APPLICATION
DST-777 series controls are microprocessor-based electronic
one or two stage setpoint temperature controls, designed to provide
one or two on/off controls (Single-Pole Double-Throw(SPDT) relay
outputs) for residential/commercial heating, cooling, air conditioning
and refrigeration applications.
The DST-777 is equipped with a Dual Digital display with backlit
that provides a constant readout of the sensor temperature and
setpoint simultaneously as well as the other programmed settings. The
front buttons allow the user to easily and accurately select the setpoint
temperature, differential and heating/cooling mode of the operation.
Unique feature allows instant setpoint adjustment without
entering programming mode. This reliable and versatile control has a
very wide setpoint range, an adjustable differential and time delay that
makes it applicable in many different applications. The single stage
models have Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) control logic to prevent
overshoots and undershoots in slow responding systems with large
thermal mass such as pools or slabs. A sensor probe P-01 is supplied
with the control. This solid state temperature sensor probe can be
extended up to 500 feet.

MOUNTING
Mount the DST-777 controller to a suitable surface. Slotted keyholes and
standard holes areprovidedfor mounting purposes.
MOUNTING THE SENSOR:
The sensor P-01 can be extended up to 500 with conventional 18 gauge
wire(or larger to keep additional resistance to a minimum). It is designed to
strap on a pipe orinsert onto a temperature immersion well.
Senors should be strapped to the pipe with cable tie. The flat side of the
sensor should be resting on the pipe. In addition, they should be covered with
a layer of insulation to minimize the effects of ambient temperature for a more
reliable temperature reading.
The sensor P-01 can also be insert onto a 3/8”(10mm) or ½”(12.7mm)
ID temperature well.
Note: Do not run sensor wires parallel to other electrical wiring or telephone
wires. In case there is strong source of electromagnetic interference,
twisted pair 20AWGwire is recommended.

ROUGH-IN WIRING
Loosen the screws on the top and bottom of the enclosure and remove the wiring
covers by swinging them away from the base(grey color) with the edges of the
covers as pivot(see Figure 1).
The base has standard 7/8” (22mm) knockouts which accept common wiring
hardware and conduit fittings. Before removing the knockouts, check the wiring
diagrams and use the chamberwith common voltages.

OPERATION

In normal operating mode, the upper LCD display the current sensor temperature
and thelower LCD display the setpoint temperature. The display is also used with
the Up Arrow and Down Arrow buttons to adjust the setpoint temperature,
differential and heating/cooling modes ofthe operation.

OFF - backlit is turned off.
Auto - backlit is turned on for 30 secs when any button is pressed.
L.E.D. SYSTEM STATUS INDICATION LIGHTS:
RED light indicates that theSPDT relay output is energized.
Heating Mode and Cooling Mode:
set by keypad
Normal Control Mode(ON/OFF Control): SetPWM slide switch to OFF
The control outputs will turn on the equipment when there is a demand for
heating or cooling. When the demand is satisfied, the control outputs will turn
it off.
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Mode(PWM CONTROL): Set PWM slide
switch to ON
The single stage models (DST-777S, DST-777D) offer optimum control by
means of a Pulse Width Modulation(PWM). In PWM, the ON and OFF cycle
vary depending on the difference between the sensor and setpoint
temperature. The bigger difference between the sensor and setpoint
temperature, the longer the relay is switched ON. When the sensor
temperature approaches the setpoint temperature, the ON time become
shorter and shorter. Pulse Width Modulation guarantees precise control
response. This function prevents overshoots and undershoots in systems
with large thermal mass (eg.slabs or pools).
Figure 3 shows the operationof relay on Heating Mode duringPWM cycle:
If the sensor temperature is half of the PWM Differential above the
!
setpoint temperature (in this exampleis: 79°
If the sensor temperature is half of the PWM Differential below the
!
setpoint temperature (in this exampleis: 71 F (75 - 8/2),relay is ON.
If the sensor temperature is between 71 F and 79 F , PWM is in action.

F (75 + 8/2), relayis OFF.

When the sensor temperature crosses the rising slope of the triangle
wave generated by the control, relay is turned ON during the shaded
region. When the sensor temperature passes the falling slope of the
triangle wave, the relay isturned OFF during the unshaded region.
The pulse width (the relay ON time within one cycle) is modulated in
!
according to how far the sensor temperature deviates from the setpoint
temperature.
If sensor temperatureis the same as the setpoint temperature, the pulse
!
width is half (50%) ofthe cycle length.
If the sensor temperature is higher than the setpoint temperature, the
!
pulse width allows shorter periodof ON time
If the sensor temperature is lower than the setpoint temperature, the
!
pulse width allows longer periodof ON time.
If PWM mode is selected,the minimum time delay is disabled.

The principle of operation on Cooling Mode is the same with the shaded

and white area reversed inFigure 3.
Heating Mode
(factory setting):
The control output will turn on when the sensor temperature falls to the setpoint
temperature minus the differential amount. The control output will turn off when the
sensor temperature reaches the setpoint temperature. For example, if setpoint =
68F, Differential =3F, then output is on at65F and off at 68F.In other words, when the
heating mode is chosen, the differential is below the setpoint. The relay will deenergize as the temperature risesto the setpoint. Refer to Figure2.
Cooling Mode
:
The control output will turn on when the sensor temperature rises to the setpoint
temperature plus the differential amount. The control output will turn off when the
sensor temperature reaches the setpoint temperature. For example, if setpoint =
75F, Differential = 2F, then output is on at 77F and off at 75F. In other words, when
cooling mode is chosen, the differential is above the setpoint. The relay will deenergize as the temperature fallsto the setpoint.
The control output turned onmeans:
From the isolated SPDT relay output, “NO” are normally open contacts which close
and “NC” are normally closedcontacts which open when thecontrol output is on.

Time
Anti-Short Cycle Delay: set by keypad
Anti-Short Cycle Delay can be set to ensure the output relay remains off for up
to 20 minutes (default is 0 mins) after relay is de-energized. This is adjustable
from 0 to 20 min with 1 minute increments. In other words, this function
establishes the minimum time that the output relay remains de-energized
before the next on-cycle. It does not allow the output relay to re-energize until
the programmed time delay has elapsed. The delay is activated when the
control is first turned on, but can be skipped within the first 3 seconds by
pressing the “SET” key onceand go to normal operating mode (Note:SET key
at this stage will not perform any other function except terminating the time
delay).
Anti-Short Cycle Delay is available only whenPWM is off .
When the delay is activated, the Upper LCD shows the current temperature
and the lower LCD shows blinking “AC” which stands forAnti-Cycle. Also, in
case there is a demand forheating/cooling, the red LED for relay outputwill be
blinking indicating that anti-cycle featureprevent relay from energizing.
