5.5 Operating End and
Non-Operating End
Control Panels
A sterilizer equipped with two doors will also be equipped with two
control panels. The control panel at the loading door of the sterilizer
is referred to as the “operating end control” (OE control); the control
panel located at the unloading door is referred to as the “non-
operating end control” (NOE control).
A single-door sterilizer is equipped with an “operating end control”
only.
NOTE: Except for the presence of the printer (which is only present at
the operating end of the unit), control panels at both ends of the unit
are similar and each can be used to start or abort the sterilizer.
The operating end control panel (see Figure 5-6 ) is used to:
• Select and start cycles.
• Abort cycles.
• Set cycles and cycle values.
• Obtain status printouts (see “Printer” paragraph later in this
section).
• Operating end control includes a printer for cycle
documentation.
• Non-operating end control is without a printer.
Cycle status and control messages are shown on a 30 line x 40
column graphics display. Cycles can be started or aborted using the
touch screen pads. Cycles and cycle values can be set using the
Change Values procedure (accessible from the sterilizer MENU
screen). If changing cycle values becomes necessary, refer to
