Processor Setup Options
The processor software allows for 4 optional configurations.
• Celsius or Fahrenheit Developer Temperature Display Units (Models M43 and M43A Processors
Only)
• Standard or Flooded Replenishment
• Standby Mode or Continuous Mode
• Low or Continuous Water Usage Mode
The 4 optional configurations can only be selected by qualified service personnel. Typically, the
options are configured at the time of installation, but you may change the options at any time by calling
your service provider.
Developer Temperature Display Units: (Models M43 and M43A Processors Only) You may
choose between degrees Celsius (°C) or degrees Fahrenheit (°F). The processor is factory set to display
Celsius units. To display Fahrenheit units, call your service provider.
Standard or Flooded Replenishment: The processor is factory set to the Standard Replenishment
Mode, but you may choose to set up the processor for flooded replenishment. Flooded Replenishment
Mode is intended for sites having low film volumes. Refer to the Replenishment Sheet, Publication
No. 1C0578, for low volume specifications. In the Flooded Replenishment Mode, every 24 minutes
the processor pumps the correct volume of replenishment solutions to process the equivalent of one 35
x 43 cm (14 x 17 in.) sheet of film. If you wish to operate the processor in Flooded Replenishment
Mode, call your service provider.
Standby Mode or Continuous Mode: The processor is factory set for the Standby Mode. In the
Standby Mode the processor's Main Drive, Dryer Blower, Dryer Heater, and Wash Pump remain off.
Note: The Wash Pump may turn on during Standby Mode if cooling for the developer is required.
Standby Mode conserves both electricity and water and minimizes wear on moving parts. Ordinarily,
you may allow the processor to operate in Standby Mode. If you have selected the Continuous Mode,
the processor never enters a standby condition. This mode can be used in extreme conditions to
maintain optimum processing. For example: very cold ambient conditions, below 15°C (59°F); low
voltage sites; or sites running large films continuously back to back for long periods of time. If you
wish to operate the processor in the Continuous Mode, call your service provider.
Low or Continuous Water Usage Mode: The processor is factory set for Continuous Water Usage
Mode. In this mode, water runs at one litre per minute. This allows fresh water to circulate through
the processor and prevent biological growth. If biological growth is not a concern and you wish to
operate the processor in Low Water Usage Mode, call your service provider.
