Page 22
USER INSTRUCTIONS PWM PROPORTIONAL-INTEGRAL The PWM control algorithm, used to control the temperature adjustment system, allows you to drastically reduce the times subject to thermal inertia and introduced by the two- point control. This type of control involves the modulation of the impulse duty-cycle, represented by the temperature adjustment system activation time, on the basis of the difference between the fixed setpoint and the temperature effectively detected.
Page 23
USER INSTRUCTIONS The device keeps the temperature adjustment system switched on for a cycle time percentage that depends on the output function of the proportional-integral control; the device continually adjusts the system, modulating the system ON-OFF times with a duty- cycle that depends on the value of the output function (calculated at each time gap equal to the cycle time).

USER INSTRUCTIONS function: the proportional component and the integral component, used to improve the response in order to reach the temperature at the fixed setpoint. Once the proportional band has been defined (from setpoint to setpoint - for heating mode, from setpoint to setpoint for cooling mode), its width determines the extent of the system response: if it is too narrow, the system will be more reactive but with swings;...

USER INSTRUCTIONS FAN COIL WITH ON-OFF SPEED CONTROL The operating principle involves activating/deactivating the fan coil speeds on the basis of the difference between the fixed setpoint and the detected temperature, using independent 1-bit communication objects to manage the individual speeds. The figures below refer to the control of the speeds of a fan coil with three operating stages for heating and cooling.

USER INSTRUCTIONS FAN COIL WITH CONTINUOUS SPEED CONTROL The operating principle is similar to that of the fan coil with ON-OFF speed control, but with the difference that there are no independent communication objects for managing the individual speeds - just one 1-byte object. The figures below refer to the control of the speeds of a fan coil with three operating stages for heating and cooling.

USER INSTRUCTIONS Setting the valve adjustment differential Use the button keys to set the value of the adjustment differential of the fan coil valve control algorithm (the gap can be set from 0.1°C to 2.0°C). If the control logic is common, the parameter remains the same in both heating and cooling mode.

USER INSTRUCTIONS Setting the inertia for speed 3 Use the button key to set the value of the inertia time for fan coil speed 3 (the gap can be set from 0 to 10 seconds). This parameter is visible if the fan coil speed number is 3.

USER INSTRUCTIONS F.A.Q. What does the temperature value on the display actually represent? If no external temperature probe is enabled during ETS programming, the value shown on the display is the temperature detected by the sensor in the thermostat. If, however, an external temperature probe (of the KNX or NTC type) has been enabled, the thermostat shows the average of the values detected by the probe and the sensor, using a variable weight between 10% and 100% (which can be defined via ETS).
Page 34
USER INSTRUCTIONS What happens to the time band set on the thermostat if the BUS power supply fails and is reset? The thermostat has no buffer battery, so the time setting is lost if there is a BUS voltage failure. The time can be reset manually, or automatically via the BUS (defined via ETS) from a KNX device (timed thermostat, weather station, Master, Internet Gateway, etc.).
