Scrolling Message Procedure

!
Messages can be programmed to appear in the display
during the cook cycle or after the 60 second shutdown
(idle).
1. Open the oven door, leave open.
2. Press buttons 6, 1 and 5.
3. Close the oven door. Five characters (letters,
numbers, etc.) will appear in the display.
4. The location of characters (lines down and spaces
across have been assigned identifiers from "0"
through "F" as shown:
Circles = location to start writing
Squares = end of writing location
00 - 4F is the idle message location
50 - 6F is the first cook message
70 - 8F is the second cook message
90 - AF is the third cook message
B0 - CF is the fourth cook message
D0 - EF is the fifth cook message
5. To simplify programming a scrolling message. Make
a copy of the character location chart shown. Write
the message on the copy in the correct location.
WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury, or death,
disconnect power to unit and discharge the capacitor
before following any disassembly procedures.
6. To enter the message:
a. Use button 4 to slew to the desired location.
b. Use button 3 to slew to the desired space for the
character location.
c. Use button 1 to slew to the letter or number want
to write. You can use button 2 to advance 10
letters or numbers at a time.
d. Again use button 3 to move to the next open
character location. Repeat step c to enter the
next letter or number in your message.
e. Repeat this process until the message has been
programmed, then use button 3 to enter an end-
of-message "5E" in the next location.
f. To delete a message, program an end-of-
message "5E" as the first character in the
message.
The drawing below shows the sequence of characters as
they are slewed into the display by button 1.
7. Open and close the oven door to revert to normal
operation.
Cook Message Notes:
No cook message will appear unless the cook time is 20
seconds or longer.
Cook message one will appear the first time the oven is
started. The second time the oven is started, message
two will appear, etc.
