Seasonal Shut Down
During seasonal shut-down or alternatively shut-down for maintenance of the electrical parts and/or the plumb-
ing, the humidifier should be placed out-of-service.
NOTE: the water cylinder should be emptied before shutting down the humidifier, to prevent corrosion
of the electrodes.
Follow these instructions:
•
Press and hold the manual drain switch until the
steam cylinder is empty, or use the Manual Drain
procedure listed under “Activating Manual Drain”;
•
Turn off the On/Off (I/O) rocker switch on the side of
the humidifier, and disconnect power from the humidi-
fier;
•
Shut off the water to the humidifier.
In the event of malfunction of the drain valve, the
cylinder can be emptied manually by lifting it out of the
drain manifold and pouring the water into the bottom
drain pan. For SMP026 and larger humidifiers, use the
manual drain device on the manifold, pulling the
manual drain tab until it releases (see sketch at right).
The Remote Control
A hand-held infra-red remote control is available for the STE. This device
permits programming the humidifier(s) from across the room and also makes available
buttons with specific functions.
NOTE:
To use the remote control, parameter C2 must be set on each humidifier to give
it an access code so that the remote control can address it. If all humidifiers in range of
the remote control have the same access code, then they will respond simultaneously
to commands from the remote control. Setting C2 to 0 on the humidifier will allow the
remote control to be used without the need of a code.
To use the remote control, aim it at the humidifier and press ENABLE. All the
humidifiers in range will display their activation codes. If a humidifier has its C2
parameter set to 0, it will skip this step and display the first parameter.
To program a humidifier, enter its access code into the remote control. If successful,
the humidifier will display the first parameter.
To program main parameters, simply press the + or - button on the remote control of the
parameter you want to modify and the humidifier will display that parameter code.
Press the SEL button on the remote control and the value will be displayed. Modify the
value by using the

are saved when you exit the programming phase.
To program other parameters, press any + or - button on a parameter, then use the SEL and

buttons on the
remote control in the same way as the buttons on the front of the humidifier controller.
To exit the programming phase and save the modifications made to the parameters, press the PRG button.
To exit without saving the modifications, press the ESC button.
To exit the programming phase without confirming the modifications made:
•
do not press any button for 60 seconds, if the parameter code is displayed;
•
do not press any button for 120 seconds, if the value of the parameter is displayed.
