*) This setting will only be possible if a data communication module has been 
installed in the controller.

The controller can give the following messages

E1

Error message

Fault in controller

E15

Cut-out S2 sensor

E16

Shortcircuited S2 sensor

E17

Cut-out  S4 sensor

E18

Shortcircuited S4 sensor

E20

The input signal on terminals 14-15 is outside the range 
(P0 signal)

A11

Alarm message

No refrigerant has been selected

A43

Check the supply voltage to the step motor

Operating status

(Measurement)

The controller goes through some regulating 

situations where it is just waiting for the next 

point of the regulation. To make these "why 

is nothing happening" situations visible, you 

can see an operating status on the display. 

Push briefly (1 s) the upper button. If there is 

a status code, it will be shown on the display. 

The individual status codes have the following 

meanings.

Ctrl. state:

(Shown in all menu 

displays)

Normal regulation

S0

0

Refrigeration stopped by main switch. 

Either with r12 or a DI-input

S10

Factory setting
If you need to return to the factory-set values, it can be done in this way:
- Cut out the supply voltage to the controller
- Keep both buttons depressed at the same time as you recon nect the 
   supply voltage
