Non-Coin Computer Dip Switch Features
The dip switch (refer to the illustration below) is an 8-position red and white SPST switch mounted on the
back of the computer. It has the following capabilities:
Switch #1 - On dryers equipped with the reversing basket (tumbler) option, by putting this switch into the closed
position, the operator can select either reversing or non-reversing basket (tumbler) action when
programming the computer at the start of each drying load. When this dip switch is put into the open
position, the basket (tumbler) will always have reverse action. On non-reversing dryers, this switch
should be opened. Display will show “Sr.” Press “Enter/Start” for reversing action or press “0”
for non-reversing.
Switch #2 and 3 - It is important on reversing dryers that the basket (tumbler) come to a complete stop before
it changes its rotational direction. These two (2) switches control this stop time. When both
switches are in the closed position, the stop time is 6-seconds. When switch #2 is opened and
#3 is closed, the stop time is 10-seconds. When switch #2 is closed and switch #3 is opened,
the stop time is 14-seconds. When both switches are opened, the stop time is 18-seconds.
On non-reversing dryers, these switches should be closed.
Switch #4 - If switch #4 is closed, the computer will display the operating temperature of the dryer. This is only
used for servicing the dryer. This switch should be closed only after the dryer is running. For
normal dryer operation, this switch must be in the open position.
Switch #5 - By placing this switch into the closed position, the dryer will only operate in the automatic mode. On
dryers equipped with the optional automatic/manual keyboard (touch pad), this switch should be
put into the opened position.
Switch #6 - When the dryer is being serviced, the operating temperature of the dryer can be displayed (dip
switch #4 is closed) in either Fahrenheit (switch #6 open) or Celsius (switch #6 closed).
Switch #7 - On dryers equipped with the optional reversing basket (tumbler), the number of reverses per minute
can be set up by this dip switch. The basket (tumbler) will reverse once per minute if this switch is
opened, or twice per minute if this switch is closed. On non-reversing dryers, the position of the
switch is unimportant.
