4.2.1 Display elements
4.2.1.1 Status display
The status of the controller is indicated by a LED strip in the front. In control mode, this indi-
cator lights up green. In case of a warning or alarm, the display changes to yellow or red
(traffic light status).
Green signals all is well. The controller operates in
normal mode.
Yellow indicates warning messages that indicate a
deviation from the normal state.
Red indicates alarms. Depending on the fault, outputs
of corresponding zones are also deactivated.
4.2.1.2 Zone display
Each heating zone has two 7-segment displays and four LEDs for status indication. The 7-
segment displays show either the setpoint and actual value or the heating current and de-
gree of operation. In addition, the four LEDs can also be used to display the states shown
below.
