1. GENERALITIES
1.1 Description
The application is dedicated to the control and regulation of the Air Handling Units with cross flow recovery heat
exchanger. There are two solutions available:
• COMPACT Control: Responds to minimum requirements and the Standards.
• COMPLETE Control: Integrates the heating and high recovery efficiency functions to the Base solution.
The solution makes use of the large modularity of the c-pro 3 micro SAVE /c-pro 3 kilo SAVE
The c-pro 3 micro SAVE /c-pro 3 kilo SAVE controller has the following I/O:
• Digital outputs: 9
• Digital inputs: 9
• Analogical inputs: 9
• Analogical outputs: 6
Both instruments are equipped with CAN field port and a second RS485 serial interface (Modbus) allows connection to
BMS or EVCO (RICS) supervision systems.
The main control functions managed by the “Complete” solution are:
- Supply fan management
- Return fan management
- Management of the cross flow recovery heat exchanger by-pass damper
- Outside air damper management
- Management damper mixing room
- Management of hot water coil for heating (or a group of 3 electric heaters)
- Management of time bands with ECONOMY and COMFORT working mode
- CO
- Alarms log
- User Menu split in three main levels (User, Installer, Manufacturer), each protected by a different password.
- Multilanguage user menu (English, Italian, French)
probe management for fan control

4. User interface
4.1 Display and keyboard
Both control solutions (compact and complete) use the Vgraph user terminal equipped with LCD graphic display
128x64 pixel and 6 keys. The terminal can be panel mounted (IP 65 with optional gasket) on the unit or remote using
EVCO wall box or in wall recess boxes type “506”. Besides the EVCO front plates it is possible to use BTicino “Living” or
“Light” series plates.
4.1.1 Vgraph interface
The interface is connected via CAN to the controller
The keyboard has 6 keys for page navigation and editing values, with the following meaning:
- UP and DOWN: in editing they modify the parameter values, otherwise they move the cursor. If the DOWN
button is pushed for about 2 seconds the buzzer is silenced.
- LEFT and RIGHT: display of the masks in succession.
- ENTER: in editing it confirms the value, otherwise it sends any control associated to the text where the cursor
is positioned. If an alarm page is being displayed pushing this key for about 2 seconds causes the alarm
reset. If the alarms pages are being displayed a short push moves to the following active alarm.
- ESC: in editing it cancel the modification, otherwise it requests for default page associated to the current
page. If the ESC key is pressed for about 2 seconds the unit is switched on/off.

4.2 List of pages
This paragraph presents the main pages and menus present in the application. The general menu is divided into three
levels: user, installer and manufacturer, there is also a menu for the management of the system clock and some free
access state pages. The menus have the following structure:
⋅ Main Menu
⋅ User Menu (Level 1, level 1 password)
⋅ Installer Menu (Level 2, level 2 password)
o Clock branch installer menu
o Maintenance branch installer menu
o Fans branch installer menu
o Heating elements branch installer menu
o Free-cooling branch installer menu
o Safety device branch installer menu
o Various device branch installer menu
o Default branch installer menu (level 3, only with unit OFF)
⋅ Manufacturer Menu (Level 3, level 3 password, only with unit OFF)
o Configuration branch manufacturer menu
o Fans branch manufacturer menu
o Heating elements branch manufacturer menu
o Outdoor air damper branch manufacturer menu
o Recovery heat exchanger branch manufacturer menu
o Safety device branch manufacturer menu
o Various branch manufacturer menu
4.2.1 Main Menu
The main menu is the access point for all other system menus.
It is possible to display this menu from any point of the user interface pushing the ENTER key for about 2 seconds.
From this page it is possible to enter the other menu using the UP and DOWN keys and pushing the ENTER key to
confirm. By pushing the ESC key on this page it is possible to go back to the main page of the application.
4.2.2 Password
Each menu has an associated level (except clock and log) with a relevant password for accessing to the various
functions present in that menu. Once the correct password has been entered the protected function can be accessed.
Two effects are obtained by entering a password correctly:
⋅ release of the correlated level
⋅ release of the sub-levels
