4.7.3.  Probe Assignment

This section explain how to select temperature 
probes  that  are  used  to  measure  the  room 
temperature and how to assign temperature 
probes that are used to control/ monitor the 
outputs of the controller.

Room Temperature Sensors:

Most cooling outputs of the controller (mist-
ing output, tunnel fans, stir fans, etc.) operate 
according to the average temperature in the 
room. The user must choose what tempera-
ture probes are used to measure this room 
temperature.

Probe Set 2:

The selection of probes that is used to mea-
sure the room temperature can be changed in 
tunnel ventilation to compensate for changes 
in airflow patterns that can distort the room 
temperature calculation. If the second probe

Heater 1 Probe Assignment

2. Assign the desired temperature probes to 
the selected output: select “ “ to assign a 
probe or select “- - -“ for probes that are not 
assigned to the output. 

A template is available at the end of this 
manual to write down your selection of 
sensors.

set is enabled in the Installation Setup (sec. 
4.5), you must assign temperature probes to 
this second probe set. 

1. Select:

  Main menu 

  Setup *
  Probe Assignment
  Select the desired output**:

 

 

- Room;

 

 

- Probe Set 2;

 

 

- Heaters 1-4 ;

 

 

- Heaters 1-4 Hi fire (opt.) ;

 

 

- 0-10V output;

 

 

- Natural ventilation curtain 1-2;

*  A password may be required to access this menu.
**  Only outputs that are enabled in the Setup menu 

are displayed (sec. 4.5). 

4.8.  Relay Assignment

4.8.1.  Assigning Relays to the Out-
puts

You must assign On/Off relays to each output 
of the controller.  Use provided output stick-
ers to identify the function of each relay on 
the faceplate of the controller.

1. Select:

Fan Stage 6 Relay Assignment

2. Select  a  relay  then  set  its  status  as  fol-
lows: 

  

:  The relay is assigned to the output;

- - - 

:  The  relay  is  not  assigned  to  the 

output;

TMR  :  The  load  connected  to  the  relay 

will  run  in  timer  mode  (available 
on fan stage outputs only).

Relays 21-52 correspond to the relays of 
an external relay panel (RP-16 or RP-32). 

3. Proceed in similar fashion to assign relays 
to each output in use: 

Fan stages 1-12 —

 Fan stages can either ac-

tivate regular on/off relays and/or timer-based 
relays. When a timer-based relay is assigned 
to a fan stage, the relay runs in timer mode 
when the fan stage is active. This is useful 
to operate misting unit s for instance. To use 
timer-based  relays,  set  the  relay  status  to 
“TMR” (see example above). *

Note that stage 1 

cannot use timer-based relays.

Tunnel 1-2 / Vent door (inlet) 1-2 / 

Natural 

ventilation  curtains  1-2  —

  Relays  7-8  and 

relays 15-20 have specially been designed for 
the connection of actuators. When actuators 
are connected to these relays, their open and 
close  relays  can  never  be  activated  at  the 
same time. 

Feeding output —

 Feeder relays are used to 

stop feeders when a feeder run time alarm 
occurs.  These  normally  closed  relays  open 
when the alarm condition is detected. *

This 

parameter is accessible if the feeder alarm condition 

is enabled (sec. 11.3).

Backup relay —

 The backup relay box relay is 

a normally closed relay which opens in case 
of a power failure. 

Shutoff  fans  in  natural  ventilation  —

  It  is 

possible  to  shutoff  some  fan  output  when 
the  controller  enters  in  natural  ventilation  
(on/off fans and variable fans). Refer to the 
natural ventilation section of this manual to 
get further information about this feature.

Heating stages 1-4 & Hi Fire 1-4 (opt.);

Misting output;

Cool cell output;

Clock outputs 1-2;

Light output.

Worksheet showing default relay assign-
ment and empty templates are available
