15 [d] CONTROLS AND ADJUSTMENTS (Alpine/Alpine “C” Board) The Dip Switch is factory-adjusted to the following positions: Switch Nos. 1 and 2: Used for adjustment of the Defrost Timer. The Defrost Timer starts counting when the Thermistor reads a certain temperature at the Evaporator outlet.
16 1) Defrost Control A thermistor (Semiconductor) is used for a defrost control sensor. The resistance varies depending on the Suction Line temperatures. The Thermistor detects the temperature of the Evaporator outlet to start the Defrost Timer. No adjustment is required.
17 3) Drain Timer The Drain Timer is factory-adjusted, and no adjustment is required. SETTING TIME Dip Switch Dip Switch No. 3 No. 4 T1 T2 OFF OFF 10 seconds 150 seconds ON OFF 10 seconds 180 seconds .
18 5) Bin Control CAUTION When the ambient temperature is below 45°F, the Bin Control Thermostat operates to stop the icemaker even if the Ice Storage Bin is empty. When the Thermostat is set in the prohibited range, the icemaker operates continuously even if the Ice Storage Bin is filled with ice.
19 The unit should start the freeze cycle after 1 minute ± 5 seconds from the resistor connection. 3) Check the Controller Board by using test program of the Controller Board. (i) Disconnect the Connector K1 from the Controller Board. Set the Dip Switch No.
20 3. SWITCHES Two control switches are used to control operation in the KML Series Modular Crescent Cubers. These switches are referred to as the “Control Switch” and the “Service Switch.” [a] CONTROL SWITCH The Control Switch is located on the lower left section of the control box when facing the front of the machine.
