The Emotron DCM always stops the pump as soon as it starts to snore (draw air) and restarts it after a calculated pause time or in response to a high-level switch-over. The Emotron DCM is able to check: • Phase sequence.
Table 1, on page13 and Table 2, on page15 in this manual. Connection and setup before start 1. Connect the Emotron DCM according to Chapters 5 and 6 and Fig. 13 (alternatively, for dual-pumps, Chapter 7 and Fig. 15 and 16).

Fig. 1 Pump operation If the Emotron DCM has been used previously, some parameters may have been changed. In such a case, go to Chapter 6 and perform a complete setup for single-pump system installation (alternatively, Chapter 7 for dual-pump system installation).
1. Check that the amount of water is sufficient for pumping about 30 seconds without snoring. 2. Switch on the supply voltage to the Emotron DCM and set any pump system control equipment to the on position, “1” or Auto. The pump should now be pumping water without snoring.
“SEt” is shown on the display. The stop level is now set, thus stopping the pump when snoring. The stop function is now initiated and the Emotron DCM controls the pump. Adjustments can be made according to Section 6.2, page 30. See also Sections 6.3 and 6.4.

Place both pumps in the pit and switch the power on. Both pumps will start running now . Set the Emotron MASTER DCM window 71 to 2, see Table 8. Set the Emotron SLAVE DCM window 71 to 3. Continue from here with the Quick Setup for Single Pump on the MASTER, see Fig.
Before installing, make sure that no voltage is applied to the equipment and that the voltage rating of the Emotron DCM, as shown on the rating plate on the side of the unit, corresponds to the motor/line voltage.

NOTE: The current transformer must be linked to the phase connected to terminal 9 (L1). In order to ensure accurate calibration of the Emotron DCM, it is essential that you use the correct CTM (and, additionally, a standard current transformer) and apply the exact number of wirings in accordance with the tables above.

NOTE: Some useful hints and examples are given in Chapter 6, page 27, Single-Pump System Installation. NOTE: The dual-pump DCM system must not be installed in a pit of extremely small diameter or width. This will result from time to time in the DCMs failing to detect the stop/minimum level.

Connect terminal 3 (DIG) on the DCM MASTER to terminal 3 (DIG) on the DCM SLAVE. Connect terminal 4 (SGND) on the DCM MASTER to ter- minal 4 (SGND) on the DCM SLAVE. See Fig. 16 and Table 8, page 53, win- dow 53.
1. In window 71 set the required function: dual-pump control MASTER (2) for one of the DCMs and for the other DCM dual-pump control SLAVE (3). The DCM MASTER must be the DCM that is wired for MASTER, see Fig. 16, page 34.

17. Change the level setting in window 21 on the MASTER DCM between 1 - 10 for shorter or longer pump cycles and level in the pit. A low value gives shorter pump cycles and lower level in the pit, see Fig. 11, page 23 and 14, page 32.
Table 6, page 41. Alarm in a dual-pump application The fault code is shown in window 00 of the respective DCM, the alarm relay is only set on terminal 6 of the DCM SLAVE when an error occurs. If a latched alarm occurs it must be reset on the respective DCM by pressing the button or, if specified as digital input, by an external reset.
