Operation Modes
General Modes of Operation
In each mode of operation, the user may press keypads 
or communicate with the control to change the 
displayed menu.
Power-up Mode
The control enters this mode at power-up. After the 
control completes operation in the Power-up Mode it 
will enter Idle Mode. The display is blank during 
Power-up Mode.
Idle Mode
The control is ready for operation in Idle Mode. 
Control can display different menus depending on user 
input (keypad press, opening or closing the loading 
door, or PDA communication). If there is no user input 
for one minute, control will turn off the LCD 
backlight. The control will light when there is user 
input. If there is no user input for 10 minutes, the 
display will go blank. 
If the control is in Idle Mode, Cycle Menu is 
displayed, loading and lint door closed, and the
 
keypad is pressed, control will enter Run Mode. 
Run Mode
The Control enters Run Mode during a cycle. The 
Display shows machine cycle time remaining, the 
current cycle type, segment, temperature, and 
graphical indicators. Loading and lint doors are closed 
during Run Mode. Press
keypad to stop cycle 
and enter Pause Mode. Press
keypad to enter 
Run Diagnostic Menu. Control enters Pause Mode if 
loading or lint door opens. Press
to Rapid 
Advance.
Rapid Advance Mode
If the Rapid Advance Option is enabled, the user can 
advance a running machine cycle by pressing the 
keypad. In a Time Dry cycle, pressing the
 
keypad will decrease the remaining time by one 
minute. Pressing and holding the
keypad will 
decrease the remaining time by four minutes per 
second until the end of the cycle.
In the Auto-Dry and Moisture Dry cycles, pressing the 
keypad will advance the cycle to the next 
enabled segment. Note that Auto-Dry cycles only have 
one programmable segment.
In the Cool Down segment, pressing the
keypad 
will decrease the remaining time by one minute.
When the cycle is completed, the audit counter, Total 
Rapid Advance Cycles is incremented rather than the 
Total Machine Cycles audit counter. In addition this 
cycle is recorded in the audit list “Last 25 Machine 
Cycles Completed”. If the Rapid Advance Option is 
disabled preventing a manual Rapid Advance, the user 
may still execute a Rapid Advance using the PDA or 
PC. Refer to UniLinc PC and PDA Application User 
Instructions
 for additional information on using a 
PDA or PC to Rapid Advance a cycle.
Pause Mode
If
keypad is pressed or the loading or lint door is 
opened while in Run Mode, control enters Pause 
Mode.
If the door is opened then closed, the control will 
prompt the user to press
to resume the cycle. 
If
is pressed while already in Pause Mode, the 
control will enter End of Cycle Mode.
Error Mode
This mode will be entered to display all fatal machine 
errors.
Communication Mode
This mode is entered whenever the control is 
communicating with a PDA or a network. Refer to 
UniLinc PC and PDA Application User Instructions.
Cool Down Mode
The control enters the Cool Down Mode after the heat 
segment of the cycle is completed or fatal error occurs. 
The control turns the heater off and for steam heated 
units turns the damper motor on. The cool down 
segment will end once the cool down temperature has 
been reached or the programmed cool down time 
expires, which ever happens first.
