5. Navodila za namestitev

5.1 Priključitev krmilnika

1. Plug the main power cord of the Xetron STC-1000ProTH controller into a standard 110V AC power outlet.
2. Connect the temperature and humidity sensor probe to the designated port on the controller. Ensure it is securely inserted.
3. Identify the 'WORK1' outlet for temperature control and 'WORK2' for humidity control.
4. Plug your heating or cooling device into the 'WORK1' outlet.
5. Plug your humidifying or dehumidifying device into the 'WORK2' outlet.

6.1 Razumevanje zaslona

The large LCD screen displays key information:

• TPV: Temperature Present Value (current temperature).
• HPV: Humidity Present Value (current humidity).
• TSV: Temperature Set Value (desired temperature).
• HSV: Humidity Set Value (desired humidity).

The display also shows icons for heating, cooling, humidifying, dehumidifying, and alarms.

6.2 Basic Parameter Settings

Za vstop v nastavitveni način pritisnite in držite NASTAVI button for 3 seconds until the display beeps or flashes. Use the UP in DOL buttons to navigate through parameters. Press NASTAVI once to select a parameter, use UP/DOL to adjust the value, then press NASTAVI again to confirm. Hold NASTAVI for 3 seconds to exit setting mode.

Example: Setting Humidity Range (e.g., 55% to 65% RH)

1. Pritisnite in držite NASTAVI 3 sekunde, da vstopite v nastavitveni način.
2. Uporaba UP/DOL to navigate to the 'HS' (Humidity Start) setting.
3. Pritisnite NASTAVI once, then use UP/DOL to set the value to '60' (for 60% RH). Press NASTAVI za potrditev.
4. Navigate to the 'HD' (Humidity Differential) setting.
5. Pritisnite NASTAVI once, then use UP/DOL to set the value to '5' (for 5% RH differential). Press NASTAVI to confirm. This means the humidity will turn on at 55% (60-5) and turn off at 60%.
6. Drži NASTAVI for 3 seconds to exit setting mode.

6.3 Nastavitve alarma

The controller features dual alarms for both temperature and humidity. You can set high and low alarm limits. If the measured value goes outside these limits, the controller will sound a buzzer and display a bell icon.

Figure 6.3: Audible and visual alarm indicators.

6.4 Compressor Delay Protection

This feature prevents rapid cycling of connected compressors (e.g., in refrigerators or dehumidifiers), which can extend their lifespan. You can set a delay time in the parameter settings.

Figure 6.4: Compressor delay protection mechanism.

6.5 Screen Display Options

The controller allows you to set the screen display to always remain ON. Refer to the manual's parameter list for the specific setting (e.g., 'BL' to 'O').

9. Odpravljanje težav

• Krmilnik se ne vklopi: Check if the main power plug is securely inserted into a live outlet.
• Povezana naprava se ne aktivira:
  • Verify that the device is correctly plugged into the 'WORK1' (temperature) or 'WORK2' (humidity) outlet.
  • Ensure the device itself is functional by plugging it directly into a wall outlet.
  • Check your set parameters (TSV, HSV, differentials) to ensure the current conditions should trigger the device.
  • Review alarm settings; if an alarm is active, it might prevent normal operation.
  • Consider the compressor delay protection setting if applicable.
• Netočni odčitki:
  • Ensure the sensor probe is clean and unobstructed.
  • Verify the sensor is properly connected to the controller.
  • Perform a temperature and humidity calibration if you have a reference instrument.
• Alarm se nenehno sproži: Adjust the high and low alarm limits to suit your desired operating range.
