4 OPERATIONAL TEST PROCEDURES Operational Test 1. Plug fryer into its electrical power source. 2. The controller will show COOL in the display. 3. Turn the fryer power switch from off to on. 4. Press EXIT COOL key once. 5. Press any product key twice. 6. The cook cycle will count down in the display. 7. Press the product key to cancel the cook cycle. NOTE: A cook cycle can be canceled by pressing the active product key for 3 seconds. Pressing the product key for less than 3 seconds will not cancel the cook cycle. This allows the user to wipe the overlay clean without risk of accidental canceling of the cook cycle. If the cook cycle is canceled during the first 25% of the cook time, the cook cycle simply gets canceled and the display shows COOL. Canceling the cook cycle during the last 75% of the cook time will automatically place the controller into the filter mode or subtract one from its cycle count toward its filter lockout. NOTE: Gas Fail (for 811AXMR-K8G on the Henny Penny Gas Model 682 only) If GAS FAIL shows in the display, unplug the fryer. Plug the fryer back in; it should now heat up. If GAS FAIL still appears in the display, gas is not getting to the igniter or the gas igniter is defective. Unplug the fryer and contact a service representative. FAST / Rev. J / 04OCT02 PAGE - 4 -

21 USING THE HEAD CYCLE COUNTER *Not available on all models. Viewing/Resetting Number of Cook Cycles This feature will count the number of heads of product cooked and the number of heads cooked on the fryer. These counters will only be incremented after 25% of the cook cycle has elapsed. This will ensure that the counters represent an accurate representation of the number of heads cooked. It will protect against continually pressing a product key and against accidental cook starts. In particular, the following data is available: 1. The total number of heads cooked for the day; 2. The total number of heads cooked since the shortening was last changed; 3. The total number of cycles run (in hundreds) for the life of the controller/fryer. NOTE: The value of heads cooked for each product key may vary. Each value is preprogrammed for KFC specifications. In the event of a menu change, see the programming section of this manual to change these values. Accessing the Product Counter from Operating Mode Viewing Number of Heads Cooked for the Day XXXd xxx is the number of heads cooked for the day. This counter should be cleared once a day by the user.

23 Understanding and Utilizing the SMS Software in the EM-99 Controller Background In an effort to extend the shortening life utilized in frying of food products, as well as to improve the food quality of fried items, FAST has developed software to assist operators in a polishing routine for their shortening. Specifically, the following relates to the software designed and implemented for use at KFC in conjunction with Magnesol Filter Aid. The new EM-99 FASTRON Controller comes with the SMS software pre-installed but not active. The EM-99, therefore, will operate identically to the previous generation EM-90 controller with no change whatsoever until such time as the SMS software is activated. Users will notice that the product keys now also have a number in the lower right hand corner, as well as numbers on two of the function keys, designated numbers 0 through 9. Also, users will notice two blue triangles and two red circles for polish now and polish later functions, which are not active until such time as the SMS software has been turned on. The SMS software when turned on has the following functionality: 1. Real Time Clock The Real Time Clock is used to track the actual time of day in the location of operation. It is programmed for Eastern Standard Time USA at our factory and can be adjusted in the field through access codes provided in the programming manual. 2. Polish Events There are two distinct polishing events. Each polishing event is programmable for a time at which the polish commands are initiated. When initiated, the Real Time Clock tracks the actual time of day and at the programmed event time will lock the fryer into a polish routine. Prompts on the controller prompt the operator through the polish sequence for a predetermined amount of time. At the end of the polish sequence, the operator is prompted to refill the fry vat similarly to a filter lockout scenario. See user instructions for further details on the operation of the polish software with the step-by-step instructions taking you through a polish sequence. Please see programming instructions if provided to you for information regarding how to program the various aspects of the SMS polish lockout software. FAST / Rev. J / 04OCT02 PAGE

24 Definition of Terms Polish: The circulation of the shortening through the filter for a period of time, as opposed to filtering which passes the shortening through the filter only once. Polish Event: There are 2 events. An event is a polish sequence. Daylight Savings Time: Some countries have a one hour change to their clocks in the Spring and Fall to allow for more daylight hours. Spring / Fall programming as described in this manual allows the operator to quickly and easily change the time by one hour without accessing the other polish programmable parameters. Stagger Times: (This is for the 2 nd event only) Some operators prefer all the fryers to enter polish at the same time. In this case, all fryers start beeping at the same time and the need to polish is obvious. The delay command can then be used to delay those fryers that are needed for cooking. Other operators prefer a staggering of the Polish activation time (less noise in the kitchen, and can polish in a sequence). Staggered time programming as described in this manual allows the operator to quickly and easily customize their preference without accessing the other polish programmable parameters. Staggers are available in 15-minute increments from the set polish time up 45 minutes. Polish Now: The polish now command is active at all times once the event times are activated. If a Polish Now is entered and completed within 3 hours of a scheduled event polish time, the event polish time will be canceled. This allows an operator to polish a fryer and get credit for the polish before the actual polish command sounds. This is useful in a store with many fryers where the operator wants to "get ahead" of the polish work if they have time available. Polish Later: The polish later command is active at all times UNLESS the delay time is programmed to ZERO. The polish later command is used if a fryer has entered the polish command, yet it is needed to produce product at that time. The delay time programmed will start counting, and at the end of the delay time the operator will be forced to polish the shortening. The delay can only be activated once. Turn On SMS Default Event Times: This code will activate the SMS function and set the default times of the two polish events. Note there are 2 code options, one for morning and afternoon, and the other for afternoon and evening. The codes can only be used three times. After that, to change, you will need to enter complete programming instructions to make any modifications. Turn Off SMS Default Event Times: You must enter the complete programming area and set the event times 1 and 2 to 00:00. FAST / Rev. J / 04OCT02 PAGE
