    6 Operation Status The menu item makes it possible to look through all the active functions, temperatures at the sensors, relay states, operating times of the devices and alarm history/messages. Hot water (HW) 6.3.1 Domestic hot water nominal temperature This menu item makes it possible to regulate the domestic hot water temperature to the value that has been set.
  • Page 15: Dynamic Domestic Hot Water Control

    6 Operation The nominal temperature for the comfort function (T-Comf.ON) can not be set freely, but is calculated dynamically. T-Comf.ON, min = 1 K T-Comf.ON, max = 10 K T-Comf.ON = dynamic = T-HW-Soll - T-Comf.ON Default setting = 7 K Due to the comfort nominal temperature (T-FL, S1) depending on the current hot water temperature (T-HW-Soll, VFS) a conflict in the function "Dynamic T-HW control"...
  • Page 16: Blocking Protection

    6 Operation 6.3.4 Blocking protection Upon activation of this function, the controller checks for the time of the last activity of the actuators (stratification, switch valve, pumps). If no actuator had been active in the last 24 hours, all of them are actuated one after another for the parameter "Blocking protection". Default setting = off Functions NOTICE...
  • Page 17 6 Operation Example: It is possible to balance the circulation again anytime. NOTICE During the cascade operation mode, the circulation pump is connected to the master. During the adjusting process, only the station of the master controller is connected (cascade valve master = on). The cascade valves of the slaves are closed.
  • Page 18 6 Operation Operating mode circulation: Temperature controlled The T-CW sensor (cold water sensor) is defined as the temperature sensor for the temperature controlled circulation function. If the temperature measured at the cold water sensor is smaller than the switch-on threshold, the circulation pump is switched on. If the temperature measured at the cold water sensor greater than the switch-off threshold, the circulation pump is switched off.
  • Page 19 6 Operation Operating mode circulation: Time controlled If the controller detects a withdrawal (in cascade operating mode: overall tapping) with a duration of less than 5 s (tap impulse), the circulation pump is switched on for the set duration. After the switch-on duration has elapsed, the circulation pump is switched off for the time of the delay.
  • Page 20: Stratification

    6 Operation NOTICE The following modes can be combined: Time control + temperature control: The temperature control is only active during  a certain time window. Demand + Temperature control: The circulation is switched on on demand.  The circulation is switched off when the switch-off temperature is exceeded or the operation time has elapsed.
  • Page 21 6 Operation The return is fed into the upper or the lower part of the storage tank, depending on the position of the valve. There are two modes for this function: Thermostat mode: Using the T-CW sensor in the station. •...
  • Page 22: Thermal Disinfection

    6 Operation NOTICE When the mode "temperature difference" is activated, the controller uses the sensor input "S3" to determine the storage tank temperature. The three-way valve has to be installed in such a way that in a currentless state the flow direction is switched towards the colder part of the storage tank.
  • Page 23 6 Operation The thermal disinfection can be switched-on with a weekly timer or started manually. Unlike the weekly timer, the thermal disinfection can only be set for one time window per day. The length of the time window is adjustable. For safety reasons the thermal disinfection is automatically deactivated after one hour runtime when it was started manually.
  • Page 24: Alarm Relay

    6 Operation Definition of the message "Thermal disinfection completed successfully": The temperature of the return is higher than the parameterised disinfection temperature for a certain time. Example: T-CW > 60 °C; 10 min As soon as the temperature falls below the threshold, the time span is displayed in minutes. If the disinfection does not complete successfully within the time window, a corresponding "nlO"-message is saved.
  • Page 25: Parallel Relay

    6 Operation - Function "thermal disinfection" not completed successfully (nIO)(activatable) The alarm output remains switched on as long as the controller display shows the error message. The alarm output can be selected as a "normally open contact" or a "break contact". The function can be activated or deactivated (default setting = OFF, because a relay must be selected).
