Operating the System Regulator
The regulator allows the solar thermal system operator to create a system matching his/her own user
profile. This is ensured by various setting options for parameters and service functions. The
performance of the system is easily monitored due to the numerous measured data and above all the
graphic visualization of the data. Operating the system’s regulator is subsequently described in detail.
Menu diagrams clarify the selection options here and provide an overall summary of the regulator’s
navigation.
3.1
Basic Menu
Use the (UP) or (DOWN) buttons to browse
through the menu.
Select the individual subdirectories with the OK button.
To protect against unintentional changes to the
regulator functions, all directories in the ‘Service’
menu have a "child-proof lock". Press the OK and
Menu button simultaneously for 2 seconds to open
these directories.
Press the OK button for 2 seconds to select or change
a setting.
Press the Menu button to return to a previous menu.
*) The
'Clocks' submenu can only be opened if one or
more clocks have been previously activated under
Functions!!!
**) The
Links
subdirectory is only displayed in the menu
if selected functions must be linked!!!
3.2
Measuring Values Menu
All measuring values recorded by the regulator are displayed in the 'Measuring values' submenu. After
opening the menu, the current measuring values are listed as numerical values.
The measured data saved in the integrated data logger can also be graphically displayed. The
temperature progressions in the last 15 days can be displayed in the temperatures. Graphics of the
operating hours both for the last 15 days and the last 13 months are available for evaluating the pump
running times. Radiation, power and flow rate values have graphics covering the last 15 days, last 13
months, last 5 years and also an annual overview.
The operating hours of the outputs used are recorded during the entire running time and are
continually added up (“
Σ
”). In addition, the user can record the operating hours for an arbitrary time
period (“
Δ
”) and then reset them. Select the value of the operating hours “
Δ
” and press the OK button
for 2 seconds to reset the operating hours.
Please note that the summed up displays for operating hours, flow rate and amount of heat do
not reset to 0 after 99´999. Instead, for storage space reasons, they reset after 15´000 h
(operating hours), 15´000kWh (heat quantity) and 50´000l (flow rate).
