Preliminary Information

About the Control

MDC on the commercial washer is a programmable control that lets the owner control machine features by pressing sequences of SELECT CYCLE keypads.

MDC allows the owner to program cycle steps, set vend prices, retrieve audit information and run diagnostic tests. Washers shipped from the factory have a default cycle (PERM PRESS/WARM) built in.

IMPORTANT: In the event of a power failure, MDC will not have to be reprogrammed. It is designed with a memory system that will remember how it was programmed (for up to six years) until the electrical power is restored.

IMPORTANT: It is extremely important that the washer has a positive ground and that all mechanical and electrical connections to MDC are made before applying power to or operating the washer.

Glossary of Terms

The following are a few terms and abbreviations to learn. These are referred to throughout the manual:

Power Failure Recovery

If power fails during an active cycle, the cycle status is saved in memory. If door is locked when power is restored, the washer will automatically resume the cycle. If door is unlocked when power is restored, the user must press the START keypad to resume the cycle.

Card Reader Communications

Card Models Only

The control will communicate with a third party card reader, available at extra cost from various card reader manufacturers. Contact the card reader manufacturer of your choice for availability and additional information.

Four-Digit Display – This term refers to the window area of the control that displays values.

LED (Light Emitting Diode) – This term refers to the lights on the keypads and status words of the control.

MDC Identification

SELECT CYCLE Keypads

SELECT CYCLE keypads are used to select the specific washer cycle. These keypads include NORMAL/HOT, NORMAL/WARM, PERM PRESS/ WARM, and DELICATES/COLD. The selection of one of these keypads will light up the corresponding LED. The default cycle is PERM PRESS/WARM. The SELECT CYCLE keypads are not active after the first fill cycle of the washer. Pressing the flashing START keypad will confirm selection and cycle will begin when vend is satisfied.

START Keypad

The START keypad is used to start the washer after the full vend price has been satisfied.

Both the START keypad and the SELECT CYCLE keypads are used in various combinations for programming cycles, retrieving audit information, running diagnostic tests, and other operations described in Entering the Manual Mode.

Display Identification

Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs)

LIGHT EMITTING DIODES (LEDs) are used to indicate the chosen cycle status. Refer to LED descriptions below.

START LED

The START keypad LED flashes whenever the washer is not in a cycle and the full vend price has been satisfied. When the START keypad is pressed, the cycle will begin or resume. The START LED will shut off when the START keypad is pressed.

WASH LED

The WASH LED is lit at the beginning of a wash cycle and will remain lit until the wash cycle is complete.

RINSE LED

The RINSE LED is lit at the beginning of the rinse or extra rinse cycle and will remain lit until the cycle is complete.

SPIN LED

The SPIN LED is lit for all spin cycles.

DOOR LOCKED LED

The DOOR LOCKED LED is lit whenever the door is locked. The door cannot be opened when the DOOR LOCKED LED is lit.

Four 7-Segment Digits

The 7-SEGMENT DIGITS are used to display the time remaining in a cycle, vend price, error messages and descriptive codes. When displaying the time remaining, the time value is displayed on the right side of the display. When displaying the vend price, the value is displayed on the left side of the display. During diagnostic testing or manual programming of the control, these digits will display descriptive codes and values (as described in Entering the Manual Mode).

801184

Washer Operation

Start Up

When power is applied to the washer, the control will display its software version as “SXXX” (“XXX” is the version number) for two seconds. If the control was not powered down during a running cycle, it will enter the Ready Mode.

Ready Mode

When the START keypad is pressed, the door will lock and the washer will start. The START LED will stop flashing and the WASH LED will be lit. The display will change to show the remaining cycle time on the right side of the display. The appropriate LEDs will light while the machine passes through different cycle steps. Any coin entered after the first fill cycle will be added to the total coin counter, but the user will not be able to change cycles.

When a cycle is complete, the Four-Digit Display will show “00” until the washer door is opened, a keypad is pressed, a coin or card is entered, or a start pulse is received. When one of these instances occurs, the Four-Digit Display will revert back to the Ready Mode.

Closing the Washer Door

If the door is not closed when the vend price is satisfied, the Four-Digit Display will show “door” until the door is closed. Once the door is closed, the START keypad must be pressed again to lock door and start cycle. If the door does not lock within 15 seconds of being closed, “E dl” will be displayed indicating a door lock error and the machine will shut off.

FLW2R

Figure 2

In Ready Mode, the PERM PRESS/WARM (default cycle) LED is lit, and the full vend price is displayed as left justified. The user may select a different cycle, if desired. (In card reader machines, if the current cycle has a vend price which differs from the default cycle, the display will be updated to show the new price.) If another cycle is selected, the control will flash the amount needed to satisfy the vend price shown on the display. If the vend price is not satisfied within one minute, the washer control will stop flashing the vend price and return to the default cycle. The display will continue to show the remaining vend price needed to start a cycle and will credit any vend entered by the user.

Vends may be satisfied by a coin drop, start pulses, or by a third party card reader. If a coin drop is used, the remaining vend price will decrease with each coin entry. If start pulses are used, the remaining vend price will decrease with each received pulse. Once the vend price is satisfied, the START LED will begin to flash. If a third party card reader is used, the START LED will begin to flash when a valid cash card is entered into the reader.

Signals

There are four instances when a signal may sound during washer operation. The owner may program the signal to be turned on or off (refer to Programming MDC, option 6). These four instances are listed below:

1. Keypad Depression Signal

The signal will sound for.25 seconds each time a keypad is pressed.

2. Coin Input/Start Pulse Input/Card Insertion Signal

The signal will sound for.25 seconds each time a coin or start pulse is received or a card is entered.

3. Machine Error Signal

The signal will sound for 15 seconds if an error occurs.

4. Vend Satisfaction Signal

The signal will sound one second on and one second off for 10 seconds when the vend price is satisfied.
