CALIBRATION/SELF-TEST

The calibration values are determined after installation during the selftest and during the calibration and stored on the SD card and the PCB. On-site calibration is necessary when replacing:
Pressure sensor P1, B4 thermocouple humidity, fan wheel, micro SD card and PCB together, use of different hinging racks, installation of new air baffle, installation of hoods or Combi-Duo, customer complaints with uneven cooking results, subsequent relocation.
A self-test is necessary for new installations.
Start conditions:
Cooking cabinet sensor B1, control sensor B2, humidity sensor B4: < 40°C. In order to achieve the best possible calibration values, a closed GN container should be inserted 20 mm deep with the open side down in the middle in front of each fan wheel.
After a successful self-test, a flue gas analysis must be carried out for gas units!

Calibration errors

Calibration errors either occur during the self-test or a manual calibration. The error number refers to the calibration step in which the error occurred.
The most common calibration errors are:

  • Step 0 error start conditions:
    • B1, B2 or B4 over 40°C
    • Filling cleaner box with water taking too long, problem with solenoid valve block or control solenoid
  • 20: Differential pressure sensor faulty, loose cables n 100: Fan motor speed detection faulty
  • 200: Steam heating does not work, (check voltage, SSR, plug X20, gas supply, energy optimisation)

Code 4 4x flashes Input voltage too high
Code 5 5x flashes Input voltage too low
Code 6 6x flashes Mains frequency outside the tolerance
Code 7 7x flashes Self-test A10 failed

3 green diagnostic LED on the front side A10: see training manual

eSTB A15/A16: DIAGNOSTIC LED (3 LEDS A, B, C)

The green LED B flashes 16 times:

Flashing with 2 of 16 signals Input voltage short circuit
Flashing with 13 of 16 signals Mains frequency not in the target range 45 – 65 Hz
Flashing with 14 of 16 signals Input voltage below expected level of 140 V
Flashing with 15 of 16 signals Input voltage above the expected level of 278 V
Flashing with 16 of 16 signals The reset button was pressed too long during normal eSTL operation > Attempt reset again
Flashing with 3 – 12 of signals Internal eSTL error > Replace eSTL info: a reset is recommended.,

Further details: See training manual

After solving the problem: Reset eSTL, press the reset button for three seconds.
Blink codes flash more than 8 times: This is most often due to the power supply to the unit (e.g. connection to generator)
