General Programming
CYC (Total Cycle Time) refers to the total amount of
cooking time set for the product (Figure 4).
RATE (Shot Interval Time)
is the time set between
each shot of steam during a complete cycle (Figure 5).

To verify or change the generator setpoint tempera-
ture, press and hold the UP and DOWN arrow buttons
simultaneously for three seconds. Then, raise or lower
the temperature by depressing the UP or DOWN arrow
buttons. Release the buttons when the desired tem-
perature is reached.

To verify the actual generator temperature, press and
hold the UP arrow button. The unit will display the
actual generator temperature.
Before starting initial programming, there are three
items that should be verified.
* Check/change the setpoint temperature of the gen
-
erator (it is recommended that the generator be set
at 375°F (191°C).
* Change the display from Fahrenheit (F) to Celsius
(C) or vice versa.
* Verify the generator temperature after a 30 minute
pre-heat time.
Listed below are the steps to follow for the recommen-
dations listed above.
SHOT (Steam Shot Time)
is used to adjust the water
volume used during each solenoid operation (shot of
steam) (Figure 6).
The amount of steam produced by your unit depends
on the amount of water sprayed onto the steam genera-
tor surface. Flooding of the generator may occur if the
SHOT setting is too high or if the RATE setting is too
low.
To prevent this from occurring, the RATE (Shot Interval
Time) should be increased to allow more time for gen
-
erator heat recovery, and the SHOT (Steam Shot Time)
can be decreased to reduce the water volume.
Adjustments should be made to both values to deter
-
mine the optimum settings for your cooking needs.
Factory Settings
The VS-350 is factory programmed for the following val-
ues for each of the 4 menu channels:
CYC = [00:10] 10 seconds
(Range: 1 second to 99 minutes 59 seconds)
RATE = [00:05] 5 seconds (recommended)
(Range: 1 second to 5 minutes 59 seconds)
SHOT = [00:70] 0.70 seconds (recommended)
(Range: 0.10 second to 2.50 seconds)
These settings deliver approximately 3/4 oz. (25 millili
-
ters) of water every 5 seconds for a 10 second cooking
time. Changes may be made to any of these settings.
However, for optimum performance, settings should
remain as shown above.
To restore the factory settings:
1. Turn the unit off. Press and hold
the Program
and Single Shot buttons.
2. Turn the unit on while still holding these buttons.
3. Release the buttons as soon as the unit stops
beeping.
Programming the Unit
NOTE: CYC, RATE, and SHOT are sequential opera-
tions per channel for all programming (you must
perform all steps for CYC and RATE to change
SHOT).
NOTE: CYC, RATE, and SHOT are only displayed
momentarily during the programming sequence
when the PROGRAM button is pressed.
