4Virtual Quality Management System (VQM) Terminology
Beater Run: |
This D.O.B. timer used to delay the beater motor after |
|
the refrigeration shuts down. Beater Run Range: 0 to 10 |
|
seconds |
Demand Run Comp: The D.O.B. timer used to delay the compressor when product is being drawn. Demand Run Comp. Range: 0 to 12 seconds
Differential/ Hyst: Symbolizes the differential setting. Differential range: 7 to 20°F i.e. if your cut in is at 18°F and your Differential is at 10°F your unit will cut out at 8°F
Dual Diff: The differential used when product is being drawn out of the center spigot. Dual Differential range: 7 to 20°F
Idle: When the unit is cycling on temperature and no product is being dispensed
Idle Run Comp: Delay on break (D.O.B.) timer used for the compressor when the unit is in idle mode/no product being drawn. Idle Run Comp. Range: 0 to 20 seconds
Lock outs: Allows the function of a specific feature/button to be temporarily disabled to deter un-necessary usage of that feature.
Main P.C. Board: Main Control board for the unit, housed behind the trim strip panel. This board has many connectors on it and is responsible for the main operations of the unit.
Membrane Switch: The black Electro Freeze decal visible on the front of the unit, which houses the hidden operator, technician, soft, and hard keys used to navigate the menus
Relay Board A control board located in the main electrical control box. This Board contains no software, only solid state control relays to operate system components.
Single Diff: The differential used when product is being drawn out of one barrel. Single Hysteresis range: 7 to 20°F

4Virtual Quality Management System (VQM) Terminology (continued)
Slope/Demand Slope: Utilizes a function within the system to watch the temperature change as the unit freezes a barrel. If utilizing the slope feature and the unit sees a lack of temperature change during freeze down, the unit will cycle off. This will prevent a freeze up condition due to a long run time. Demand Slope range: 0 to -0.2
Temp. Comp.: Temperature compensation, utilized when the slope feature is turned on. It prevents the system from seeing the
slope temperature curve until a determined temperature is reached. Once that temperature has been reached then the system will examine the curve and shut down if
necessary. Temp. Comp. Range: -10 to 22°F
Temperature Offset: A function that allows temperature adjustment to the operator. Adjustable from 1-9 and 5 being neutral/no change, Lower than 5= colder and greater than 5=warmer
Transducer: An electronic control used to measure the cylinder pressure for mix pump operation.
U.I./ User Interface: The board that lies directly behind the membrane switch on the front panel. This board houses the LED screen that displays the menus and operations. The membrane switch is connected to this board via a ribbon cable. This board also has its own software.

1. Function Buttons (Four)
Pressing any of these buttons will activate the icon directly above in the display screen. Left side (L1 & L2), Right Side (R1& R2).
2. OFF Key
When this symbol is pressed, the left side of unit will shut off. The beater motor and compressor will not operate.
3. Navigation Pad (Up/Down = Cabinet ON/OFF)
Used to navigate the menu structure as well as turning the cabinet on/off.
UP Arrow - Energizes Cabinet refrigeration only when freezer is in OFF position. DWN Arrow - De-energizes Cabinet refrigeration only when CAB Refrig is ON. See Troubleshooting section for Operator accessible controls.
4. Freeze Symbol
When this symbol is pressed, the unit will enter the automatic freeze mode. Both the hopper and cylinder compressors will energize to refrigerate product to settings in program. Use this button for DAY mode operation to maintain product in “ready to serve” state.

5. Left or Right side Control Indicator
Left indicates controls for left side cylinder and hopper. “Right” Indicates controls for right side of freezer cylinder and hopper.
6. Mode of Operation Indicator
There are three primary modes of operation:
a.OFF –This is the indicator when power is applied to freezer and when (OFF) button is pressed. In this mode, the refrigeration and beater motor will not operate.
b.FRZ – This is the indicator when Freeze button is pressed. In this mode, the freezer is in automatic freeze mode and both the beater motor and refrigeration will activate as needed. Use this position for dispensing product from freezer. Hopper will also be refrigerated as needed to maintain product below 41°F.
Important: Do not use the freeze position with water or sanitizer in the cylinder or hopper. The freezer will be damaged.
c. Night – This is the indicator when Night button is pressed. In this mode, an energy-saving feature will activate and reduce product refrigeration. The freezer will automatically cycle to maintain temperatures in the cylinder and hopper below 41°F and keep product from deteriorating. Use this position when the freezer will not be in use for periods of more than one hour.
7. Wash or Clean Mode
Press the function button directly below icon to activate clean mode.
8. Information Window
This window is normally blank when unit is functioning properly. This window will give you indication when mix in hopper is low and other error messages. Refer to Troubleshooting Section of manual for details on error messages.
9. Night Mode Operation
As pictured, the Soft Key located below the image of the Moon will allow the machine to be switched into NIGHT refrigeration mode. This feature is used at the closing of the day’s business to hold the product at safe storage temperatures but not in a frozen state.

Figure 7-2
The operator menu will show up on the screen (figure 7-2). The cursor will highlight the selected sub-menu (i.e. Basic Setting, Actual Temps, etc.), use the Arrow Buttons to move the cursor up or down to the desired sub-menu. Once the desired menu is highlighted, in
this example we will use Basic Settings, press the select ( ) button to enter the sub-menu. Product Type and Temperature Offset will be shown for left and right barrel. Use the Arrow Buttons to move the cursor to highlight the value to be changed, once highlighted press the select button and the cursor will now be blinking. While the cursor is blinking the value may now be changed using the left or right Arrow Buttons, once you have reached the desired
setting press select ( ) one more time, the cursor will now stop blinking, this indicates that the value change has been stored. Follow these steps to change any other desired settings, once complete you may use the far right Function button to exit the operator menu or just wait
and the menu will time out and return to the Home screen.
