UC100
Communicative heating
controller
Summary
UC100 is a communicative room heating controller with one PWM output for
control of a radiator or electrical heater. It can work autonomously, or in
connection to a primary controller (MiniPLC or SoftPLC), building management
system (RcWare Vision or any SCADA), or to UCWEB
–
the web interface.
Application
▪
Systems with radiators, electric heaters, or floor heating
–
control and
measuring of room temperature
▪
monitoring and communication of room temperatures
Function
The controller reads actual room temperature, setpoint shift by a knob, and set
operation status which is set by short push of the knob. The room temperature is
measured in the range of -20 to +50
°C. Measured and set values are processed in a PI
algorithm, at the output of which there is a PWM controlled triac. All values are
displayed on a large LCD display.
The output works either as PWM controlled by a PI controller, or on/off (thermostat).
The functionality and control parameters, i.e. P and I constants, and hysteresis, can be
set with
ModComTool
, the configuration software, which is free to download at

The controller contains real time clock with a weekly scheduler (6 events per day). It
changes between three operation modes: Day, Night, and Off. A short push in the Night
mode switches to Party mode
–
Comfort extension by 2 hours.
The Change-over function (communicated over the bus) switches to the cooling mode
while cooling setpoints come into effect. This mode is used when heat pumps with
change-over mode are installed. The change-over signal is read from the heat pump
interface or a thermostat at the supply water piping, and is transmitted to the
controllers over MiniPLC, UCWEB, or any Modbus master. See

communication examples.
