DIGITAL INPUT 

One digital input is present configurable by user by means of the i1F parameter according to the 
following descriptions.  

8.1

 

DOOR SWITCH (I1F = dor) 

It signals the door status and the corresponding relay output status through the “odc” parameter: no = 
normal (any change); Fan = Fan OFF; oFF = all the loads are switched off. 

 

Since the door is opened, after the delay time set through parameter “dOA”, the alarm output is 
enabled and the display shows the message “dA”.  
The status of loads depends on the “rrd” parameter:  

with rrd=no outputs are not affected by the doA alarm;  
with rrd=yES = outputs restart with the doA alarm; 

The alarm stops as soon as the external digital input is disabled again. During this time and then for the 
delay “dot” and “doH” after closing the door, the temperature and humidity alarms are disabled. 

8.2

 

GENERIC ALARM (I1F = EAL) 

As soon as the digital input is activated the unit will wait for “did” time delay before signalling the “EAL” 
alarm message. The outputs status don’t change. The alarm stops just after the digital input is de-
activated. 

8.3

 

SERIOUS ALARM MODE (I1F = BAL) 

When the digital input is activated, the unit will wait for “did” delay before signalling the “bAL” alarm 
message. The relay outputs are switched OFF. The alarm will stop as soon as the digital input is de-
activated. 

8.4

 

PRESSURE SWITCH (I1F = PAL) 

If during the interval time set by “did” parameter, the pressure switch has reached the number of 
activation of  the “nPS” parameter, the “PAL” pressure alarm message will be displayed. The 
compressor and the regulation are stopped. When the digital input is ON the compressor is always 
OFF. 

If the nPS activation in the did time is reached, switch off and on the instrument to restart 

normal regulation. 

8.5

 

HEATING RELAY SAFETY (i1F=Ht) 

With i1F=Ht as soon as the digital input is activated for “did”  time heating relay is disabled. 
The alarm will stop as soon as the digital input is de-activated. 

8.6

 

DIGITAL INPUTS POLARITY  

The digital input polarity depends on the “i1P” parameters. 
 CL : the digital input is activated by closing the contact. 

 OP : the digital input is activated by opening the contact

INSTALLATION AND MOUNTING 

Instruments XW240L shall be mounted on vertical panel, in a 150x31 mm hole, and fixed using two 
screws 

 3 x 2mm. To obtain an IP65 protection grade use the front panel rubber gasket (mod. RG-L).  

Instrument XH260V shall be mounted on vertical panel, in a 72x56 mm hole, and fixed using screws 

 

3 x 2mm. To obtain an IP65 protection grade use the front panel rubber gasket (mod. RG-V).  
The temperature range allowed for correct operation is 0 - 60 °C. Avoid places subject to strong 
vibrations, corrosive gases, excessive dirt or humidity. The same recommendations apply to probes. 
Let the air circulate by the cooling holes.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS 

The instruments are provided with screw terminal block to connect cables with a cross section up to 2,5 
mm

for the digital and analogue inputs. Relays and power supply have a Faston connection (6,3mm). 

Heat-resistant cables have to be used. Before connecting cables make sure the power supply complies 
with the instrument’s requirements. Separate the probe cables from the power supply cables, from the 
outputs and the power connections. Do not exceed the maximum current allowed on each relay, in case 
of heavier loads use a suitable external relay. 
N.B. Maximum current allowed for all the loads is 20A. 

10.1

 

PROBE CONNECTIONS 

The probes shall be mounted with the bulb upwards to prevent damages due to casual liquid infiltration. 
It is recommended to place the thermostat probe away from air streams to correctly measure the 
average room temperature.
