Configuring the Remote Controller
5.7.1 Address Setting
Address setting is required when connecting the humidifier main unit(s) and remote controller.
The remote controller’s automatic address setting function detects the number of connected humidifier units
(to the remote controller) and completes initial settings. The remote controller has been pre-configured
with address settings for a single humidifier.
To perform address setting:
1. Supply power to all humidifier units. All lights on the remote controller will blink for ~5 seconds. After
5 seconds, the lights will shut off EXCEPT the alarm light. The alarm light will remain on.
2. On the remote controller, press the and hold the FAN button
and
the STOP button for at least 3
seconds. Address setting will begin. This process may take up to 2-3 minutes.
During address setting:
•
The high fan and low fan light will blink at 2 Hz (2 times per second) for one minute. After one
minute, the lights will turn off.
•
The humidification light will blink at half-second intervals for a total equal to the number of units
connected (ex. Unit will blink 3 times if there are 2 units connected to the main humidifier - 3 units
total). This process repeats three times. After completion, the humidification light will turn off.
After address setting, all lights will turn off, including the alarm light.
3. Press the power button to turn on the humidifier(s). The power and humidification light will turn on,
and the fans in the humidifier will activate (after a 10 minute delay). The default setpoint is 40% RH.
After address setting, you may check the number of units connected to a single remote controller.
This will allow you to determine if there is a disconnected humidifier.
5.7.2
Alarm Settings (for multiple units)
When using a single remote controller to control multiple humidifier units, alarm signals will be output
individually from each humidifier unit via terminals 1 and 3.
Alarm signals are output when a unit’s safety protection function activates. Refer to chapter
for more details about troubleshooting alarms.
Refer to the installation manual for details on installing external alarm outputs.
5.7.3 Selecting a Humidistat to Use
By default, humidity level detection is carried out by the humidistat built into the remote controller. Settings
must be changed to enable humidity level detection using an unsupplied humidistat.
To enable/disable an external humidistat:
1. Ensure that all lights on the controller are off.
2. Press and hold the side button on the remote controller for 3 seconds. The power light illuminates
green.
3. Press the fan button to toggle between the high and low fan light.
•
The low fan light will enable an external humidistat.
•
If the low fan light is off, the humidistat in the remote controller will be used.
4. Save the setting by pressing the side button 2 times. The high fan light will illuminate orange for 3
seconds. The remote controller powers off once this process is completed.
