OUTPUT DEFINITIONS DOOR LOCKED LIGHT OUTPUT NOTE: This section applies only to washers between Series 10 and 16. The "Door Locked" lights on washers from Series 17 and after are controlled by a "Door Locked" light switch. END-OF-CYCLE SIGNAL OUTPUT The End-Of-Cycle Signal Output is an internal signal on the machine control between the microprocessor and annunciator. The end-ofcycle signal sounds when a wash cycle is finished and the End-Of-Cycle Input is energized. The end-of-cycle signal sounds as six pulses in a 0.35 seconds on, 0.15 seconds off pattern (See Timer Input Charts). The Door Locked Light Output signal powers a 1/3 watt neon indicator lamp on the control panel. This output is first energized when the Door Lock Wax Motor Output is energized. At the end of the cycle, it remains energized for 50 seconds after the Door Lock Switch Input shuts down. This delay allows the wax motor to fully retract and unlock the door. NOTE: The washer will continue to tumble at the end of cycle until this 50 second delay is elapsed. DOOR LOCK WAX MOTOR OUTPUT The Door Lock Wax Motor Output signal powers a wax motor in the door lock assembly. The wax motor extends to drive the door lock system for the washer. If the washer is started with the timer set in a Prewash Tumble, Main Wash Tumble, or Light Wash Tumble increment, the machine control will wait for three minutes before energizing the Door Lock Wax Motor Output. This delay is not affected by water level. This output remains energized until the end of the cycle. If the washer is started with the timer set in a Prewash Drain, Bleach Dispense, Spin1, Rinse Tumble, Spin2, or Spin3 increment, the machine control will energize this output immediately. ON LIGHT OUTPUT NOTE: This section applies only to washers from Series 17 and after. The "Door Locked" lights on washers between Series 10 and 16 are controlled by a cam on the timer. The Door Locked Light Output signal powers a 1/3 watt neon indicator lamp on the control panel. This output is energized when the washer is operating in a wash or spin cycle. Note that the "On" light is not illuminated when the timer is in a delay increment. TIMER MOTOR OUTPUT The machine control energizes the Timer Motor Output to allow for variable-length timer increments. If the washer is started with the timer set in a Prewash Tumble, Main Wash Tumble, Light Wash Tumble, or Rinse Tumble increment, the machine control will not begin the cycle sequence timing until the water level reaches the appropriate level. The Timer Motor Output is disengaged during this time. The machine control will stop the washer by disengaging the line relay if the following occur: 1) The machine control energizes the timer motor until it senses a timer change. 2) The timer motor remains energized for five minutes while the timer inputs change (See Timer Input Charts). The machine control will continuously energize the Door Lock Wax Motor Output during the final (Spin 3) sequence until 30 seconds before the washer begins to coast from the final speed. 16008373-01 © 1998 Maytag Corporation SECTION 1.
