2.1 INTRODUCTION The KFC Programmable Controller has two fundamental modes of operation: cook and program. In the cook mode the melt, stand-by, heat, and timer functions are active. In program, these modes are set by the operator. Melt Indicator - The display will read “LO” when the control is in the automatic melt mode. If the temperature of the shortening is below 185º the control will enter the melt mode. When the temperature of the shortening reaches 185º hte control will go into the stand-by mode or to the first setpoint of the current cycle. Stand-by Mode - The display will read “COOL” when the control is in the stand-by mode. After filtering or programming, the shortening temperature is reset to 250º which extends shortening life and is also an energy savings. The “EXIT COOL” switch must be depressed to exit the stand-by mode.
2.2 SWITCHES AND INDICATORS
Although the display will read “COOL” in the stand-by mode, the shortening is hot and could cause burns. Cycle Selection - Cycle selection is accomplished by depressing the switch nex to the desired cook cycle. The LED light next to the switch will start flashing and the timing cycle will begin. When the cycle is completed the buzzer will sound and the display will read “DONE.” Time/Temperature Display - This is a four digit LED type display which shows the remaining cook time during cook cycles and also the shortening temperature on demand from operator. Heat Indicator - The heat light will illuminate whenever the control calls for heat. When shortening temperature has been reached the heat light will extinguish. HI Temperature Indicator - The display will read “HI” if the shortening temperature is 40º above the setpoint.

DROP Indicator -The display will read “DROP” when the shortening has reached the setpoint temperature. (+ 4° to -2°) Temperature Switch -This switch allows the operator to read the temperature of the
