An interruption of the power supply is effected by means of the mains discon- nector of the compressor. Modules The basic equipment of the FOCUS consists of a basic module and a keypad/ display unit (TAN). Amongst others the following modules are optionally available: –...
Navigation keys Navigation in the menu, displays, dryer status, navigation in the parameter display, setting of values. INFO key Display of faults, warnings or maintenance messages, log book, quitting of settings. Page 2 BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors...
The compressor must be electrically and pneumatically connected, the pow- er supply voltage must be turned on and the ball valves and / or balanced disc stop valves between compressor and compressed air receiver must be opened. BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors Page 3...
If the compressor status Ready is displayed, the compressor is in the "ready- for-operation" status. That means that the compressor automatically (re)starts pressure and / or time controlled – as long as the conditions to do so are ful- filled. Page 4 BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors...
The display of the TAN has to be cleaned with a damped yet not wet cloth from time to time. As detergents customary household detergents for greasy sur- faces can be used. No further maintenance is required for the control. BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors Page 5...
* If the functions auto re-start and / or remote start / stop are parameterised, the key must be pressed after unlocking the emergency stop button to leave the emergency stop function. Page 6 BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors...
The leakage measurement serves to record the duration of the operating load times and to extrapolate them for the whole year. This allows you to quantify any leakages and to easily determine their portion of additional costs due to any energy losses. BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors Page 7...
Page 14
In order to determine exact leakage measurement values make sure that, dur- ing a time frame of 12 hours, there will in all probability be no operational com- pressed air production. Page 8 BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors...
The number 9999 appears next to Lc. Continuous measurement will start immediately and keep being carried out. After the twelve-hour time frame, during which no operational production has taken place, has been exceed- ed a sound measurement value is obtained.

Changes to the displayed settings have to be accomplished by means of the parameter settings, if applicable, (see also chapter „1.4 Settings“, page 13) or by changing the automatically registered configuration (see also ’Remove modules and input contacts‘).

In case of a switched-off power supply the real-time-clock is operated by its battery – provided the plug-in jumper contacts arranged next to it are connect- ed and their voltage is sufficient (see also chapter Maintenance). BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors Page 11...
Note! Relay modules are not displayed. If the display of a module is flashing the communication with this module is faulty. You can leave Module Info by actuating the INFO key Page 12 BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors...
If you are in the adjustment range of a parameter, it can be left again by actu- ating the INFO key . You have to actuate the INFO key once more to close the list. BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors Page 13...

This parameter determines the ON / Off switching function of the control via TAN, a potential-free contact or the Bus. In case the parameter is selected unequal 0, a switching On or Off via TAN of the FOCUS is no longer possible. Setting Meaning The On / Off switching is effectuated solely by the control keyboard (local).

25) allows several linked compressors in turns to produce the required quantity of compressed air. This parameter serves to determine the number of compressors which are to be controlled by a master FOCUS in the base load switching mode. The base load switch control is designed for compressors of the same size.

Pressure range 2 of the BLS is only active if corresponding adjustments of the switch clock have been made and / or the external contact for the pres- sure range selection is active. Page 20 BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors...
As of version 1.18 parameters P075 to P078 (p and p of BLS pressure ranges 1 and 2) are added. These parameters regulate the output release of the base load switch control via pressure measurement. BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors Page 21...

If the system pressure display starts to flash, all parameterised pressure limi- tations are deactivated, and the compressor is in operation while the -key is pressed. This function is terminated by pressing the OFF key or switching to another screen. Page 24 BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors...
All relay modules must be installed in the switch cabinet of the master com- pressor. A FOCUS control is changed into a master unit by setting its parameter 70 (number of compressors) at any value above 1. This means at the same time that for any other FOCUS control equipped (slave) compressors this number must be set at 1.

Warning message / Fault message Example without monitoring and emergency operation function Four compressors (145 psi), all of which are equipped with a FOCUS control, are connected by means of RS485 interfaces. The pressure at user's facility is to be completely released over the weekend and over night and, in addition, be able to be reduced.
The red LED is continuously illuminated after the pre-acknowledgement of the fault and the compressor status display shows Fault until the fault has been rectified. Only then the compressor can be started again. Page 28 BOGE FOCUS compressor control for piston compressors...
