PROGRAMMABLE LAUNDRY APPLIANCE

摘要

A laundry machine control system and method of operating the same are disclosed. The system includes various slates of cycles pre-programmed into a CPU which controls the machine. Each of the slates includes numerous different cycles, each preferably designed to clean a different typ e of fabric. Particularly, each of the slates is programmed with the cycles expected to be used in a specific environment. The system of this invention allows for a programmer to select a desired slate from among the pre- programmed slates. It is also possible to reprogram a slate with cycles not originally part of that slate. Furthermore, it is possible, through the control system of the invention, to redefine a specific cycle including the individu al steps and operations thereof.
