11 2. Features a) Maximum W ater Supply P eriod – 6 minutes Inlet water v alve opening, in the harvest cycle , is limited by the harvest timer . The water v alv e cannot remain open longer than the maximum period. The water v alve can close in less than six minutes if the harvest cycle is completed.
12 f) LED Lights and A udible Alarm Saf eties The red LED indicates proper control v oltage and will remain on unless a control v oltage problem occurs . At star tup a 5 second delay occurs while the board conducts an internal timer check. A shor t beep occurs when the power s witch is tur ned OFF .
13 No . of Beeps (e v er y 3 sec.) T ype of Alarm Notes 6 Low V oltage (92V ac ±5% or less) Red LED will tur n off if v oltage protection operates . The control v oltage saf eties automatically reset when v oltage is corrected.
14 Check a thermistor f or resistance b y using the f ollowing procedure: 1) Disconnect the connector K3 on the board. 2) Remov e the ther mistor . See "V .H. Remov al and Replacement of Ther mistor ." 3) Immerse the ther mistor sensor por tion in a glass containing ice and water f or 2 or 3 minutes .
15 e) Pump-Out Frequency Contr ol (dip s witch 5 & 6) The pump motor drains the w ater tank at the frequency set b y the pump-out frequency control. The pump-out frequency control is f actor y-adjusted to drain the w ater tank e very 10 cycles, and no adjustment is required.
16 shut down the unit. Howe v er , to pre v ent incomplete batches of ice from f or ming on the e v aporator , the control board will only shut down the machine within the first 5 minutes of the freeze cycle .
17 3) Check the 115 v olt input at the 10-pin connector . Check the bro wn wire at pin #10 to a white neutral wire f or 115 volts . (Alwa ys choose a white neutral wire to estab lish a good neutral connection when chec king v oltages .) A jumper also f eeds 115 v olts into pin #7.
18 b) CIRCULA TE When the ser vice s witch is activ e and placed in the CIRCULA TE position, power is supplied to the pump only . This operation can be used to circulate cleaner f or extended periods of time ov er the outside surf ace of the e vaporator .
