1 - MONITORING AND REGULATION 1.1 Controller Each air heater is managed by the controller. In addition to its control functions, it also monitors and detects any faults with the air handling unit. IMPORTANT: To avoid any problems, the password must be known only by qualified personnel. 1.2 The pLDPRO terminal The terminal is supplied equipped with an LCD screen (8 lines x 22 characters) with six control keys.
1.3 The controller The descriptions of the terminals on the controller are provided below. RJ11 connector for the pLDPRO J1 - power supply configuration terminal (pLAN) 230 V controller supply RX-/TX- 3-point connector to connect up +Vdc RX+/TX+ other units (pLAN) Passive sensors power supply J2 - probe supply +5 Vref...
2 - CONFIGURING THE CONTROLLER The controller and display must be configured before the unit is commissioned. 2.1 Configuring with master EC Mono Boxes only: The value of the display's factory-set address is '32'. It is pointless to only change it in the master EC Mono Box. If the nn field is set to '0', the terminal will use the Point-to-Point Protocol (not the pLAN) to communicate with the controller and the “I/O Board address: xx”...
2.2 Configuring with slave EC Mono Boxes only: To configure the various slaves, the pLDPRO terminal must be removed from the master unit and connected to the slave units. a) For the first slave: ● Power up the Slave EC Mono Box ●...

The Slave EC Box/display connection no. 1 has been made, if there are other slave boxes to be configured, repeat point d) by increasing the I/O Board address by 1 each time (e.g. for the 2nd slave: I/O Board address 3; for the 3rd slave: I/O Board address 4, etc.).
3.2 Addressing the pLAN There is a range of 32 possible addresses (binary logic). As a result, a total of 32 controllers and terminals can be connected over the pLAN network. The pLAN network will not work if the same address is shared by two components! pLDPRO display Address: 32...

4.7 Time schedule The time must be set for the time schedule to work correctly. The user will choose an operating mode in the operating mode parameter. When there is a time schedule active according to the periods below, the regulation will deviate from the current mode and switch into the mode selected by the time schedule.
4.9 Test mode menu Overriding the outputs Unit off If all the controller's outputs are overridden, the alarms will not be signalled on the display. Disconnecting the display will maintain the override and may result in damage to the hardware. This menu can only be accessed in level 3 and with the unit off.
