Press to continue to INP A_VHDSF_M.
Page 4
4-1. INFORMATION MODE 5. INP A_VHDSF_M
FUNCTIONS (Continued) Press to view the status of components and inputs. If the
input signal is detected, an identifying letter is displayed (see
below). If the signal is not detected, “_” is displayed.
With the COOK/PUMP switch in the COOK position, and all
inputs detected, “H_ P_ A_VHDSF_M” shows in the
display. See below for definition of codes.
A = COOK/PUMP switch in COOK position
B = COOK/PUMP switch in PUMP position
V = Volts – 24-VAC detected
H = High Limit - If “H” is present, the high limit is good;
if “H” is missing, the high limit is tripped (overheated) or
faulty
D = DRAIN SWITCH-If “D” is present, the drain handle is
Closed; if “D” is missing, the drain is open or faulty
S = COOK/PUMP switch on interlock circuit: If “S” is
present, the COOK/PUMP switch is in the COOK position;
if the “S” is missing, the power switch is either off, failed, or
wired incorrectly
F = FAN
P = PV – Detects 24 V jumper to PV terminal – gas fryers only
M = MV – Detects 24 V jumper to MV terminal – electric
fryers only
Model 8000 Computron
Press to view the specific status of each input. An
underscore (“_”) indicates the input is not presently detected.
A checkmark (“v” ) indicates the signal is detecting a normal
input. A blinking (“X”) indicates the signal is presently
detected, but is detected as a half-wave (partially failed)
input.
The V, H, D, S, F, P and M signals below are wired in
series. The first signal missing out of this sequence
generally causes all signals to the right of it to be
missing as well.
Press to continue on to OUTP H* P_.

4-1. INFORMATION MODE 6. OUTP H* P_ (F*H*P_ for gas units)
FUNCTIONS (Continued) This mode displays the status of components and outputs. If
the output signal is detected, an identifying letter is displayed
(see below), followed by an “*”. If the output is off, “_” is
displayed.
F = Fan output (gas only)
H = Heat output
P = Pressure output
On gas units, if fan is on, “F*” shows in display. If fan is
off, “F_” shows in display. If controls sense a problem with
the fan output, “F*” shows in display, with the “*” flashing.
If heat is on, “H*” shows in display. If heat is off, “H_”
shows in display. If controls sense a problem with the heat
output, “H*” shows in display, with the “*” flashing.
If pressure is on, “P*” shows in display. If pressure is off,
“P_” shows in display. If controls sense a problem with the
pressure output, “P*” shows in display, with the “*” flashing.
Press to view the amp “DRAW” status of each output.
“F v”, “H v” and “P v” in the display means the amps are
good. A flashing “X” behind the F, H or P means too much
current.
Press to view the No Connect/Ground (“NC/GND”)
status of each output. This monitors a possible problem with
the relays on the output PC board.
“F v”, “H v” and “P v” in the display means everything on
the output PC board is good. A flashing “X” behind the F, H
or P means a problem exists.
Press to view the outputs and inputs (see step 10)
together.
Press to continue onto the OIL TMP reading.
7. OIL TMP
This step shows the present peanut shortening temperature.
The display shows “7. OIL TMP (temp.)”.

4-1. INFORMATION MODE 8. CPU TMP
FUNCTIONS (Continued) This step shows the present PC board temperature.
Press to continue on to the ANALOG reading.
9. ANALOG <1> 2.86V
This step displays the present status of any channel of the
controller’s a to d converter. This feature may be useful to a
technician troubleshooting a problem with the fryer or
controller.
The displayed value can be toggled between volts and bits
by pressing . If the displayed value has a decimal point,
it is voltage (0 to 5 VDC). If no decimal point is shown, the
value is a-to-d bits (0 - 4095).
Press to continue onto AMPS reading.
10. AMPS 33 33 33
This display shows the present readings from the fryer’s amps
sensors, which monitor the electrical current supplied to the
heaters.
These values indicate the current through each supply leg to
the heaters. These values do not necessarily correspond
directly to the current through an individual heater coil.
The AMPS values should normally cycle on and off with
the heat light, and all three values should be about the same.
Press and hold to exit Information Mode at any
time, or after 2 minutes, controls automatically exit
back to normal operation.
