  • Page 15: Menu Sequence And Menu Structure

    Operation Menu sequence and menu structure The graphics or overview mode appears when no key has been pressed for 2 minutes, or when the main menu is exited by pressing “esc“. In the graphics menu the display shows (from the top right corner downwards) temperatures at connected sensors, then the current speed of a PWM controlled solar pump, and the current flow rate in the bottom right corner, calculated from the incoming PWM signal (if the incoming PWM signal from the pump is connected).
  • Page 16: Measurements

    Measurements 1. - Measurements Menu „1. Measurements” serves to display the currently measured temperatures. What measurement values are displayed depends on the selected program and the specific controller model. The menu is closed by pressing „esc” or selecting „Exit measurements”. If “--”...
  • Page 17: Statistics

    Statistics 2. - Statistics Menu „2. Statistics” is used for function control and long-term monitoring of the system. The menu is closed by pressing „esc” or selecting „Exit statistics”. For analysis of the system data it is essential that time is set accurately on the controller.
  • Page 18: Display Mode

    Display mode 3. - Display mode Menu “3. Display mode” is used to define the controller’s display for normal operation. This display appears whenever two minutes go by without any key being pressed. The main menu appears again when a key is pressed.
  • Page 19: Operating Mode

    This can lead, for example, to overheating on the solar collector or other system components. The measured temperatures are Warning displayed even when the controller is Off. 4.4. - Fill system This is not used for Regulus solar thermal systems.
  • Page 20: Settings

    Temperature values which are set rather high will allow higher solar heat accumulation but it shall be checked that all system components are resistant to high temperature and scalding protection is provided. Regulus Danger solar systems are safe for heating water up to 95 °C.
  • Page 21: Tref On / Tref Off (For Variants 1 And 2)

    Settings 5.11 – Tref On / Tref Off (for variants 4 and 3) If the temperature at the sensor S3 drops below “Tref On” and the thermostat function is on, the relay for an auxiliary heating will switch on and remain on until the tempera- ture reaches “Tref Off”.
  • Page 22: Seizing Protection

    If the collector temperature then exceeds the value “Frost level 2” by 2 °C, then the pump switches off again. This function causes energy loss via the collector! As Regulus solar thermal systems are filled with antifreeze fluid, the antifreeze protection shall remain off. Caution 6.3.
  • Page 23: Collector Protection

    Protective functions Protections 6.4 - Collector protection If „CProt Ton” is exceeded at the collector sensor, the pump is switched on in order to cool the collector down. The pump turns off when the collector temperature drops below „CProt Toff” or the temperature “Cprot Tmax storage” is exceeded in the storage or pool. When this function is active, a storage tank or swimming pool may get heated up to “Storage maximum”, over Tmax S2 (see 5.4.

    Special functions 7.2.3. - Output Signal This menu determines the type of pump used: Solar pumps perform at their highest power when the signal is also at its maximum. Heating pump on the other hand are set to highest power when the control signal is at the lowest. Solar pump = normal, Hea- ting pump = inverted.
  • Page 27: Speed Control

    Special functions 7.3. - Speed control SRS1 T enables changing the speed of connected pumps using this function. This function should only be activated by a specialist. Depending on the pump used and its performance, the minimum speed should not be set too low, because otherwise the pump or the system may be damaged.
  • Page 28: Purging Time

    Special functions 7.3.2. - Purging time During this time period, the pump is running with full speed (100%) to ensure trouble-free startup. After this time has passed, the pump is set to speed control and is set to max. speed or min speed, depending on the speed control mode (M1-M3) chosen. 7.3.3.
  • Page 29: Time & Date

    Special functions 7.4. - Time & date This menu is used to set the current time and date. For analysis of the system data it is essential for the time to be set accurately on the controller. Caution 7.5. - Sensor calibration Deviations in the temperature values displayed, for example due to cables which are too long or sensors which are not positioned optimally, can be compensated for manually here.
  • Page 30: Starting Aid

    Special functions 7.9. - Starting aid With some solar thermal systems, especially with vacuum tube collectors, it may occur that the measurement value acquisition at the collector sensor occurs too slowly or too inaccurately because the sensor is often not at the hottest location. When the start help is activated the following sequence is carried out: If the temperature at the collector sensor increases by the value specified under “Increase”...
