Notes:
• The “beam down” time makes sure that the
aeration valve opens well by allowing the seal
bags to de-aerate if aeration valve and vacuum
valve have been installed in the machine.
• The pause time makes sure that the pump can
create sufficient vacuum to open de vacuum
valve if only a vacuum valve and no aeration
valve have been installed in the machine.
1.1.2 Testing
The objective of the tests is to make it easier to
detect faults.
Final pressure and leakage test
This test can only be carried out with a sensor-
controlled machine. The display shows “tPL”.
When the cover is closed the machine starts
creating a vacuum. No symbols are on. If a time-
out occurs, the machine stops vacuuming. The
value reached is the final pressure of the machine
and this will be displayed for some seconds.
Subsequently, the actual pressure in the room is
displayed. By pressing the stop key the room is
aerated. When the cover is open “tPL” appears in
the display again.

Outputs test Key test

The display shows “1.oF”. By repeatedly pressing
the options on/off key each output is controlled
successively. The order of the outputs test is as
follows:
Press the "up key (or the "down key"):
• No. 1: pump
• No. 2: vacuum valve
• No. 3: gas valve
• No. 4: seal valve
• No. 5: seal1-magnetic switch
• No. 6: seal2-magnetic switch
• No. 7: softair valve
• No. 8: aeration valve
The numbers 1 thru 8 indicate the order of the
output test and the vacuum process.
Temperature test
The display shows the temperature of the
electronics.
Display test
During the display test the symbols are lit up one
by one and all LEDs and display segments flash
simultaneously.
This test checks the proper functioning of all keys.
The display shows “t b”. Every time a key is
pressed, a number or code appears in the display
as follows:
• Stop key
• Change progr. key
• Options on/off
• Up key
• Down key:
Notes:
When the key is released, “t b” appears in the
display again. When testing the "up/down keys"
the code appears briefly (0.5 sec) in the display.
By pressing the next function key the control
proceeds to the next test. The display does not
show a code.
Duration test
In this test the machine can be made to
continuously carry out vacuum cycles. As long as
the cover remains closed, the machine aerates for
10 seconds and after that starts another vacuum
cycle. The display shows “tE. Programme
number”. The duration test is carried out with the
settings of the active programme. The text
“Programme number” represents the number
(1 - 9) of the active programme.

• Pressing the button shortly makes small changes.
• Pressing the button longer the value changes faster.

2.2.3 PROG-key

• By pressing the PROG button the changing is stored and the next function will be displayed.
• After the final function (Seal1-2) press the PROG button again and the control gets into the standby
function again.
