1.71 (new)

Err 2 message (default setting loaded) is not displayed anymore. See section 8.1.
Single error messages to be forwarded over the device bus can be selected.

1.82 (new)
An interrupted drying of jointless floors can be continued by selecting the restarting stages

START temperature maintaining phase or START temperature reduction phase. See section

5.3.
During thermal disinfection, the

Hold time of disinfection temperature can be used to deter­mine how long the disinfection temperature must be maintained within the adjusted time
period to rate the process successful. See section 6.11.

Besides the release of single control circuits, the release of the controller is possible over
the binary input. See section 7.9.

The new system code numbers Anl 14.1 to 14.3 increase the total of different hydraulic

schematics to 43. The new systems are all fitted with a buffer tank and a DHW storage
tank. System Anl 14.3 additionally contains a solar circuit with reroutable heat flow. See
sections 4 and 6.4.

For firmware 1.90 and higher, the maximum flow set point of the controller can be de

-

manded by issuing up to two analog signals for requesting external demand with se

-

quence control. See section 7.14.

1.95 (new)

The priority operation (reverse control and set-back operation) can be set regardless of the
time and temperature in the system. Refer to sections 6.9.1 and 6.9.2.

The setting CO1 -> F20 - 1 allows an external demand for heat to be made when insuffi

-

cient heat is supplied. Refer to section 7.17.

1 Operation

The controller is ready for use with the default temperatures and operating schedules.
On start-up, the current time and date need to be set at the controller (–> section 1.5).

1.1 Operating elements

The operating controls are located in the front panel of the controller and protected by a
Plexiglas door.

1.1.1 Rotary pushbutton and changeover key

1.1.2 Rotary switches

Use the three rotary switches to adjust the required operating mode (icons on the left) and the
relevant parameters (icons on the right).
The top and middle switches are assigned to the heating circuits (see page 169). The rotary
switch in the middle is not used in systems without a second heating circuit.
The bottom switch is assigned to the DHW circuit.

Note: If more than one rotary switch is set to position “Parameter“ (right side) at the same
time, blinks on the display. The controller cannot be operated.

1.2 Operating modes

Day mode (rated operation)

Regardless of the programmed times-of-use and summer mode, the set points relevant for
rated operation are used by the controller.

Night mode (reduced operation)

Regardless of the programmed times-of-use, the set points relevant for reduced operation are
used by the controller.

Automatic mode

During the programmed times-of-use, the controller works in rated operation. Outside these
times-of-use, the controller is in reduced operation, unless control operation is deactivated
depending on the outdoor temperature. The controller switches automatically between both
operating modes.

Manual operation

Valves and pumps can be controlled manually (–> section 3).

1.3 Display

During operation, the display indicates the current time as well as information about the op

­eration of the controller. The times-of-use are represented by black squares below the row of
numbers at the top of the display. Icons indicate the operating status of the controller.

The controller status can be displayed in operating level (–> section 1.4).

Using the Party mode function, the controller continues or activates the rated operation of the
controller during the time when the party timer is active, regardless of the programmed
times-of-use. The party timer begins when the rotary switch has been returned to operating
mode “Automatic“. When the party timer has elapsed, the party timer is reset to 00:00.
