1.2 Introduction 1.2.1 Humidity control The ComDry dehumidifier is equipped with a sophisticated microprocessor based control system. This, in combination with the built-in humidity/temperature sensor in the process air inlet, makes it possible to set both the control and presentation of the humidity to either relative humidity (RH%), dew point (Dp °C) or absolute humidity (X gr/kg).

Connect the dehumidifier to mains. Result: The control system will initiate by flashing all LEDs for a few seconds, and the display first shows the ComDry machine type, then the set frequency, e. g. [50Hz] and finally the software version number, e. g. [VER: 1.00] and the current humidity level, e. g. [*RH1 46%].
ComDry Control System 1.5 Stop the dehumidifier CA UTION! UTION! UTION! Do not unplug the dehumidifier while it is cooling down. The fan stops and the heater can be very hot, which can result in damage to the heater and other components close to it.

ComDry Control System 1.15 Service interval alarm The Service interval [T-xxxx h] can be set between 500 and 8.000 hours. To reset counters you must have “one-star” access. Follow these steps to change the service interval (see also 1.11, Change the system settings):...
ComDry Control System 2 Menus and parameters To set the system parameters, see 1.11, Change the system settings and 1.13, Reset the counters. For limits when setting parameters, see 2.7, Min, max and default values. 2.1 Humidity The dehumidifier is always operating in automatic mode. It will dehumidify until the desired humidity level (Set Value minus Hysteresis value) is reached.
ComDry Control System 2.1.1 Internal controlling sensor The internal humidity sensor is the controlling sensor as default. This is indicated by a (*) before the reading in the display (*RH1… / *D1… / *X1…). 2.1.2 External controlling sensor Optionally, an external sensor can be connected. It will automatically be designated RH2 / D2 / X2) by the system.
ComDry Control System 2.3 Power The ComDry dehumidifier is equipped with an integrated, resettable kWh counter. The energy consumption is registered when the dehumidifier is connected to mains, regardless of being switched on, off or in stand-by mode. The counter shows the consumption as whole kW-hours.
ComDry Control System 2.4 Temperature The air temperature is measured in different positions in the dehumidifier. All values are read-only. If external humidity/temperature sensors are connected, these will also be found in the list. The reactivation inlet temperature (Ri) before the heater and reactivation temperature (Rt) after the heater, as well as the wet air temperature (Wt) and the process air inlet temperature (T1) is measured.
ComDry Control System 2.5 Functions 2.5.1 Process fan mode There are three process fan modes: Fan mode Description [Fan ON] In [Fan ON] mode, the dehumidifier will run the process fan continuously, regardless of there is a dehumidification need or not. This is the default mode.
