Operating the EKC 315A

The Display
The EKC 315A has a three character digital display. Four status LEDs
(Light Emitting Diodes) are to the left of the numerals. To the right of
the display are two push buttons.
By default, the display normally shows the superheat but user
programming allows the valve's opening degree or air temperature
to be selected as the normal display. At any given time, depressing
the lower pushbutton will change from what was selected to be
in the normal display to one of the other values depending on the
setting in parameter o17, which will be displayed for 5 seconds.
The default setting is for °C and bar to be shown in the display, but
the units can easily be changed to °F and psig. See parameter r05.
The Front Panel LEDs
The upper LED (next to the valve symbol) lights to indicate the
valve's opening degree. A short pulse indicates a small liquid flow
and a long pulse a heavy liquid flow.
The LED next to the snowflake symbol lights to indicate that the
controller is calling for refrigeration.
The three lowermost LED's will flash, if there is an alarm or an error in
regulation. In this situation, pushing the upper button for 1 second
will cause the alarm or error code to be displayed.
When an alarm code is displayed by pushing the upper button, the
alarm relay will be cut out.
The error (prefix E), alarm (prefix A), and status (prefix S) codes that
can appear, along with the meaning of each code, are given in the
table below.
