4. MODES OF OPERATION
Selecting the Operating Mode:
At power-up, the unit will turn all lights on for 3 seconds in order to allow lamp check. Then
it goes in the STOP mode and the stop led turns on.

The compressor may be run through Remote Start signal (upper display shows  for 5
seconds) or by pressing the RUN button.
If P28 Safety Timer has not elapsed, the run led will flash until expiration of the timer. Then
if the pressure is below the limit set by P05 Start Pressure, then the compressor will run.

In the occurrence of an alarm the compressor stops

immediately and the upper display shows the alarm code.
A comprehensive list of alarm codes is given in chapter 5.

The compressor may be stopped with Remote Stop signal (upper display shows  for
5 seconds) or the STOP button.
Stop Procedure:
STOP led starts flashing.
If the compressor is loaded, then the LOAD relay will release and the compressor
continues to run during P28 Safety Timer or P26 Unload Timer (whichever is longer).

At this step, operation may be resumed by pressing the RUN button. If STOP
button is pressed during unloaded operation, then the compressor stops immediately.
The stop led flashes until the compressor comes to complete stop.

When STOP button is pressed, if the compressor is

running unloaded, then it will continue to run until
expiration of P26 Unload Timer.
The compressor may be immediately stopped by
pressing again the STOP button.

- 11 -
DEC-40 USER MANUAL V4

Start Procedure:
If mains phase voltages and frequency are between preset limits and the phase order is
correct, then the POWER led will turn on. The compressor may run only when the power
led is on. Otherwise it cannot run.

The Run mode of operation is selected by pressing the RUN button or by sending
REMOTE START/STOP signal (if enabled). At this position, when the pressure falls below
P05 Start Pressure (or pressure switch closes) the unit decides to run the compressor.
Befor running the compressor the STAR relay output becomes active. After P15 Delay
between Relays Timer LINE relay will be activated. Thus the motor starts in star mode.
After P23 Star Timer the STAR relay opens and after P24 Star/Delta Transition Timer the
DELTA relay operates.
After P25 Timer before Loading the LOAD relay operates and the compressor starts
producing compressed air.

Unloading and Reloading:

When the pressure reaches P04 Stop Pressure (or pressure switch opens) then the LOAD
relay opens and the compressor runs unloaded during P26 Unload Timer. If the pressure
falls below P05 Start Pressure before the expiration of the timer, then the LOAD relay
energizes again.

Stopping and Restarting:

If the pressure stays over the P05 Start Pressure limit (or pressure switch opened) during
P26 Unload Timer, then the DELTA relay will release. After P15 Delay between Relays
timer, the LINE relay releases.
In this situation, the RUN led starts flashing.
The maximum number of starts that the compressor may perform in one hour is adjusted
with P37 Maximum Starts per Hour parameter.
If the maximum start count is reached, then the compressor stopping is disabled and it will
continue to run unloaded until the end of 1 hour period.

5. ALARMS AND WARNINGS

Abnormal situations in the compressor are evaluated under 3 different categories as
ALARMS, WARNINGS and SERVICE REQUESTS.
Warnings are lowest level fault conditions and generate only visual warning, not affecting
the compressor operation.
Alarms are highest level fault conditions and cause the compressor to stop immediately,
the alarm relay to become active (if enabled by programming) and visual warning to occur.
If any fault condition occurs, the fault code will appear on the upper display and the related
fault category led turns on. (WARNING, ALARM or SERVICE)

Alarms and warnings may be reset by pressing the MENU button. The EMERGENCY
STOP alarm cannot be reset by pressing buttons, the alarm signal must be removed.

DEC-40 USER MANUAL V4

6.2. MODIFYING HOUR COUNTERS

The unit holds 3 different run hour counters:

MESSAGE DESCRIPTION
Total motor run hours
 (ON_LOAD+OFF_LOAD)
This counter increments while the motor runs.
Total load time (load contactor active)
 This counter increments while LOAD led is on.

Hour counters can only be modified while the compresor

is in STOP mode.

In order to modify hour counters:

- Hold pressed together MENU , RUN and STOP buttons for 3 seconds. If
the high level password is not entered in the last 90 minutes, the unit will ask password
().
- Enter password.

- The upper display will show  message.

6.3. CONNECTION TOPOLOGIES

The unit supports various connection topologies. The topology is selected through
parameter P48.
Different topologies and terminal connections are as below:

P48 = 1
P48 = 3

P48 = 3
P48 = 2
The power supply and measuring terminals
of the unit are isolated. In order to enable
above topology, the unit must be specially
manufactured.

DEC-40 USER MANUAL V4

6.4. PREVENTING PRESSURE LOSS

If the pressure stays above the P05 Start Pressure, during P26 Unload Timer then
the unit will stop the motor. If the pressure falls below P05 Start Pressure then the motor
will run again.
Before the compressor is loaded, a timer equal to P23+P24+P25+P15x3 will be
elapsed.
During this period, depending on the air consumption, the pressure may fall below
P05 Start Pressure.
In most applications, it is required that the pressure never falls below the P05 Start
Pressure limit.
In order to prevent this unwanted situation, the unit offers 3 different operating
modes selected through program parameter P45. The unit calculates dynamically the
restart pressure (Pi)

P45 = 0  No special care taken. Pi = P05.

P45 = 1  When the compressor is loaded, if the pressure is below P05 Start Pressure,
then the Restart Pressure (Pi) is incremented by 0.1 bar.
When the compressor is loaded, if the pressure is above P05 Start Pressure, then the
Restart Pressure (Pi) is decremented by 0.1 bar. Thus the unit tries to load at exactly P05
Start Pressure.
P45 = 2  When the compressor reaches P04 Stop Pressure, the unit measures the air
consumption during 8 seconds, then calculates the Restart Pressure (Pi) again.

At the end of P26 Unload Timer, if the pressure is above

P05 Start Pressure and below Pi Restart Pressure, then the
motor will continue to run unloaded.

DEC-40 USER MANUAL V4

6.5. ALARM HISTORY

The unit keeps the list of 9 most recent alarm records.

A new occurring alarm will appear at the top of the list.
The alarm list may be visualized on the screen or read through Modbus.
The alarm list is kept in a non-volatile memory and is not affected by power failures.
The alarm will be added to the list only if it is different from the previous alarm or the
motor has run at least 6 minutes after its previous occurrence.

In order to visualize the latest alarm in the history press MENU button until

(alarm history 1) comes to the display.

To visualize previous alarms use RUN and STOP pushbuttons.

When the alarm history is scrolled the STOP button

is always active and stops the compressor. However the
RUN button is not active and does not run the
compressor. To scroll the alarm history when the
compressor is running please use only the RUN
button.

7. DİGİTAL INPUTS
The unit offers 4 user configurable digital inputs.
The characteristics of these inputs are configured through parameters P73 to P76.
The configuration record consists on 3 parts. The programmed value is the sum of these
3 parts.

Configuration = part_1 + part_2 + part_3

Part_1 = input fault code:

This part determines which fault is generated from this input. The complete fault
code list is given in chapter 5.
Part_2 = input switch type (NO or NC)
NO (normally open) = 256
NC (normally closed) = 0
Part_3 = input detection delay
0.1sec delay = 0
0.5sec delay =512
2.0sec delay =1024
5.0sec delay = 1536
Example 1:
In order to adjust input 2 as EMERGENCY STOP, NC switch and 0.1sec delay:
Part_1 = 18 (refer chapter 5)
Part_2 = 0 (NC switch)
Part_3 = 0 (0.1 sec)
P74 (Input_2 configuration) = 18+0+0 = 18
Example_2:
In order to adjust input 4 as REMOTE START, NO switch, 2.0sec delay:
Part_1 = 200 (refer chapter 5)
Part_2 = 256 (NO kontak)
Part_3 = 1024 (2.0 sn)
P76 (Input_4 configuration) = 200+256+1024 = 1480

10. MODBUS COMMUNICATION

10.1. DESCRIPTION

The unit offers serial data communication port allowing it to be integrated in automation
systems.
The serial port works with logic levels. With special adapters, it can be converted to RS-232
or RS-485 standards.
The MODBUS properties of the unit are:
-Data transfer mode: RTU
-Serial data: 9600 bps, 8 bit data, no parity, 1 bit stop
-Supported functions:
-Function 3 (Read multiple registers, max 120 registers)
-Function 6 (Write single register)
-Function 10 (Write multiple registers, max 32 registers)
-The answer to an incoming message is sent with a minimum of 4.3ms delay after
message reception.
Each register consists of 2 bytes (16 bits). Larger data structure contain multiple registers.
Detailed description about the MODBUS protocol is found in the document “Modicon
Modbus Protocol Reference Guide”. ( http://www.modbus.org/specs.php)
Data Reading
The function 03 (read multiple registers) will be used for data reading. The MODBUS
master will send a query. The answer will be one of the below:
-A response containing the requested data
-An exceptional response indicating a read error.
The maximum number of registers read in one message is 120. If more registers are
requested, the unit will send only the first 120 registers.
The query message specifies the starting register and quantity of registers to be read. The
message structure is below:
Byte Description Value
0 Controller address 1 to 254
1 Function code 3
2 Starting address high See below the description of available
3 Starting address low registers
4 Number of registers high always 0
5 Number of registers low max 78h (120 decimal)
6 CRC low byte See below for the checksum calculation
7 CRC high byte

Here is the sequence to read 16 registers starting from address 20h (32 decimal):
01 03 00 20 00 10 45 CC (each byte is expressed as 2 hexadecimal characters)
The checksum value in the above message may be used for the verification of checksum
calculation algorithm.

DEC-40 USER MANUAL V4

The normal response will be:

Byte Description Value
0 Controller address same as in the query
1 Function code 3
2 Data lenght in bytes (L) number of registers * 2
3 High byte of 1st register
4 Low byte of 1st register
5 High byte of 2nd register
6 Low byte of 2nd register
....
L+1 High byte of the last register
L+2 Low byte of the last register
L+3 CRC low byte See below for the checksum calculation
L+4 CRC high byte

The exceptional response will be:

Byte Description Value
0 Controller address same as in the query
1 Function code 131 (function code + 128)
2 Exception code 2 (illegal address)
3 CRC low byte See below for the checksum calculation
4 CRC high byte

Data Writing
The function 06 (write single register) or function 10 (write multiple registers) is used for
data writing. A maximum of 32 registers can be written at a time.
The MODBUS master will send a query containing data to be written. The answer will be
one of the below:
-A normal response confirming successful write,
-An exceptional response indicating a write error.
Only some of the available registers are authorized to be written. An attempt to write a write
protected register will result to the exceptional response.
The query message specifies the register address and data. The message structure is
below:
Byte Description Value
0 Controller address 1 to 254
1 Function code 6
2 Register address high See below the description of available registers
3 Register address low
4 Data high byte
5 Data low byte
6 CRC low byte See below for the checksum calculation
7 CRC high byte

Here is the sequence to write the value 0010h to the register 40h (64 decimal):
01 06 00 40 00 10 89 D2 (each byte is expressed as 2 hexadecimal characters)
The checksum value in the above message may be used for the verification of checksum
calculation algorithm
The normal response will be the same as the query:
Byte Description Value
0 Controller address 1 to 254
1 Function code 6
2 Register address high See below the description of available registers
3 Register address low
4 Data high byte
5 Data low byte
6 CRC low byte See below for the checksum calculation
7 CRC high byte

The exceptional response will be:

Byte Description Value
0 Controller address same as in the query
1 Function code 134 (function code + 128)
2 Exception code 2 (illegal address)
or
10 (write protection)
3 CRC low byte See below for the checksum calculation
4 CRC high byte

CRC calculation
Here is a procedure for generating a CRC:
1) Load a 16–bit register with FFFF hex (all 1’s). Call this the CRC register.
2) Exclusive OR the first 8–bit byte of the message (the function code byte) with the low–
order byte of the 16–bit CRC register, putting the result in the CRC register.
3) Shift the CRC register one bit to the right (toward the LSB), zero–filling the MSB. Extract
and examine the LSB. The LSB is the least significant bit of the CRC before the shift
operation.
4) If the LSB is 1: Exclusive OR the CRC register with the polynomial value A001 hex.
5) Repeat Steps 3 and 4 until 8 shifts have been performed. Thus, a complete 8–bit byte
will be processed.
6) Repeat Steps 2 through 5 for the next 8–bit byte of the message. Continue doing this
until all bytes have been processed.
7) The final contents of the CRC register is the CRC value.
8) Place the CRC into the message such that the low byte is transmitted first. The algorithm
should give the correct CRC for below messages:
01 03 00 20 00 10 45 CC
01 06 00 40 00 10 89 D2

DEC-40 USER MANUAL V4

Error codes
Only 3 error codes are used:
01: illegal function code
02: illegal address
10: write protection (attempt to write a read_only register)

Data types
Each register consists of 16 bits (2 bytes)
If the data type is a byte, only the low byte will contain valid data. High byte is don’t care.
For data type longer than 16 bits, consecutive registers are used. The least significant
register comes first.

11. MULTIPLE CONTROLLER OPERATION

The multiple controller operation is designed for installations where more than one
compressor have to operate in parallel.
The multiple controller operation allows energy efficiency by running only the
necessary number of compressors in case of low air consumption. It performs equal aging
of compressors as well.
A maximum of 8 compressors can operate in parallel.
The multiple compressor operation is performed through the serial port of the unit.
Controllers will communicate through a common RS-485 bus using RS-485 converters.
The multiple compressor operation is enabled by assigning the P65 Modbus
Address = 1 to one of the controllers. Following numbers must be given to other
controllers in the same group. No gap is allowed.
If a gap exists, controllers coming after the gap will operate independently.

Operation:
1. If the communication between units is lost, then controllers will operate
independently.
2. The controller with the least engine hours will become the master and operate
following P04-P05 parameters. Other compressors will run and stop following their
engine hours.
3. If any of the compressors has P67 Master Change Period less engine hours than
the master controller, then this one becomes the new master.
4. If an alarm occurs at the master controller, then another controller will become
master.
5. If the pressure falls below P05, the master will run immediately. Other compressors
will run with delays of P66/8.
6. If at the expiration of P66 timer, the pressure is above P05 but below (P04+P05)/2,
then compressors will run with P66/4 delays.
7. When the pressure approaches P04, compressors will stop in their respective order
of run hours.
