Compressor dead band with variable times
The user can decide to set a variable time between calls, depending on whether the pressure is moving away from the dead band. In particular, the activation /
deactivation time of the outputs decreases as the distance from the dead band increases. To set this function, the following parameters must be configured:
•Maximum compressor on time/ capacity control (parameter r08)
•Minimum compressor on time/ capacity control (parameter r07)
•Pressure differential within which the time varies. (parameter r11)
•Maximum compressor off time/ capacity control (parameter r10)
•Minimum compressor off time/ capacity control (parameter r09)

2. Pressure between point b and point b + DTNZ
type of call between “Max on time” and “Min on time”
3. Pressure greater than or equal to point b + DTNZ

In the deactivation phase, on the other hand, the following cases are possible:
1. Pressure equal to point STPM

2. Pressure between point STPM and point STPM - DTNZ
type of call between “Max off time” and “Min off time”
3. Pressure greater than or equal to point STPM - DTNZ

N.B. To make the device call time constant in the activation phase, simply set the times TOnMax and TonMin to the same value. The same is true for the deactivation
phase.
4.4 Number of compressors started with probe 1 fault
In the event of a suction probe fault or not connected alarm, parameter /07 indicates the number of outputs (compressors and capacity control, configured with
capacity-controlled compressors), forced on, so as to ensure minimum cooling/operation of the installation.
For two circuits, the parameter relating to the second circuit /08 must also be set. This will be related to the probe in the 2nd circuit.

4.5 Compressors with different capacities
Parameter /02 is used to choose the option of compressors with different capacities.
This allows more load steps and therefore finer control.
Once the capacity of the individual compressors has been defined (parameters /03, /04, /05, /06), the software, based on the requirements of the installation and the
compressors available (without alarms or timers), will calculate the most suitable combination to satisfy the requirement. Whenever the requirement changes, the
software recalculates the most suitable combination. The combination will always be greater than or equal to the requirement.
If two compressors have the same capacity, the compressor with the lower index will always be the first to start.
4.5.1 Proportional band control with different capacity compressors
Based on the pressure, the set point and the differential, the software will proportionally calculate the capacity required to bring the pressure back near the set point.
At the set point plus differential the requirement will be at the maximum value, while it will be null for pressure values around or less than the set point.
alDifferenti pressSetpointCapacityMax
requiredCapacity )(_ _−× =
4.5.2 Dead band control with different capacity compressors
The software will calculate the maximum number of combinations possible with the compressors available.
At certain intervals of time (see the paragraph on Compressor dead band with variable times), the software will call a sequence with a higher capacity.
In the deactivation phase, the opposite will occur, while in the dead band no compressors will be started or stopped.
An increase in the requirement will correspond to a different combination.
Fig 4.d
4.5.3 Example of compressors with different capacities
The following example looks at an installation featuring 3 compressors with different capacities, using proportional band control. As can be seen, there are 8 possible

4.6 Manually enable/disable the compressors
A compressor can be temporarily disabled from the control sequence. This function is very useful when needing to perform maintenance on an individual compressor.
The corresponding alarms are still managed.
The following parameters are used: M01,M02,M03,M04 to enable the manual operation of the compressors. The real manual function is managed using parameters:
M05,M06,M07,M08.
On unit models with capacity control (/01=9,10,...14) the compressors cannot be manually enabled/disabled directly. To exploit parameters M01,..,M08,
the unit model needs to be changed (/01=1 for configurations 9, 10 and 11; /01=3 for configurations 12 and 13; /01=4 for configuration 14).

Minimum compressor OFF time
Sets the minimum time the compressors stay off. The devices are not started again if the minimum time selected (parameter C02) has not elapsed since the last stop.
Fig. 4.g
Minimum time between starts of different compressors (proportional band)
This represents the minimum time that must elapse between the start of one device and the next. This parameter allows simultaneous starts to be avoided (parameter
C03).
Fig 4.h
With capacity control compressors is established fixed delay = 5 s, between a capacity control and the following.
Minimum time between starts of the same compressor
Sets the minimum time that must elapse between two starts of the same compressor.
This parameter limits the number of starts per hour. If, for example, the maximum allowable number of starts per hour is 10, to guarantee this limit simply set a value of
360 (parameter C05).

LIFO rotation (no rotation parameter r20=0)
The first fan that to start will be the last to stop.
•Start: Fan1, Fan2, Fan3, Fan4.
•Stop: Fan3, Fan3, Fan2, Fan1.
FIFO rotation (parameter r20=1)
The first fan that to start will be the first to stop.
•Start: Fan1, Fan2, Fan3, Fan4.
•Stop: Fan1, Fan2, Fan3, Fan4.
The rotation of the fans is implemented when called.
Various fan parameters
In the event of a discharge probe fault or not connected alarm, parameter /12 sets the number of fans that are forced on.
5.3 Inverter management
The fan controller is enabled by parameter /10.
A minimum limit value can be set for the inverter (parameter r29), as a percentage.
To assist the start of the inverter, a time can be set, expressed in seconds, during which the inverter is forced on at 100% at startup before proceeding with the normal
regulation. This parameter is called “Speed Up Time” (parameter r27).
Management of the fans slaved to the compressors
Parameter “/13” defines whether the fans can be activated independently or whether at least one compressor must be on. This is used to prevent the condenser fans
operating with high outside temperatures work when no compressor is operating. Typical application: cold rooms cold stores.
Parameter “/13” default = 0 (independent control).
Inverter control
Proportional band
This control requires the inverter set point STPI to be set (parameter r18 ), plus an inverter differential RBI (parameter r19).
If the value measured by the discharge probe is less than or equal to the value of the inverter set point, the inverter output will be 0.
Between the inverter set point STPI and point C (set point + differential), the value of the inverter output will be proportional to the value read by the discharge probe,
and in any case not less than the minimum inverter output MinIn. If the value measured by the discharge probe is greater than or equal to the inverter set point +
differential, the output will be at the maximum value. The control is not associated with any fan and can work without fans being configured.
Proportional control, set by parameter r21, may be proportional only (parameter r21=0) or proportional + integral (parameter r21=1).

Proportional and integral control (PI)
To minimise any deviations in stable operating conditions between the controlled value and the set point, typical of proportional control, a proportional plus integral
strategy (P+I) can be sued.
This strategy helps overcome situations of stalemate in which the working point remains steadily at a value other than the set point.
PI control adds the integral action to proportional control. This action, when a control error persists, has an increasing effect over time on the overall control action.
The parameter that defines the integral action is the integral time (r22).
The default value is 600 s (10 min). The integral time corresponds to the time taken by the integral action, with a constant error, to balance the proportional action.
The lower the integral time, the faster the response of the control.
For further information, refer to classic control theory.
N.B.: Make sure the integral time is not set too low, otherwise control may become unstable.
The following figure highlights the difference between the proportional control and proportional plus integral control (with inverter):

Dead band control
This control requires the setting of inverter set point, the inverter pressure differential for “dead band” control (parameter r21) and the “inverter ramp up time”
(parameter r28).
Three zones are defined: activation zone DOnZ, dead band NZ and deactivation zone DOffZ, in which the program behaves differently (see the figure).
In the activation zone DonZ, the fans are started as follows:
-The inverter is activated as soon as there is demand, with a value no less than the minimum inverter opening MinIn;
-The inverter output is increased according to the times set by parameter r23.
-If the inverter output reaches 100%, the situation persists
In the dead band NZ, the inverter output does not undergo any variation.
In the deactivation zone DoffZ, the fans are stopped as follows:
-The inverter output is progressively brought to the minimum value, according to the times set by parameter r24.
When reaching the minimum value, the fans are stopped.
