10. momentum the air flow switch will not be in the off position directly after the output for the blower is stopped This means that if the stop button is pushed and the start button is pushed directly after that message 14 can be displayed because the air flow switch hasn t reached the off position yet Input 4 Input overload This input should be used to connect all available motor overload protectors The protectors should be connected in series so that the input is on when no overload protection is active The controller continuously checks this input and if the input is off message 2 is displayed Input 5 Reserved Not implemented yet This input is reserved for future purposes Input 6 Reserved Not implemented yet This input is reserved for future purposes Input 7 Rotation sensor This input is used to connect a drum rotation sensor If the presence of a rotation sensor is configured see chapter Configuration parameters parameter number 17 the controller checks this input when the drum is running This means that if the drum is running the rotation sensor input should go from the off to the on state on a regular basis The maximum time it may take for the rotation sensor to be detected is adjustable with machine parameter 26 see chapter Machine parameters If the drum speed is controlled by inverter and the analogue output of the controller the time out duration is Manual M720

13. select a language from the list The 2 line shows the name of the current language like for example English Now a language can be selected with the ARROW UP and ARROW DOWN buttons When the right language is selected this choice can be confirmed with the ENTER button Because the M720 controller has a full world wide character set it is possible that the controller is set to a language which can not be read and or understood This can also happen if the language is accidentally changed to another language If this happens it would be difficult to go through the available menus and find the Change language item again Therefore a work around is available When switching the controller off and on again the start up logo or an empty screen will be shown for around 4 seconds If during this time the SHIFT button and the ENTER button are held simultaneously the screen to change the language will be activated as well so another language can be selected 6 6 3 Restore factory settings Restoring factory settings should normally not be necessary because all parameters are stored in non volatile memory which does not need a battery to retain its data But in some cases it can be useful to be able to go completely back to factory settings If the item Restore factory settings is chosen from the System setup menu and the password level is sufficient the screen for restoring factory settings will be displayed If the

15. the input should change to the on state in the time defined in machine parameter 33 If the input is in the on state when starting up or does not go to the on state in time then no air flow is detected As this situation can be dangerous the machine is stopped Please note that if a dryer is stopped and then restarted quickly this message can appear Because of the momentum of the blower motor air will still be flowing and the switch will stay in the on state for a short time after the blower motor has been stopped If the machine is started again during this period this message will also be given Also please note that if the lint filter door or drawer is opened when a program is running the air flow will change which can also cause the switch to open In this case an additional air flow sensor error will be given 16 Temperature sensor 1 error The cable of temperature sensor 1 is broken or there is a short circuit The controller detects that the sensor is not properly connected 17 Temperature sensor 2 error The cable of temperature sensor 2 is broken or there is a short circuit The controller detects that the sensor is not properly connected This message will only be displayed in case the presence of a second temperature sensor is set in the machine configuration parameters see chapter 6 8 parameter 4 The machine is still able to run in case the 2 sensor is broken but it cannot run on automatic drying

If an input receives a 24V signal the status of the input will be ON and if no signal is received on the input the status of the input will be OFF The following example will explain how to test the door closed input The input for door closed is input 1 on the dryer controller To check the status of this input first select module number 0 with the ARROW UP and or ARROW DOWN button Module number 0 means viewing the inputs on the dryer controller itself After that select channel number 1 with the PLUS and or MINUS buttons Channel number 1 means input 1 If the module number is set to 0 and the channel number is set to 1 the input status of the door closed input is shown If the door is closed the status of the input should be ON If the door is opened the status of the input should change to OFF 6 5 2 View status of outputs The View status of outputs screen can be used to check if the controller board is activating an output Viewing the status of an output can be done while the machine is running Selecting a module number and channel number is done in the same way as in the View status of inputs screen see chapter 6 5 1 The main difference between viewing the status of the inputs and viewing the status of the outputs is the number of available outputs on the dryer controller itself The dryer controller has 8 relay outputs and 1 digital outputs This means that if module number 0 is selected
