CS-8 Setting Begin New Day

This setting indicates the time of day that the controller starts accumulating statistics for a new day. The CS-8 value can be set from 12:00 AM (midnight) to 8:00 AM, in half-hour increments (12:00 AM, 12:30 AM, 1:00 AM, 1:30 AM, etc.). Note that this setting only affects how the "Daily Stats" values are tallied, and has no other affect on fryer operation.

If set to 3:00 AM, for example, then late night cook cycles and filter operations from midnight to 3:00 AM are accumulated with the previous day's statistics.

For example, assume a store closes at 2:00 AM. In this case, they would probably want the CS-8 value set to 3:00 AM, in order to catch filter operations that may be performed after the store closes. Late-night operation from midnight to 3:00 AM on Tuesday will then be accumulated into the Monday statistics totals. When the store opens again at 8:00 AM on Tuesday, it will start the day with no cook cycles or filters yet.

  1. Press the up and down arrow buttons to change the time the new day starts. Clock Set is now complete.

  2. Press the program button and hold to exit.
