3 Installation and maintenance
3 1 Mounting
The unit is provided for fixed wiring and assembly in rooms. For fixing the device there are
drillings with a diameter of 6 mm at the back side. It must be taken care that the case is mounted
vertically, because otherwise the functioning of the coin selector may be reduced. The EMS-8x

3 2 Electrical installation
CAUTION:
The installation hast to be effected by authorized staff only! Please arrange
that the assembly is carried out by a specialist electronic company
Since this is a stationary device with line-side fixed connection, a circuit
breaker must be installed on the installation side!
The installation of the EMS-8x-DU is limited to the connection of the power supply 24V AC and the
switching outputs for the hot water valve (Lw ') and optionally the cold water valve (Lk'). For
start/stop operation morde an additional button can be be connected. The cable for this switch
must be separated from the power supply.
3 2 1 Start/Stop operation mode
For Start/Stop operation mode a button (closer)
has to be connected the provided input. In this
mode, the hot and cold water pipe are controlled
by solenoid valves. Additionally cold water can
delivery free-of-charge by setting P29.
3 2 2 Flow control operation mode
For flow control operation mode the contact of
the flow control unit is connected to the start/
stop input of the EMS-8x-DU. In this mode, only
the hot water pipe is controlled. The time period
begins with the removal of hot water.
3 3 Maintenance
The devices of the EMS-8x series are nearly maintenance-free. Only the coin selector has to be
cleaned sometimes, in order to guarantee a proper operation.

4 Operation
The following description refers to factory default programming of the EMS-8x.
4 1 Cold water delivery free of charge (Start/Stop operation mode)
Cold water can be delivered free of charge by pressing the button, if this function is enabled in the
settings (P29).
4 2 Start/Stop operation mode
The EMS-8x has a -digit LED-Display, that shows the customer the current state of the device. A
survey you can find in the following figure.
Before starting the payment, the device must be free, i.e. the display must show ”0”. After insertion
of the first coin, the EMS-8x indicates the released time. As far as the minimum insertion is not
achieved, the time is indicated flashing. When the min. insertion is achieved by inserting a further
coin, the display does not flash any more and the water delivery can be started. If further coins are
inserted, the currently released time is indicated.
If the Start button is enabled (P26), the water delivery starts after pushing the button, if not water
delivery starts after the minimum insertion has been reached. While the time runs down, the
decimal point is flashing and the displayed remaining time is decreased. After the time has run out
completely the display shows „0“ and the delivery is stoped.
The water delivery can be interrupted at any time by pressing the Start/Stop button. If Autostop
time (P25) is set, the delivery will be stopped after this time. Press the button to restart the delivery
for the remaining time.

Figure 4 : Display overview

User manual | EMS-8x-DU | Beckmann GmbH
An additional adjustable session time-out (P24) can be set to avoid an excessively long use. Should
the delivery time and several stop times together exceed the set session time-out (P24), the
remaining time will be deleted and the delivery is stopped.
4 3 Flow control operation mode
In this operation mode, the time starts with the delivery of hot water. Once the delivery is
interrupted, the time is stopped.
Session time-out (P24) is also available in this mode, see 4.2 for detailed description and examples.
4 4 Automatic hygiene flush
This function is used to automatically flush the lines. The automatic hygiene flush is is activated
when the unit has not been used for a specified time (P27). The duration of flushing is can be setup
in P28.

5 Programming
5 1 Procedure
For the programming of the EMS-8x, the device has to be opened. At the control board inside of
the ISO box there are three buttons available.
By pressing the ”P” button you will enter the programming mode which is indicated in the display
by “Pro”. This state can be left by pushing the “+” button. During run time an emergency stop can
be performed by pushing the “-” button. An emergency stop will reset the device to “free” state
By pressing the ”P” button another time you are in the parameter edit mode. The display shows
alternating a ”P”, followed by the parameter number and the value of the respective parameter.
Press the ”P” button several times until you reach the required parameter. You can find a listing of
all parameters in Table 1, section 5.5. By pressing the „P“ button another time if the last parameter
is reached, all settings are stored and the EMS-8x is in “free” state again. All parameters are stored
electronically and do not loose their values even if the device is switched off. If no button is
pressed for a period of at least 0 seconds, all settings are stored automatically and the EMS-8x
changes over to “free” state.
In the following sections the types of parameters, counter, operating values and switches, are
described.
5 2 Counter editing
Counters are cash counters, customer counters or hour meters. There are erasable and non-
erasable counters. The erasable counters can be erased by pressing the ”+” or ”-”button.
Some counters have a range higher than 999. As the display has only -digits, the notation is
segmented on values higher than 999. The display changes between the parameter-number, the
high level digits (digits 4 - 5) and the low level digits (digits 1 - ). The high level digits are
indicated by the flashing decimal point at the right side. In Figure 4 you can see an example for the
counter operating hours 1 with a counter value of 21 740 hours. If the value is lower than 1.000 the
display changes only between the parameter number and the low level digit display.
5 3 Adjusting operating parameters
Operating parameters are values, you can adjust the prices or the maximum time with. These
values can be increased by pressing the button ”+” and decreased by pressing the button ”-”. The
rate is either 1 or 0,1 depending on the parameter. On pressing the ”+” resp. ”-” button for a longer
time, the value can be changed faster.
5 4 Switch-parameter
By means of the switches a function can be switched on or off. These parameters have
two options only, which can be changed by pressing the ”+” or ”-” button.
