INSTALLATION

The operator panel is either mounted 
onto the TAC Xenta unit by means of the 
snap-in connector, or fl ush-mounted in 
the cabinet front or used as a hand-held 
terminal.

When connecting the operator panel 
there are two alternatives:

Use the modular jack on the front of 
the TAC Xenta and on the back of the 
OP. This requires a special cable, for 
both power supply and communica-
tion. Such a cable (about 1.5 m or 4.9 
ft.) is included. If another cable is used, 
its length should not exceed 10 m (33 
ft.).

If the connection is done to the comms 
line, use the screw terminals on the 
back of the OP, labelled 1-4.
Terminals 1 and 2 are used for com-
munication and terminals 3 and 4 for 
24 V AC or DC.
The polarity is important only for the 
DC connection.

OPERATOR PANEL

Values can be read and/or altered from 
the operator panel (see fi gure 1). The 
operator panel can be mounted on the 
front of the controller, on a cabinet front 
or used as a hand held panel.

All values are displayed with explanatory 
texts. Finding and altering a setting re-
quires a minimum of key operations since 
all values are arranged in logical order.

Authorization check

The system manager may choose to 
use an access code to limit access to the 
program.

List of contents

The TAC Xenta controller’s program func-
tions are presented as a list of contents, 
with the most common daily functions at 
the top (see fi gure below).

The operator steps up and down in the 
list by means of the arrow buttons.

IDs 

(The top line of the list of contents 
displays the current unit’s full ID together 
with a short four letter ID which is shown 
in all displays. To change object (AHU, 
boiler etc.), press “Home” and select a 
new object in the presented list.

To select and show a function

The function of the upper line in the list 
of contents is shown when pressing the 
“Enter” button. The displayed data are 
dynamically updated.

To show the next/previous function, press 
the arrow buttons. To return to the list of 
contents just press the “Home” button.

To alter a value

The operator can move the cursor 
between the alterable values with the 
“Enter” button. The value can then be 
increased, decreased or toggled by means 
of the “+” or “–” buttons. The arrow 
buttons are used to present the next/pre-
vious function.
