Introduction
Please control that the following documents have been delivered together with the unit:
- Directions for assembly and use
- CTS 602 directions (this document)
- Electrical chart
The purpose of this manual is to clearly show the menus and possibilities of the CTS 602 control.
The manual may contain functions and facilities which are not available on your system.
Unless otherwise stated in the titles, the descriptions apply to all systems listed on page 4.
It is possible to e.g. increase the speed of the exhaustion for a limited period of time.
GETTING STARTED
The system is delivered ready for use.
The factory settings are suitable for most user requirements and it should therefore not be
necessary to change any settings other than those found in the main menu.
The main menu is described on pages 8 and 9.

Review of the thermometer sensors
Figure 2: Diagram illustrating sensor location for VP 18 EK
Explanation for figure 2:
T1:
is the thermometer sensor for the fresh air and should be placed at the north side of the
building.
T5:
shows the temperature of the condenser.
T6:
shows the temperature of the evaporator
T11:
is the temperature at the top of the hot water tank
T12:
is the temperature at the bottom of the hot water tank
T14:
is the temperature in the boiler
T15:
is the thermometer sensor in the CTS 602 panel.
The temperature of the sensors can be read in the “Show data” menu.

CTS 602 panel
Use of the CTS602 panel:
- press ESC to go one step back in the menu
- press qp to move up or down in a menu or to adjust an
activated menu
- press ENTERto activate a menu
- press ENTERto confirm a menu

Figure 3: CTS 602 panel
The following is indicated by the light-emitting diode at the front of the CTS 602 panel:
Constant yellow light: the compressor is in operation
Flashing yellow: the unit is in alarm condition
The panel can show 2 lines of text with each 8 characters.
The upper line shows a guiding text.
The bottom line shows the matching values to the guiding text.
The text in the display in “on” as long as there is power to the unit and will not turn off even though
the unit is set to “off” or has not been operated for a longer period of time.
How to use the menu:
It is possible to adjust a value or a function by finding the matching menu via por q.
To activate the desired menu press ENTER.
To adjust the settings of the value press ENTER until the value flashes.
The adjustment can now be done viapq.
To save the chosen value press ENTER.
It is advisable to have the panel and/or the review of the menus near by during the reading of the
menus.
If none of the press buttons are activated for one minute the control will automatically return to the

Min. flow temp.
This is where the forward motion minimum temperature is regulated. The adjustment oversteers a
potential lower temperature from the curve control.
The function can be relevant when using underfloor heating, if a minimum comfort temperature is
wanted.
Max. flow temp.
This is where the forward maximum temperature is regulated. The adjustment oversteers a poten-
tial higher temperature from the curve control.

May be subject to change page 20 af 33
Curve control
The forward motion temperature is regulated automatically in accordance to a curve. See the dia-
gram below:
Outdoor

Displace
Max.
temperature
Central heating
temperature
Curve control
Max.
temperature
Summer mode
The forward motion temperature is controlled as a function by the outdoor temperature so that the
forward motion temperature depends on the outdoor temperature. If the outdoor temperature is low
it will result in a higher forward motion temperature. Curve number 1 is calculated so that it suits
houses with a low heat and curve number 10 is suited houses with a heavy heat loss. Normally,
curve number 5 will be suitable. The curve function is only active before the defined minimum- and
maximum temperatures.
If a constant forward motion temperature is wanted it is possible. Just regulate forward motion min-
imum/maximum with a one degree difference, for example forward motion minimum = 49°C and
forward motion maximum = 50°C.
Offset curve
With this function it is possible to adjust the curves between 10 °C up and 5°C down with a step on
1°C.
Offset T15
This function is only used for demand-control. The adjusted value in this menu is the deviation un-
der the wanted room temperature that needs to be present before it is allowed to start the boiler. It
is possible to prioritize the air/air-heating pump instead of the boiler if a deviation of 1°C-5°C is
chosen
