D.3. Programming Modes
All American Panel Corporation blast chillers are initially programmed at the factory. These settings may be
considered standard for AP40BC250-12, AP40BC250-2-12, BCCP-1, BCCP-2, and BCIP units. However, the customer
may change any of these settings as indicated by necessity.
There are two programming modes to be covered:
Initial Programming - settings like year, month, date, time, and several other parameters.
Parameter Programming - settings that control the chilling cycles.
To program the controller the customer can either use the control panel at the unit, or the PC application.
The front panel buttons are divided into 3 groups, as follows:
1. 3.
On/Off
Select
Start/Stop
Up
2.
Automatic Cycle

D.4. Initial Programming
The initial configuration of the system can be performed in Initial Programming mode. This includes setting the
current year, month, date and time, as well as several other parameters.
Note: During the programming steps, any delay longer than 20 seconds before pushing the next button will cause the
controller to revert to “OFF” state and the display will show: OFF. TO AVOID THIS, THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS
SHOULD BE CAREFULLY REVIEWED AND THE DESIRED SETTINGS SHOULD BE DETERMINED BEFORE
PROCEEDING.
If the control panel goes to OFF state, programming mode will have to be restarted.
Note: During programming, pressing and holding
or button for more than two seconds will increase the value
changing speed.
