HeaterCompact, Heater Slim and FlexLine series. The Spa Touch Control is state of the art technology. In order to be able to operate the Spa Touch Control reliably or to set it up, please read this manual. Since the units feature diffe- rent controls, the operating menus differ from each other with respect to some of the operating steps.
The user is a person who wants to "utilize" the steam bath facil- ity. User operation of the steam bath is limited to the essentials. The operating functions of the Spa Touch Control accessible to the user are depicted in the "User level".
2. Overview The HygroMatik Spa Touch Control is a compact display and operating panel for HygroMatik steam generators. Use direct on the steam generator or separated from it via cable with a maximum length of 50 m. 2.1 Characteristics of the Spa Touch Control •...
2.2 Scope of supply The "Spa Touch Control" ordering package includes the follow- ing items: • Touch-sensitive 5 inch monitor (touchscreen) • Connecting cable 20 cm long, RJ45 plug on one end, 4-pin system specific connector on the other •...
3. Mechanical setup The Spa Touch Control consists of the monitor assembly, the installation well with 2 attachment bores for the monitor assem- bly with rear welded M4 nuts and the faceplate. The monitor assembly is designed as a sandwich construction.
4.2 Choice of installation location The installation of the Spa Touch Control can be made inside or outside the steam cabin. The installation height above the floor is to be selected so that easy reading of the screen is possible for the kind of usage envisaged (sitting or standing operation).
RJ45 plug. Alternatively the Cat 5 control cable can be connected directly to the Spa Touch Control. For this purpose the 4-pin system plug of the adapter cable is to used. Since the plug uses spring-type ter- minals, non-destructive dismantling of the adapter cable is pos- sible.
One component part of this kit is an RJ45 socket in the form of a feedthrough housing (see adjacent illus- tration). The Cat 5 cable from the Spa Touch Control is inserted into this socket. If the permanent cable is to be directly connected to the steam generator an RJ45 socket is to be fitted to its end.
The communication parameters of the serial interface of almost all of the HygroMatik steam generators quoted are set ex factory in a way that the compatibility with the Spa Touch Control is given (9600 Baud/No parity/1 Stopbit). Exception from the rule is the FlexLine steam generator that requires a change of parame- ters (s.

11: Communications 01: Address 02: Baudrate 19200 03: Parity None 04: Stopbits » It is only required to make a baudrate setting change. For that reason, touch the second line in the view and select „9600“ as the new baudrate (to allow for this, change the view page by means of the scroll-up key).
6. Time control of the steam generator with the aid of Spa Touch Control With the aid of Spa Touch Control the steam generator can be run in manual mode, short-term mode (steam release is made for a fixed period) or timer mode (weekly schedule). In addition to these, mixed modes are possible.
6.1.3 Timer mode The on/off switching times for operation are saved to a weekly schedule. If there are no other activations (short-term mode or manual override) the weekly schedule directly determines the times for steam release. The three possible variants are described as follows: Timer mode Steam release...

8. Initial operation When the steam generator with Spa Touch Control connected is switched on the following start screen appears: SW-XXXXX When initial operation is concerned after a brief period the dis- play switches to the following screen in which there are not yet any operating options for the user.

9. Operation 9.1 User and operator functions Differentiation is made between user operation and display func- tions and extended functions available to the operator only - after entering a password. Settings can only be changed by the operator. One exception is the modification of the set-point tem- perature of the steam bath which can be carried out by the user if permitted by the operator.
9.2 Overview of operating and display ele- ments for the user (main screen) With FlexLine units, the timer function (weekly schedule) is substi- tuted by the weekly timer implemented in the FlexLine control. The status display of the Spa Control Touch (timer activation phase on/ off) is controlled by the FlexLine control when connected.
9.3 Operation by user 9.3.1 General operation The selection of individual functions such as "Steam generation on", "Essence supply off" is prompted by briefly touching the respective icons in the main screen with a finger. Please note Since a capacitive touchscreen is involved sure functioning is only provided by direct touch with a finger.
Both operating functions are launched and the main screen changes as follows: Main screen with operating functions launched Steam release and fan are now enabled. By retouching the respective button the relevant function can be switched off although in the case of the steam release this is only possible as long as the operator has not set a default runtime.

If enabled by the operator the temperature display now changes from "actual" to "set". Display and changing of the set point temperature » with button change the set point tempera- ture in 0.5 °C increments. » Accept setting and return to actual temperature display by touching the temperature display again.
(when connected to a HeaterSlim or a FlexLine unit, particularities apply - see foot notes) . In addition there are icons/ buttons present which are only relevant for the operator. After commissioning the Spa Touch Control all functions are initially deactivated: Operating functions...

Insofar as functions with modifiable parameters (e.g. parameters "Essence intensity" for the "Essence supply") are concerned, the release of the function is made in 2 stages (see Section "Select- ing steam control and changing settings). Example: On the main screen only the icons for "Light on/off" plus "Fan on/off"...
