MELTER OPERATION

4-9

MA-5168-ENG  

ADHESIVE MELTER CANTHO

1.   Press the button with the clock symbol.

 

A ‘0’ will appear on the display, indicating the program for current day and 

hour information.

2.   Press the standby function button.

 

A ‘1’ will appear, indicating the first day in the standby function 

programming.

 

[Since the current time and date are values common to both programs, the value ‘0’ 
does not appear in this menu].

3.   Use the up-down arrow under the display to select the desired value for 

the day of the week, Monday (1) to Sunday (7).

4.   Press the button with the clock symbol once again.

 

Two times will appear, one in each display. The left display shows the start 

time, while the right display shows the finish time.

5.  The blinking dot next to the start time indicates that this is the time that 

may be modified. 

 

Use the up-down arrow under the display to select the desired value.

6.  Press the button with the clock symbol once again.

 

The dot changes to the finish time.

7.   Use the up-down arrow under the display to select the desired value.

8.   Press the button with the clock symbol once again.

 

The selected program appears once again. You may use the up-down 

arrow under the display to select other programs.

9.   Pressing either the up or the down arrow  (left section) or element 

selection will exit this program and return to the visualization of the grille 

temperature

.

The green LED next to the ‘standby’ button will remain blinking as long as there is 

an equipment standby function activation time programmed for the current day.

Disabling the equipment standby function programming

It is possible to disable the equipment standby function programming without 

canceling the daily programming.  This way the programmed data is saved, but 

the programming will have no effect on the equipment. 

1.   Press the button with the clock symbol.

 

A ‘0’ will appear on the display, indicating the program for current day and 

hour information.

2.   Press the standby function button.

 

A ‘1’ will appear, indicating the first day in the standby function 

programming.
