Actuator temperature 

Display of valve temperature

The display constantly shows the valve's temperature.

The display is filtered over a period of approx. 10 seconds

-

Actuator temp.

Valve’s basic temperature reference

This temperature setting is the valve’s basic setting. At this value no signal must be 

received from an external regulation. 

The setting value is taken from one of the curves shown and may be fine-adjusted lat-

er when the valve has reached the temperature (read the manometer in the system).

(Push both buttons simultaneously to set the menu)

-

SP Temp. 

Temperature

 uni

t

Set here whether the controller is to show the temperature values in °C or in °F. If  in-

dication in °F is selected, other temperature settings will also change over to Fahren-

heit, either as absolute values or as delta values.

r05

Temp. unit  (°C=0, °F=1)

(In AKM only °C is displayed, whatever 

the setting).

Input signal’s temperature influence

This setting determines how much the input signal has to raise the temperature in 

the valve. You should aim at selecting the value, so that the valve can close at the 

highest occurring  evaporating pressure when the input signal is maximum (value to 

be set in Kelvin)

r06

Ext.Ref.offset K

Reference

The valve’s temperature is regulated on the basis of the basic setting plus the signal 

from the external regulation.  (Reference = SP Temp + percentage of "r06".)

The reference can be seen when you push the lower of the two buttons

External signal

Here you set the signal that is to be connected to the controller.

0: no signal

1: 4-20 mA

2: 0-20 mA

3: 0-10 V

4: 2-10 V

Data communication

If the controller is built into a network with data communication, it must have an 

address, and the master gateway of the data communication must then know this 

address.

These settings can only be made when a data communication module has been 

mounted in the controller and the installation of the data communication cable has 

been completed.

This installation is mentioned in a separate document “RC.8A.C”.

Following installation of a data com-

munication module, the controller can 

be operated on a par with the other 

controllers in ADAP-KOOL

®

 refrigera-

tion controls.

The address is set between 1 and 60

o03

The address is sent to the gateway when the menu is set in pos. ON

o04

Language

This setting is only required when data communication is connected to the controller.

Settings: 0=English, 1=German, 2=French, 3=Danish, 4=Spanish, and 6= Swedish

When the controller is operated via data communication, the texts in the right-hand 

column will be shown in the selected language.

When you change the setting to an other language you must activate o04 before "the 

new language" can be visible from the AKM program.

Service

The signal will be constantly updated. If you wish to follow the signal beyond the 

20 seconds, the time-out period, push one of the two buttons before the time-out 

period expires

External current signal

Here you can read the value of the current signal received by the controller at its input

External voltage signal

Here you can read the value of the voltage signal received by the controller at its 

input
