Preliminary Information About the Control Audit Information The UniLinc control on the tumbler is an advanced, graphical, programmable computer that lets the owner control most machine features by interacting with the control. The control collects and stores audit information, which can be accessed with a PDA, PC or network. Refer to the following list for some of the available audit information. Refer to UniLinc PC and PDA Application User Instructions.
Preliminary Information IR Communications Menu Medium (M) Temperature = 160 (°F) Low (L) Temperature = 140 (°F) Very Low (VL) Temperature = 120 (°F) Cool Down Temperature = 100 (°F) Cool Down Time = 2 (minutes) Rapid Advance = Disabled Multi-Segment Cycles = Disabled LCD Backlight ON/OFF = On Banner # 1 = Blank PHM1003R Banner # 2 = Blank Daylight Saving = Enabled Figure 2 The IR Communications Menu displays while the control is communicating with a PDA.
UniLinc Identification Operational Keypad The control includes seven keypads. These functions are available to the operator and are intended to control and manage operation of the tumbler.

When the cycle is completed, the audit counter, Total Rapid Advance Cycles is incremented rather than the Total Machine Cycles audit counter.
UniLinc Identification End of Cycle Mode Reversing Mode (reversing models only) The control enters End of Cycle Mode after the cool down segment is finished. The display will show a graphic prompting the user to open the loading door. If the door has not been opened or a keypad has not been pressed after two minutes, the machine will enter Extended Tumble Mode. This mode is exited when the or keypad is pressed. door is opened or a The control will then return to Idle Mode.
Machine Cycle Definition and Operation There are 41 machine cycles that can be selected and run. Machine cycles can be modified or made “unavailable” by manually editing them in Modify Cycle Menu or by using the PDA or network to download a modified machine cycle into the control. Machine cycles cannot be deleted, but can be made “unavailable” so that they are not visible from the Cycle Menu.
