Controller for appliance control

AK-CC 550A
ADAP-KOOL® Refrigeration control systems

Introduction
Application
Complete refrigeration appliance control with great flexibility to
adapt to all types of refrigeration appliances and cold storage
rooms.
Advantages
• Energy optimization of the whole refrigeration appliance
• One controller for several different refrigeration appliances
• Integrated display at the front of the controller
• Quick set-up with predefined settings
• Built-in data communication
• Built-in clock function with power reserve
Principle
The temperature in the appliance is registered by one or two
temperature sensors which are located in the air flow before the
evaporator (S3) or after the evaporator (S4) respectively. A setting
for thermostat, alarm thermostat and display reading determines
the influence the two sensor values should have for each indi-
vidual function.
In addition product sensor S6, which can be optionally placed in
the appliance, can be used to register the temperature near the
required product in a certain place within the appliance.
The temperature of the evaporator is registered with the S5 sensor
which can be used as a defrosting sensor.
In addition to the outlet to the electronic injection valve of the
type AKV, the controller has 5 relay outputs which are defined by
the use selected – the individual usage options are described in
detail on page 12.

Applications
Here is an overview of the controller’s usage options.
A setting will configure input and outputs so that the controller’s
operation interface is directed at the selected application.
The current settings for the respective uses can be found on page
28.
Application 1-8
These uses are applied to standard appliances or cold storage
rooms with one valve, one evaporator and one refrigeration sec-
tion.
The sensors are used according to standard principles.
The output functions change depending on the selected applica-
tion.
Application 9
This use is for refrigeration appliances with one valve, two evapo-
rators and two refrigeration sections.
Here the temperature and alarm monitoring are always controlled
using the S4 sensor.
The S3 sensor is used for display readings.
The product sensor is replaced by an extra defrosting sensor S5B
for the second evaporator.
Application 10
This use is for refrigeration appliances with one valve, one evapo-
rator and two refrigeration sections.
Here temperature is always controlled using the S4 temperature.
The two S3 temperatures are used for alarm monitoring and

display readings for each refrigeration section. There are common
alarm limits for the two refrigeration section.

Operation
Liquid injection
Liquid injection in the evaporator is controlled by an electronic
injection valve of the type AKV. The valve functions as both expan-
sion valve and solenoid valve. The valve opens and closes using
signals from the controller.
The function contains an adaptive algorithm which independently
adjusts the valve’s opening so that the evaporator constantly sup-
plies optimum refrigeration.
Superheat can be measured via:

• Pressure sensor P0 and temperature sensor S2
For this use a correct measurement of superheat is achieved
under all conditions which ensures a very robust and precise
control.
The signal from one pressure transmitter can be used by several
controllers, but only if there is no significant pressure difference
between the evaporators in question.
Temperature control
The temperature in the appliance is registered by one or two
temperature sensors which are located in the air flow before the
evaporator (S3) or after the evaporator (S4) respectively. A setting
for the thermostat, alarm thermostat and display reading deter-
mines how much the two sensor values should influence each
individual function, e.g. 50% will produce an equal value from
both sensors.
The actual temperature control can take place in two ways: as an

ordinary ON/OFF regulation with a differential, or as a modulat-
ing control there the temperature variation will not be nearly as
great as in ON/OFF control. There is however a limit to the use of
a modulating control as it can only be used in central plant. In a
decentralised plant the thermostat function with ON/OFF control
should be selected.
In a central plant the thermostat function may either be selected
for ON/OFF control or modulating control.
Temperature monitoring
Just as is possible for the thermostat, the alarm monitoring can be
set with a weighting between S3 and S4 so that you can decide
how much the two sensor values should influence the alarm
monitoring. Minimum and maximum limits can be set for alarm
temperature and time delays. A longer time delay can be set for
high temperature alarm. This time delay is active after defrosting,
appliance cleaning and start-up.

Thermostat bands
Thermostat bands can be used beneficially for appliances where
different product types are stored which require different tem-
perature conditions. It is possible to change between the two
different thermostat bands via a contact signal on a digital input.
Separate thermostat and alarm limits can be set for each thermo-
stat band – also for the product sensor.
Night setback of thermostat value

In refrigeration appliances there may be big load differences
between the shop’s opening and closing hours, especially if night
lids/blinds are used. The thermostat reference may be raised here
without it having any effect on the product temperature.
Change-over between day and night operation can take place, as
follows:
• via an external switch signal.
• via a signal from the data communication system.
Product sensor
A separate optional product sensor S6, which may be placed
in the appliance, can also be used and which can register and
monitor the temperature in the warmest part of the appliance.
There are separate alarm limits and time delays for the product
sensor.
Appliance cleaning
This function makes it easy for the shop’s staff to carry out a
cleaning of the appliance according to a standard procedure.
Appliance cleaning is activated via a signal – as a rule via a key
switch placed on the appliance.
Appliance cleaning is carried out via three phases:
1 - at the first activation the refrigeration is stopped, but the fans
keep on operating in order to defrost the evaporators. ”Fan” is - + + °C
shown on the display. 1 ÷ + Fan
2 - at the second activation the fans are also stopped and the
appliance can now be cleaned. ”OFF” is shown on the display. 2 ÷ ÷ Off
3 - At the third activation refrigeration is recommenced. The 3 + + °C
display will show the actual appliance temperature, (o97
setting).
When appliance cleaning is activated a cleaning alarm is trans-

mitted to the normal alarm recipient. A later processing of these
alarms will document that the appliance has been cleaned as
often as planned.
Alarm monitoring
There are no temperature alarms during appliance cleaning.
Appliance shut-down
The function closes the AKV valve and all outputs are switched off.
The cooling appliance is stopped like the “Main switch”, but this
happens without an “A45 standby alarm”.
The function can be enabled by a switch on the DI input or via a
setting through data communication.

Defrost
Depending on the application you may choose between the fol-
lowing defrost methods:
Natural: Here the fans are kept operating during the defrost
Electric: The heating element is activated
Hotgas: Here the solenoid valves are controlled so that the
hotgas can flow through the evaporator
Defrost sequence
1) Pump down
2) Defrost
3) Waiting position after defrost
4) Draining (drain delay. Hotgas only)
5) Drip off
6) Delay of fan
Hot gas defrost (application 6 only)

This type of connection can be used on systems with hotgas
defrost, but only in small systems in, say, supermarkets – the
functional content has not been adapted to systems with large
charges.
Relay 2 is used for the suction valve
Relay 4’s change-over function is used by the bypass valve and hot
gas valve, respectively.
If the valves PMLX and GPLX are used, the delay time “d23” will
have to be properly set. Hot gas application
During hot gas defrosting, it is not possible to start a manual
defrosting cycle with the “DI” functions or with a touch on the
controller’s lower button.
Drip tray heating element

It is possible to control a heating element in the drip tray for
hot gas defrosting. When defrosting is commenced, the heating
element is activated. The heating element remains activated until
a set time after defrosting has ended by time or temperature.
Start of defrost
A defrost can be started in different ways
Interval: Defrost is started at fixed time intervals, say, every
eighth hour. An interval must ALWAYS be set to
a "higher" value than the period set between two
defrostings when a schedule or network signal is used.
Refrigeration time: Defrost is started at fixed refrigeration time
intervals, in other words, a low need for refrigeration will
”postpone” the defrost
Schedule: Here defrost can be started at fixed times of the Stop of defrost
day and night. However, max. 6 times Defrosting can be stopped by either:
Contact: Defrost is started with a contact signal on a digital input • Time
Network: The signal for defrost is received from a system unit • Temperature (with time as safety).

registering of evaporator performance. Compressor

or via a parameter setting.
All the mentioned methods can be used at random – if just of
them is activated a defrost will be started.

Coordinated defrost
There are two ways in which coordinated defrost can be arranged. Max. 10
Either with wire connections between the controllers or via data
communication
Wire connections
The digital input DI2 is connected between the current controllers.
When one controller starts a defrost all the other controllers will
follow suit and likewise start a defrost. After the defrost the indi-
vidual controllers will move into waiting position. When all are in System manager
waiting position there will be a change-over to refrigeration.
Coordination via data communication

Here the system unit handles the coordination.
The controllers are gathered in defrosting groups and the system
unit ensures that defrosting is started in the group according to a
weekly schedule.
When a controller has completed defrosting, it sends a message
to the system unit and then goes into a waiting position. When
every controller in the group is in a waiting position, refrigeration
is again permitted in all the individual controllers.

period than the set melting interval. The refrigeration will then be
stopped during the set melting period. The frost will be melted
so that the air flow and hence the evaporator’s capacity will be
greatly improved.

Control of two compressors (application 5)
The two compressors must be of the same size. When the control-
ler demands refrigeration it will first cut in the compressor with
the shortest operating time. After the time delay the second
compressor will be cut in.
When the temperature has dropped to ”the middle of the differen-

tial”, the compressor with the longest operation time will be cut
out.
The running compressor will continue until the temperature has
reached the cutout value. Then it will cut out. When the tempera-
ture again reaches the middle of the differential, a compressor will
again be started.
If one compressor cannot maintain the temperature within the
differential, the second compressor will also be started.
If one of the compressors has run on its own for two hours, the
compressors will be changed over so that operational time is bal-
anced.
The two compressors must be of a type that can start up against a

high pressure.
The compressors’s settings for ”Min On time” and ”Min Off time”
will always have top priority during normal regulation. But if one
of the override functions is activated, the ”Min On time” will be
disregarded.
Railheat
It is possible to pulse-control the power to the rail heat in order to
save energy. Pulse control can either be controlled according to
day/night load or dew point.
Pulse control according to day and night

Various ON periods can be set for day and night operation.
A period time is set as well as the percentage part of the period in
which the rail heat is ON.
Rail heat
Pulse control according to dew point

In order to use this function a system manager of the type AK-SM
is required which can measure dew point and distribute the cur-
rent dew point to the appliance controllers. For this the rail heat’s
ON period is controlled from the current dew point.
Two dew point values are set in the appliance control:
• One where the effect must be max. i.e.100%. (o87)
• One where the effect must be min. (o86).
At a dew point which is equal to or lower than the value in 086,
the effect will be the value indicated in o88.
In the area between the two dew point values the controller will
manage the power to be supplied to the rail heat.
Dew point
During defrosting
During defrosting rail heat will be active, as selected in setting
d27.

Fan
Pulse control
To obtain energy savings it is possible to pulse control the power
supply to the fans at the evaporators.
Pulse control can be accomplished in one of the following ways:
- during the thermostat’s cutout period (cold room)
- during night operation and during the thermostat’s cutout pe-
riod (appliance with night lid)
(The function is not actual when r14=2, i.e. modulating
regulation).
A period of time is set as well as the percentage of this period of

time where the fans have to be operating.
Period time
Cutout of fans during plant breakdowns
If the refrigeration in a breakdown situation stops, the
temperature in the cold room may rise quickly as a result of the
power supply from large fans. In order to prevent this situation the
controller can stop the fans if the temperature at S5 exceeds a set
limit value.
Light function
The function can be used for controlling the light in a refrigeration
appliance or in a cold room. It can also be used for controlling a
motorised night blind.
The light function can be defined in three ways:

- the light is controlled via a signal from a door contact. Together
with this function a time delay can be set so that the light is kept
on for a period of time after the door has been closed.
- the light is controlled via the day/night function
- the light is controlled via the data communication from a system
unit.
Here there are two operational options if data communication
should fail:
- The light can go ON
- The light can stay in its current mode.
The light load must be connected to the NC switch on the relay.

This ensures that the light remains on in the appliance if power to
the controller should fail.
The light is switched off when "r12" (Main switch) is set to off (see
o98).
The light is switched off when the appliance cleaning function is
activated.
Night blind
Motorised night blind can be controlled automatically from the
controller. The night blinds will follow the status of the light
function. When the light is switched on, the night blinds opens
and when the light is switched off, the night blinds close again.
When the night blinds are closed, it is possible to open them using
a switch signal on the digital input. If this pulse signal is activated,
the night blinds will open and the refrigeration appliance can be
filled with new products. If the pulse signal is activated again, the
blinds close again.
When the night blind function is used, the thermostat function
can control with different weighting between the S3 and S4
sensors. A weighting during day operation and another when the
blind is closed.
A night blind is open when the appliance cleaning function is
activated.
A setting can define that the night blind is open when "r12" (Main
switch) is set to off (see o98).
When the night blind rolls down, the fan will be stopped for
2 minutes. The night blind can thereby roll down to the correct
position.

Digital inputs
There are two digital inputs DI1 and DI2 with contact function and
one digital input DI3 with high voltage signal.
They can be used for the following functions:
- Retransmission of contacts position via data communication
- Door contact function with alarm
- Starting a defrost
- Main switch - start/stop of cooling
- Night setback
- Thermostat bands switch
- General alarm monitoring
- Appliance cleaning
- Case shut down
- Forced cooling
- Override of night blinds
- Coordinated defrost (DI2 only)
- Forced closing of valve (DI 3 only)
Forced closing
The AKV valves can be closed with an external signal ( "Forced
closing").
The function must be used in connection with the compressor’s
safety circuit, so that there will be no injection of liquid into the
evaporator when the compressor is stopped by the safety con-
trols. (However not at low pressure – LP).
If a defrost cycle is in progress, the forced closing status will not
be re-established until the defrost is completed. Otherwise, the
defrost cycle is stopped immediately once the signal is received.
The function is defined in o90. The signal can be received from the
DI3-input or via the data communication.
During a forced closing the fans can be defined to be stopped or
in operation.
Door contact
The door contact function can via the digital inputs be defined for
two different applications:
Alarm monitoring
The controller monitors the door contact and delivers an alarm
message if the door has been opened for a longer period than
the set alarm delay.
Alarm monitoring and stop of refrigeration
When the door is opened the refrigeration is stopped, i.e. the
injection, the compressor and the fan are stopped and light
switch on.
If the door remains open for a longer time than the set restart
time, refrigeration will be resumed. This will ensure that
refrigeration is maintained even if the door is left open or if the
door contact should be defective. If the door remains open for
a longer period than the set alarm delay an alarm will also be
triggered.
Heating function
The heating function is used to prevent the temperature
becoming too low, e.g. in a cutting room, etc. The limit for when Refrigeration
the heating function cuts off is set as an offset value under the
current cutout limit for the refrigeration thermostat. This ensures
that refrigeration and heating do not occur simultaneously. Neutral zone
The difference for the heating thermostat has the same value
as for the refrigeration thermostat. To prevent that the heating Heat
thermostat cuts in during short-term drops in air temperature a
time delay can be set for when to change from refrigeration to
heating.

Data communication
The controller has fixed built-in MODBUS data communication.
If there is a requirement for a different form of data

communication, a Lon RS 485 or DANBUSS module can be
inserted in the controller.
The connection must then be to terminal RS 485.
(To use a Lon RS 485 module and gateway type AKA 245 the AKA
245 must be Version 6.20 or higher.)
Display
The controller has one plug for a display. Here display type EKA
163B or EKA 164B (max. length 15m) can be connected.
EKA 163B is a display for readings.
EKA 164B is both for readings and operation.
The connection between display and controller may be with a
cable which has a plug at both ends.
If the distance between display and controller is greater than 15

m, the connection must take another form. ! Address
o03 > 0
An extra module must also be mounted in the controller if data
communication is used.
The built-in MODBUS data communication is used so that the
display connection and the data communication to the other
controllers must take place via a module. The module can be:
Lon RS 485, DANBUSS or MODBUS.
When a display is to be connected to the built-in MODBUS, the
display can advantageously be changed to one of the same type,
but with Index A (version with screw terminals).
The controllers address must be set higher than 0 in order for the
display to be able to communicate with the controller.
If connection of two displays is required, one must be connected
to the plug (max. 15 m) and the other must then be connected to
the fixed data communication.
Important
All connections to the data communication MODBUS, DANBUSS
and RS 485 must comply with the requirements for data
communication cables. See literature: RC8AC.
Override
The controller contains a number of functions which can be used together with the override function in the master gateway/system
manager.

General: 1
The ten uses are all adapted for commercial
refrigeration systems in the form of either
refrigeration appliances or cold storage rooms.

In addition they have different uses and thereby

input and outputs.
Application 1-4 2
Standard applications.
This is for standard use where the vital difference
is only different combinations of the following
functions/outputs:
• Alarm
• Rail heat
• Compressor
• Light

5
The following uses have some special functions
which in brief are:
Application 5
”Two-compressor” operation.
The two compressors must be of the same size.
On start-up (after defrosting, operational stop,
etc.) both compressors are started with a set time
shift. One compressor starts at half the differential
so that an optimum adaptation of compressor
capacity takes place for the current load in the
appliance/room. There is automatic runtime 6
equalisation between the compressors.
For a more detailed description please refer to
earlier sections in the manual.
Application 6
Hot gas defrosting.
Hot gas defrosting is adapted to commercial
appliances/rooms with limited system filling.
One relay controls the main valve in the suction
line.
A changeover relay controls both the hot gas 7
valve and the drain valve.
This means that there is no time delay between
stops of hot gas and start of draining.
Application 7
Control of night blinds
Night blinds follow the status of the light function
– when the light is switched on, the night blinds
are up and when the light is switched off, the
night blinds are down. In addition a digital input
provides the option of forced opening of the
blinds so that the appliance can be filled with 8
products.
Application 8
Heat thermostat
The heat thermostat is typically used if the
temperature is to be controlled within narrower
limits, e.g. for cutting rooms, etc. The heating
thermostat can be set as a difference in relation to
the cutout limit for the refrigeration thermostat so
that simultaneous refrigeration and heating are
avoided.
9
Application 9
Two refrigeration sections – two defrost outputs
This application is for refrigeration appliances with
one valve, two evaporators and two refrigeration
sections. The temperature is controlled and is
always alarm monitored according to the S4
temperature. For this the product sensor is used as
a defrosting stop sensor for evaporator no. 2.
Application 10
Two refrigeration sections – individual alarm/ 10
display via S3
This application is for refrigeration appliances with

one valve, one evaporator and two refrigeration
sections. The temperature is always controlled
according to the S4 temperature. The product
sensor is used as an extra S3 sensor for section
no. 2. Alarm monitoring and display readings take
place individually via the "S3" sensors in each
refrigeration section.

Connection signs
The controller is provided with signs from the factory indicating

application 1.
If you employ another use, signs are provided so that you can
mount the relevant one. It is only the lower sign that needs to be
mounted.
The number is indicated on the left-hand side of the signs. Use the
sign with the current application number. One of the signs applies
to both applications 4 and 10.

Regulation is based on the set value plus a displacement, if applicable. The value is set
via a push on the centre button.
The set value can be locked or limited to a range with the settings in r02 and r 03.
The reference at any time can be seen in "u91 Cutout temp".

When the temperature is higher than the reference + the set differential, the com-
pressor relay will be cut in. It will cut out again when the temperature comes down to
the set reference.
Ref. Dif.
Setpoint limitation
The controller’s setting range for the setpoint may be narrowed down, so that much
too high or much too low values are not set accidentally - with resulting damages.
To avoid a too high setting of the setpoint, the max. allowable reference value may be r02 Max cutout °C
lowered.
To avoid a too low setting of the setpoint, the min. allowable reference value may be r03 Min cutout °C
increased.

Night setback value r13 Night offset
The thermostat’s reference will be the setpoint plus this value when the controller
changes over to night operation. (Select a negative value if there is to be cold ac-
cumulation.)
Thermostat function r14 Therm. mode
Here it is defined how the thermostat is to operate. Either as an ordinary ON/OFF ther-
mostat or as a modulating thermostat.
1: ON/OFF thermostat
2: Modulating
When operation is ”modulating” the AKV valve will limit the flow of refrigerant so that
the temperature variation will be less than for the ON/OFF thermostat.
The differential (r01) must not be set lower than 2K for "modulating".
In a decentralised plant you must select the ON/OFF thermostat setting.

Selection of thermostat sensor r15 Ther. S4 %
Here you define the sensor the thermostat is to use for its control function. S3, S4, or a
combination of them. With the setting 0%, only S3 is used (Sin). With 100%, only S4.

Melt function r16 MeltInterval
Only for control of refrigeration (-5 to +10°C). The function ensures that the evapora-
tor will not be blocked by frost. Here you set how often the function is to stop the
refrigeration and hence transform the frost to water (or ice if there is too much frost).
Melt period r17 Melt period

Here you set how long an on-going melt function is to last.
Set point 2 r21 Cutout2 temp
The thermostat’s cutout value when the thermostat band 2 is activated via a digital
input.
Selection of thermostat sensor S4% during night operation r61 Ther.S4% Ngt

“Alarm destinations” menu via AKM.
Alarm delay (short alarm delay on air temperature) A03 Alarm delay
If the upper or the lower alarm limit values are exceeded, a timer function will com-
mence. The alarm will not become active until the set time delay has been passed.
The time delay is set in minutes.
Time delay for door alarm A04 DoorOpen del
The function is defined in o02 , o37 or in o84.
Time delay for cooling (long alarm delay) A12 Pulldown del
This time delay is used during start-up, during defrost, and after a Appliance cleaning.
There will be change-over to the normal time delay (A03) when the temperature has
dropped below the set upper alarm limit.
Upper alarm limit A13 HighLim Air
Here you set when the alarm for high temperature is to start. The limit value is set in
°C (absolute value).
The limit value will be raised during night operation. The value is the same as the one
set for night setback, but will only be raised if the value is positive.
Lower alarm limit A14 LowLim Air
Here you set when the alarm for low temperature is to start. The limit value is set in °C
(absolute value).
Upper alarm limit for thermostat 2 (Thermostat band 2) A20 HighLim2 Air
(Same function as for thermostat 1)
Lower alarm limit for thermostat 2 (Thermostat band 2) A21 LowLim2 Air

Lower alarm limit for S6 temperature at thermostat 2 (Thermostat band 2) A25 LowLim2 S6
S6 temperature alarm delay A26 Al. Delay S6
The alarm is activated if one of the relevant alarm limits A22, A23, A24 or A25 is
exceeded. The time delay is set in minutes.
(Alarms will not activate when the setting is set to the maximum value.)
Delay of a DI1 alarm A27 AI.Delay DI1
A cut-out/cut-in input will result in alarm when the time delay has been passed. The
function is defined in o02.
Delay of a DI2 alarm A28 AI.Delay DI2
A cut-out/cut-in input will result in alarm when the time delay has been passed. The
function is defined in o37

Signal to the alarm thermostat A36 Alarm S4%
Here you have to define the ratio between the sensors which the alarm thermostat
has to use. S3, S4 or a combination of the two.
With setting 0% only S3 is used. With 100% only S4 is used
Time delay on S6 (product sensor) for pull-down (long alarm delay) A52 PullD del.S6
This time delay is used for start-up, during defrosting, immediately after a defrost and
after an appliance clean.
A change is carried out to standard time delay (A26) when the temperature has
reached below the set upper alarm limit.

Compressor Compressor control
The compressor relay works in conjunction with the thermostat. When the thermo-
stat calls for refrigeration the compressor relay be operated.
Running times
To prevent irregular operation, values can be set for the time the compressor is to run
once it has been started. And for how long it at least has to be stopped.
The running times are not observed when defrosts start.
Min. ON-time (in minutes) c01 Min. On time
Min. OFF-time (in minutes) c02 Min. Off time
Time delay for couplings of two compressors c05 Step delay
Settings indicate the time that has to elapse from the first relay cuts in and until the
next relay has to cut in.
The LED on the controller’s front will show whether refrigeration is in progress. u58 comp7/LLSV
Here you can read the status of the
compressor relay.
Defrost Defrost control
The controller contains a timer function that is zeroset after each defrost start.
The timer function will start a defrost if/when the interval time is passed.
The timer function starts when voltage is connected to the controller, but it is dis-
placed the first time by the setting in d05.
If there is power failure the timer value will be saved and continue from here when
the power returns.
This timer function can be used as a simple way of starting defrosts, but it will always
act as safety defrost if one of the subsequent defrost starts is not received.
The controller also contains a real-time clock. By means of settings of this clock and
times for the required defrost times, defrost can be started at fixed times of the day.
Defrost start can also be accomplished via data communication, via contact signals or
manual start-up.
All starting methods will function in the controller. The different functions have to be
set, so that multiple defrosts are avoided..
Defrost can be accomplished with electricity, hotgas or brine.
The actual defrost will be stopped based on time or temperature with a signal from a
temperature sensor.
Defrost method d01 Def. method
Here you set whether defrost is to be accomplished with electricity, gas, or (none). 0 = off
During defrost the defrost relay will be cut in. 1 = El
2 = Gas
Defrost stop temperature d02 Def. Stop Temp
The defrost is stopped at a given temperature which is measured with a sensor (the
sensor is defined in d10).
The temperature value is set.

Interval between defrost starts d03 Def Interval
The function is zeroset and will start the timer function at each defrost start. When (0=off )
the time has expired the function will start a defrost.
The function is used as a simple defrost start, or it may be used as a safeguard if the
normal signal fails to appear.
If master/slave defrost without clock function or without data communication is used,
the interval time will be used as max. time between defrosts.
If a defrost start via data communication does not take place, the interval time will be
used as max. time between defrosts.
When there is defrost with clock function or data communication, the interval time
must be set for a somewhat longer period of time than the planned one, as the
interval time will otherwise start a defrost which a little later will be followed by the
planned one.
In connection with power failure the interval time will be maintained, and when the
power returns the interval time will continue from the maintained value.
The interval time is not active when set to 0.
Max. defrost duration d04 Max Def. time
This setting is a safety time so that the defrost will be stopped if there has not already
been a stop based on temperature or via coordinated defrost.
(The setting is the defrost time if d10 is set to 0.)
Time staggering for defrost cut ins during start-up d05 Time Stagg.
The function is only relevant if you have several refrigeration appliances or groups
where you want the defrost to be staggered in relation to one another. The function is
furthermore only relevant if you have chosen defrost with interval start (d03).
The function delays the interval time d03 by the set number of minutes, but it only
does it once, and this at the very first defrost taking place when voltage is connected
to the controller.
The function will be active after each and every power failure.
Drip-off time d06 DripOff time
Here you set the time that is to elapse from a defrost and until the compressor is to
start again. (The time when water drips off the evaporator).
Delay of fan start after defrost d07 FanStartDel
Here you set the time that is to elapse from compressor start after a defrost and until
the fan may start again. (The time when water is “tied” to the evaporator).
Fan start temperature d08 FanStartTemp
The fan may also be started a little earlier than mentioned under “Delay of fan start
after defrost”, if the defrost sensor S5 registers a lower value than the one set here.
Fan cut in during defrost d09 FanDuringDef
Here you can set whether fan is to operate during defrost.
0: Stopped (Runs during pump down)
1: Running (stopped during "fan delay")
2: Running during pump down and defrost. After that stopped

Defrost on demand – aggregate refrigeration time d18 MaxTherRunT
Set here is the refrigeration time allowed without defrosts. If the time is passed, a
defrost will be started.
With setting = 0 the function is cut out.
Delay on stop of heating in the drip tray d20 Drip Tray del
The time applies from the time the defrost stops by time or temperature to the time
the heating element in the drip tray needs to be disconnected.
Adaptive defrosting d21 AD mode
An adaptive defrosting is an extra defrost in addition to the scheduled defrosts or a
cancellation of a scheduled defrost.
Here the adaptive defrost is set for when it can come into operation if the need arises:
0: Never,
1: Never, but triggers an alarm in the case of icing up
2: Cancellation of day schedule is permitted. Night schedule is carried out
3: Cancellation of day schedule is permitted. Cancellation of night schedule is permit-
ted
4: All schedules are carried out + extra if it is registered that it is required.

Fault message
In an error situation the LED’s on the front will flash and the alarm relay will be activated. If you push the top button in this situation you can see the
alarm report in the display.
There are two kinds of error reports - it can either be an alarm occurring during the daily operation, or there may be a defect in the installation.
A-alarms will not become visible until the set time delay has expired.
E-alarms, on the other hand, will become visible the moment the error occurs.
(An A alarm will not be visible as long as there is an active E alarm).

Configuration of alarm relay P41 1 1 1 1 1 0 127 111
The alarm relay will be activated upon an alarm signal
from the following groups:
1 - High temperature alarms
2 - Low temperature alarms
4 - Sensor error
8 - Digital input enabled for alarm
16 - Defrosting alarms
32 - Miscellaneous
64 - Injection alarms
The groups that are to activate the alarm relay must be
set by using a numerical value which is the sum of the
groups that must be activated.
(E.g.: a value of 5 will activate all high temperature
alarms and all sensor error and 0 will cancel the relay
function).
