Digital Commercial Control Package Operation

Models: HC-9 thru HC-24 with DCCP Control

VII. Digital Commercial Control Package Operation:

This control is designed to maximize energy savings by 
allowing the facility manager set a lower operation temperature 
called IDLE TEMP and also satisfy the steam bather with the 
ability to by-pass this feature on demand by pressing the 
USER BYPASS CONTROL button. Unlike a typical 24 /7 timer 
which has only an ON or OFF mode, the Digital Command 
Center has three modes MAX, IDLE and OFF. MAX is the 
normal ON mode reserved for peak hours of use when the 
steam room is held at the optimum steam bath temperature. 
IDLE mode is the energy saving mode. IDLE is set below the 
MAX temperature and provides a significant energy savings. 
As needed, the steam bather can easily switch to the MAX 
setting by pressing the button on the USER BYPASS CON-
TROL. 

A) USER BYPASS CONTROL: The USER BYPASS CON-

TROL button is only functional during the IDLE mode. In 
the IDLE mode the USER BYPASS CONTROL, typically 
mounted at the entrance to the steam room, is waiting for 
the user to press the button and select the MAX mode. 
IDLE mode is indicated on the USER BYPASS CON-
TROL by one lit bar. Pressing the USER BYPASS 
CONTROL button starts the MAX CYCLE TIMER and 
immediately begins to heat the room to the MAX setting. 
This temporary MAX CYCLE TIMER is programmable up 
to 60 minutes by the facility manager. MAX TEMP mode 
is indicated by all bars lit. When the Digital Command 
Center is set to MAX TEMP the USER BYPASS CON-
TROL icon displays max (all bars lit). In the MAX TEMP 
mode the USER BYPASS CONTROL buttons do not 
function. When the DIGITAL COMMAND CENTER is in 
the OFF mode the USER BYPASS CONTROL icon will be 
off (no bars lit) and the user buttons do not function.

B) Programming the DIGITAL COMMAND CENTER can be 

broken down into 3 separate sections, SET EVENT, SET 
VALUE, and SET CLOCK. The buttons on the control are 
grouped accordingly. SET EVENT is used to set the time 
and day that a particular mode (MAX, IDLE, or OFF) is to 
begin. SET VALUE is intended to set the MAX and IDLE 
temperature as well as the MAX CYCLE TIMER. The SET 

CLOCK section is only for adjustment of the current time 
and day. The DIGITAL COMMAND CENTER display light 
comes on when any button is pressed. The light will 
remain on for 5 minutes after the last button is pressed. 

1) SET CLOCK: The SET CLOCK section of the Digital 

Command Center is used exclusively for setting the 
current time and day. It is a convenient place to 
make changes for daylight savings time without 
having to reprogram other settings. The clock has a 
battery backup in the Control Module that will keep 
time for up to one year with no power.

(a) DAY Setting: Press the lower DAY button to 

toggle the current day of the week. 

(b) HOUR Setting: Press the lower HOUR button to 

select the current AM or PM hour and the 
correct hour will be displayed. 

(c) MINUTE setting: Press the Lower MINUTE 

button until the correct minute is displayed. 

2) SET VALUE: The SET VALUE section of the keypad 

is used to program the following 4 parameters:

(a) MAX1 TEMP is used to set the maximum 

desired operating temperature of the steam 
bath. It is set by pressing the button until the 
preferred maximum temperature is displayed. 
Note: The MAX TEMP cannot be set lower than 
the IDLE TEMP. Selection of the MAX TEMP 
setting is at the discretion of the facility 
manager.

(b) MAX2 TEMP (only available with SRP) is used 

to set the desired operating temperature of a 
second steam room. It is programmed the same 
as MAX1 TEMP. 

(c) IDLE TEMP is used to program a lower 

temperature setting during periods of less 
frequent usage. It is set by pressing the button 
until the desired set-back temperature is 
displayed. The feature can be disabled by 
setting it to 00.The IDLE TEMP cannot be set 
higher than the lowest MAX TEMP value.
