Chapter 6: Operation
11.Set the Grain Temperature Setpoint as follows:
• 180°F Drying temperature = 100°F Grain temperature set point
• 170°F Drying temperature = 103°F Grain temperature set point
• 160°F Drying temperature = 105°F Grain temperature set point
• 150°F Drying temperature = 108°F Grain temperature set point
• * 140°F Drying temperature = 110°F Grain temperature set point
• * 130°F Drying temperature = 113°F Grain temperature set point
• * 120°F Drying temperature = 115°F Grain temperature set point
NOTE: * When drying at a temperature lower than 150°F the grain temperature set point on the
moisture control thermostat may require a lower setting at night.
12.Press the Dryer Power switch on the dryer control panel.
The fill system(s) should start immediately and should stop when the grain reaches the Drying
Chamber High Level Rotary switch.
13.Turn the Fan switch on the TopDry Terminal to AUTO.
14.Turn the Heater switch on the TopDry Terminal to AUTO.
The dryer will operate as you have configured it in the Setup Menu and dump the grain accordingly.
15.After the dump cycle, stop the dryer and test the gain moisture.
• If using Autobatch, test after the first dump is completed.
• If using Autoflow, test after the 10th dump has completed.
16.If the moisture of the grain is too high, increase the grain temperature set point 3°F for each addi-
tional point of moisture to be removed.
17.If the moisture of the grain is too low, decrease the grain temperature set point 3°F for each addi-
tional point of moisture to be added.
18.If you changed the grain temperature setpoint, make sure to adjust the Dry Timer accordingly.
Refer to TopDry Terminal Drying Capacities, page 24.
19.Re-start the dryer and repeat steps 15 thru 18 until your desired moisture content is obtained.
NOTE: Anytime a change is made to the Grain Temperature Setpoint in Autoflow Mode, the
dryer must complete four dump cycles before the moisture of the grain can be accurately
tested.
