Section 11.1 Modbus registers
•
Away
: The controller monitors an expanded dead zone in the

This helps to save energy. The dead zone can be adjusted via the bus by
using a parameter (Holding Register 4x00202) or via the controller’s settings
menu.
•
Flush
: Cooling and heating controls are in full operation (100%) in the
Flush
mode. The
Flush
mode can be activated via the bus by using a parameter.
•
Test mode
: The
Test mode
has to be activated if commissioning is
performed remotely. The
Test mode
allows controlling the fan and the
cooling and heating valves by using parameters.

Alarms received through the bus
The controller can send indicative alarm signals also through the bus. These
alarm signals do not affect the controller operation but do indicate a failure
detected in the system.

failure in the incoming or outgoing water temperature sensor.
