There are two connection terminals on the back of the remote display (+ and -). NOTE: Emerson recommends using a shielded cable twisted pair 2 x 0.5 mm². The device must be connected to the VNR-terminal on the unit controller according to the polarity.
2.11.4 Double commands – Entering programming level 1 "Pr1" Press simultaneously for about 3 seconds to lock (PoF) or unlock (Pon) the keyboard. Press simultaneously to leave the programming mode or menu. On submenus rtC and EEV this combination allows to go back to the previous level. Press simultaneously for about 3 seconds to access the first level of programming mode.
2.11.7 Fast access menu The f ast access menu contains the list of probes and some values that are automatically evaluated by the board such as the superheat and the percentage of valve opening. "nP" or "noP" stands f or "Probe not present" or "Value not evaluated". "Err" means "Value out of range"...
2.13 Parameters level 1 – Required settings The XCM25D is preconfigured to reduce the required settings on job -site to a minimum. In most cases it will not be necessary to enter programming level 2 "Pr2". Table 17 gives an overview of the parameters available in programming level 1 "Pr1".
The regulation starts when the suction pressure (AI1) increases and reaches the value (C16-C17/2+(C17*C24)/100). Within the adjustment range (C16-C17/2 ~ C16+C17/2) the digital scroll compressor is activated in PWM mode according to the value of the control variable. When the pressure is higher than (C16+C17/2) then the TRIAC output is at maximum capacity. When the pressure is lower than (C16+C17/2) but higher than (C16-C17/2) the digital compressor modulates the capacity according to the proportional band.
NOTE: The SB1 button (test button) allows to by-pass the low-pressure device B10. It might be useful under certain system conditions to manually let the compressors run. Only qualified and trained technicians should activate the compressors manually. Keep system pressures and temperatures within acceptable limits.
