the cabinet has a period of cool down to recondition the laundry
and lower the temperature within the cabinet.
ΔF STOP AUTOMATIC DRYING
Adjusts the automatic drying function. Can be changed if
needed. If the value is decreased (negative %-value), the drying
time is prolonged for all automatic programs.
MEMBRANE PR1
Turns the MEMBRANE program ON/OFF in user mode.
WITHOUT MEMBRANE PR2
Turns the WITHOUT MEMBRANE program ON/OFF in user
mode.
STATIONWEAR PR3
Turns the STATIONWEAR program ON/OFF in user mode.

TIMED DRYING PR4
Turns the TIMED DRYING program ON/OFF in user mode.
REACTIVATION TIME PR1
Decides the duration of the reactivation phase for program
MEMBRANE. If the time is set to 0:00h the program skips to
cool down immediately after the drying phase is nished.
REACTIVATION TIME PR2
Decides the duration of the reactivation phase for program
WITHOUT MEMBRANE. If the time is set to 0:00h the program
skips to cool down immediately after the drying phase is nis-
hed.
REACTIVATION TIME PR3
Decides the duration of the reactivation phase for program STA-
TIONWEAR. If the time is set to 0:00h the program skips to cool
down immediately after the drying phase is nished.
MAXIMUM TIME
Controls the maximum time that can be set at timed drying.
The parameter also controls the maximum drying time for the
automatic programs.
DELAY START
This parameter activates delayed start. If the parameter is set
to ”ON” the user is given the choice to delay the program start
with up to 24:00h.
CHILD LOCK
It is possible to activate a child lock function. When set to ”ON”
the user has to press and hold the ”P” button while pushing
start.
SOUND
In mode “ON” there is a beep sound every time an active button
is pushed or when a drying program is nished.
LOGOTYPE
Turns the PODAB-logo, shown on the welcome screen, ON/
OFF.
LANGUAGE
The cabinet has seven languages.
COIN
The cabinet can be connected to a booking system. To activate
the function, set the parameter in position “ON”. To start a pro-
gram a signal to the COIN plinth is needed.
COIN SIGNAL TYPE
This parameter is only visible if COIN is activated. COIN is used
when the cabinet is connected to a booking system. Choose
position depending on which type of signal the booking system
is sending.
NORMALLY OPENED should be chosen when there is a signal
to the COIN plinth when the cabinet has been booked. A run-
ning program will nish even if the signal is interrupted.
NORMALLY CLOSED should be chosen when there is a signal
to the COIN plinth when the cabinet has not been booked.
PULSE means that the cabinet is booked per drying period.
One pulse gives one drying period.
OPERATING HOURS
The parameter shows the total amount of hours the cabinet has
been running. Saved on the memory unit even if the power to
the control board is cut.
ERROR LOG
Error messages are memorized in a log. If the log is empty the
screen shows the text ”EMPTY”. If there are messages that
have been logged it is possible to toggle with the P button.
When all errors have been displayed the log can be cleared.

Error messages
TEMP SENSOR FAILURE
The control board gets no signal from the temperature sensor. The
cabinet is out of function until the error is solved. Check if the sen-
sor is connected correctly on the main control board, and that the
cable from the sensor to the board is intact.
MAX TEMP REACHED
If the temperature registered by the temperature sensor rises
above 212 °F / 100°C a cool down period starts. The heat is re-
activated when the temperature has dropped to 122 °F / 50°C.
OVERHEATING
The control board’s electronically overheat protection has been
activated. The error code is generated if the temperature reg-
istered by the temperature sensor rises above 212 °F / 100ºC,
twice within 30 minutes.
Control that the fan motors are working as they should. Also
control the temperature sensor and that the cable from the
board is intact.
MAX TIME REACHED
This code is generated if the maximum drying time of 5h (de-
fault) is reached. The drying time can exceed the limit if the
cabinet is over loaded or if the textiles has a very high residual
moisture level when the program starts. If desired the maximum
time can be adjusted.
HUMIDITY SENSOR
Control board gets no signal from the temperature sensor. Con-
trol that the sensor is connected correctly on the main control
board and that the cable from the sensor to the board is intact.
