1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Product description
Vcolor 539 is a split controller with a capacitive TFT touch-screen colour graphic display (5” or 7") for flush panel fitting and total
management of food processing cabinets or rooms for different types of products such as meat, charcuterie and cheese.
It has manual conservation cycles and automatic aging cycles (up to 30 sequential phases) whose duration, temperature, humidity and
ventilation can all be fully configured.
It is possible to set automatic air change and pause/work cycles, as well as managing optional sterilisation, oxygenation and smoking
processes either automatically or manually.
Upon request, the controllers can be equipped with Wi-Fi connectivity so it can interact remotely with the unit through the EPoCA®
cloud platform, with the option of starting/stopping working cycles.
Standard 4-20 mA transducers (such as EVHP503) may be used to manage humidity or read the acidity level of a product; alternatively
humidity can be controlled using a dedicated probe T+RH EVTHP500 (RH 5-95% / T -20/80°C).

2 MEASUREMENTS AND INSTALLATION
2.1 Vcolor 539 M user interface measurements
The figure below shows the measurements of the 5-inch user interface; measurements are expressed in mm (inches).
2.2 Vcolor 539 L user interface measurements
The figure below shows the measurements of the 7-inch user interface; measurements are expressed in mm (inches).

2.6 Expansion measurements EVC20P52N9XXX10
The figure below shows the measurements of the 4 relay expansion.
2.7 Installation precautions
- Ensure that the working conditions for the device (operating temperature, humidity, etc.) are within the set limits. See the
section 15 “TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS”.
- Do not install the device close to heat sources (heaters, hot air ducts, etc.), equipment with a strong magnetic field (large
diffusers, etc.), in places subject to direct sunlight, rain, damp, excessive dust, mechanical vibrations or shocks.
- Any metal parts close to the control module must be far enough away so as not to compromise the safety distance.
- In compliance with safety regulations, the device must be installed properly to ensure adequate protection from contact
with electrical parts. All protective parts must be fixed in such a way as to need the aid of a tool to remove them.

3 FIRST-TIME USE
3.1 Operating modes
The controller has the following operating modes:
- “off” (no power to the device);
- “stand-by” (the device is powered but switched off);
- “on” (the device is powered, switched on and awaiting start-up of an operating cycle);
- “run” (the device is powered, switched on and running an operating cycle).
Terminology: “switch on the device” means moving from “stand-by” to “on” mode and “switch off the device” means moving from “on”
to “stand-by” mode.
If there is a power failure, when power is restored the device will return to the mode set before the failure.
3.2 Operating the device
Follow these instructions to operate the device.
1. Install the device as shown in section 2 “MEASUREMENTS AND INSTALLATION”, taking all the precautions mentioned in
paragraph 2.6 “Installation precautions”.
2. Make the electrical connection as shown in sectionErrore. L'origine riferimento non è stata trovata. “ELECTRICAL
CONNECTION”.
3.
Connect the power supply to the device:if parameter E9 is set at 1 (default), the device will show the EVCO splash screen
for 10 seconds; if the parameter is set at 0, a system loading screen will be shown:
E9=1
E9=0
Once loading is complete, the device will display the mode it was in before being powered down:
- On/stand-by screen, press the central area to move to the Home screen;
- the Home screen.
Only manual
To switch the device on, press the central key on the On/stand-by screen; to switch the device off, press the key
on the lower part of the Home screen.
N.B. If the power supply has been cut off long enough to cause a clock error (RTC alarm), it will be necessary to reset the
day and time.
4. When switching on from the settings key on the On/stand-by screen, enter the SET DATE/TIME menu, touch the data
to change and confirm with .
5. From the settings key on the On/stand-by screen, enter the SERVICE menu and from here the PARAMETERS menu.
Enter the password -19 and configure the device as you wish in the order in which the parameters are listed in the table
below. Then check that the remaining parameters have been set in a consistent way. See later sections and in particular
the section PARAMETERS.
