SECTION 1 SETUP & OPERATION
1.1 Initial Setup
See Figure 1-1. Turn the sawmill control key switch to the ON (#1) position. Simple Set
will start up in manual mode. As the control powers up, the software revision is displayed.
This information can be helpful should you require service.
In manual mode, press the Up arrow to enter the setup menus.
Set Speed: Available values are 1 - 5. The default value is 5. Lowering the Set Speed will
assist in achieving the desired blade height setting in situations where the up/down
chains or mast pads are too loose.
Use the Up and Down buttons to scroll to the desired Set Speed setting.
Press the Auto button to scroll to the Units menu or the Manual button to exit.
Units: Simple Set can display units in inches (default) or millimeters.
Push the Up or Down buttons to scroll to the desired unit setting.
Press the Auto button to scroll to the Language menu or the Manual button to
exit.

Language: To date, the only available language is English.
Press the Auto button to scroll back to the Set Speed menu or the Manual but-
ton to exit.
1.2 Operation
Manual: With Simple Set in manual mode, operate the sawmill up/down system as nor-
mal with the sawmll control drum switch. The display will show a ‘D’ when the drum switch
is pushed down and a ‘U’ when pushed up.
Auto: With Simple Set in auto mode, the saw head will move down the increment dis-
played when the sawmill control drum switch is activated in the down position. The saw
head will move up as normal when the drum switch is activated in the up position. Two
sets of values can be stored in the control.
Push the Auto button to display the Set1 value. Push Auto again to toggle to
the Set2 value.
While either Set1 or Set2 value is displayed, use the Up and Down buttons to
adjust the value in 1/16” (or 1mm) increments.
Bump the up/down drum switch down to move the blade to the next increment. Holding
the drum switch up or down will bypass Simple Set and move the saw head until the drum
switch is released.
If the saw head is raised before the next cut, pushing the drum switch down will return the
saw head to the original position plus the increment value.
Push the Manual button to exit auto mode.
Turn the sawmill control key switch to the OFF (#0) position to power off Simple Set.

1.3.2 Diagnostic Lights
See Figure 1-2. LED indicator lights are provided on the encoder sensor housing and the
display circuit board and H-bridge module inside the Simple Set control box. Observing
the LED lights during operation can help identify problems with the sensor, drum switches
or Simple Set control.
During normal operation:
As the up/down gearbox shaft spins to move the saw head up or down, the sensor
LED will illuminate and brighten. After each complete revolution of the shaft, the
LED will turn off then illuminate and brighten.
In manual mode, both control box LEDs will illuminate red when the drum switch is
activated in the down direction and green when the up/down drum switch is acti-
vated in the up direction. Both LEDs will turn off when the drum switch is released.
In auto mode, both control box LEDs operate the same (green) in the up direction
as in manual mode. When the drum switch is bumped in the down direction, both
LEDs will illuminate red and then the display LED will immediately turn off. When
the blade reaches the increment value set by the Simple Set control, the LED on the
H-bridge will turn off. If the drum switch is held down or the saw head coasts past
the increment, the H-bridge LED will illuminate green indicating the blade will move
up to return to the increment value. When the blade reaches the increment value,
the H-bridge LED will turn off.
