B. Sequence of Operation

The steps in the sequence are as outlined below. When power is supplied, the red

"POWER OK" LED on the control board comes on. A 5-second delay occurs at startup.

Note that the order of the LEDs from the outer edge of the board is 1, 4, 3, 2.

1. One Minute Fill Cycle

LED 4 is on. WV opens and the ﬁll period begins. After 1 minute, the board checks for

a closed F/S. If F/S is closed, the harvest cycle begins. If not, WV will remain energized

through additional 1 minute cycles until water enters the sump and F/S closes. This

serves as a low water safety to protect the water pump.

2. Initial Harvest Cycle

LEDs 1, 4, and 2 are on. WV remains open, Comp, FMR, HGV energize. The control

board monitors the warming of the evaporator via the thermistor located on the suction

line. When the thermistor reaches 48°F (9°C), the control board reads a 3.9 kΩ signal

from the thermistor and turns harvest termination over to the adjustable harvest timer

which is factory set for normal conditions. The timer has settings of 60, 90, 120, and

180 seconds (S4 dip switch 1 & 2). For details, see "II.C.3.b) Harvest Timer." When the

harvest timer completes its countdown, the harvest cycle is complete and the freeze

cycle starts. The minimum total time allowed by the control board for a complete harvest

cycle is 2 minutes. WV is energized during harvest for a maximum of 6 minutes or the

length of harvest, whichever is shorter. At the end of harvest, the control board checks

the position of F/S and proceeds to the freeze cycle if it is closed or calls for a 1-minute

ﬁll if it is open.

3. Freeze Cycle

LED 1 is on. Comp and FMR continue to run, PM and FMS energize, LLV opens, HGV

and WV close, and the freeze cycle starts. For the ﬁrst 5 minutes the control board

will not accept a signal from F/S. This 5 minute minimum freeze acts as a short cycle

protection. At the end of 5 minutes, F/S assumes control. As ice builds on the evaporator

the water level in the sump lowers. The freeze continues until F/S opens and terminates

ice production.

4. Pump-Out Cycle

LEDs 1, 3, and 2 are on. Comp and FMR continue to run, HGV opens, LLV closes, and

FMS de-energizes. PM stops for 2 seconds and reverses, taking water from the bottom

of the sump and forcing pressure against the check valve seat allowing water to go

through the check valve and down the drain. At the same time, water ﬂows through the

small tube to power ﬂush the F/S. When the pump-out timer (S4 dip switch 3 & 4) stops

counting, the pump out is complete. The pump-out frequency control (S4 dip switch

5 & 6) is factory-adjusted to drain the water tank every cycle, and no adjustment should

be made.

5. Normal Harvest Cycle

LEDs 1, 4, and 2 are on. Comp, FMR, and HGV remain energized. PM stops and WV

energizes. The control board monitors the warming of the evaporator via the thermistor

located on the suction line. When the thermistor reaches 48°F (9°C), the control board

reads a 3.9 kΩ signal from the thermistor and turns harvest termination over to the

pump-out timer's harvest timer which is factory set for normal conditions. For details,

see "II.C.3.c) Pump-Out Timer." When the pump-out timer's harvest timer completes

its countdown, the harvest cycle is complete and the freeze cycle starts. The minimum

total time allowed by the control board for a complete harvest cycle is 2 minutes. WV is

energized during harvest for a maximum of 6 minutes or the length of harvest, whichever

is shorter. At the end of harvest, the control board checks the position of F/S and

proceeds to the freeze cycle if it is closed or calls for a 1-minute ﬁll if it is open.

Components Energized when the Control Switch is in the "WASH" Position

The "WASH" position on the control switch is used when cleaning and sanitizing the unit. When in the

"WASH" position, power is supplied to the pump motor. With the cleaning valve closed, the cleaner and

sanitizer ﬂow over the outside of the evaporator plate assembly. With the cleaning valve open, the cleaner

and sanitizer ﬂow over both the outside and the inside of the evaporator plate assembly.

Note: Close the cleaning valve after cleaning and sanitizing are complete, otherwise the unit will not re-start

when the control switch is placed in the "ICE" position.

C. Control Board

• A HOSHIZAKI exclusive solid-state control is employed in KM-515MAH, KM-515MWH,

and KM-515MRH Modular Crescent Cubers.

• All models are pretested and factory-adjusted.

CAUTION

1. Fragile, handle very carefully.

2. The control board contains integrated circuits, which are susceptible to failure

due to static discharge. It is especially important to touch the metal part of

the unit before handling or replacing the board.

3. Do not touch the electronic devices on the board or the back of the board to

prevent damage to the board.

4. Do not change wiring and connections. Do not misconnect K3, K4, and K5,

because the same connector is used for the thermistor and ﬂoat switch. K4 is

not connected.

5. Always replace the whole board assembly if it goes bad.

6. Do not short out power supply to test for voltage.

2. Features

a) Maximum Water Supply Period – Six minutes

The inlet water valve will be open during harvest for six minutes or the length of harvest

whichever is shorter.

b) Harvest Backup Timer and Freeze Timer

The harvest backup timer shuts down the icemaker if, for two cycles in a row, the harvest

cycle takes more than 20 minutes to complete. The control board will signal this problem

using 2 beeps every 3 seconds.

The freeze timer shuts down the icemaker if, for two cycles in a row, the freeze cycle

takes longer than the time speciﬁed to complete. The control board will signal this

problem using 3 beeps every 3 seconds. The time is factory set using S4 dip switch 9 &

10.

The "ALARM RESET" button on the control board must be pressed with power on to

reset either of these safeties.

c) High Temperature Safety

The temperature of the suction line in the refrigeration circuit is limited by the high

temperature safety. This protects the unit from excessively high temperatures. If the

evaporator temperature rises above 127 ± 7°F (53 ± 4°C), the control board reads a

.804kΩsignalfromthethermistor and operates the safety. This shuts down the circuit

and the icemaker automatically stops.

The control board will signal this problem using 1 beep every 3 seconds. The "ALARM

RESET" button on the control board must be pressed with power on to reset the safety.

d) Low Water Safety

The control board checks the position of the ﬂoat switch at the end of the initial one

minute water ﬁll cycle and at the end of each harvest cycle.

If the ﬂoat switch is in the up position (electrical circuit closed), the control board

changes to the ice making cycle. If the ﬂoat switch is in the down position (electrical

circuit open), the control board changes to additional one minute water ﬁll cycles until

water enters the sump and the ﬂoat switch closes. When the ﬂoat switch closes, the

control board changes to the ice making cycle. The unit will not start without adequate

water in the sump. This serves as a low water safety to protect the pump motor from

mechanical seal failure.

For water-cooled model, if the water is shut off, the unit is protected by the high pressure

switch.

e) High Voltage and Low Voltage Cut-outs

The maximum and minimum allowable supply voltages of this icemaker are limited by the

high voltage and low voltage cut-outs.

If miswiring (especially on single phase 3 wire models) causes excessive voltage

(147Vac ±5% or more) on the control board, the high voltage cut-out shuts down the

circuit in 3 seconds and the icemaker automatically stops. The control board will signal

this problem using 7 beeps every 3 seconds.

The icemaker also automatically stops in cases of insufﬁcient voltage (92Vac ±5% or

less). The control board will signal this problem using 6 beeps every 3 seconds.

When the proper supply voltage is resumed, the icemaker automatically starts running

again.

f) LED Lights and Audible Alarm Safeties

The red LED indicates proper control voltage and will remain on unless a control voltage

problem occurs. At startup, a 5 second delay occurs while the board conducts an internal

timer check. A beep occurs when the power is turned off.

The green LEDs 1 through 4 energize and sequence from initial startup as listed in the

table below. Note that the order of the LEDs from the outer edge of the board is 1, 4, 3,
