The Quantum™ has the capability of being modified by the user/owner in order to obtain different performance
characteristics. Any modification to the standard default settings may have a severe negative impact on the
operation and performance of the equipment. Any modification to these control settings is the sole responsibility of
the user/owner and Frick® disclaims any liability for the consequences of these modifications. It is possible that the
modification of these settings may cause improper operation and performance that results in property damage,
personal injury or death. It is the responsibility of the user/owner to evaluate and assess the consequences of their
actions prior to modifying the controls for this unit.
OVERVIEW OF OPERATOR INTERFACE
The panel user interface has been designed to allow an
operator to efficiently access and control the operation of
the units. The control panel screen is used for graphic
displays. By pressing a key on the keypad, the labeled or
described function is recognized by the control processor.
The following information is presented to help the operator
interact with the graphic screens and the Quantum™
ACUair® control panel. This manual is intended to
describe all presently available features.
OPERATOR ACCESS
Operator access to this system is through various
screens. A screen is the physical representation of data
on the display. Icons have been used to help an operator
quickly identify functions. An icon is a small graphic
symbol representation. Each screen has a title area. The
title is descriptive of the screen. The current date and time
is shown in this title area. The day of the week, Sunday
(Sun.) through Saturday (Sat.) is displayed. The month of
the year from January (Jan.) to December (Dec.) is
displayed. The day of the month from 1 to 31 and the year
from 0001 to 9999 is displayed. The time displayed is the
current time in 24 hours (military) format. The hours,
minutes and seconds are displayed. The labeled keys on
the panel keypad provide quick access to the operator's
needs. By pressing a labeled key on the keypad, the
corresponding function is recognized. Most of the screens
have screen keys that describe or show a function that is
recognized when the coinciding key found at the right of
the display screen is pressed. The screen keys provide
access to other screens or commands. For easier
viewing, related information is separated into boxes. The
setup and setpoint entry is separated into logical control
components. Setup selection of features and options has
been provided to prevent the operator from unnecessary
viewing and entering of unused control settings. The
required control settings are clearly presented. To further
assist the operator, an on-line help is provided.
Sometimes selections appear differently to indicate that
the feature is unavailable.

performance characteristics. Any modification to the
standard default settings may have a severe negative
impact on the operation and performance of the
equipment. Any modification to these control settings
is the sole responsibility of the user/owner and Frick

The setpoints define the operation and limits of the air
units. Adjustable setpoints are setpoints that an operator
can easily change in the field. These setpoints are stored
in EPROM (non-volatile memory).
NOTE: Adjustable Setpoints are not lost after power is
interrupted. However, we suggest that a list of Adjustable
Setpoints be recorded and stored safely to facilitate
reentry, in case there is a need to return to the original
settings.
1. From an adjustable setpoint screen, select the
[Change Setpoints] key. This positions the
cursor at the first data entry field. The data entry
field that is selected is identifiable by the black
background and white text.
2. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to the
data entry field to be modified.
3. Having selected the setpoint to be changed, the
numerical keys and the decimal key may be used
to enter the new setpoint. Typing a new value will
completely erase the old value.
4. To remove a typing mistake, the left and right
arrow key can be used to position the cursor to
the left of the mistake and then press the
[DELETE] key to erase it.
5. Press the [ENTER] key to input the new data in
the data entry field and to move to the next data
entry field.
6. If the value is out of bounds, an error message
box displays the proper range of values. Press
the [OK] key to acknowledge the error message.
Re-enter the correct value.
7. When finished making any changes to the data
on an adjustable setpoint display press the [OK]
key to accept all changes or press the
[CANCEL] key to ignore all changes.

4. From Control Setup enter and setup the control
settings.
5. From Security Setup, establish the desired access
rights of the operators.
The panel now provides quick access to the most
important information and controls of the units and their
subsystems.
Also called the "Home" screen. This screen shows an
overview of the most important information about the
units. This screen is shown when power is first turned on
and when a key is pressed after the screen saver has
turned off the backlight. The "Air Handling Unit Overview"
screen is continuously updated and provides the current
status of each unit's condition and performance.
The following information is shown on this screen:
· ID - The identification number of the unit
displayed.
· Name - The identification name that describes
the unit that is displayed.

Several types of failures and alarms are also
indicated on this screen. If a unit stops
communicating with the Quantum™, the information
specific to that unit is shown in red text. After
communications with the unit has been restored, the
text color will return to black. In addition, a list of the
units that have previously been communicating with
the Quantum™ is saved even when powered off. If a
unit in that list does not respond to the Quantum™
during the starting sequence, the words “Not Found”
are displayed in red in place of that unit’s name.
Once a proper connection with the unit is made,
logging in to the unit will replace the words “Not
Found” with the unit’s name. Finally, when a unit is in
an alarm condition, a red circle flashes in the small
box between "Status" and "Mode" until the alarm is
cleared.
