15.  USE OF THE PROGRAMMING HOT-KEY 

The XM units can UPLOAD or DOWNLOAD the parameter list from its own E2 internal 
memory to the 

HOT-KEY 

and  vice-versa through  a TTL connector. Using 

HOT-KEY 

the Adr will not changed

15.1  DOWNLOAD (FROM THE HOT-KEY TO THE INSTRUMENT) 

1. 

Turn OFF the instrument by means of the ON/OFF key, insert the 

HOT-KEY 

and 

then turn the unit ON. 

2. 

Automatically  the  parameter  list  of  the 

HOT-KEY

  is  downloaded  into  the 

controller memory: the 

doL

 message is blinking. After 10 seconds the instrument 

will restart working with the new parameters. At the end of the data transfer phase 
the instrument displays the following messages: 

End

 for right programming. The 

instrument  starts  regularly  with  the  new  programming. 

Err

  for  failed 

programming.  In this case turn the unit off and then on if you want to restart the 
download again or remove the 

HOT-KEY 

to abort the operation. 

15.2  UPLOAD (FROM THE INSTRUMENT TO THE HOT-KEY) 

 

1. 

When the XM unit is ON, insert the 

HOT-KEY

 and push 

“UP”

 key 

2. 

The UPLOAD begins; the 

uPL

 message is blinking. 

3. 

Remove  the 

HOT-KEY. 

At  the  end  of  the  data  transfer  phase  the  instrument 

displays the following messages: 

 

End

 = right programming; 

 

Err

 = failed programming. In this case push 

SET

 key if  you  want to restart the 

programming again or remove the not programmed 

HOT-KEY

16.  CONTROLLING LOADS 

16.1  THE COOLING OUTPUT 

The regulation is performed according to the temperature measured by the thermostat 
probe  that  can  be  physical  probe  or  virtual  probe  obtained  by  a  weighted  average 
between two probes following the formula: 
 

value_for_room_regulation = (rPA*rPE + rPb*(100-rPE))/100 

 

If the temperature increases and reaches set point plus differential the solenoid valve 
is opened and then it is closed when the temperature reaches the set point value again.  
In case of fault in the thermostat probe the opening and closing time of solenoid valve 
is configured by 

Con

 and 

CoF

 parameters. 

16.2  STANDARD REGULATION AND CONTINUOUS REGULATION 

The temperature regulation can be performed in three ways: the goal of the first way 
(

standard  regulation

)  is  reaching  the  best  superheat  via  a  classic  temperature 

regulation  obtained  using  hysteresis.  The  second  way  permits  to  use  the  valve  to 
realize  an  high  performance  temperature  regulation  with  a  good  factor  of  superheat 
precision. 

This second possibility, it can be used only in centralized plants and it 

is available only with electronic expansion valve

 by selecting [

CrE = Y

] parameter. 

The third kind of regulation has been thought to be used with vales called evaporator 
valves  [

CrE  =  EUP

],  in  this  configuration  the  valve  is  placed  at  the  end  of  the 

evaporator.    In  any  case,  the  regulation  is  performed  via  PI  regulator  that  gives  the 
opening percentage to the valve.

 

 

Standard regulation: [CrE = n]

 

In this case, the 

HY

 parameter is the differential for standard ON/OFF regulation.  In 

this case the 

int

 parameter is neglected. 

 

 
Continuous regulation: [CrE = Y] 

In  this  case,  the 

HY

  parameter  is  the  proportional  band  of  PI  in  charge  of  room 

temperature  regulation  and  we  advise  to  used  at  least  [

HY  =  6.0°C/12°F

].  The 

int

 

parameter is the integral time of the same PI regulator.  Increasing 

int

 parameter the 

PI regulator become slowly in reaction and of course is true vice versa. To disable the 
integral part of regulation you should set [

int = 0

]. 

 
Evaporator valves: [CrE = EUP] 

In  this  case,  the  system  performs  a  regulation  of  the  temperature  without  taking  in 
consideration the superheat (in fact the valve is at the end of the evaporator). The 

HY

 

parameter is the proportional band for the temperature regulation and 

int

 is the integral 

time for the regulation.  
The proportional action is performed only when the compressor relay is on. 
In this situation there is no superheat regulation. 

16.3  DEFROST 

Defrost starting 
In any case, the device check the temperature read by configured defrost probe 
before starting defrost procedure, after that: 

-

 (If  RTC  is  present)Two  defrost  modes  are  available  through  the 

tdF

  parameter: 

defrost with electrical heater and hot gas defrost. The defrost interval is controlled 
by parameter 

EdF

: (

EdF

 = 

rtC

) defrost is made in real time depending on the hours 

set in the parameters 

Ld1 

to 

Ld6

 in workdays and in 

Sd1 

to 

Sd6

 on holidays; (

EdF

 

in

) the defrost is made every 

IdF

 time. 

-

 Defrost  cycle  starting  can  be  operated  locally  (manual  activation  by  means  of  the 

keyboard or digital input or end of interval time) or the command can come from the 
Master  defrost  unit  of  the  LAN.  In  this  case  the  controller  will  operate  the  defrost 
cycle following the parameters it has programmed but, at the end of the drip time, 
will wait that all the other controllers of the LAN finish their defrost cycle before to re-
start the normal regulation of the temperature according to 

dEM

 parameter. 

-

 Every  time  any  of  the  controller  of  the  LAN  begin  a  defrost  cycle  it  issue  the 

command into the network making all the other controllers start their own cycle. This 
allows  a  perfect  synchronization  of  the  defrost  in  the  whole  multiplexed  cabinet 
according to 

LMd

 parameter. 

 
Defrost ending 

-

 When defrost is started  via 

rtC

, the maximum duration of defrost is obtained  from 

Md

 parameter and the defrost end temperature is obtained from 

dtE

 parameter  

-

 If 

dPA

 is present and [

d2P = Y

]

,

 the instrument stops the defrost procedure  when 

dPA

 is higher than 

dtE

 temperature. 

 
At the end of defrost the drip time is controlled through the 

Fdt

 parameter.  

16.4  FANS 

CONTROL WITH RELAY 

The fan control mode is selected by means of the 

FnC

 parameter: 

C-n

 = running with the solenoid valve, OFF during the defrost;  

C-Y

 = running with th1e solenoid valve, ON during the defrost; 

O-n

 = continuous mode, OFF during the defrost; 

O-Y

 = continuous mode, ON during the defrost. 

 
An  additional  parameter 

FSt

  provides  the  setting  of  temperature,  detected  by  the 

evaporator probe,  above which the fans are always OFF. This can be used to make 
sure circulation of air only if his temperature is lower than set in 

FSt

 
CONTROL WITH ANALOG OUTPUT (if present)
