The regulaon control allows you to modify the set-point by adding an oset value depending on the outside air temperature. To use this func-
on, modify the values of the regulaon parameters, from b08 to b14, following the informaon in this paragraph.PRG -> PSS -> PRG -> (enter
installer password) -> PRG -> PAr -> PRG -> rE
Parameters of regulator:
• b08 = 1 to enable the dynamic set-point / b08 = 0 to disable the dynamic set-point (default)
• b09 = maximum cooling oset
• b10 = maximum heang oset
• b11 = Cooling outdoor temperature seng
• b12 = Heang outdoor temperature seng
• b13 = Cooling temperature delta
• b14 = Heang temperature delta

EXAMPLE: consider that we want to obtain the following condions in heang mode:
• set-point of 28°C with external temperature of 18°C
• set-point of 45°C with external temperature of 2°C
Set Hea = 28 e b08 = 1, while the other parameters will be calculated as follows:
• b10 = 45 – 28 = 17
• b12 = 18
• b14 = 2 – 18 = -16
EXAMPLE: consider that we want to obtain the following condions in cooling mode:
• set-point of 12°C with external temperature of 25°C
• set-point of 7°C with external temperature of 35°C
Set Coo = 12 e b08 = 1, while the other parameters will be calculated as follows:
• b09 = 7 – 12 = -5
• b11 = 25
• b13 = 35 – 25 = 10

Another type of regulaon allows the set-point to be modied by adding (or subtracng) a value according to the voltage input ST11. To enable
this funcon it is necessary to connect the signal between the terminals indicated in chapter 5 and set the parameter H22 = 40. To use this func-
on, change the values of the following control parameters:
• b15 = Maximum decalibraon value
• b20 = 0 for input type 0-10 V (default)
• b20 = 1 for raometric input
Correcon calculaon with input 0-10 V (b20=0):
• With input at 0 Volt the current set-point will be: set (Coo/Hea) – b15/2
• With 5 Volt input the set-point will be the one set (Coo/Hea)
• With an input at 10 Volt the current set-point will be: set (Coo/Hea) + b15/2

in all other cases it is on. When the unit goes into stand-by, the circulator is switched o with a delay that can be set by parameter P02 in tenths
of a minute (default P02 = 20, i.e. 2 minutes).
OPERATION ON CALL BY TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER
Subsequently, the compressor is also switched on, aer a delay me of P01 seconds (default P01 = 30) since the pump was switched on. In the
switch-o phase, the pump is switched o with a delay me of P02 minutes (default P02 = 2) from the switch-o of the compressor.

OPERATING ON CALL BY TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER WITH PERIODIC ACTIVATION
With P03 = 1, you can also congure the circulator to run periodically according to the following parameters:
• P16 = Periodic acvaon me interval (in minutes)
• P17 = Pump acvaon me (in seconds)
In pracce, when the pump is turned o for sased thermoregulaon, the countdown dened by parameter P16 begins and at each interval of
me P16 the circulator is turned on for a me equal to P17 seconds.
The funcon is disabled with P17 = 0 (default). The periodic funcon is suspended in the case of anfreeze mode intervenon.
OPERATION WITH INTEGRATION RESISTOR ACTIVE
If parameter r33 > 0, the circulator can also be switched on when the system and/or sanitary heang element is acvated.
ANTIFREEZE HYDRAULIC PUMP OPERATION
In this mode, the circulator is always on. Anfreeze operaon is enabled if the control temperature falls below P04 (default P04 = 5.0°C), it is
disabled if the control temperature rises above P04 + P05 °C (default P05 = 2.0°C).
PROPORTIONAL REGULATION
In cooling or heang mode, the speed of circulator changes depending on the temperature dierence between the inlet water and outlet water
of the heat exchanger according to the diagram below, where:
• P06 = Set ΔT water inlet/outlet in heang mode (default P06 = 4,0°C)
• P07 = Maximum speed (100%)
• P08 = Minimum speed
• P09 = Set ΔT water inlet/outlet in cooling mode (default P09 = 2,0°C)
• P10 = Modulang pump Delta (default P10 = 3,0°C)

In pracce, in cooling mode, if the temperature dierence between the inlet and outlet is greater than P09 + P10, the circulator runs at maximum
speed, but if the dierence is less than P09 - 0.2°C, it runs at minimum speed; in the remaining cases, the pump modulates the speed propor-
onally. In heang mode, the same consideraons apply, replacing parameter P06 with parameter P09.
In sanitary producon the circulator always runs at maximum speed.

The control allows the use of a manual system venng funcon with the circulator at maximum speed.
To enable the funcon the operaons to follow are:
• Set unit to OFF
• Access with maintenance privilege PRG -> PSS -> PRG -> (enter installer password) -> PRG
• Press UP and DOWN simultaneously for 3 seconds.
It is possible to exit the system venng cycle manually by pressing the MODE/ESC buon,or by pressing UP and DOWN keys simultaneously for

10. FAN
The unit's fan is controlled depending on the operaon of the compressor. Venlaon is controlled according to the condensing pressure in
cooling mode or according to the evaporang pressure in heang mode. Pre-venlaon takes place every me the compressor is switched on

11. COMPRESSOR CRANKCASE RESISTENCE
The crankcase resistence is acvated if the compressor has been o for at least 30 minutes and if the temperature measured by the discharge
probe is below 20 °C (with a hysteresis of 2.0 °C). When the compressor restarts, the crankcase resisitence is disabled.
12. ENABLING DOMESTIC HOT WATER PRODUCTION
To enable the producon of domesc hot water it is necessary to connect a probe to the analogue input ST6 to be posioned inside the tank (the
relave terminals are indicated in chapter 5 or on the electrical diagram). Once the DHW temperature probe has been posioned and connected,
it must be enabled by seng parameter H17 = 6.
The DHW valve must be connected to digital output DO6 (see Chapter 5), and the relave control must also be enabled with parameter H84 =
6 (default).
The domesc hot water (DHW) funcon is controlled through parameter H10:

If the DHW temperature is lower than the DHW set (set to 48°C by default), the machine acvates the DHW valve and the compressor is set to
the maximum frequency, starng the modulaon one degree before the set and switching o one degree aer the set. Once the set point has
been reached, the valve returns to rest mode and the compressor starts to regulate normally. Switching from winter operaon to domesc hot
water operaon, the compressor does not switch o, while switching from summer operaon to domesc hot water operaon the compressor
is switched o to wait for the safety me.
If H10 = 1/2/3, switching the unit o remotely (remote on/o, see paragraph 13.1) does not aect the DHW operaon

MEMORISING THE PROBE IN HEATING MODE
When switching from the system to DHW, the reference probe changes from "water outlet probe" to "DHW probe". The display on the machine
shows the temperature read by the probe located inside the DHW tank; once the DHW cycle is over, the display returns to show the water outlet
temperature. In heang mode, before entering DHW mode, the last value read by the ow probe of the heat pump is memorised. Once the DHW
temperature control is sased, the reference temperature on the system side returns to the previously memorised one.
La funzione di memoria si interrompe:
• when the temperature read by the probe becomes lower than the stored value;
• or a me equal to b06 seconds has elapsed (default b06 = 45).
HEATING MODE ON DHW STORAGE TANK
If parameter H130 = 1, the machine also uses the DHW storage tank for heang on the system side. Under these condions, the DHW valve
output is also acve during hot operaon. The valve is deacvated during defrosng and in cold mode. In this mode (H130 = 1) it is possible to
make the domesc hot water integraon resistor also act as integraon resistor on the system side.le to make the DHW integraon resistor also
act as an integraon resistor on the plant side.
INSUFFICIENT HEAT EXCHANGE IN A DHW SYSTEM
During DHW producon, if the heat pump ow probe detects a temperature higher than 60°C, the DHW valve output is de-energised (DO6), and
the value of the DHW probe at this me is recorded (Tsan,set).
• if the operaon is San or Cool+San the compressor is stopped.
• if the operaon is Heat+San, the system evaluates for b06 seconds whether there is a demand for heang from the system. If the system
requires it, the compressor connues to work on the system, otherwise it is switched o.
• if the DHW resistor is present (e.g. DO3, H81=26), r15 = 0 or 1 and r24=2 or 3 it is acvated unl the DHW setpoint detected by the DHW
probe is met (and any oset).
The compressor restarts when the ow temperature of the heat pump falls below 60°C again and the temperature measured by the DHW probe
is lower than Tsan,set - 4°C.
13. REMOTE FUNCTION

the contact is closed, the machine comes out of stand-by and the circulator is acvated for 2 minutes.
The funcon is disabled by reinserng the electrical bridge or seng parameter H47 = 0.

In some system soluons (e.g.: heat pump in parallel with the boiler on the same hydronic circuit and exclusion diverter valve) it may be neces-
sary to enable a temperature probe of the system so that the on-board control can process the management correctly. The system remote probe
is acvated by seng parameter H18 = 41.
The system remote probe thermoregulates the heat pump only during the compressor start-up phase, the switch-o is managed by the probe
on the heat pump delivery.
In heang mode, the call is acve if the following condions are veried:
• Flow probe temperature < ;
• Temperature of the system remote probe <  (default b22 = 5,0°C).

14. DEFROSTING CYCLE
The defrost cycle is a funcon acve only in heat pump mode and is used to prevent the formaon of ice on the surface of the nned coil. The
formaon of ice on the evaporator, which occurs more frequently at very low external ambient temperatures, not only considerably reduces the
thermodynamic eciency of the machine, but also leads to the risk of damage to the machine itself.

To dene how the integraon resistors are to operate, parameter r24 must be se:
• r24 = 0 for integraon resisitors not used;
• r24 = 1 for use of system integraon resisitor;
• r24 = 2 for use of sanitary integraon resisitance;

The system resistance must be connected to the digital output DO3 and can be congured by seng parameter H81 = 22.
If the regulaon temperature remains lower than the hot water set-point  (°C) for a me equal to r12 the integraon resistor is acvat-
ed according to the operaon of the machine in the combined or replacement bands.
The resistor is also acvated if the control temperature remains below the water set-point  (°C) and the machine is in lockout due to
the intervenon of an alarm. It switches o when the machine exits the alarm block.
Seng r21 = 1, during the defrost cycle, if required (temperature lower than Hea - r11), the system resistor is acvated without waing for the
me dened by r12.
The resistor switches o when the set-point is reached (also taking into account any oset set with parameters r29 or r30).

Conguring the DHW resistance it is also possible to use it as a system resistor, by seng the parameter r15 = 2 and r24 = 3.
In this way, in the event of a request for system integraon, the resistance declared as DHW integraon is acvated, thus making it possible to
have a single integraon resistance for the system, DHW and defrosng.

The resistors can be acvated simultaneously if r14 = 0 (default), otherwise the priority of the order of acvaon of the system-side and DHW-

• r14 = 1 for resistance acvaon in exclusion of each other;
• r20 = 0 for system priority (the domesc heang element is acvated only if the system-side thermoregulaon is sased);

• r33 = 1 for acvaon with system resistance acve.
• r33 = 2 for acvaon with sanitary heang element acve.

If the outdoor temperature is between r22 and r28, the compressor operates in synergy with the auxiliary heaters in winter or DHW mode. In

OPERATION IN SUBSTITUTION
If the outside temperature falls below r08 the heat pump compressor is disabled and the auxiliary devices operate in place of it. The compressor
is enabled again if the temperature rises above  (default r09 = 1.0 °C).
If the auxiliary system consists of system and/or DHW resistors, they operate according to the mes dened by parameters r12 (minutes) for the
system side and r16 (minutes) for the DHW side. In the substuon operaon band, it is not necessary to enable the integraons with r10 or r15
since the resistances must operate as a replacement for the heat pump (it is therefore sucient to select the type of use from parameter r24).
If the auxiliary system is a boiler with autonomous thermoregulaon (r32 = 2 or 3),it is enabled independently of the thermoregulaon of the
heat pump.
