UNPACKING
The units are shipped in two major sub-assemblies; the back pan assembly and the plaque assembly. An interface cable and quick start instructions are included and shipped loose.
Locate the control cable in the box (shown below). This cable used to connect the control board to the plaque assembly. Remove the top cardboard insert. Remove the diffuser back pan and plaque from the packaging taking care.
Precautions:
Care should be taken where handling the plaque assembly. The solar panel can be damaged or dislodged by applying pressure to it or dropping the plaque on a hard surface.

Standalone Installation
1. On the back pan, locate the control box and flip the cover open. There is an orange antenna on the control board. Rotate the antenna wire into the notch in the control box housing. Straighten it so it sticks straight out from the control box. Close the cover.
2. Plug the white connector of the interface cable into the control board which is accessible through the slot in the back pan.
Figure 2. Antenna position
3. Install the back pan into the ceiling grid and connect the duct work to back pan inlet.
4. Install the plaque assembly:
1. Install the plaque assembly into the back pan by inserting
the hanger legs into the mating slots in the back pan.
2. Rotate the plaque slightly clock-wise to align
the hook tip with the small slot.
3. Lower the plaque to seat the hook tip in the small slot.
Warning: Do not apply pressure to solar panel.
5. Plug the black connector of the interface cable into receptacle on the plaque assembly which is located close to the edge of the plaque.

Standalone Commissioning
1. On the back pan, locate the control box and flip the cover open. Locate the two rotary dial switches on the lower right corner of the control board.
Figure 6. Control Board Enclosure
2. The 10 position dial controls the minimum damper position setting and the 16 position dial controls the heating and cooling temperature set points. The tables below show the corresponding settings. Factory set positions are indicated by shaded cells below.
3. When the desired settings are selected, press the red button on the control board to read the new settings into memory.
4. To place the unit in maximum open position for airflow balancing, press the red button 3 times in quick succession. The LED will blink 3 times. The damper will be driven to full open position. The damper will stay in this position for 1-1/2 hours before returning to normal operating mode. If balancing is completed prior to this time, pressing the red button 1 time will return the diffuser to normal operating mode.

Troubleshooting
SELF-TEST PROCEDURE
1. Press the test button 4 consecutive times (4 short presses). This puts the diffuser n self-test mode. The damper ring should move through a full range of motion from (full open to full closed)
2. If there is no problem detected, the external led will be turn on and stay on. The extension harness may now be disconnected.
3. If a problem is detected, the external led will blink in a pattern indicating the type of error detected. Use the table below to troubleshoot possible solutions.

Other motor errors
(no encoder increments detected)
Temperature out of range
(<=5BC or >=50BC)
(<=41BF or >=122BF)

Theory of Operation
• The Helios diffuser is a self-powered variable geometry air distribution device capable of maintaining temperature control in an occupied space though digitally controlled VAV operation.
• A damper ring is vertically adjusted by a motorized lead screw which varies air flow through the diffuser.
• The digital control circuitry and motor are powered by an energy storage capacitor that is charge by a solar collection panel mounted in the plaque face of the diffuser. After full charge the capacitor will maintain a charge for 3 to 4 weeks
• The diffuser can be operated in three configurations:
• Standalone
• Single zone controlled by a wireless Helios wireless thermostat
• Multiple zone controlled by BACNET interface
Modes of Operation
Normal operating mode
Wakes every ten minutes to check:
• Capacitor charge level
• Light level- requires 100 Lux minimum (Average windowless office is about 130)
• Supply air and room temperature
Energy conservation mode - After 8 hours of low light (less than 100 Lux)
Maintains current damper position, wakes every ten minutes to check:
• Capacitor charge level
• Light level- requires 100 Lux minimum
Low Energy mode - capacitor charge drops below 2.8V
• Damper moves to full open
• 0 minute intervals between capacitor charge level check
