the center of the screen.

AUTOTUNE IN PROGRESS or PROCESS NOT ACTIVE will inform the
operator of the current status of this feature.
3. At this point the operator can return back to the
DRYER MENU or MAIN MENU by
touching the appropriate button on the screen.
Shutting Down the Dryer
1. Turn off the conveying system supplying the drying hopper and/or machine. Press
the shutdown button for the dryer to complete its cycle.
2. When processing is complete, close the hopper slide gate and shut down any in-line
companion equipment, such as the aftercooler.
3. If the dryer is shut down using the shutdown button on the dryer status screen, the
process heater will shut off and the bed regeneration process will be completed.
When the dryer is started at a later date the process air will be directed through the
bed that was regenerated last.
4. If the dryer control switch is turned off without using the dryer shutdown feature, the
dryer will stop immediately. When the dryer is started at a later date, the process
air will be directed through the last bed that was being used when the dryer control
switch was turned off. If a bed was being regenerated when the dryer control switch
was turned off, the regeneration process would begin over again on that same bed.
