Access Manitowoc Indigo History April 29 2015, 6 Comments

One of the most frustrating things about diagnosing an ice machine, is catching the problem when it happens.  A lot of time can be wrapped up in simply watching an ice machine make ice, hoping to catch the exact moment an ice machine part fails.  That’s why Manitowoc included data logging in the Indigo, which allows a technician to read through data history.

To access data history on an Indigo ice machine, press the Checkmark with Data History highlighted.  There is a lot of history stored, so to access all the information be sure to use the Down arrow to scroll through all available dates.  For each date listed, the following information will become available.

  • Minimum Freeze
  • Maximum Freeze
  • Minimum Harvest
  • Maximum Harvest
  • Maximum Temperature Delta T3-T4
  • Delta
  • T3
  • T4
  • Run Time
  • Ice Production
  • Cycle Count
  • Potable Water
  • Clean Cycles

For lifetime information you can access the following information about your ice machine.

  • Install Date
  • Control Board Replacement Date
  • Control Board DOM or date it was manufactured
  • Run Time
  • Cycle Count
  • Potable Water
  • Clean Cycles

Some of this information may be inaccurate, due to failing probes or ambient temperature swings.  However, the history of cycles found in your Indigo ice maker can better help technicians diagnose the problem and faster.  This all helps save you maintenance costs when keeping your business, IN ICE!
