ELECTRONIC CONTROL TERMINOLOGY & COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONS
Wolf Induction cooktops utilize an electronic control system. The electronic control system monitors, regulates and
controls a variety of functions. The control system also displays error codes to identify possible problems with the unit.
The table below defi nes some of the basic electronic control system terminology and describes some of the electronic
system components. An understanding of the following information is needed in order to comprehend the input
operations and functions of the electronic control system.
Term / Component Defi nition / Description
Control PCB Assembly .................. The printed circuit board that controls the functions and communication between
the glass and keypad assembly and generator boards.
Generator Board ........................... The circuit board attached to the induction plate which provides power to inductors
Induction Plate .............................. A metal plate that the inductors, generator boards and fi lter boards are attached
to.
Filter Board ................................... The circuit board which fi lters incoming power and passes it on to the generator.
Glass & Keypad Assembly ........... The assembly containing the display(s), keyboard, and glass top.
Microprocessor.............................. An electrical component on the control board which receives electrical signals
from other components, processes that information, then sends an electrical
signal to the relays on the board to open or close, and other components in the
unit to switch on or off.
Keyboard....................................... An assembly of glass and PCB which connects onto the glass top.
Error Codes................................... Number which appears on the 3 digit display if the unit experiences specifi c
problems related to electrical signals supplied by the electrical components.
LED............................................... Light Emitting Diode
EOC.............................................. End of Cycle
CZ................................................. Controled Zone - The useer interface that controls each hob.
