10.15.6 ALARM condition
An ALARM
is an irregular event that always causes the dryer to switch off to ensure the safety of operators and the
machine.
In the presence of an Alarm the status bar shows a description of the event and turns flashing red. In this condition it is
not possible to clear the Alarm as the cause is still present.
When an Alarm is no longer active but has not been cleared, the status bar shows a description of the event and is
permanently lit (red). In this condition the Alarm can be cleared as the cause has been removed.
With dryer operating
: the presence of one or more Alarms is flagged on the
display with the status bar changing from green to red. If several Alarms are
active simultaneously, the status area displays one Alarm at a time until the
displayed Alarm is reset.
When the dryer is off
: an Alarm is not displayed, except for Alarms A6 "Ice"
and A14 "Inverted feeding phases."
It is only when the operator wants to start the dryer with the
key that the
control unit prevents the dryer starting up and displays the Alarm status by
changing the colour of the status bar (red).
