Instruction book Warning: A number of time based automatic start/stop commands may be programmed. Take into account that a start command will be executed (if programmed and activated), even after manually stopping the unit. Protecting the unit Shutdown If the outlet element temperature exceeds the programmed shutdown level, the unit will be stopped. This will be indicated on the display of the controller.

Instruction book Automatic restart after voltage failure (ARAVF) The machine is designed to not lead to hazardous situations after a power voltage failure (according to safety standards). However, if required, the ARAVF function can be activated in the Smartphone App (see section Connectivity-Smartphone App). This function, when enabled, will automatically restart the unit when the voltage is restored after voltage failure.
Instruction book Control panel Figure 3: Control panel Reference Designation Function Shows the unit operating condition and a number of Display icons to navigate through the menu. Flashes in case of a shutdown, Warning sign is lit in case of a warning condition.

Instruction book Service warning A service warning will appear when the service timer has reached the programmed time interval. If the service timer exceeds the programmed time interval, alarm LED (3) will light up. • Stop the unit, switch off the voltage and carry out the required service actions. See section Preventive Maintenance.
Instruction book Remote control The unit can be commanded via external switches, this function is always activated. The unit can be commanded to start/stop via digital inputs. Note: Have the modifications checked by your supplier. Stop the unit and switch off the voltage before connecting external equipment.
Instruction book Scrolling through screens Scroll buttons (6-8) can be used to scroll through all screens. For most screens, the unit of measurement and the related pictograph are shown together with the screen number. Example: The screen shows the screen number P.SEt, the unit used bar and the related symbol for pressure unit.

Instruction book Connectivity-Smartphone App The controller has been designed as a standalone Internet of Things (IoT) solution. As such it includes integrated connectivity, which allows you to monitor and control your unit by using just your smartphone. To enable this you just need the ICONS application and an internet connection for your unit. Download the ICONS application from the Play Store and App Store to get the full functionality of the unit.

Instruction book OTA firmware update Over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates are remote updates that do not require a direct connection to the unit. These are only possible if the controller of the machine is connected to the internet, so make sure to connect your machine to be able to use this feature. The benefits of this feature are to keep a product updated with the latest software to ensure optimal functionality, add the ability to receive new firmware to support additional features.
