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

Light-emitting diodes (LED) on front panel

There are LED’s on the front panel which will light up when the 
belonging relay is activated.

The uppermost LED will indicate when the valve is moving 
towards a greater opening degree.
The next LED will indicate when the valve is moving towards a 
smaller opening degree.
The third one will indicate when the thermostat demands 
refrigeration.
All light-emitting diodes will flash when there is an error in the 
regulation.

In this situation you can upload the error code on the display and 
cancel the alarm by giving the uppermost button a brief push.

Display

The values will be shown with three digits, and with a setting you 
can determine whether the temperature are to be shown in °C or 
in °F.  (Pressure in bar or psig.)

Operation

The buttons

When you want to change a setting, the two buttons will give you 
a higher or lower value depending on the button you are push-
ing. But before you change the value, you must have access to the 
menu. You obtain this by pushing the upper button for a couple 
of seconds - you will then enter the column with parameter codes. 
Find the parameter code you want to change and push the two 
buttons simultaneously. When you have changed the value, save 
the new value by once more pushing the two buttons simultane-
ously.

Examples of operations

Set set-point for the thermostat

1. Push the two buttons simultaneously
2. Push one of the buttons and select the new value
3. Push both buttons again to conclude the setting
 

Set one of the other menus

1. Push the upper button until a parameter is shown
2. Push one of the buttons and find the parameter you want to 

change

3. Push both buttons simultaneously until the parameter value is 

shown

4. Push one of the buttons and select the new value
5. Push both buttons again to conclude the setting

*) Used only when thermostat function (r14 = 1) is selected.

**) The display on the controller can display 3 digits only, but  the setting value has 

4 digits. Only the 3 most important will be shown. It means f.ex. . 250 will give a 
setting of 2500.
