KFC-1 SMS COMPUTER
CHAPTER 1: IMPORTANT INFORMATION
1.1 General
The KFC-1 SMS Cooking Computer is designed to operate with both full- and split-pot fryers. For
a full-pot fryer, turn the computer on by pressing either
switch. For split-pot fryers, press the
left
switch to operate the left pot and the right
switch to operate the right pot.
The KFC-1 SMS Cooking Computer is designed to control either single or
multiple cooking cycles. The computer has 10 product buttons, which can be
individually programmed with up to 10 cooking intervals, three pre-alarms, and
straight or flex time for each product. The KFC-1 SMS can track the number of
heads cooked by the fryer and calculate recovery time. Also, the KFC-1 SMS
can be programmed to calculate recovery time and the number of cook cycles
since the last filtering. It is used on Frymaster KJ3FC, KSCF18G, and
KSCFH18E open fryers and can be programmed for heat curves for any product.
It is designed to operate in both full-pot and split-pot fryers. The KFC-1 SMS also has shortening
management programming and an internal real time clock.
If power outages of less than 5 seconds occur, KFC-1 SMS computers will automatically return to
current operational status once power is restored. If the computer fails to return to the current
operation when power is restored, reset the computer by unplugging the fryer from the power
source. The computer should reset when the fryer is plugged back in, and this, many times,
eliminates costly, unneeded service calls.
