60204-1. Installation errors can damage the electronics or cause malfunctions. The C-TOP S contains electrostatically sensitive components. Electrostatic discharge caused by improper handling or incorrect earthing can damage the internal electronics. Disconnect the PLC power supply before handling the control head, as it is part of the PLC input/output system. - Page 7 Do not touch the inside of the control head when it is in operation. All the electrical work should be carried out by specialised personnel. The C-TOP S contains electrostatically sensitive components. Electrostatic discharge caused by improper handling or incorrect earthing can damage the internal electronics.

Page 14: Setup
The control head leaves the factory without configuration. Perform a previous setting that consists of memorizing different positions of the shaft of the valve actuator is needed to be able to use it. Once it is installed and is switched on for the first time, the C-TOP S flashes with a white and pink light to indicate that it has not any position memorized. The control head C-TOP S has two setting modes: - manualtune for control heads without solenoid valves and double effect actuators, or for situ- ations where you want to activate more than one solenoid valve simultaneously, - autotune for all other cases. -

3. The control head’s light is closed during the change of the solenoid valve. 4. To indicate the end of the test mode the control head will be illuminated by a white flashing light for 2 seconds. During the performance of the test mode, you can pass from checking one solenoid valve to another by doing a short or long press on the “I” button. Do a short or long press on the “II” button to cancel the test mode. INOXPA S.A.U. 10.426.30.03EN · (A) 2025/05... -

The control head is illuminated by different colours to inform the status of the valve and the control head. There are some default colours and other ones that be chosen to configure the different positions of the valve. The default colours to operate the C-TOP S are: - White: to get in and out of the different operating modes. If no change has occurred at the exit of the setting mode, the light of the control head will be flashing. Instead, if any changes have occurred, the light of the control head will be continuous. -

Once the module positions have been programmed, an IO-Link protocol interface can be used to choose whether two solenoid valves can be activated at the same time. To check the parameters for this device, see document 10.426.30.09EN (IO-Link Interface Description). A software file (IODD) from the INOXPA website (https://www.inoxpa.com/downloads/documents/ valves-and-fittings/valve-automation) is required and must be uploaded to the control unit before its start-up and configuration. Which software is needed will depend on how many solenoid valves the ... -

- press the “I” button for a short time (for 100 ms < t < 2 s) to activate solenoid valve 1. - press the “II” button for a short time (for 100 ms < t < 2 s) to activate solenoid valve 2. - press the “I” and “II” buttons simultaneously for a short time (for 100 ms < t < 2 s) to activate solenoid valve 3. Every time a solenoid valve activates, its position should be recorded by pressing and holding the “I” button (for 2 - 5 s). A light will flash quickly while pressing and a steady light will indicate when the valve position recording is complete. 3. Press and hold the “II” button for a long time (2 - 5 s) to exit the manualtune programming mode. INOXPA S.A.U. 10.426.30.03EN · (A) 2025/05... -
