2 Installation
Positioning the Cabinet
Climate Class The fridge is designed to operate within a climate class 5 environment (40°C @ 40% relative
humidity). We recommend that you put the fridge in the coolest place possible because it will
use less power and last longer.
Fridge
Location
The location of the fridge may be the single most important decision that will extend its life and
ensure economical, high performance. Allow adequate space for the door/s to open and close
properly. Self-closing doors have internal torsion bars pretensioned at the factory. Ensure the
cabinet sits on a level surface so that the door shuts and correctly seals, and that the doors
are unobstructed. Level footing also prevents the condensate tray from overflowing.
Power Cord The power cord exits from the top rear of the cabinet and is fitted with a 3-pin plug. Pull the
power cord around so that it’s not trapped before you position the cabinet.
Ventilation For efficient operation, it is essential that adequate ventilation is provided above the
refrigeration unit. Never store cardboard cartons or other items on top of the refrigeration unit.
Minimum ventilation clearances vary depending on whether the fridge is installed free-standing
or built-in. Free-standing fridges are fridges that are installed with free space around the sides
and top of the cabinet and unit. Built-in fridges are fridges that are enclosed within cabinetry
or confined spaces. Ensure the minimum clearances below are met when installing the fridge.
No clearance is required behind the fridge.
Free-standing ventilation clearance
A minimum 300 mm space is required above the refrigeration unit. Free-standing fridges may
be installed in environments up to 43°C.
Built-in ventilation clearance
A minimum 300 mm space is required above the refrigeration unit. Built-in fridges may be
installed in environments up to 40°C.
IMPORTANT
To ensure efficient and reliable operation, ensure minimum
ventilation clearances are met.

Service Manual
3 Electronic Controller
Electronic Controller Operations
Introduction The fridge is fitted with a CAREL S4 or a CAREL S4 Evo electronic controller, which is visible
on the front panel and is housed inside the electronic controller box assembly at the front of
the refrigeration unit.
The electronic controller controls and displays the fridge temperature, signals temperature
alarms, and switches the fridge between Normal and Energy Saving modes depending on
usage. During normal operation, when the cabinet door is being opened and closed, the fridge
is in Normal mode with the lights on. If the door is not opened for a period of time, the fridge
will automatically enter Energy Saving mode and the lights will switch off. See page 12 for
more information on operating modes.
To ensure efficient operation, the electronic controller automatically forces a defrost cycle
when required.
The electronic controller is pre-programmed. SKOPE does not recommend that settings be
changed unless it is absolutely necessary.
Faceplate Because the electronic controller plays such an important role, it’s helpful to know the parts of
the faceplate you may use.

SKOPE TME/SKT ActiveCore
Running the Fridge
Operating
Modes
The electronic controller will automatically switch the fridge between Normal and Energy
Saving modes depending on usage. During Normal mode, the lights are on and product is fully
chilled. During Energy Saving mode the lights are off and the product temperature is
moderated.
Note: Normal and Energy Saving mode are both suitable for perishable product (all shelves
maintain temperature below 5°C).
If the door is not opened for 3 hours (parameter r6), the fridge will automatically enter Energy
Saving mode and the sign and interior lights will switch off. To manually switch the fridge
between Normal and Energy Saving modes, press and hold the Energy Save (up) button on
the electronic controller faceplate. If not manually bought into Normal mode (by pressing
Energy Save up button or opening door), the electronic controller will automatically bring the
fridge into Normal mode after 9 hours (parameter r7) in Energy Saving mode.
During some refrigeration system alarms, the electronic controller will shut down the lights and/
or refrigeration system. Refer to “Messages and Alarms” on page 13 for alarm information.
Compressor
and Fans
The compressor and condenser fan will start approximately one minute after the fridge is
turned on. During Normal mode, the compressor and condenser fan will turn off when the
control probe temperature reading reaches 2°C (parameter St), and on again when it reaches
4°C (parameter St + rd). During Energy Saving mode, the compressor and condenser fan will
turn off when the control probe temperature reading reaches 3°C (parameter St + r4), and on
again when it reaches 5°C (parameter St + r4 + r5).

SKOPE TME/SKT ActiveCore
Electronic Controller
Service Manual
The evaporator fan starts approximately 3 seconds (parameter F0) after the compressor and
condenser fan. To verify, check that the FAN light is lit on the electronic controller.
Temperature
Probes
Two temperature probes feed data to the electronic controller: the control probe and the
evaporator probe. The control probe monitors and controls the fridge temperature, provides
the fridge temperature for the electronic controller to display, and notifies the electronic
controller of any erratic or abnormal temperatures that could identify an issue within the
refrigeration system. The evaporator probe controls the refrigeration system defrost initiation
and termination.
Door Switch The fridge is fitted with a door switch below each door. A small magnet in the door frame
activates the switch. The door switch tells the electronic controller to turn off the evaporator fan
motor (when door opened) and compressor (if door left open for 2 minutes [parameter A10])
during normal run operation, initiate Energy Saving mode if the door is not opened for 3 hours
(parameter r6), and to reactivate Normal mode if the door is opened during Energy Saving
mode.
Defrost Cycle The defrost cycle will begin after 2 hours (parameter dl) of cumulative compressor run time (not
real time) or during no-downward tendency protection (see over page). During the defrost
cycle the compressor stops and the evaporator fan runs continuously. The defrost cycle will
terminate when the evaporator probe reaches 4.5°C (parameter dt), or after the defrost cycle
has been running for 90 minutes (parameter dP).
Lighting Depending on the model, the cabinet may be fitted with an LED lit sign, LED interior sidelights
and/or LED module shelf and side lights.
The electronic controller will automatically switch the lights on when the fridge enters Normal
mode, and off when the fridge enters Energy Saving mode. Press the Light button on the
electronic controller faceplate to manually switch the lights on and off.
Messages and Alarms
Controller
Display
The following table explains messages and alarms that the electronic controller displays.
Alarms signal unexpected operational changes in the fridge and can be muted by pressing the
alarm set (mute) button on the electronic controller faceplate (see page 11).
Refer to “Controller Alarms” on page 70 for alarm diagnostics and actions.
Table 3: Messages
Display Description
The fridge is in Normal mode and the electronic controller displays the fridge
temperature.
Message: The fridge is in Energy Saving mode. When in Energy Saving mode the
temperature inside the fridge is moderated and the cabinet lights turn off. The lights can
be switched on and off by pressing the light button on the controller faceplate, and the
fridge can be switched into Normal mode by pressing the Energy Saving button on the
electronic controller faceplate.
Alarm: The front door has remained open for over two minutes. An alarm sounds, and the
compressor and evaporator fan turn off.
The fridge is in Cold Climate Protection mode. The fridge enters cold climate protection
mode if the room ambient temperature gets too cold. The lights remain on and cannot be
switched off.

Service Manual
SKOPE TME/SKT ActiveCore
No-downward
Tendency
Protection
The electronic controller initiates No-downward Tendency Protection (NDTP) when the
compressor has been running for 200 minutes (parameter d12) and the control probe
temperature has not decreased. This will force a standard defrost cycle (see page 13). If the
electronic controller is required to force consecutive defrost cycles due to NDTP, the
refrigeration system error alarm will start (E3) and the fridge will shut down indicating a fault
within the refrigeration system.
High Pressure
Switch
The refrigeration unit is fitted with a high pressure switch which protects the refrigeration unit
from damage due to over-pressure (high temperature) conditions. When activated, the high
pressure switch cuts power to the electronic controller, the controller display goes blank and
the cabinet lights turn off. Refer to page 41 for service information.
Cold Climate
Protection
The fridge will enter cold climate protection (CCP) mode if the ambient temperature becomes
too cold. This happens if the control probe (at the evaporator air out) detects the interior
temperature below 0°C (parameter St - CCt) for more than 30 minutes (parameter CCd). The
lights will stay on and cannot be switched off while the fridge is in CCP mode. The fridge will
return to its previous mode (Normal or Energy Saving mode) once the control probe reading
raises to parameter St temperature.
