Setup
All changes are made to displayed settings using touch screens. No
mechanical adjustments to the sterilizer are necessary.
Generally, the Setup options are used to change the way the
sterilizer operates. The control has an Access Code Security feature.
If the Access Code is enabled, all or some of these options can be
secured or “locked out” by the supervisor (see Access Code later in
this section for more information on Access Code). All Setup options
are accessed from the Setup Menu.
A summary of the setup options that can be adjusted are listed in
Table 7-2. Each value is detailed in this section.

MACHINE SETUP
Access Code Once the access code has been set, all cycles values and Change Values options can be
selected to lockout, making them unavailable for change by an operator without entering the
Access Code.
Lockout This setting is used to secure any of the Change Values options under the access code.
Once a function is locked out, the Access Code must be entered before the setting can be
accessed or changed.
Utilities Control This setting permits the operator to program the sterilizer to automatically shut off its steam
and water at the end of the work day, to conserve utilities. Shut down and power-up times
can be programmed for any time of the day on Weekdays or the Weekend.
NOTE: Sterilizers equipped with an integral steam generator automatically run a generator
flush-and-drain cycle one hour before sterilizer’s scheduled restart time.
Language
This option can be used to select one of three factory set languages as the default for displays
and printouts. Available languages are ENGLISH, SPANISH and FRENCH. A BILINGUAL
options allows for easy changes between English and Spanish, or English and French.
Machine Number This is used to assign a six-character, alphanumeric code to the sterilizer. This code appears
in the heading of all printouts.
Time Format This setting allows the control to display times using either AM/PM format or 24 hour format.
Print Format This setting allows the sterilizer to print a condensed version of the cycle printout to conserve
on paper usage.
Audible Signals This option allows adjustment of ALARM, END OF CYCLE and TOUCHPAD signals tones.
Tones can be independently adjusted to one of three volume levels. ALARM signal tone
cannot be turned off.
Units This is used to select the temperature and pressure units displayed and printed out by the
sterilizer. The sterilizer is capable of displaying temperature as either Fahrenheit or Celsius;
pressure can be displayed as psig/inHg, millibar or psia.
Date Format The sterilizer can be programmed to change the way the date is displayed and printed. The
normal setting is to display Month/Day/Year (M/D/Y); but this can be changed to
Year/Month/Day (Y/M/D), or Day/Month/Year (D/M/Y).
Duplicate Print Sterilizer can be set to automatically furnish a duplicate printout of each cycle at the end of
the cycle. First line will always read — DUPLICATE PRINT — and complete printout of cycle
data will be furnished.
