The control unit (1) has magnetic holders on its rear side for attachment at any desired point on the outer skin of the de-

vice, preferably in the area of the maintenance panel. The unit is connected to the control with a spiral cable via a network 

socket located above the main switch. An optional 15 m long extension cable is available from AL-KO THERM GmbH. By 

opening the closing clip on the underside of the control unit, the control unit can be opened and the spiral cable can be 

replaced with a longer network cable.

Alternatively, a wall-mounting bracket with three screw connections is possible; for this purpose, the unit must be 

opened in the unplugged state on its rear side.

Pressing the INFO button (2) calls up the start page on the display. The integrated LED signals the status of the compact 

air handling unit:

 

„

LED off: Unit ready for operation or unplugged

 

„

LED green: Unit in operation

 

„

LED red: There is a malfunction.

The display (3) shows operating conditions, settings as well as actual and setpoint values.

The knob (4) provides the following settings:

 

„

Clockwise rotation corresponds to scrolling up the display menu or increasing a setting value.

 

„

Turning anti-clockwise corresponds to scrolling down the menu or decreasing a setting value.

 

„

Pressing the rotary knob allows you to confirm a new setting or jump to a menu item or a menu page.

The ESC button (5) allows you to jump back to the previous menu page in the user interface.

The alarm button (6) calls up the alarm pages. The integrated alarm LED flashes red when an alarm is present. In the 

fault-free state, the alarm LED is off.
