ComDry Control System

2.1.1 Internal controlling sensor

The internal humidity sensor is the controlling sensor as default. This is indicated by a (*) before the reading
in the display (*RH1… / *D1… / *X1…).

2.1.2 External controlling sensor

Optionally, an external sensor can be connected. It will automatically be designated RH2 / D2 / X2) by the
system. When connected, it is possible to choose external sensor as control. The display will then show
(*RH2... / *D2... / *X2…).

With an external sensor set as control sensor, it is possible to disconnect and reconnect the external sensor
without losing the control setting, e.g. [*RH2…] while the unit is switched off (but powered). When
switched on, the system makes five attempts (during 20 seconds) to contact the external controlling sensor.
If this fails, the system reverts to the internal RH1-sensor. Subsequently any renewed assignment of the
external sensor as control must be carried out manually.

2.2 Run time

Run time is registered as long as the process air fan is operating. It stops counting when the unit is in stand
by mode or is switched off. The system has two run time counters, one resettable trip meter and one
non-resettable total run time counter.
