are accessible both
in the setup (see §Configuration Parameters) and by keeping button pressed for 4 seconds during normal operation.
Synchronised defrost
■
. With
DI2
=DSY and when more units (models AR2-28x3xxx only) are linked to each other as per Fig. 3, synchronised defrosts of all
linked controllers will take place. The first controller which will start defrost, will also get all other controllers synchronised.
Manual or remote defrost start.
If
DFM
=TIM it’s possible to manually start a defrost, by pressing button for 4 seconds. If
DFM
=RTC hold button down
for 4 seconds to display
DH1
, then press button again for 4 seconds to manually start a defrost. Defrost may be also started remotely, if
DI2
=RDS, through
the making of the auxiliary contact DI2.
Defrost type
. Once defrost has started, Compressor and Defrost outputs are controlled according to parameter
DTY
. If
FID
=YES, the evaporator fans are
active during defrost.
Defrost termination
. The actual defrost duration is influenced by a series of parameters.
Time termination
■
:
T2
=NO and
T3
different from 2EU: the evaporator temperature is not monitored and defrost will last as long as time DTO.
Temperature monitoring of one evaporator
■
:
T2
=YES and
T3
different from 2EU. In this case, if the sensor T2 measures the temperature DLI before the time
DTO elapses, defrost will be terminated in advance.
Temperature monitoring of two evaporators
■
:
T2
=YES,
T3
=2EU,
OAU
=2EU. This function is for the control of two independent evaporators and it switches
off the individual heating of the evaporator which gets to temperature
DLI
first, waiting for the second evaporator to get to that temperature before the time
DTO
elapses.
Resuming thermostatic cycle
. When defrost is over, if
DRN
is greater than 0, all outputs will remain off for DRN minutes, in order for the ice to melt completely
and the resulting water to drain. Moreover, if probe T2 is active (
T2
=YES), the fans will re-start when the evaporator gets to a temperature lower than FDD;
Vice versa, if probe T2 is not active (
T2
=NO) or after defrost has come to an end, such condition does not occur by end of the time
FTO
, after
FTO
minutes
have elapsed the fans will be switched on anyway.
Caution: if
DFM=NON or C-H=HEA all defrost functions are inhibited; if DFT=0, automatic defrost functions are excluded. During a high pressure alarm, defrost
is suspended. During defrost, high temperature alarm is bypassed.

Caution: upon changing the SCL value, it is then absolutely necessary to re-configure the parameters relevant to the absolute
and relative temperatures (SPL, SPH, SP, ALA, AHA, etc..).
SPL
