WARNING
Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate
this machine according to the
manufacturer's instructions may result in
conditions which can produce bodily injury
and/or property damage.
W030
NOTE: The WARNING and IMPORTANT
instructions appearing in this manual are not meant
to cover all possible conditions and situations that
may occur. It must be understood that common
sense, caution, and carefulness are factors which
cannot be built into these washers. These factors
MUST BE supplied by the person(s) installing,
maintaining, or operating the washer.
Always contact the distributor, service agent, or the
manufacturer about any problems or conditions you do
not understand.
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 time, set
vend prices, retrieve audit information and run
diagnostic tests. Washers shipped from the factory
have a programmable 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 ten 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
Power Failure Recovery
If power fails during an active cycle, the cycle status is
saved in memory. If the European Community (EC)
Power Recovery is disabled, control will automatically
resume the cycle (washer lid must be closed). If EC
Power Recovery is enabled and power is restored in
less than two seconds, the washer will automatically
resume the cycle (washer lid must be closed). If the
length of the power failure is greater than two seconds,
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.
The following are a few terms and abbreviations to
learn. These are referred to throughout the manual:
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.
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 as
shipped from the factory. 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.
START Keypad
The START keypad is used to start the washer after the
full vend price has been satisfied and the washer lid is
closed.
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.
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, the full vend price has been satisfied,
and the washer lid is closed. 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
cycle and will remain lit until the cycle is complete.
SPIN LED
The SPIN LED is lit for all spin cycles.
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).
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
TLW2R
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 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 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
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.
When the START keypad is pressed, 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 lid is opened, a key 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.
Opening the Washer Lid
Opening the washer lid in a running cycle will
automatically stop the cycle, the Four-Digit Display
will show “LId”, and the timer will stop. Once the lid
is closed, the cycle will resume from the point it was
interrupted. If the washer lid is opened in the last three
minutes of the cycle, the timer will continue to count
down to the end of the cycle. When the timer control
reaches 0 minutes, the control will return to the Ready
Mode.
Signals
There are three 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 three 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.
