SPECIAL FEATURES
The LCD and LED dryers come with several
new features not available with the earlier
versions of the Neptune dryers. By pressing
a combination of keys, the dryer can be
placed into an Advertising Mode or into a
Service Mode for the service technician.
ADVERTISING MODE
This mode will continuously display the LEDs
on the keyboard or illuminate the touch
screen.
LED Dryer
Pressing the damp dry and sensor dry keys
for 5 seconds will start the washer in the
Advertising mode. No functions will be run
except illuminating the LEDs.
All the LEDs will light within 1.5 seconds in the
following order and repeat: start/pause, signal,
wrinkle prevent, wrinkle release, air fluff, damp
dry, less dry, normal dry, more dry, very dry,
cool down, wrinkle prevent indicator,
temperatures (regular, medium, low, extra low),
sensor dry, time dry, time(+), time(-), 7
segment display.
Enter and exit the advertising mode by using
the same 2 key sequence or unplug the
power cord.
LCD Dryer
This mode will continuously display the touch
screen on the keyboard.
Pressing the favorites and back keys for 5
seconds will start the dryer in the Advertising
mode. No functions will be run except
illumination of the touch screen panel.
While in advertising mode, the display will
cycle through eleven screens. If the touch
screen or any key (except off) is pressed, the
advertising sequence will be interrupted and
the control will go to the Interactive State.
When this occurs, the user is able to navigate
through the control as normal (including
setting favorites, setting preferences, etc.),
but the machine will not be allowed to run a
cycle. The only methods of exiting the
advertising mode is to remove power from
the machine or to press and hold both the
help key and the favorites key for 5 seconds.
The off key will not be active in the service
mode.
After 5 minutes of inactivity in the advertising
mode, the control will time out and return to
advertising mode and the advertising
sequence will begin again. When the control
times out in this manner, any settings or
changes that the user had made while in the
advertising mode will not be remembered.
SERVICE /DIAGNOSTIC MODE
This mode provides service personnel the
ability to verify the operation of the dryer.
The service mode can be implemented in the
middle of any dry cycle. While in the service
mode, the servicer can start special service
tests such as a system check mode,
membrane pad check, display software
revision number and display diagnostic/help
code listings. (See Service Mode Table) The
diagnostic/help code information displayed
provides information about the machine.
