Operating Instructions
40
The microprocessor has a CYCLS screen, which
is used to select CYCLE-SENTRY (CYCLS
YES) or Continuous Run (CYCLS No) operation.
Refer to the appropriate Operator’s Manual or
Microprocessor Diagnosis Manual for more
information about CYCLE-SENTRY selection.
Your selection of the operating mode for the
proper protection of a particular commodity
should use the following guidelines:
Examples of Products Normally
Acceptable for CYCLE-SENTRY Operation
• Frozen foods (in adequately insulated trailers)
• Boxed or processed meats
• Poultry
• Fish
• Dairy products
• Candy
• Chemicals
• Film
• All non-edible products
Examples of Products Normally Requiring
Continuous Run Operation for Air Flow
• Fresh fruits and vegetables, especially
asparagus, bananas, broccoli, carrots, citrus,
green peas, lettuce, peaches, spinach,
strawberries, sweet corn, etc.
• Non-processed meat products (unless
pre-cooled to recommended temperature)
• Fresh flowers and foliage
These listings are not all inclusive. Consult your
grower or shipper if you have any questions about
the operating mode selection of your type of load.
Restarting Unit—Diesel Operation
This procedure is used when starting units that
have been shut off for short periods of time. A
unit that has been shut off for a long time should
be started and put through a full pretrip when first
started.
1. Place the Diesel/Electric switch (if so
equipped) in the Diesel position.
2. Place the Zone 1/Host On/Off switch in the
On position.
3. After a 10 second delay, the unit should
preheat and start automatically.
NOTE: When the CYCLE-SENTRY icon is
active, the unit may not start if: the
compartment temperatures are near their
respective setpoints, the engine is warm, and
the battery is fully charged.
4. Place the Zone 2 On/Off switch in the On
position to operate the Zone 2 evaporator.
5. Place the Zone 3 On/Off switch in the On
position to operate the Zone 3 evaporator.
Restarting Unit—Electric Operation
This procedure is used when starting units that
have been shut off for short periods of time. A
unit that has been shut off for a long time should
be started and put through a full pretrip when first
started.
1. Place the Diesel/Electric switch in the Electric
position.
2. Connect the unit to an appropriate electric
power supply.
3. Turn the high voltage power supply On.
4. Place the Zone 1/Host On/Off switch in the
On position. If the microprocessor determines
that the unit should cool or heat, the
appropriate icon(s) will appear and the electric
motor will start. It may not start if the return
air sensor temperature is within a few degrees
of setpoint.
5. Place the Zone 2 On/Off switch in the On
position to operate the Zone 2 evaporator.
6. Place the Zone 3 On/Off switch in the On
position to operate the Zone 3 evaporator.
CAUTION: Always turn the electric
power supply Off when handling,
connecting, or disconnecting high voltage
power cords.
CAUTION: Do not start the electric drive
motor unless the diesel engine is
completely stopped.
