3.5 Computer Operation (cont.)
The FGP55 CM-III.5 computer has 10 programmable product buttons, a Simmer Mode switch, and a
Boil Mode switch. The computer also has two Power switches. Either switch may be pressed to
turn the unit ON or OFF.
The product buttons are multi-functional. In the programming mode, each button can be
programmed for a distinct rethermalizing time for a particular product. In the rethermalizing mode,
pressing a button initiates a timed countdown of the specific product associated with the button.
When the
switch is pressed, the programmed setpoint is overridden and the vessel temperature is
raised to and maintained at 212F (100C). When the unit is in boil mode,
appears in both
LED displays. The unit will remain in the boil mode until the Simmer Mode switch is pressed or the
unit is turned off.
The Simmer Mode is activated by pressing the (R) switch. In Simmer Mode, the vessel
temperature is maintained at the programmed setpoint. When the switch is pressed, if the vessel
temperature is above the setpoint, - is displayed in both LED widows. If the vessel
temperature is below the setpoint, - is displayed. If the temperature is within 11F (6C) of the
setpoint, (four dashes) is displayed.
3.6 Programming the FGP55 CM-III.5 Computer
CAUTION
It is recommended that the simmer setpoint and the heat/stir times for all 10
products be programmed before the unit is first used in a rethermalizing cycle.
When the unit is tested at the factory, the simmer setpoint and product rethermalizing times are
programmed. These test settings are not default settings. You must program the unit for your own
particular products. Program the setpoint and all product rethermalizing times as follows:
1. Turn the computer on by pressing the
switch.
2. Enter the programming mode by pressing the
switch.
appears in the left display. If
you enter the programming mode by mistake, press the switch again to exit the programming
mode
NOTE 1: If you try to enter the programming mode while the computer is rethermalizing, the
display will flash .
