Introduction
Application
The AK-CC 210B is dedicated for “plug-in cabinets” in supermarkets.
Principle
The AK-CC 210B controls the temperature in the cabinet based on
the measurement from a single sensor – Sair.
This sensor can be placed in the cold airflow after the evaporator
or in the warm airflow before the evaporator, depending on the
construction and usage of the cabinet.
Danfoss
Sair
A measurement of the defrost temperature can be obtained
directly through the use of an S5 sensor or indirectly through the
use of the Sair measurement.
Relays: the first 3 relays are dedicated for Refrigeration, Defrost
and Light, respectively. The usage of relay 4 is selected by the
application setting, and can be Alarm, Fan, Rail heat, Condenser
fan or Compressor 2.
The different applications are described on page 6.
Advantages
• Many applications in the same unit
• The controller has integrated refrigeration-technical functions, so
that it can replace a whole collection of thermostats and timers
• Buttons and seal imbedded in the front
• Alarm monitoring of condenser temperature with compressor
stop protection.
• Sealed relays for use with R290 refrigerants
• Can control two compressors
• Easy to remount data communication
• Quick set-up
• Two temperature references
• Digital inputs for various functions
• Clock function with super cap back-up
• Factory calibration that will guarantee a better measuring
accuracy than stated in the standard EN ISO 23953-2 without
subsequent calibration (Pt 1000 ohm sensor)

Operation
Operation - Sensors
One thermostat sensor – Sair – can be connected to the controller,
and the relevant application defines the placement.
It can be placed in the air before the evaporator or in the airflow
after the evaporator. The latter is mainly used where there is a risk
of too low temperature at the products.
Sair
Sair
Defrost sensor
The best signal concerning the evaporator’s temperature
is obtained from a defrost sensor mounted directly on the
evaporator. Here the signal may be used by the defrost function,
so that the shortest and most energy-saving defrost can take
place.
If a defrost sensor is not required, defrost can be stopped based on
time, or Sair can be selected.
Condenser temperature sensor
A condenser temperature sensor – Sc – can be used for monitoring
the temperature on the condenser. Depending on settings, alarms
can be generated and other actions, including safety stop of
compressor, can be initiated based on this temperature.
Condenser temperature alarms and actions
An alarm warning can be activated when the temperature gets
above a set Condenser Alarm limit and a critical alarm can be
activated at a higher Condenser Block Alarm limit. At this critical
level, different actions can be initiated e.g. turning off the light
in the cabinet, turning off the compressor, or both. The wanted
action is defined by parameter "P92".
Compressors can be permanently stopped if a defined number of
critical alarms occur within a defined time period. If the number
of events exceeds the setting in parameter "P94" within a period
defined in "P93", the last event will always include a compressor
stop, together with other actions defined in "P92".
This state requires a manual reset before the compressor can start
again.
User Guide | Controller for temperature control AK-CC 210B, SW 1.0x
Control of two compressors
This control is used for controlling two compressors of the same
size. The principle for control is that one of the compressors
connects at ½ the differential of the thermostat, and the other at
the full differential. When the thermostat cuts in, the compressor
with the fewest operating hours is started. The other compressor
will only start after a set time delay, so that the load will be divided
between them. The time delay has a higher priority than the
temperature.
When the air temperature has dropped by half the differential, one
of the compressors will stop, while the other will continue working
and not stop until the required temperature is achieved.
The compressors used must be of a type that is capable of starting
up against a high pressure.
Change of temperature reference
In an impulse appliance, for example, used for various product
groups the temperature reference is changed easily with a contact
signal on a digital input. The signal changes the normal thermostat
setpoint by a predefined value. At the same time the high and low
alarm limits will be displaced with the same value.
Night setback
The thermostat reference can be displayed with an offset at night.
The alarm limit value will be changed with the same value as the
night offset. The change will only be applied for positive night
offset.
Digital inputs
There are two digital inputs, both of which can be used for the
following functions:
- Case cleaning
- Door contact function with alarm
- Starting a defrost
- Coordinated defrost (DO2 only)
- Night setback
- Change-over between two temperature reference
- Report state of digital input via data communication
Case cleaning function
This function makes it easy to steer the refrigeration appliance
through a cleaning phase. Via three pushes on a switch you
change from one phase to the next phase.
The first push stops the refrigeration – the fans keep working.
”Later”: The next push stops the fans
”Still later”: The next push restarts refrigeration
The different situations can be followed on the display.
On the network, a cleaning alarm is transmitted to the system unit.
This alarm can be ”logged” so that proof of the sequence of events
is provided.

2÷÷Off
3++°C
Door contact function
In cold rooms and frost rooms the door switch can switch the light
on and off, start and stop the refrigeration and give alarm if the
door has remained open for too long.
Defrost
Depending on the application, you may choose between the
following defrost methods:
Natural: Here the fans are kept operating during defrost
Electric: The heating element is activated
Hot gas: The defrost output is used to control a solenoid that lets
the hot gas flow through the evaporator. The compressor
is kept running to generate hot gas.
User Guide | Controller for temperature control AK-CC 210B, SW 1.0x
Start of defrost
A defrost can be started in different ways:
Interval: Defrost is started at fixed time intervals,
e.g. every eighth hour
Refrigeration
time: Defrost is started at fixed refrigeration time intervals. In other words, a low need for
refrigeration will ”postpone” the coming defrost.
Schedule: Here defrost can be started at fixed times of the
day and night. However, max. 6 times.
Contact: Defrost is started with a contact signal on a digital
input.
Network: The signal for defrost is received from a system unit
via the data communication.
S5 temp In 1:1 systems the efficiency of the evaporator can
be followed. Icing-up will start a defrost.
Manual: An extra defrost can be activated from the
controller’s lower-most button.
(Though not for application 4).
All the mentioned methods can be used at random – if just one of
them is activated a defrost will be started.
Coordinated defrost
There are two ways in which coordinated defrost can be arranged.
Either with wire connections between the controllers or via data
communication.
Max. 15
Wire connections
One of the controllers is defined to be the controlling unit and
a battery module may be fitted in it so that the clock is ensured
back-up. When a defrost is started, all the other controllers will
follow suit and likewise start a defrost. After the defrost, the
individual controllers will move into waiting position. When all are
in waiting position there will be a change-over to refrigeration.
(If just one in the group demands defrost, the others will follow
suit).
Defrost via data communication
All controllers are fitted with a data communication module,
and via the override function from a gateway the defrost can be
coordinated.
Defrost on demand
1. Based on refrigeration time
When the aggregate refrigeration time has passed a set time, a
defrost will be started.
2. Based on temperature
The controller will constantly follow the temperature at S5.
Between two defrosts, the S5 temperature will become lower
the more the evaporator ices up (the compressor operates for a
longer time and pulls the S5 temperature further down). When
the temperature passes a set allowed variation, the defrost will
be started.
This function can only work in 1:1 systems.
Service request alarm
The controller will register the accumulated on-time in days, and a
limit can be set to activate a “service request alarm” to indicate that
inspection and cleaning of the fan and condenser is imminent.
After doing so, the Runtime counter can be reset and a new period
initiated.
User Guide | Controller for temperature control AK-CC 210B, SW 1.0x
Extra module
• The controller can afterwards be fitted with an insertion module
if the application requires it.
The controller has been prepared with plug, so the module
simply has to be pushed in.
- Battery module
The module guarantees voltage to the controller if the supply
voltage should drop out for more than four hours. The clock
function can thus be protected during a power failure.
- Data communication
If you require operation from a PC, a data communication
module has to be placed in the controller.
• External display
If it is necessary to indicate the temperature on the front of
the refrigeration appliance, a display type EKA 163A can be
mounted. The extra display will show the same information as
the controller's display, but does not incorporate buttons for
operation. If operation from the external display is needed a
display type EKA 164A must be mounted.
Applications
AK-CC 210B is developed for refrigerated plug-in cabinets with
one or 2 compressors.
3 sensors can be connected; Sair, S5 (Defrost termination), and Sc
(Condenser temperature).
The first 3 relays are used for compressor on-off, defrost, and light
while relay 4 is configurable via “o61” application setting. The relay
can be configured for 5 different applications:
1. Alarm relay
2. Evaporator fan control
3. Rail Heat Control
4. Condenser fan control
5. Second compressor control
DI1, and DI2 are flexible Dry Contact inputs that can be configured
for multiple functions via “o02” or “o37” (see settings page 12-13).

Survey of functions
FunctionPara-
Normal display
Normally the temperature value from the thermostat sensor Sair is displayed.Display air (u56)
ThermostatThermostat control
Setpoint
Regulation is based on the set value plus a displacement, if applicable. The value is set
via a push on the centre button.
The set value can be locked or limited to a range with the settings in r02 and r 03.
The reference at any time can be seen in ”u28 Temp. ref”.
Differential
When the temperature is higher than the reference + the set differential, the compressor relay will be cut in. It will cut out again when the temperature comes down to
the set reference.
Setpoint limitation
The controller’s setting range for the setpoint may be narrowed down, so that much
too high or much too low values are not set accidentally - with resulting damages.
To avoid a too high setting of the setpoint, the max. allowable reference value must
be lowered.
To avoid a too low setting of the setpoint, the min. allowable reference value must be
increased.
Correction of the display’s temperature showing
If the temperature at the products and the temperature received by the controller are
not identical, an offset adjustment of the shown display temperature can be carried
out.
Temperature unit
Here you set whether the controller display is to show temperature values in °C or in °F.
Correction of signal from Sair
Compensation possibility through long sensor cable
Start / stop of refrigeration
With this setting refrigeration can be started, stopped or a manual override of the
outputs can be allowed.
Start / stop of refrigeration can also be accomplished with the external switch function connected to a DI input.
Stopped refrigeration will give a ”Standby alarm”.
Night setback value
The thermostat’s reference will be the setpoint plus this value when the controller
changes over to night operation. (Select a negative value if there is to be cold accumulation.)
Activation of reference displacement
When the function is changed to ON, the thermostat reference will be displaced by
the value in r40. Activation can also take place via input DI1 or DI2 (defined in o02 or
o37).

AlarmAlarm settings
The controller can give alarm in different situations. When there is an alarm, all the
light-emitting diodes (LED) will flash on the controller front panel, and the alarm relay
will cut in.
Alarm delay (short alarm delay)
If one of the two limit values is exceeded, a timer function will commence. The alarm
will not become active until the set time delay has been passed. The time delay is set
in minutes.
Time delay for door alarm
The time delay is set in minutes.
The function is defined in o02 or in o37.
Time delay for cooling (long alarm delay)
This time delay is used during start-up, during defrost and immediately after a defrost.
There will be change-over to the normal time delay (A03) when the temperature has
dropped below the set upper alarm limit. The time delay is set in minutes.
Upper alarm limit
Here you set the alarm limit for the high temperature alarm. The limit is set in °C
(absolute value).
During night condition, the limit value will be changed with the same value as the
night offset. The change will only be applied for positive night offset.
The limit value will also be changed in connection with reference displacement r39.
Regardless, whether this is positive or negative.
Lower alarm limit
Here you set the alarm limit for low temperature alarms. The limit value is set in °C
(absolute value).
During night condition, the limit will remain unchanged, while a reference
displacement r39, will increase or lower the limit with the value given by r40.
Delay of a DI1 alarm
A cut-out/cut-in input will result in alarm when the time delay has been passed. The
function is defined in o02.
Delay of a DI2 alarm
A cut-out/cut-in input will result in alarm when the time delay has been passed. The
function is defined in o37
Condenser alarm limit
Setpoint for the condenser temperature alarm, the warning level without compressor stop. The alarm will clear when the condenser temperature is decreased with the
value defined in parameter A78.
Condenser block alarm limit
Setpoint for the condenser block alarm. Activation of this alarm can trigger an action
– light off, compressor stop or both (see parameter P92)
The alarm will clear when the condenser temperature is decreased with 2 times the
value defined in parameter A78.
Condenser alarm delay
Delay for the condenser block alarm and potential action.
The delay starts when the condenser temperature exceeds the limit in parameter A54.
Condenser alarm difference
Difference band below the condenser alarm temperature settings (A37 and A54) for
clearing the alarms.
CompressorCompressor control
The compressor relay works in conjunction with the thermostat. When the thermostat calls for refrigeration the compressor relay will be operated.
Running times
To prevent irregular operation, values can be set for the time the compressor is to run
once it has been started, and for how long it at least has to be stopped.
The running times are not observed when defrosts start.
Min. ON time (in minutes)c01Min. On time
Min. OFF time (in minutes)c02Min. Off time
Time delay for couplings of two compressors
Settings indicate the time that has to elapse from the first relay cuts in and until the
next relay has to cut in.
With data communication the importance of the individual alarms can be
defined. Setting is carried out in the
“Alarm destinations” menu.
User Guide | Controller for temperature control AK-CC 210B, SW 1.0x
The LED on the controller’s front will show whether refrigeration is in progress.Comp Relay
Here you can read the status of the
compressor relay, or you can forcecontrol the relay in the ”Manual
control” mode
DefrostDefrost control
The controller contains a timer function that is zeroset after each defrost start.
The timer function will start a defrost if/when the interval time is passed.
The timer function starts when voltage is connected to the controller, but it is displaced the first time by the setting in d05.
If there is power failure, the timer value will be saved and continue from here when
the power returns.
This timer function can be used as a simple way of starting defrosts, but it will always
act as safety defrost if one of the subsequent defrost starts is not received.
The controller also contains a real-time clock. By means of settings of this clock and
times for the required defrost times, defrost can be started at fixed times of the day.
If there is a risk of power failure for periods longer than four hours, a battery module
should be mounted in the controller.
Defrost start can also be accomplished via data communication, via contact signals or
manual start-up.
All starting methods will function in the controller. The different functions have to be
set, so that defrosts do not ”come tumbling” one after the other.
Defrost can be accomplished with electricity or hot gas.
The actual defrost will be stopped based on time or temperature with a signal from a
temperature sensor.
Defrost method
Here you set whether defrost is to be accomplished with electricity, gas or "non".
During defrost the defrost relay will be cut in.
Defrost stop temperature
The defrost is stopped at a given temperature which is measured with a sensor (the
sensor is defined in d10).
The temperature value is set.
Interval between defrost starts
The function is zeroset and will start the timer function at each defrost start. When
the time has expired the function will start a defrost.
The function is used as a simple defrost start, or it may be used as a safeguard if the
normal signal fails to appear.
If master/slave defrost without clock function or without data communication is used,
the interval time will be used as max. time between defrosts.
If a defrost start via data communication does not take place, the interval time will be
used as max. time between defrosts.
When there is defrost with clock function or data communication, the interval time
must be set for a somewhat longer period of time than the planned one, as the
interval time will otherwise start a defrost which a little later will be followed by the
planned one.
In connection with power failure the interval time will be maintained, and when the
power returns, the interval time will continue from the maintained value.
The interval time is not active when set to 0.
Max. defrost duration
This setting is a safety time so that the defrost will be stopped if there has not already
been a stop based on temperature or via coordinated defrost.
Time staggering for defrost cut-ins during start-up
The function is only relevant if you have several refrigeration appliances or groups
where you want the defrost to be staggered in relation to one another. The function is
furthermore only relevant if you have chosen defrost with interval start (d03).
The function delays the interval time d03 by the set number of minutes, but it only
does it once, and this at the very first defrost taking place when voltage is connected
to the controller.
The function will be active after each and every power failure.
Drip-off time
Here you set the time that is to elapse from a defrost and until the compressor is to
start again. (The time when water drips off the evaporator).
Delay of fan start after defrost
Here you set the time that is to elapse from compressor start after a defrost and until
the fan may start again. (The time when water is “tied” to the evaporator).
User Guide | Controller for temperature control AK-CC 210B, SW 1.0x
Fan start temperature
The fan may also be started a little earlier than mentioned under “Delay of fan start
after defrost”, if the defrost sensor S5 registers a lower value than the one set here.
Fan cut-in during defrost
Here you can set whether fan is to operate during defrost.
0: Stopped (Runs during pump down)
1: Running (stopped during "fan delay")
2: Running during pump down and defrost. After that it is stopped.
Defrost sensor
Here you define the defrost sensor.
0: None, defrost is based on time
1: S5
2: Sair
Pumpdown delay
Set the time where the evaporator is emptied of refrigerant prior to the defrost.
Defrost on demand – aggregate refrigeration time
Here the refrigeration time allowed without defrosts is set. If the time is passed, a
defrost will be started.
With setting = 0 the function is cut out.
Defrost on demand – S5 temperature
The controller will follow the effectivity of the evaporator, and via internal calculations and measurements of the S5 temperature it will be able to start a defrost when
the variation of the S5 temperature becomes larger than required.
Here you set how large a slide of the S5 temperature can be allowed. When the value
is passed, a defrost will start.
The function can only be used in 1:1 systems when the evaporating temperature
will become lower to ensure that the air temperature will be maintained. In central
systems the function must be cut out.
With setting = 20 the function is cut out
Max. duration of -d- in the display
Controls the readout of "-d-" after defrost, so that "-d-" is shown until the temperature
is ok, the set delay has expired, or a temperature alarm becomes active.
If you wish to see the temperature at the defrost sensor, push the controller’s lowermost button.
If you wish to start an extra defrost, push the controller’s lowermost button for four
seconds.
You can stop an ongoing defrost in the same way.

The function stops the fans in an error situation, so that they will not provide power
to the appliance. If the defrost sensor registers a higher temperature than the one set
here, the fans will be stopped. There will be re-start at 2 K below the setting.
The function is not active during a defrost or start-up after a defrost.
With setting +50°C the function is interrupted.

MiscellaneousMiscellaneous
Delay of output signal after start-up
Start-up after a power failure the controller’s functions can be delayed so that overloading of the electricity supply network is avoided.
Here you can set the time delay.
Digital input signal - DI1
The controller has a digital input 1 which can be used for one of the following
functions:
Off: The input is not used
1. Status display of a contact function
2. Door function: When the input is open it signals that the door is open. The
refrigeration and the fans are stopped. When the time setting in “A4” is passed, an
alarm will be given and refrigeration will be resumed.
3. Door alarm: When the input is open it signals that the door is open. When the
time setting in “A4” is passed, there will be an alarm.
4. Defrost: The function is started with a pulse signal. The controller will register
when the DI input is activated. The controller will then start a defrost cycle. If the
signal is to be received by several controllers it is important that ALL connections
are mounted the same way (DI to DI and GND to GND).
5. Main switch: Regulation is carried out when the input is short-circuited, and
regulation is stopped when the input is put in pos. OFF.
6. Night operation: When the input is short-circuited, there will be regulation for
night operation.
7. Reference displacement when DI1 is short-circuited. Displacement with “r40”.
8. Separate alarm function: Alarm will be given when the input is short-circuited.
9. Separate alarm function: Alarm will be given when the input is opened. (For 8
and 9 the time delay is set in A27)
10. Case cleaning: The function is started with a pulse signal. Cf. also description on
page 4.
If the controller is built into a network with data communication, it must have an
address, and the master gateway of the data communication must then know this
address.
These settings can only be made when a data communication module has been
mounted in the controller and the installation of the data communication cable has
been finished.
This installation is mentioned in a separate document “RC8AC”.
The address is set between 1 and 60 (119), gateway determined.o03
The address is sent to the gateway when the menu is set in pos. ON
IMPORTANT: Before you set o04, you MUST set o61. Otherwise you will be transmitting incorrect data.
Access code 1 (Access to all settings)
If the settings in the controller are to be protected with an access code you can set a
numerical value between 0 and 100. If not, you can cancel the function with setting 0.

Normally a Pt 1000 sensor with great signal accuracy is used. But you can also use
a sensor with another signal accuracy. That may either be a PTC 1000 sensor (1000
ohm) or an NTC sensor (5000 Ohm at 25°C).
All the mounted sensors must be of the same type.

Max. standby time after coordinated defrost
When a controller has completed a defrost it will wait for a signal which tells that the
refrigeration may be resumed. If this signal fails to appear for one reason or another,
the controller will itself start the refrigeration when this standby time has elapsed.
Digital input signal - D2
The controller has a digital input 2 which can be used for one of the following functions:
Off: The input is not used.
1. Status display of a contact function
2. Door function: When the input is open it signals that the door is open. The refrigeration and the fans are stopped. When the time setting in “A4” is passed, an alarm
will be given and refrigeration resumed.
3. Door alarm: When the input is open it signals that the door is open. When the
time setting in “A4” is passed an alarm will be given.
4. Defrost: The function is started with a pulse signal. The controller will register

2 = Cleaning with stopped fans. All outputs are Off.
If the function is controlled by a signal at the DI1 or DI2 input, the relevant status can
be seen here in the menu.
Selection of application
The controller can be defined in various ways. Here you set which of the 5
applications is required. On page 6 you can see a survey of applications.
This menu can only be set when regulation is stopped, i.e. “r12” is set to 0.
User Guide | Controller for temperature control AK-CC 210B, SW 1.0x
Transfer a set of presettings to the controller
It is possible to select a quick setting of a number of parameters. It depends on
whether an application or a room is to be controlled and whether defrost is to be
stopped based on time or based on temperature. The survey can be seen on page 22.
This menu can only be set when regulation is stopped, i.e. “r12” is set to 0.
After the setting, the value will return to 0. Any subsequent adjustment/setting of
parameters can be made, as required.
Access code 2 (Access to adjustments)
There is access to adjustments of values, but not to configuration settings. If the settings in the controller are to be protected with an access code you can set a numerical value between 0 and 100. If not, you can cancel the function with setting 0. If the
function is used, access code 1 (o05) must also be used.
Save as factory setting
With this setting you save the controller’s actual settings as a new basic setting (the
earlier factory settings are overwritten).
Runtime readout
Readout of the accumulated controller runtime in days (powered up and main switch
on).
Can be cleared or adjusted when r12 Main switch is off.

Fault messageAlarms
In an error situation the LEDs on the front will flash and the alarm relay will be activated. If you push the top button in this situation you can see the alarm report in the
display. If there are more keep on pushing to see them.
There are two kinds of error reports - it can either be an alarm occurring during the
daily operation, or there may be a defect in the installation.
A-alarms will not become visible until the set time delay has expired.
E-alarms, on the other hand, will become visible the moment the error occurs.
(An A alarm will not be visible as long as there is an active E alarm).
Here are the messages that may appear:1 = alarm

Operating status(Measurement)
The controller goes through some regulating situations where it is just waiting for
the next point of the regulation. To make these “why is nothing happening” situations
EKC State:
(Shown in all menu displays)
visible, you can see an operating status on the display. Push briefly (1s) the upper button. If there is a status code, it will be shown on the display.
The individual status codes have the following meanings:
S0: Regulating0
S1: Waiting for end of the coordinated defrost1
S2: When the compressor is operating it must run for at least x minutes.2
S3: When the compressor is stopped, it must remain stopped for at least x minutes.3
S4: The evaporator drips off and waits for the time to run out4
S10: Refrigeration stopped by main switch. Either with r12 or a DI-input10
S11: Refrigeration stopped by thermostat11

PS: Password required. Set password
*) Emergency cooling will take effect when there is lack of signal from the Sair sensor. The regulation will continue with a registered average cut-in
frequency. There are two registered values – one for day operation and one for night operation.
Warning ! Direct start of compressors *
To prevent compressor breakdown, parameter c01 and c02 should be set according to suppliers requirements or in general:
Hermetic Compressors c02 min. 5 minutes
Semihermetic Compressors c02 min. 8 minutes and c01 min. 2 to 5 minutes (motor from 5 – 15 kW )
* ) Direct activating of solenoid valves does not require settings different from factory (0)

Operation
Display
The values will be shown with three digits, and with a setting you
can determine whether the temperature is to be shown in °C or in °F.
Light-emitting diodes (LED) on front panel
The other LEDs on the front panel will light up when the belonging relay is activated.
= Refrigeration
= Defrost
= Fan running
The light-emitting diodes will flash when there is an alarm.
In this situation you can download the error code to the display
and cancel/sign for the alarm by giving the top knob a brief push.
Defrost
During defrost a –d- is shown in the display.
After defrost is finished, the readout of –d- will be continued until
one of the following conditions are met:
- The temperature is OK (below the cut-in limit)
- A high temperature alarm becomes active
- The delay set with the d40 parameter expires
- The regulation is stopped with “Main switch”
The buttons
When you want to change a setting, the upper and the lower
buttons will give you a higher or lower value depending on the
button you are pushing. But before you change the value, you
must have access to the menu. You obtain this by pushing the
upper button for a couple of seconds - you will then enter the column with parameter codes. Find the parameter code you want to
change and push the middle buttons until value for the parameter
is shown. When you have changed the value, save the new value
by once more pushing the middle button.
Examples:
Set menu
1. Push the upper button until a parameter r01 is shown.
2. Push the upper or the lower button and find the parameter you
want to change.
3. Push the middle button until the parameter value is shown.
4. Push the upper or the lower button and select the new value.
5. Push the middle button again to freeze the value.
Set temperature
1. Push the middle button until the temperature value is shown
2. Push the upper or the lower button and select the new value
3. Push the middle button again to conclude the setting.
Reading the temperature at defrost sensor
• Push the lower button shortly
Manual start or stop of a defrost
• Push the lower button for four seconds.
(Though not for application 4).
Get a good start
With the following procedure you can start regulation very quickly:
1 Open parameter r12 and stop the regulation (in a new and not
previously set unit, r12 will already be set to 0 which means
stopped regulation.)
2 Select application dependent connections based on the
drawings on page 7.
3 Open parameter o61 and set the electric connection number in
it.
4 Now select one of the preset settings from the table on page 20.
5 Open parameter o62 and set the number for the array of
presettings. The few selected settings will now be transferred to
the menu.
6 Open parameter r12 and start the regulation
7 Go through the survey of factory settings. The values in the grey
cells are changed according to your choice of settings. Make any
necessary changes in the respective parameters.
8 For network. Set the address in o03 and then install on the
system unit by scanning, or for Lon via setting o04.
• Push the upper button shortly.
If there are several alarm codes they are found in a rolling stack.
Push the uppermost or lowermost button to scan the rolling
stack.

Data communication
The controller is available in several versions where data
communication can be carried out with one of the following
systems: MODBUS or LON-RS485.
If data communication is used, it is important that the installation
of the data communication cable is performed correctly.
See separate literature No. RC8AC…
Electric noise
Cables for sensors, DI inputs and data communication must be
kept separate from other electric cables:
- Use separate cable trays
- Keep a distance between cables of at least 10 cm
- Long cables at the DI input should be avoided
The following controllers can be connected
up in this way:
AK-CC 210, AK-CC 250, AK-CC 450,
AK-CC 550 and AK-CC55.
Max. 10.
