CRD-XP No active temperature control When the controller is used as a pure defrosting slave, the control can be switched to inactive. In this operation mode, dashes represent the regulating actual value in the display. The control probe F1 is not monitored.
CRD-XP 5 Fan control – Cooling operation and defrosting The parameters P28 and P31 can influence ventilator behaviour. P28 is used to set controls in normal operation, P31 during defrosting. Continuous operation (P28 = 0) If parameter P31 is set to "1", the ventilator is triggered without interruption. At position "0", the ventilator is switched off during defrosting.
CRD-XP 6 Defrosting Display during active defrost During a defrost, the text "dEFr" (defrost) is shown in place of the temperature value in the standard level. The text remains in the display in cold locations with set values of > -15°C to 20 minutes and in cold locations with set values of <...

CRD-XP To prevent other devices triggering their own time-controlled defrost, the second device should be programmed as the SLAVE via parameter P17 ("OFF"). On the other hand, additional times are possible through the operation as additional master. On completion of the individual defrost operations triggered by limit probe or time, all synchronised devices wait until all thermometers have received their synchronous signal from the bus before starting cooling.
