Operating Modes

Manual operation
In manual mode, the ventilation level is defined by means of the level button, see section „Display and Operation" on
page 4.

Automatic operation

The automatic operation of the device is enabled once a sensor signal is detected at the input AI.
Automatic operation must be activated with the level button, see section „Display and Operation" on page 4.
IP08 defines a reset time after which the unit returns to automatic mode if it has been manually overridden. With a reset
time setting of 0, automatic reset is deactivated.
Level mode (IP00=ON)
During AUTO operation, the levels are switched by a control signal. The switching levels are defined under IP04 – IP06.
The hysteresis defined with IP07 prevents rapid switching of levels in auto mode.
Function: A level activates once the input signal exceeds the activation limit (IP04-IP06). It deactivates once the input
signal drops below the activation limit minus the hysteresis. For example, with a hysteresis of 10% and an activation limit
of 40%, the level activates with a 40% input signal and switches down to the next lower level with a 30% input signal.
Automatic switching for certain levels may be disabled by setting an activation limit of 0. The sensor signal will then not
be able to activate this particular level. This may proof useful for the highest level (boost mode) by setting IP06 = 0.

Continuous mode (IP00=OFF)
During AUTO operation, the ventilation is controlled gradually by the sensor signal. Instead of level steps, the output
voltage is adjusted continuously. The sensor minimum and sensor maximum of the linear range can be set with IP04 and
IP06. The output voltage then behaves linearly between OP00 and OP03.
