The Computer Controlled Super Unimatic Washes!

[Unimatic1140]

Mathewhebailey0 I don't quite understand what you are trying to do with your Otis elevator, but since a few people have asked to see the VisualBasic6 code that I wrote for the Super Unimatic software, I posted it at this link. All the fun stuff, controlling the actual cycles, is at the very bottom. You might be able to adapt it for your Elevator project.

but don't the electronics/wiring inside the cabinet get wet from all that water flying around? Is the wiring protected somehow?

Eugene, early Frigidaire washer cabinets (as well as ABC, Apex, Kelvinator, Thor) had no outer tub. The cabinet served as the outer tub as there was a sealed shelf about 2/3 way down the cabinet to hold the water. All the electrical components are under this shelf or behind the machine. You can see this in this picture...

I can't get side tracked

Well Mr. Seger!

What a project! Since your doing all this geeky stuff (you called it that I didn't) and your very good at it. I think you should come up with a remote control washer. If someone hasn't already said that. Or make the control panel built into the wall or something. Just think how many wealthy people would love to have the computerized wall panel just so their ahead of the Jones. Have bins that they fill with soap,bleach and softener once a month and everything is controled from the panel. I guess thats what the staff is for but, they still would buy it.
I have a friend that can control his house from anywhere in the world. Lights,TV whatever is electronical. He'd probably buy one! LOL

Talented? The guy's a genius. You're incredible Robert.
Thanks for all you've done with this web site as well.
Also, Robert, thank you for your review of the CD recording of my Unimatic problem. I'll check out the fan, and retighten it when I get a chance within a few weeks. Hopefully that was all that was wrong.
