Functions of the heating circuit Receive value AF2 CO7 -> F09 - 1; register no. 5.1.1 Gradient characteristic Basically, the following rule applies: a decrease in the outdoor temperature causes the flow temperature to increase. By varying the parameters Gradient and Level, you can adapt the characteristic to your indi- vidual requirements: The gradient needs to be increased if the room temperature [°C]...
Page 76
Functions of the heating circuit The level needs to be decreased and the gradient increased [°C] if the room temperature rises when it is mild outside. –20 [°C] Outside the times-of-use, reduced set points are used for control: The reduced flow set point is calculated as the difference between the adjusted values for Day set point (rated room temperature) and Night set point (reduced room temperature).
Functions of the heating circuit 5.1.2 Four-point characteristic The four-point characteristic allows you to define your own heating characteristic. It is defined by four points each for the Outdoor temperature, the Flow temperature, the Re- duced flow temperature and the Return flow temperature. The Max. flow temperature and Min. flow temperature parameters mark the upper and lower limits of the flow temperature.

Functions of the heating circuit Note: A fixed set point control in heating circuit 2 with CO2 -> F02 - 0 can only be config- ured if CO1 -> F02 - 0 is set as well, because the heating circuit 2 with CO2 -> F02 - 0 only uses the measured outdoor temperature provided by heating circuit 1.
Functions of the heating circuit The drying process has been successfully completed when the additional icon in the flow tem- perature display goes out after the last phase. Any power failure that occurs while the func- tion is running automatically restarts the drying function. In systems in which the drying function is interrupted due to DHW heating (e.g.
Functions of the heating circuit ture falls below this value (less 0.5 °C hysteresis), heating operation is restarted immediately. With the default settings, this means that, at night, the system is switched off at an outdoor temperature of 15 °C to save energy. Nevertheless, remember that the system requires some time in the morning to heat up the building.

Functions of the heating circuit storage tank is completed, the buffer tank can be charged. In system Anl 14.3, a solar circuit with reroutable heat transfer medium flow is integrated. If the temperature difference be- tween the collector sensor RüF2 and one of the tank storage sensors SF3 or SF4 is greater than the Solar circuit pump ON, the solar circuit pump UP2 is switched on and the corre- sponding storage tank is charged.
Page 83
Functions of the heating circuit Note: The buffer tank control circuit is deactivated as described in section x. When prede- fined gradients of heating characteristic (CO1 > F11 - 0) are used, night mode is not possi- ble in the buffer tank control circuit. In contrast to an active four-point characteristic (CO1 > F11 - 1): in this case, a four-point characteristic exists for day and night modes.

Functions of the heating circuit Delayed outdoor temperature adaptation The calculated outdoor temperature is used to determine the flow temperature set point. The heat response is delayed when the outdoor temperature either decreases, increases or in- creases and decreases. If the outdoor temperature varies by, for example, 12 °C within a very short period of time, the calculated outdoor temperature is adapted to the actual out- door temperature in small steps.

Functions of the heating circuit icons blink on the display. Outside the times-of-use, the controller monitors the Night set point (reduced room temperature). When the temperature falls below the night set point, the controller heats with the max. flow temperature until the measured room tempera- ture exceeds the adjusted value by 1 °C.

Functions of the DHW circuit DHW heating with solar system The systems Anl 1.3, 1.4, 1.7, 1.8, 2.3, 2.4, 3.3, 3.4, 4.3, 10.3, 11.3 and 11.4 include a solar system for DHW heating. In these systems, the difference between the temperatures measured at storage sensor SF3 and the sensor at the solar collector VF3 is determined.
Functions of the DHW circuit perature for parallel pump operation. In this case, the controller applies priority operation, if necessary with intermediate heating. Once a parallel pump operation cycle has been acti- vated and the time for Stop parallel operation in case of deviation has elapsed, system devi- ations greater than 5 °C cause the controller to suspend parallel operation for 10 minutes and to apply priority operation.
Functions of the DHW circuit Circulation pump operation CO4 -> F11 during storage tank charging Priority operation In many district heating systems with primary DHW heating, the allotted amount of water does not cover the DHW heating and the heating system at the same time.

Functions of the DHW circuit 6.11 Thermal disinfection In all systems with DHW heating, the DHW storage tank is thermally disinfected on a selected Day of the week or every day. In systems with DHW storage tank, it is heated up, taking into account the Charging tem- perature boost parameter (or Set point boost, depending on the system) to the adjusted Disinfection temperature.
Page 105
Functions of the DHW circuit Note: This function is not available when a storage tank thermostat is used. Controllers that are linked over a device bus are subjected to return flow temperature limitation in the primary control circuit even during the thermal disinfection in a secondary controller.
System-wide functions System-wide functions Automatic summer/standard time swichover The clock is automatically adjusted on the last Sunday in March at 2.00h and on the last Sunday in October at 3.00h. Configuration Function CO5 -> F08 - 1 Summer/standard time switchover Frost protection Frost protection measures are taken when the outdoor temperature falls below the Frost pro- tection limit.
System-wide functions Forced operation of the pumps When the heating circuit pumps have not been activated for 24 hours, forced operation of the pumps is started between 12.02h and 12.03h. This is done to avoid that the pumps get stuck when they are not operated for a longer period of time. In the DHW circuit, the circula- tion pump is operated between 12.04h and 12.05h, the other pumps between 12.05h and 12.06h.
System-wide functions Three-step control The flow temperature can be controlled using a PI algorithm. The valve reacts to pulses that the controller sends when a system deviation occurs. The length of the first pulse, in particu- lar, depends on the extent of the system deviation and the selected Proportional gain K (the pulse length increases as K increases).
System-wide functions change performed by the proportional component (the greater T , the slower the rate of change). Due to the derivative component, any change of the system deviation is incorpo- rated into the output signal with a certain gain (the greater T , the stronger the change).
System-wide functions 7.10 Speed control of the charging pump This function allows the delivery rate of the charging pump in systems with buffer tank (CO1 > F21-1) and in systems with DHW storage tank (CO4 > F21-1) to be varied based on the temperature.
Page 112
System-wide functions Note: Overheating may occur in the heating circuits of the primary controller without control valve. Excessive charging temperatures in DHW circuits without control valve controlled by the pri- mary controller are excluded when the default settings of the controller are used: while stor- age tank charging is active, no flow temperature higher than the charging temperature is used by the primary controller.
System-wide functions Configuration Functions Processing an external demand, binary CO1 -> F17 - 0 Parameter level / Range of values Parameter Set point boost of primary exchanger control 5 °C PA1, 2 / 0 to 50 °C 7.12 Flow rate/capacity limitation in Rk1 Flow rate/capacity limitation can be implemented based on a pulse or standardized signal of 0/4 to 20 mA provided by the heat meter.
System-wide functions troller does not distinguish between a flow rate pulse signal or a capacity pulse signal. As the displayed current pulse rate P [pulse/h] (–> Extended operating level, key number 1999) is calculated depending on the interval between the received pulses, it is natural that the con- troller cannot react immediately to all rapid flow rate or capacity changes which occur in the system.
System-wide functions When the flow rate reaches the current Max. limit value, the flow set point of control circuit Rk1 is reduced. How strongly the controller responds is determined by the Limiting factor. Note: If CO5 -> F00 - 1 is indicated, access to the return flow, flow rate and heat capacity settings are locked.
System-wide functions 7.12.4 Limitation of the calculated capacity The controller is able to calculate the heat capacity used in the system and to limit it depend- ing on the operational circumstances. To achieve this, it uses a connected 0/4 to 20 mA sig- nal for the flow rate, a primary return flow sensor and a primary flow sensor.
System-wide functions 7.13 Device bus Using the device bus, it is possible to connect up to 32 device from the Series 55xx. For con- nection, the TROVIS 5576 Controller is, above all, equipped with the terminals 29/30. No attention must be paid to the polarity of the device bus wiring. Danger of short circuit! If several TROVIS 5576 Controllers in one plant are to be connected to the building control station using the system bus interface and the cable converter 1400-8800, remember that all...

System-wide functions The primary controller compares the received requested demands and its own requested de- mands and supplies the system with the required flow temperature – if necessary increased by the value of the Set point boost of primary exchanger control parameter. Note: Overheating may occur in heating circuits of the primary controller without control valve.
System-wide functions used by the primary controller. Nevertheless, if the Priority for external demand function is activated, the external demand is also processed during storage tank charging.

System-wide functions 7.13.4 Priority over all controllers It is possible to put the heating circuits of other controllers out of operation while the DHW heating is active when the controllers are linked to one another over a device bus. The return flow temperature limitation in the primary circuit can also be raised to the adjusted value for Maximum return flow temperature or for Point 1 of the return flow temperature in a four-point characteristic when the controller is configured correspondingly.

System-wide functions 7.14 Requesting an external demand by issuing a 0 to 10 V signal The controller can request a demand for the maximum flow set point (with boost, if need be) by issuing up to two analog 0 to 10 V signals for external demand with sequence control. For this purpose, the outputs Y1 to Y2 are used as an alternative to issuing the control signal.

Operational faults Operational faults A failure is indicated by the blinking icon on the display. In addition, the display is illumi- nated for 1 second in intervals of 10 seconds when a malfunction persists. The “Error“ mes- sage is immediately displayed. Press the rotary pushbutton to open the error level. It may be possible to view several error messages by turning the rotary pushbutton.
Operational faults Outdoor sensors AF 1/2: When the outdoor sensor fails, the controller uses a flow tem- perature set point of 50 °C or the Max. flow temperature when the Max. flow tempera- ture (adjusted under PA1, 2) is smaller than 50 °C. With the setting CO1, 2 > F05 - 1 (underfloor heating), the flow temperature set point is 30 °C in the event of a malfunction.
Operational faults Error status register The error status register is used to register controller or system errors. The error messages which have an effect on the error status register are listed in the table in bold. Using the function blocks in the configuration level CO8, individual controller inputs that are not used can be assigned as binary inputs to the error status register.

Communication If there is no communication between the control system and the controller, interventions of the control system in dynamic processes can be limited with regard to time using the Control system monitoring function. While valid Modbus requests are registered, the controller resets the time monitoring. Never- theless, after 30 minutes have elapsed, all level bits are re-initialized to “autonomous“...
Communication Meter bus interface With the help of an optional, retrofittable meter bus plug-in module, the TROVIS 5576 Heating and District Heating Controller can communicate with up to 6 meter bus devices ac- cording to EN 1434-3. A flow rate or capacity limitation in every control circuit can be con- figured on the basis of the values measured at heat meters WMZ1 and WMZ2 for systems with two control circuits.
Communication Blinking values in combination with black squares in the top row of the display (error status of the associated meter –> TV-SK 6311) indicate various faults. The controller issues the “Err 9” or “Err 10” error messages. Note: With reading mode “24h“, the displayed values are not updated by reopening the lev- els “buS 1“...
