6. Operating 

procedures 

6.1. Power 

connection 

 

Caution: 

  Only connect the unit to a power socket with earthing contact (PE – protective 

earth)! 

  The power supply plug serves as safe disconnecting device from the line and must 

be always easily accessible. 

  Never operate equipment with damaged mains power cables. 

  Regularly check the mains power cables for material defects (e.g. for cracks). 

 

We disclaim all liability for damage caused by incorrect line voltages! 

 
 
 

Check to make sure that the line voltage matches the supply voltage 
specified on the identification plate. Deviations of ±10 % are permissible.

 

6.2.  Switching on / Selecting the language 

 

 

 

Switching on: 

  Turn on the mains power switch (1). 

 

 

The unit performs a self-test. 
Then the software version (example: V 1.xx-xxxx) appears. The 
display „

OFF

“ or „

R

 

OFF

“ indicates the unit is ready to operate. 

 

 

The circulator enters the operating mode activated before switching 
the circulator off: 

keypad control mode 

(manual operation) or 

remote control mode 

(operation via personal computer).  

 

 

 

 

Selecting the language: 

There are two options for the language of the LCD DIALOG-DISPLAY: 
German or English. Select the desired language in the menu 
>Configuration< under the submenu >Language/Sprache<. 

Press the respective keys in the following order: 

 

 

 3x  up to menu  Configuration  

 

 

  

6x  up to submenu >Language/Sprache<

   

  

 

  

 

 deutsch / english
