Control Systems
Energizing the PROCESSOR
Modes of the PROCESSOR
The PROCESSOR has 2 operating modes.
• In the Ready Mode, the PROCESSOR is energized and all systems are ready to process film.
• In the Standby Mode, the PROCESSOR is energized but the systems operate intermittently. The PROCESSOR
automatically changes from the Ready Mode to the Standby Mode after 5 minutes. The PROCESSOR leaves
the Standby Mode automatically when the operator inserts film, or manually when the “Run” BUTTON is pressed.
Operator Controls
The following are operator controls and functions:
• ON/OFF POWER SWITCH - Energizes and de-energizes the PROCESSOR.
• DRYER TEMPERATURE CONTROL KNOB - Adjusts the air temperature of the DRYER.
• “Run” BUTTON - Manually starts one cycle of the film developing process and releases the PROCESSOR from
the Standby mode.
• “Dev” BUTTON - Manually starts one cycle of the developer replenishment.
• “Fix” BUTTON - Manually starts one cycle of the fixer replenishment.
STATUS INDICATORS
There are 4 STATUS INDICATORS on the PROCESSOR:
• “Service” - Indicates a malfunction of the PROCESSOR.
• “High s” - Indicates the developer temperature is above the set point. It is also used to indicate some temperature
control malfunctions. See
Indications and Error Functions
.
• “Ready” - Illuminates when the PROCESSOR is ready to develop film and blinks when it is developing film.
• “Low t” - Indicates the developer temperature is below the set point. It is also used to indicate some temperature
control malfunctions. See
