1.3 MODES OF NORMAL OPERATION
Following are details of the operational modes of the IntelliTec control.
NOTE:
The preset amounts, times, and temperatures listed below are references to actual settings on the IntelliTec control. Refer to Table 1-1 on page 7 for details on each setting.
A. INITIAL STATUS
When the Main Freezer Power and Freezing Cylinder switches are placed in the ON position, the machine will start in the “Sleep 1 Mode". The display will read "Sleep 1 Mode". The control will eventually move into the “Sleep 2” mode if the PUSH TO FREEZE button is not pressed. When the PUSH TO FREEZE button is pressed the control will move to the “Serve Mode”.
B. SERVE MODE
When the PUSH TO FREEZE button is pressed or a spigot handle is pulled, the “Serve Mode” begins. The drive motor starts, and after a 3 second delay, the compressor starts. The display reads “FREEZING” on the top line and a bar on the bottom line increases with product consistency. A toroid on the IntelliTec control senses increasing drive motor amperage as the product comes to consistency in the freezing cylinder. When the control senses the product is at 75% of consistency, the display will read "SERVE", the amber LED will go out, and the green LED will flash. At this time, product can be served from the machine. The drive motor and compressor will continue to run until the toroid reads a preset value (CutOut amps). When the toroid reads the CutOut amps on the drive motor, the compressor turns off and the green LED will remain lit. After a 3 second delay, the drive motor turns off. The product in the freezing cylinder is now at serving temperature and consistency.
After product is at consistency, the IntelliTec control continuously monitors refrigerant temperature through a thermistor mounted on the side of the freezing cylinder. When the temperature increases to a preset amount (Cut In T), a 3-second drive motor pre-stir analyzes product consistency. The pre-stir check is also performed each time the spigot handle is opened. This check prevents over­freezing of product, especially during frequent, small vol­ume draws. If the product requires a freezing cycle, the control will start the cycle.
During the “Serve Mode”, a stir cycle starts. This cycle is independent of the freezing cycle and is based on preset times (Stir On and Stir Off). The stir cycle prevents product separation. If a freezing cycle is initiated, the timer is reset.
In addition to the "Serve Mode" freezing cycle, there is a freezing cycle based on a preset time (DftOffTime). If this time is attained without a freezing cycle, the control will automatically start a freezing cycle.
The machine will remain in “Serve Mode” until the cycle count setting is attained. The cycle count is the number of active freezing cycles and is based on a preset value
Figure 1-3 Serve Mode
(Cycles). Once the cycle count has been reached without user interruption, the control will move into the "Standby Mode".
If the PUSH TO FREEZE button is pressed or a spigot handle is pulled, the cycle count is reset and the control will move to the beginning of the "Serve Mode". Refer to Figure 1-3 for a graphical representation of the "Serve Mode".
C. STANDBY MODE
If no product has been drawn from the spigot and the preset number of active freezing cycles is met, the control moves into the “Standby Mode”. In "Standby Mode", the freezing cycle is based on preset timers (On Time and Off Time), and prevents ice crystals from building up in the product. Because the product remains partially frozen, it can quickly return to servable consistency when the PUSH TO FREEZE button is pressed.
During “Standby Mode”, the stir cycle runs. This cycle is based on preset, timed intervals (Stir On and Stir Off) and prevents product separation.
The "Standby Mode" maintains product quality during slow times, while minimizing reactivation time. This mode lasts for a preset time (Stb Time). Once this time has been reached without user interruption, the control moves into
Figure 1-4 Standby Mode
4
the "Sleep 1 Mode". Refer to Figure 1-4 for a graphical representation of the "Standby Mode".
If a spigot is opened or the PUSH TO FREEZE button is pressed, the control will move to “Serve Mode”. Product in the front of the freezing cylinders may or may not be at consistency. The state of the product is dependant on a number of variables but will come to consistency quickly.
D. SLEEP 1 MODE
After the “Standby Mode” time has expired without user interruption, the control will move into the “Sleep 1 Mode”. During the "Sleep 1 Mode", the stir cycle is handled by preset timers (Sl1DrvOn and Sl1DrOff), and allows product to melt to a liquid state by using agitation cycles without any flow of refrigerant. Although the product temperature never increases above 40°F, the product thaws rapidly which minimizes product breakdown. The control will stay in the “Sleep 1 Mode” until sensing a preset temperature (Sl2CutIn). When this temperature has been reached without user interruption, the control will move to the "Sleep 2 Mode". Refer to Figure 1-5 for a graphical representation of the "Sleep 1 Mode".
Figure 1-5 Sleep 1 Mode
If a spigot is opened or the PUSH TO FREEZE button is pressed, the control will move to “Serve Mode”. If the spigot is opened in "Sleep 1 Mode", the product will not be at consistency. The operator must wait until the first "Serve Mode" freezing cycle has completed to serve product.
E. SLEEP 2 MODE
The “Sleep 2 Mode” maintains the freezing cylinder tem­perature between two preset values (Sl2CutIn and Sl2CtOut). During the “Sleep 2 Mode”, the stir cycle runs. This cycle is based on preset, timed intervals (Stir On and Stir Off) and prevents product separation. The "Sleep 2 Mode" is often referred to by customers as the “night mode” and the machine will stay in this mode until a spigot is opened or the PUSH TO FREEZE button is pressed. When this occurs, the control will move to “Serve Mode”. If the spigot is opened at this time, the product will be liquid. The operator must wait until the first "Serve Mode" freezing cycle has completed to serve product. Refer to Figure 1-6 for a graphical representation of the "Sleep 2 Mode".
Figure 1-6 Sleep 2 Mode
F. INTELLITEC RESTART (VERSION 3.5 OR HIGHER)
If a hard error occurs (refer the hard error list below), the IntelliTec control will wait 5 minutes then attempt to clear the error by restarting itself. The control will count each restart attempt. The restart count will reset if the PUSH TO FREEZE button is pressed, the spigot is pulled, or the Freezing Cylinder OFF/ON switch is placed in the OFF position.
The following are considered hard errors: ERROR CODE MALFUNCTION
2 High Torque 3 Run Time 4 Clean 7 Drive Motor 9 High Pressure Cutout
When a restart occurs, the second line of the display will read "Restart" and the backlight will blink. This will occur regardless of the system mode.
G. SLEEP 3 MODE (VERSION 3.5 OR HIGHER)
If a high torque, run time, or drive motor error condition occurs on the third restart attempt, the control will move to the "Sleep 3 Mode".
In "Sleep 3 Mode" freezing cylinder refrigeration will run for 4 seconds every 10 minutes. This ensures the product temperature never increases above 40°F. The stir cycle and the auger do not run during "Sleep 3 Mode".
The control will exit "Sleep 3 Mode" if the PUSH TO FREEZE button is pressed, the spigot is pulled, or the Freezing Cylinder OFF/ON switch is placed in the OFF position.
H. CLEAN MODE
When the CLEAN button is pressed on the left side, all hopper refrigeration stops. When the CLEAN button is pressed on the right side, only the right barrel freezing cycle stops. In either case, the drive motor of that barrel starts and will run for 20 minutes and a 5 minute countdown timer is displayed. After the time has elapsed, an optional audible alarm will sound if this accessory has been installed. The
5
audible alarm is a reminder for the operator to end the "Clean Mode" when cleaning is completed.
If the machine is kept in "Clean Mode" for more than 20 minutes, the auger drive motor stops, the hopper refrigera­tion starts, and an error code (E4) is displayed on the display panel. The error code prevents damage to the machine that could occur during an extended clean mode (Refer to Section 8 - Troubleshooting for details). To clear this error, place the Freezing Cylinder Off-On switch in the Off position and back in the On position. If the machine is still being cleaned, pushing the CLEAN button will reset the timer and restart the "Clean Mode".
1.4 MIX LEVEL INDICATORS
The hoppers are equipped with a sensor that monitors mix level. When the mix level drops below the sensor probe, the lower line of the display will read "Low Mix" and the display will flash. To clear the "Low Mix" error, add mix to the hopper.
1.5 HOPPER REFRIGERATION
The IntelliTec control is programmed to handle refrigeration of the hopper independently from the freezing cylinder. The left control maintains hopper temperature between two preset values (HprCutIn and HprCtOut).
NOTE
The Refriger setting should be 2 Hopper for the Left control and None for the right control.
The hopper refrigeration cycle starts when the temperature of either hopper reaches the HprCutIn value and stops when both hoppers reach the HprCutOut value.
In addition to this refrigeration cycle, hopper refrigeration may start when the freezing cycle starts. This reduces compressor cycles which preserves compressor life. Hop­per refrigeration will start if the hopper temperature is above a preset value (HprOffst + HprCtOut). This value is always between HprCutIn and HprCtOut. Refrigeration of the hop­per will continue until the HprCtOut is reached or until the freezing cycle is completed in the freezing cylinder.
The refrigeration cycle will run for a maximum of 4 minutes. After 4 minutes, the refrigeration cycle will stop for a minimum of 3 minutes. At the expiration of 3 minutes, the control will check product temperature. If product tempera­ture is at or above HprCutIn, another refrigeration cycle will start.
NOTE
If the temperature in the cabinet stays above 50°F for more than two hours, the machine will go into Sleep Mode and a clean message will be shown on the display .
1.6 OPERATION DURING SENSOR FAILURE
The IntelliTec control is designed to allow the machine to continue to function if a temperature sensor failure occurs. If a sensor fails, the display will show the error and the
control will run the machine on timers for the freezing cycle or hopper refrigeration. This allows the operator to continue to serve product from the machine until proper servicing can be completed.
A. SERVE AND STANDBY MODE
In the event of a temperature sensor failure on a freezing cylinder, the IntelliTec control will function in two modes, "Serve Mode" and "Standby Mode". When the product is at consistency in "Serve Mode", the IntelliTec control uses a timer instead of the sensor and will not start another freezing cycle until a preset value (DftOffTme) is met.
The control will monitor product after it is at consistency, activating the stir cycle and counting the number of cycles. When the cycle count is reached, the control will move to "Standby Mode".
Figure 1-7 Serve Mode (Sensor Failure)
The "Standby Mode" is the same as in normal operation with the exception of when the preset time (Stb Time) is met, the control moves back into the "Serve Mode". Refer to Figure 1-7 for details.
In the event a hopper temperature sensor fails, the control will use the temperature of the other hopper to control the refrigeration cycle.
If both temperature sensors fail, the refrigeration cycle is managed by preset times (Hpr On and Hpr Off). This refrigeration cycle is independent of the freezing cycle.
1.7 MOTOR PROFILE CUTOUT COMPENSATION
The IntelliTec control is programmed to automatically function at a range of supply voltages. This feature provides the advantage of having product maintained at a specific temperature and consistency irrespective of the supply voltage. A motor profile curve is programmed on the IntelliTec control and provides a relationship between the supply voltage and drive motor cutout amperage. Depend­ing on the supply voltage, the control varies cutout amper­age according to the motor profile. This feature is automatic and does not need any configuring.

The Main Freezer Power switch is a two position rocker switch that supplies power to the IntelliTec control, freez­ing cylinder circuits and hopper refrigeration system. When the switch is placed in the ON position, the hopper refrig­eration system will run until the preset temperature is reached; then it will cycle ON and OFF to maintain that temperature.
B. FREEZING CYLINDER OFF/ON SWITCH
The Freezing Cylinder OFF/ON switch is a two position toggle switch used to supply power to the freezing cylinder control circuit. When the switch is in the OFF position, the freezing cylinder’s refrigeration system and auger will not operate. When the switch is in the ON position, the machine will be operational.
C. SPIGOT SWITCH
The spigot switch is mounted to the spigot cam assembly behind the header panel. When the spigot is opened to dispense product, the spigot switch opens and the "Serve Mode" begins.
D. DISPENSE RATE ADJUSTOR
The dispense rate adjustor is located under the header panel, to the immediate right of the spigot handles. Turn­ing the knob counterclockwise will decrease the dispense rate.
E. PUSH TO FREEZE BUTTON
The PUSH TO FREEZE button is a membrane or snap switch used to initiate "Serve Mode".
NOTE
After the PUSH TO FREEZE button is pressed, the drive motor starts. Af ter a 3-second delay , the com­pressor will start.
F. LEDS
The membrane switch (touchpad) features two lights: a green LED and an amber LED. The green LED is lit during "Serve Mode". During freeze down, it is not lit. When product consistency approaches 75% in the freezing cylinder, the green LED flashes. The amber LED is on during all other modes. Both LEDs alternatively flash if an error occurs or if the freezing cylinder is off.
G. CLEAN BUTTON
The CLEAN button is a membrane, or snap switch. When the button is pressed, the freezing cycle stops and the drive motor will start. A CLEAN message will display on the LCD screen along with a 5-minute countdown timer. To exit the CLEAN mode, turn the Freezing Cylinder OFF/ON switch to the OFF position or press the CLEAN button again. If the machine is left in CLEAN for more than 20 minutes, an error code (E4) will be displayed on the display panel. Place the Freezing Cylinder OFF/ON switch in the OFF position and back in the ON position to clear this error.

3.3 IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING CLEANING
AND SANITIZING
Soft serve machines require special consideration when it comes to food safety and proper cleaning and sanitizing.
The following information specifically covers issues for cleaning and sanitizing frozen dessert machines. This information is meant to supplement a comprehensive food safety program.
SOIL MATERIALS ASSOCIATED WITH FROZEN
DESSERT MACHINES
MILKFAT/BUTTERFAT – As components of ice-cream/ frozen custard mix, these soils will accumulate on the interior surfaces of the machine and its parts. Fats are difficult to remove and help attribute to milkstone buildup.
MILKSTONE – Is a white/gray film that forms on equip­ment and utensils that are exposed to dairy products. These films will accumulate slowly on surfaces because of ineffective cleaning, use of hard water, or both. Milkstone is usually a porous deposit, which will harbor microbial contaminants and eventually defy sanitizing efforts.
Once milkstone has formed, it is very difficult to remove. Without using the correct product and procedure, it is nearly impossible to remove a thick layer of milkstone.
(NOTE: general-purpose cleaners DO NOT remove milkstone.) This can lead to high bacteria counts and a food safety dilemma.
IT IS BEST TO CONTROL MILKSTONE ON A DAILY BASIS BEFORE IT CAN BECOME A SIGNIFICANT FOOD SAFETY PROBLEM.
In addition to food safety, milkstone can cause premature wear to machine parts, which can add to costs for replace­ment parts or possibly more expensive repairs if worn machine parts are not replaced once they have become excessively worn.
IMPORTANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CLEANING
AND SANITIZING
CLEANING vs. SANITIZING It is important to distinguish between cleaning and sanitiz-
ing. Although these terms may sound synonymous, they are not. BOTH are required for adequate food safety and proper machine maintenance.
CLEANING
· Is the removal of soil materials from a surface.
· Is a prerequisite for effective sanitizing.
NOTE
An UNCLEAN surface will harbor bacteria that can defy sanitizing efforts.
Bacteria can develop and resist sanitizing efforts within a layer of soil material (milkstone). Thorough cleaning pro­cedures that involve milkstone removal are critical for operators of frozen dessert machines.
SANITIZING
· Kills bacteria.
· Can be effective on clean surfaces only.
NOTE
Using a SANITIZER on an unclean surface will not guarantee a clean and safe frozen dessert machine.
PROPER DAILY MAINTENANCE:
The Only Way to Assure Food Safety and Product Quality Proper daily maintenance can involve a wide variety of
products and procedures. Overall, the products and pro­cedures fall into three separate categories. (Please note that this is a brief overview intended for informational purposes only.)
1. CLEANING – This involves draining mix from the freezing cylinder and rinsing the machine with water. Next, a cleaner is run through the machine. Then, the machine is disassembled and removable parts are taken to the sink for cleaning.
2. MILKSTONE REMOVAL – Since most cleaners do not have the ability to remove milkstone, the use of a delimer becomes necessary. Although this procedure may not be needed on a daily basis, it will usually follow the cleaning procedure. It requires letting a delimer solution soak in the machine for an extended period. Individual parts are also soaked in a deliming solution for an extended period of time (more about delimers in Additional Information).
3. SANITIZING – After the machine has been cleaned and contains no milkstone, the machine is reassembled. Then a FDA-approved sanitizing solution is run through the machine to kill bacteria. The machine is then ready for food preparation.
As a recommended cleaner and sanitizer for your frozen dessert machine, STERA-SHEEN has proven to be one of the best daily maintenance products for:
· CLEANING – Thorough removal of all solids including butterfat and milk fat.
· MILKSTONE REMOVAL – Complete removal of milkstone.
· SANITIZING – FDA-approved no rinse sanitizer for food contact surfaces.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
THE USE OF DELIMERS A delimer is a strong acid that has the ability to dissolve
milkstone. This type of chemical may become necessary once high levels of milkstone have developed. While these products are very effective for removing HIGH levels of milkstone, they are not ideal for two reasons:
1. PRODUCT SAFETY – Strong acids are dangerous chemicals. Carefully follow safety instructions provided with delimer products.
