Standby Key
Use the standby key to manually place the melter into, and take it out of, the
standby mode. Using the standby mode during periods of time when
the melter is inactive helps conserve energy and allows heated components
to quickly return to their setpoint temperatures when the melter is once again
needed.
When the melter is placed into the standby mode, the temperatures of
all components are reduced down from their setpoint temperature by a
pre-set standby delta. The melter will remain in the standby mode until the
standby key is pressed or the function of one of the operating parameters
takesthemelteroutofthestandbymode.
If the melter was set up to use the manual standby timer
(parameter 26), pressing the standby key will place the melter in the standby
mode for the period of time specified by the timer. After the manual standby
time has elapsed, the melter will once again begin heating all of the
components to their assigned setpoint temperature.
Using the standby key overrides the control of the melter (on or off) by
the seven-day clock or a remote input.
Refer to Section 3, Installation, Setting Up the Melter, and to Appendix B,
Operating Parameters, for information about setting the standby delta and
the standby timer.
