  • Page 15: Statistics

    2. Statistics Serve for function control and long-term monitoring of the system. For system data statistics it is essential for the time to be set accurately on the controller. Please note that the clock con- tinues to run for about 24 hours if the mains voltage is inter- rupted, and afterward must be reset.
  • Page 16: Operating Mode

    3. Operating mode Automatic The automatic mode is the normal mode of the controller. A correct controller function under consideration of the current tem- peratures and the set parameters is only present in automatic mode! After an interruption of the mains voltage, the controller auto- matically returns to the last operating mode selected.
  • Page 17: Settings

    4. Settings By no means does the controller replace the safety appliances on site! Tmin S1 Enable/start temperature at sensor 1: If this value on the sensor 1 (collector sensor) is exceeded and the other conditions are not fulfilled, the controller will turn on the affiliated pump or the valve.
  • Page 18: Priority Temperature

    Example: if several storages or storage areas in your system are integrated, you can specify a priority for each sensor of the stor- age or the storage area. The "X" in the menu item priority S(X) indicates the sensor of the respective storage or storage area. The priority for the first storage is thus set under priority S2 and for the 2.
  • Page 19: Protective Functions

    5. Protective Functions The 'Protective functions‘ can be used by specialists to activate and set vari- ous protective functions. By no means does the controller replace the safety appliances on site! System protection Priority protection function The system protection should prevent an overheating of the components installed in the system through the forced shut down of the solar circulation pump.
  • Page 20: Collector Alarm

    Collector alarm If this temperature at the collector sensor is exceeded when the solar pump is turned on, a warning or error notification is triggered. There is a corresponding warning in the display. Pressure Monitoring In this menu, the system pressure monitoring can be activated through a direct sensor. Once the set pressure conditions are exceeded, a message is generated and the LED flashes red.
  • Page 21: Purging Time

    Mode M2: The controller changes to the set min. speed after the Speed. If the temperature difference ∆T between the reference sensors is above the set switch on temperature difference ∆T R1, the speed will be increased. If the temperature difference ∆T between the reference sensors is below the set switch on temperature difference ∆T R1, the speed will be reduced.
  • Page 22: Solar Bypass

    Solar bypass Variant In this menu, you can set if the flow is guided through the bypass with a pump or a valve. Bypass sensor The reference sensor for the bypass function to be placed in the flow is selected in this menu. Thermostat Through the thermostat function, additional energy can be added to the system while being time and temperature controlled.
  • Page 23: Periods

    Periods Cooling release times Here the desired periods are set in which the cooling function is approved. For each weekday, three times can be specified, fur- thermore, you can copy individual day to other days. The cooling function is shut down outside of the set release times. Return flow increase With this function, for example, the return temperature of a heating circuit is increased through the storage.
  • Page 24: Heat Transfer

    As soon as it has heated up with “AL” turned on, information with the date will be shown in the display. This anti legionella function does not offer any secure protection against legionella, because the controller requires an adequate added amount of energy and the temperatures cannot be monitored in the entire storage area and the con- nected pipe system.
  • Page 25: Df-Source

    Switch off - difference: If this temperature difference is reached, the relay will switch off. DF-Source Heat source sensor/heat supplier for differential function Adjusts the sensor from the heat source. Diff. Tmin Minimum temperature on the source sensor for approval of the difference relay. If the temperature on the source sensor is below this value, the difference function will not be switched on.
  • Page 26: Pressure Monitor

    The additional function error message activates the relay for certain events and only deactivates again when the information mes- sage to each event was read. Pressure monitor In this menu, the system pressure monitoring can be activated through a direct sensor. As soon as the set pressure conditions are undershot or exceeded, the set relay will switch on.
  • Page 27: Room Sensor

    Room sensor Select the reference sensor for the room temperature. Room Reference (Night) Set room temperature for the night-time mode If the temperature is exceeded at the room sensor outside the set times, the relay will turn off. Room Reference (Day) Set room temperature for the daytime mode If the temperature is exceeded at the room sensor at the set times, the relay will turn off.
  • Page 28: Sensor Calibration

    Sensor Calibration Deviations in the temperature values displayed, for example. due to cables which are too long or sensors which are not posi- tioned optimally can be compensated for manually here. The settings can be made for each individual sensor in steps of 0.5 °C. Settings are only necessary in special cases at the time of initial commissioning by the specialist.
