Press the low button once to highlight “low key settings”and press the medium to select.12. Repeat items 4 through 7.13. Transition the key switch back to the normal positionand remove key.Programming Non-Coin (OPL) Cycles __Choosing Cycle to ProgramAt the “SELECT CYCLE” message, use the UP and DOWNARROW keys to select the cycle that you would like to change.Once the desired cycle is highlighted, press and hold theSTOP and then ENTER. This will allow the user to view andedit each particular cycle’s settings. Using the UP and DOWNARROW keys will allow the user to scan through the settings.Pressing the ENTER key while the setting is highlighted, willallow the user to adjust that particular setting.!NoteA cycle can only be programmed if the controlleris in the “SELECT CYCLE” state, no fault conditionexists, and all doors are closed.Programming Cycle NameThis option will allow the user to rename the cycle that waschosen under the “CYCLE SETTINGS” message. Up to 16characters are available for each cycle name.When “CYCLE NAME” is chosen by pressing the ENTER key,the display will transition to an edit “CYCLE NAME” menu.The name will change to 16 underlined character spaces.Pressing STOP will exit out of the “CYCLE NAME” menu andnone of the changes will be saved.Example:A _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _➝Use the UP and DOWN ARROW keys to scroll through theavailable characters. The available characters are A-Z, space,0-9, and ➝ . Once the ENTER key is pressed, the nextcharacter can now be changed.Example:T A _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _➝Once the last character is entered, choose the ➝ and pressENTER. This will save the new cycle name.!NoteThere is no need to enter spaces in any of theremaining character spaces. Once the ➝ isselected, all remaining characters will become spaces.Programming Cycle SettingsTo change a particular cycle’s settings, use the UP and DOWNARROW keys to scroll through the selection and the ENTERkey to save your selection.CYCLE TYPEAUTOMANUALCYCLE TIME(Only applies if MANUAL cycle is selected)0 to 99 M (minutes)DRY LEVEL(Only applies if AUTO cycle is selected)FIN (FINISHING)DRYXDRYDRY TEMP100º to 160º F (degrees Fahrenheit)38º to 71º C (degrees Celsius)COOL DOWN TIME(Only applies if MANUAL cycle is selected)0 to 99 M (minutes)COOL DOWN TEMP(Only applies if MANUAL cycle is selected)70º to 100º F (degrees Fahrenheit)21º to 38º C (degrees Celsius)REVERSING MODEOFF / ONREV SPIN TIME120 to 240 S (seconds)REV STOP TIME5 to 10 S (seconds)113607-1 www.amdry.com 7

Faults __________________________________Exhaust ProbeAn exhaust probe fault occurs when the control detects thatthe exhaust temperature transducer is reading a temperaturethat is out of the probe’s normal operating temperature rangefor more than 3-seconds. There is an automatic fault clearingfeature for this fault. If the fault condition no longer exists, thecontrol will clear the fault condition and return to READY Mode.Axial ProbeAn axial thermistor probe fault occurs when the control detectsthat the axial thermistor is reading a temperature that is outof the probe’s normal operating temperature range for morethan 30-seconds, usually an open or shorted probe condition.There is an automatic fault clearing feature for this fault. If thefault condition no longer exists, the control will clear the faultcondition and return to READY Mode.Sail Switch ClosedA sail switch closed fault occurs when a cycle is starting upfrom either READY Mode, PAUSE Mode or any other idle state.Once a temperature/cycle is selected the control will start thetime and verify the sail switch is open, if it is not, the controlwill display on the screen that the control is “STARTING” andwill not turn on the FAN, DRIVE or HEAT. The control will allowthe sail switch 10-seconds to open before the control faultsout with a SAIL SWITCH CLOSED FAULT. Once a SAILSWITCH CLOSED FAULT is detected the control will log thefault and will not allow the cycle to continue. The control willdisplay “SAIL SWITCH CLOSED FAULT, SELECT CYCLE TORESTART, when the fault is detected.Sail Switch OpenA sail switch open fault occurs when a cycle is starting fromeither READY Mode, PAUSE Mode or any other idle state. Ifthe sail switch does not close within the allotted 10-secondsthe control will log the fault and will not allow the cycle tocontinue. The control will display “SAIL SWITCH OPEN FAULT,CHECK MAIN DOOR AND LINT ACCESS AND SELECT CYCLETO RESTART”. A sail switch open fault can also occur once acycle is in process. If the control detects that the sail switchhas opened, the heat will immediately turn off and if the sailswitch fails to close within the allotted 30-seconds, the controlwill fault and display “SAIL SWITCH OPEN FAULT, CHECKMAIN DOOR AND LINT ACCESS AND SELECT CYCLE TORESTART”.Rotation Sensor FaultA rotation sensor fault occurs when the control is in a cycleand does not detect any rotation sensor pulses in more than10-seconds.Gen 2 Card Reader Communication FaultThis fault occurs when the control has not received a healthcheck function from the Gen 2 debit card reader in30-seconds. If this fault occurs in Ready or Vending Modes,the control will log the fault and display “OUT OF ORDER”.Once the control enters READY Mode and the fault has notbeen corrected or cleared, the control will display “OUT OFORDER”. The fault is self clearing; therefore, oncecommunication is reestablished, the control will clear theOUT OF ORDER condition and allow full dryer functionalityagain.Exhaust High Temp FaultAn exhaust high temperature fault occurs when the exhaustprobe is detecting a tumbler temperature that is 20° F abovethe maximum dryer temperature set point for more than10-seconds.Blocked Coin DropThis fault occurs if the control senses a blockage in the coininput. If the coin input is blocked for more than 8-secondsthe control will go to out of order and will not allow the controlto start a cycle. This fault has both automatic and manualfault clearing. If the condition is corrected the control willrecover from out of order immediately after the blockage isno longer seen.Events _________________________________Radiant Sensor Fault CountA radiant sensor fault count will occur when a gas modeldryer attempts to turn on the burner system and neverreceives a 120V return signal within a predefined time.Burner Igniter Fault CountA burner ignition fault count will occur when a gas modeldryer attempts to turn on the burner system and receives a120V on the burner return signal but it does not transition toa 0V return signal within a predefined time.Exhaust High LimitThis location is a count of the times that the exhaust highlimit has been sensed in the open position.Bad Coin CountThis location is a count of all the bad coin occurrences thatwere detected from the coin input.Forward Rotation Sensor FaultA forward rotation fault pertains only to reversing machines.The way this fault works is if the dryer is reversing and isrunning a cycle that has the reversing option enabled, if arotation sensor fault condition is detected, the drive outputwould be shut off. Then the dryer will transition to a reversingdrive output. If the dryer continues to run without an issue,the machine will continue to run with the forward drive outputdisabled until the next cycle is started. If the Reversing Modealso fails the control will enter a ROTATION SENSOR FAULTdisabling the machine. The next cycle should operate withboth drive outputs, that way, if the issue still exists the controlwill fault out again disabling the fault drive output.Reverse Rotation Sensor FaultREVERSE ROTATION SENSOR FAULT is identical toFORWARD ROTATION FAULT, however it pertains to thereversing drive output instead of the forward drive output.F.S.S. Disabled – Water Not ConnectedThis event pertains only to machines with a fire detectionsystem. If the control senses a lack of water pressure, thisevent will appear.113607-1 www.amdry.com 13
