2. CONTROLLER BOARD
[a] SOLID-STATE CONTROL
1)A HOSHIZAKI exclusive solid-state control is employed in Modular Crescent Cubers.
2)A Printed Circuit Board (hereafter called “Controller Board”) includes a stable and high quality control system.
3)All models are pretested and factory-adjusted.
[b] CONTROLLER BOARD
CAUTION
1.Fragile, handle very carefully.
2.A controller board contains integrated circuits, which are susceptible to failure due to static discharge. It is especially important to touch the metal part of the unit when handling or replacing the board.
3.Do not touch the electronic devices on the board or the back of the board to prevent damage to the board.
4.Do not change wiring and connections. Do not misconnect K3, K4 and K5, because the same connector is used for the Thermistor (white), Float Switch (black), and Mechanical Bin Control (red).
(For machines with thermostat, there is no connection on K4.)
5.Always replace the whole board assembly when it goes bad.
6.Do not short out power supply to test for voltage.

Features of Control Products “E” Controller Board
1) Maximum Water Supply Period - 6 minutes
Water Solenoid Valve opening, in the Defrost (Harvest) Cycle, is limited by the defrost timer. The Water Valve cannot remain open longer than the
maximum period. The Water Valve can close in less than six minutes if the defrost cycle is completed.
14
2)Defrost Timer
The defrost cycle starts when the Float Switch opens and completes the freeze cycle.
But the Defrost Timer does not start counting until the Thermistor senses 48°F at the
Evaporator outlet. The period from the end of the freeze cycle up to the point of the
Thermistor's sensing varies depending on the ambient and water temperatures.
3)High Temperature Safety - 127 ± 7°F
The temperature of the suction line in the refrigerant circuit is limited by the High
Temperature Safety.
During the defrost cycle the Evaporator temperature rises. The Thermistor senses 48°F and starts the Defrost Timer. After the Defrost Timer counts down to zero, the normal freeze cycle begins. If the Evaporator temperature continues to rise, the Thermistor will sense the rise in temperature and at 127 ± 7°F the Thermistor operates the High Temperature Safety.
This High Temperature Safety shuts down the circuit and the icemaker automatically stops.
This High Temperature Safety protects the unit from excessive temperature. The Control
Board will Beep every 3 seconds. The white Reset Button on the Control Board must be pressed with power on to reset the Safety.
4)Low Water Safety
If the Pump Motor is operated without water, the mechanical seal can fail. To prevent this type of failure, the Controller Board checks the position of the Float Switch at the end of the initial one minute water fill cycle and at the end of each defrost cycle.
If the Float Switch is in the up position (electrical circuit closed), the Controller Board changes to the ice making cycle. If the Float Switch is in the down position (electrical circuit open), the Controller Board changes to a one minute water fill cycle before starting the ice making cycle. This method allows for a Low Water Safety shut down to protect the
Water Pump from mechanical seal failure.
For water-cooled model, if the water is shut off, the unit is protected by the High Pressure Switch.
5)High Voltage Cutout
The maximum allowable supply voltage of this icemaker is limited by the High Voltage Cutout.
If miswiring (especially on single phase 3 wire models) causes excessive voltage on the
Controller Board, the High Voltage Cutout shuts down the circuit in 3 seconds and the icemaker automatically stops. When the proper supply voltage is resumed, the icemaker automatically starts running again. The Control Board will signal this problem using 7 Beeps every 3 seconds.
6)LED Lights and Audible Alarm Safeties
The red LED indicates proper control voltage and will remain on unless a control voltage problem occurs. At startup a 5 second delay occurs while the board conducts an internal timer check. A short beep occurs when the power switch is turned ON or OFF.

The green LED’s 1-4 represent the corresponding relays and energize and sequence 5 seconds from initial start-up as follows:

The built in safeties shut down the unit and have alarms as follows:
1 beep every 3 sec. = High Evaporator Temperature >127 ° F.
Check for defrost problem (stuck HGV or relay), hot water entering unit, stuck headmaster, or shorted thermistor.
2 beeps every 3 sec. = Defrost Back Up Timer. Defrost >20 minutes. Orange LED marked 20 MIN energizes.
Check for open thermistor, HGV not opening, TXV leaking by, low charge, or inefficient compressor.
3 beeps every 3 sec. = Freeze Back Up Timer. Freeze > 60 minutes. Yellow LED marked 60 MIN energizes.
Check for F/S stuck closed (up), WV leaking by, HGV leaking by, TXV not feeding properly, low charge, or inefficient compressor.
Machines with mechanical bin control ONLY
4 beeps every 3 sec. = Short Circuit between the K4 connection on the control board and the bin control relay. Check connections and replace wire harness if necessary.
5 beeps every 3 sec. = Open Circuit between the K4 connection
on the control board and the bin control relay. Check connections and replace wire harness if necessary.
To manually reset the above safeties, depress white alarm reset button with the power supply ON.
6 beeps every 3 sec. = Low Voltage. Voltage is 92 Vac or less.
7 beeps every 3 sec. = High Voltage. Control voltage > 147 Vac ±5%.
The red LED will de-energize if voltage protection operates.
The voltage safety automatically resets when voltage is corrected.
The Output Test switch “S3” provides a relay sequence test. With power OFF, place S3
ON and switch power to ICE. The correct lighting sequence should be none, 2, 3, 4, 1, & 4, normal sequence every 5 seconds. S3 should remain in the “OFF” position for normal operation.
16
The application switch located between relay X3 & X4 must be set to match the original board application. Place this switch in the ALP position if there is no white wire supplied to the K1 connector. If there is a white wire, place the switch in the C position. If this switch is placed in the wrong position, either the compressor contactor will remain energized with the control switch OFF, or the unit will not start.
The dip switches should be adjusted per the adjustment chart published in the Tech Specs book. Number 8 must remain in the OFF position.

Switch Nos. 1 and 2:
Used for adjustment of the Defrost Timer.
The Defrost Timer starts counting when the Thermistor reads a certain temperature at the Evaporator outlet.
Switch Nos. 3 and 4:
Used for adjustment of the Drain Timer.
When a freeze cycle is completed, the Pump Motor stops, and the icemaker resumes operation in 2 seconds. Then the Pump Motor drains the Water Tank for the time determined by the Drain Timer. The Drain Timer also determines the time to restrain completion of a defrost cycle, i.e. the minimum defrost time.
Switch Nos. 5 and 6:
Used for adjustment of the Drain Counter.
The Pump Motor drains the Water Tank at the frequency determined by the Drain
Counter.
Switch No. 7:
Used only on models with mechanical bin control. Dip Switch should be set “ON”.
(Models with bin thermostat, Switch No. 7 should be set in the “OFF” position.)
Switch No. 8:
Used only for checking the Controller Board. Usually set in OFF position.
