Operation Operation The controller is ready for use with the default temperatures and operating schedules. On start-up, the current time and date need to be set at the controller (–> section 1.5). Operating controls The operating controls are located in the front panel of the controller. 1.1.1 Rotary pushbutton Rotary pushbutton –...
Operation Operating modes Day mode (rated operation) : Regardless of the programmed times-of-use and summer mode, the set points relevant for rated operation are used by the controller. Night mode (reduced operation) : Regardless of the programmed times-of-use, the set points relevant for reduced operation are used by the controller. Stand-by mode : Regardless of the programmed times-of-use, control operation is deactivated.
Operation Display The display indicates the time as well as information about the operation of the control- ler when the rotary switch is at the normal position (information level). The times-of-use together with temperatures of the various control circuits can be viewed on the display by turning the rotary pushbutton. The times-of-use are represented by black squares below the row of numbers at the top of the display.
Operation The controller status can be displayed in the information level (–> section 1.4). Opening the information level At the normal switch position (information level), the time, date, public holidays and vacation periods as well as the temperatures measured by the connected sensors and their set points can be retrieved and displayed.
Operation Setting the controller time The current time and date need to be set immediately after start-up and after a power failure of more than 24 hours has occurred. This is the case when the time blinks on the display. Proceed as follows: Turn the rotary switch to (controller...
Operation Setting the times-of-use Three times-of-use can be set for each day of the week. Parameters Range of values Period/day 1–7 1–7, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 with 1–7 = every day, 1 = Monday, 2 = Tuesday, ..., 7 = Sunday Start first time-of-use 6:00 0:00 to 24:00h;...
Operation Confirm start time [ ]. Display: STOP Edit stop time []. (in steps of 15 minutes) Confirm stop time [ ]. Display: START The indicated time corresponds to the stop time for the first time-of-use plus 15 minutes. To set the second and third times-of-use, repeat steps 5 to 7.

Start-up Calibrating sensors The controller is designed for the connection of Pt 1000 sensors. The resistance values of the Pt 1000 sensors can be found on page 75. If the temperature values displayed at the controller differ from the actual temperatures, the measured values of all connected sensors can be readjusted.
Start-up Additional sensors are calibrated similarly. 12. Select End []. 13. Return the rotary switch to normal switch position (information level). Resetting to default values All parameters set over the rotary switch as well as parameters in PA1, PA2 and PA5 pa- rameter levels can be reset to their default settings (WE), except for the maximum flow temperature and the return flow temperature limits in PA1 and PA2.

Functions of the heating circuit Functions of the heating circuit Weather-compensated control When weather-compensated control is used, the flow temperature is controlled accord- ing to the outdoor temperature. The heating characteristic in the controller defines the flow temperature set point as a function of the outdoor temperature (–>...
Functions of the heating circuit 5.1.1 Gradient characteristic Basically, the following rule applies: a decrease in the outdoor temperature causes the flow temperature to increase in order to keep the room temperature constant. By varying the parameters Gradient and Level, you can adapt the characteristic to your individual requirements: [°C The gradient needs to be increased if the room tem-...
Page 31
Functions of the heating circuit Outside the times-of-use, reduced set points are used for control: The reduced flow set point is calculated as the difference between the adjusted values for Day set point (rated room temperature) and Night set point (reduced room tempera- ture).
Functions of the heating circuit 5.1.2 Four-point characteristic The four-point characteristic allows you to define your own heating characteristic. It is de- fined by four points for the outdoor temperature, flow temperature, reduced flow temperature and return flow temperature. The 'Max. flow temperature' and 'Min. flow temperature' pa- rameters mark the upper and lower limits of the flow temperature.

Functions of the heating circuit STOP on the display indicates that there has been a deviation of flow temperature of more than 5 °C for longer than 30 minutes. The function is canceled by the controller in such cases. While STOP appears on the display, the controller keeps the flow tempera- ture constant at 25 °C.
Functions of the heating circuit 5.4.2 OT deactivation value in reduced operation If the outdoor temperature exceeds the limit value OT deactivation value in reduced oper- ation in reduced operation, the affected heating circuit is put out of service immediately. The valve is closed and the pump is switched off after t = 2 x valve transit time.

Functions of the heating circuit Optimization This function requires the use of a room sensor. Depending on the building characteris- tics, the controller determines and adapts the required advance heating time (maximum 8 hours) to ensure that the desired Day set point (rated room temperature) has been reached in the reference room when the time-of- use starts.
Functions of the heating circuit Flash adaptation To ensure that the controller reacts immediately to room temperature deviations during rated or reduced operation, the function block setting CO1, 2 -> F09 - 1 needs to be made. The heating is then always switched off as soon as the room temperature exceeds Day set point or Night set point by 2 °C.

Functions of the heating circuit Note: If the Flash adaptation function is already configured with a small cycle time, Adaptation function should not be configured as well. Cooling control Cooling control with outdoor sensor When the cooling control function is activated in a control circuit, the four-point charac- teristic of the corresponding control circuit is automatically activated and the operating direction of the control output is reversed.

Operational faults Return flow temperature limitation The temperature difference between the flow and return flow indicates how well the en- ergy is used: the greater the difference, the higher the efficiency. A return flow sensor is sufficient to evaluate the temperature difference when the flow temperatures are pre- set.

Electrical connection Three-step control The flow temperature can be controlled using a PI algorithm. The valve reacts to pulses that the controller sends when a system deviation occurs. The length of the first pulse, in particular, depends on the extent of the system deviation and the selected Proportional gain K (the pulse length increases as K increases).
