NEXUS P20 "ALARM PRESENT" ICON Led OFF = No alarm present. Led ON = Alarm triggered and then reset. Flashing LED = Alarm present. REMOTE CONSOLE KEY COMBINATION (OPTIONAL) 5.4.2 EXIT PROGRAMMING If pressed simultaneously for more than 3 seconds inside any programming menu, they save the settings made by exiting the menu itself.
NEXUS P20 QUICK VIEW MENU (READ ONLY) If pressed simultaneously for more than 3 seconds, they allow access to the quick display menu. When entering the menu, a confirmation BEEP is generated. Within this menu, the up and down arrows allow you to scroll through the various parameters.
NEXUS P20 FIRST LEVEL PROGRAMMING (Installer level) Via the myPego app: 1. Open the myPego app and connect to the instrument called "NEXUSP20" via Bluetooth or via cloud. 2. Touch the "Parameters" button in the bottom toolbar. 3. Consult / modify the parameters of the desired level.

NEXUS P20 PAR. MEANING VALUES DEFAULT 1 = (tS4) Probe visualization (S4) Suction temperature. 2 = (tS5) Probe display (S5) Evaporation temperature. Visualization on the main display 3 = (PS5) Probe display (S5) Evaporation pressure. 4 = (tSH) Superheating temperature display.
Page 27
NEXUS P20 PAR. MEANING VALUES DEFAULT Via the myPego app: Send the value "291" to restore the default parameters. Setting the default parameters With remote console: Position on the dEF parameter and press all the keys for 10 seconds to restore the default parameters.
Page 29
NEXUS P20 PAR. MEANING VALUES DEFAULT LSH threshold (low superheat temperature). Superheat values that are too low can cause return of the liquid to the compressor, or extreme oscillations. 0,0 ÷ Set SH °C 2,0 °C Below the LSH threshold, the ELS protection forces the PID control to close the valve more quickly and bring the value back up to the superheat setpoint.
Page 30
NEXUS P20 PAR. MEANING VALUES DEFAULT threshold (minimum saturated evaporation temperature in relation to the S5 sensor) This represents the minimum saturated evaporation pressure below which the LOP protection is activated. When LOP -45°C ÷ (MOP-1) -45°C protection is enabled, the control opens to prevent the compressor from stopping due to low pressure (mechanical pressure switch).
NEXUS P20 Valve management (EEV parameter) 5.9.1 Setting the EEV parameter from 1 to 5 loads the default values in the ESH, EPb, EtI, Etd, LSH, ELS, MOP, EMO, LOP, ELO parameters. In this case the controller acts as a superheat regulator, based on the value read by the connected pressure/temperature probes.
NEXUS P20 QUICK VIEW MENU (READ-ONLY) 5.10 During the start-up of the system it may be useful to simply check the reading of the various probes or of some values to verify or optimize the process. To access these values: Via the myPego app: 1.
EXPORT / IMPORT PARAMETERS 5.15 It’s possible to export / import the parameters set in the NEXUS P20 via the USB port on the board. To do this you need the optional remote display. 1) Insert the USB memory into the slot on the board.
NEXUS P20 CHAPTER 6: OPTIONS TELENET MONITORING/SUPERVISION SYSTEM To connect the electrical panel to a TeleNET network, follow the diagram below. Refer to the TeleNET user manual for instrument configuration. IMPORTANT: During the configuration, under "Module" select "PEV-PULSE Instrument". NETWORK CONFIGURATION WITH MODBUS-RTU PROTOCOL Connect the board to a RS485 network with Modbus-RTU protocol with reference to the diagram below.
