Default screen display
Figure 3: Default screen display when compressor is running

(load: motor running, regulating valve open).
The following data can be displayed in the default screen display:

7-segm.A: current mains pressure (in example 7.2 bar)
7-segm.B: current compressor temperature (60°C in the example)
If the ▲ button is pressed, all temperatures of the temperature sensors in
place are displayed in sequence
(switching after 2-3s in each case):
"t. 1" = compressor temperature
"t. 2" = oil or dew point temperature
"t. 3/4/5" = winding temperature 1/2/3 (only if present!)
"t. 6/7" = bearing temperature A/B (only if present!)
The identifier "T2" is displayed here after the temperature.
7-segm.C: during fault/warning: Number of the current fault or warning and corresponding
fault/warning text (abbreviation, 5 characters)
With automatic restart activated after power outage the delay
so far is displayed here. A stationary / overrun time currently in
progress is displayed here also.
3.3 . Code input

A code must be entered before parameters can be changed. This code (customer,
service, factory code) determines which values can be edited.
Codes can only be input if the compressor is switched off!
The input screen for the code appears when the Off button (O) has pressed for at least 3
seconds (see Figure 4).

Figure 4: Code input.
The corresponding code can now be entered using the arrow keys. Use the
ENTER key to accept the code or the 0 key to reject the entry again and return to
the default screen display.
The following codes are available:

Code Authorisation Following display
00001 Customer code Displays first menu item of customer menu
03846 Service code Displays first menu item of the service menu
The "Service code" can be set at will (see Item 3.5.24).
01923 Factory code Same as "daily code" with full access. Only for commissioning.
Is replaced by dynamic daily code after installation.
09999 <Information> Displays software version and random number for current
<Random number> factory code (daily code) – once entered:
Displays first menu item of factory menu
Variable factory code

The factory code is variable once commissioning has taken place. To obtain the factory
code currently valid, the second parameter must be read from the menu item (code level)
9999. It contains a random number to generate a temporary factory code. This factory
code then provides access to all menu items for 24h.
Figure 5: Display following input and confirmation of the

customer code.
Top line: Code 1 – bottom: Menu item (code level) 2.

3.4 . Menu system – parameter entries
All setting parameters can be changed by selecting the corresponding menu item (code
level). The right code has to be entered first (see Section 3.3). Afterwards, it is possible to
scroll through the menu items of the selected menu using the arrow keys. Menu items are
selected using the Enter key (Figure 6).
Figure 6: Operating mode: Menu item (code level) 2,

first parameter
Each menu item may contain one or more parameters. These are indicated by green
digits. The Enter key is used to scroll through the parameters.
If a value can be edited, it will flash and can then be changed using the arrow keys. The
new value is adopted by pressing the Enter key and is rejected using the 0 key.
The respective menu item or menu can be exited using the 0 key.
Note: The values that are displayed on the default screen display using the Info key
cannot be changed there. They can be found in all menus (customer, service, factory)
under menu item 11.

3.5 . Menu items
3.5.1 Operating mode
The operating mode is set through menu item 2.
Menu item (code level) 2
Parameter no. Meaning Value range / Default
1 Operating mode 0 = AUTOMATIC

1 = LOADED/IDLING
The "Autom." symbol is displayed if the "AUTOMATIC" operating mode has been
selected.
3.5.2 Automatic restart after power outage
The automatic restart after power outage is set using menu item 3. Also refer to Section
4.8 for details of how this impacts on the procedure.
1 Automatic restart after 0 = Restart OFF

power outage 1 = Restart ON
The "Restart" symbol indicates that restart has been activated.

3.5.3 Additional heater, fan, dryer (standard compressor!)
The parameters in menu item 5 differ according to compressor type (with "Combi with
dryer" type only parameter 1 is available).
Heater / fan / dryer
1 "Heater" function Standard compressor:

0 = without heater
1 = additional heater via comp. temp.
2 = additional heater by oil temp.
"Combi with dryer":

0 = recirculation OFF
>0 = recirculation ON
2 Heater switch-on temperature 2 – 15°C
3 Heater switch-off temperature 2 – 15°C
4 "Recirculation" function 0 = recirculation OFF

1 = recirculation ON
5 "With fan" function 0 = without fan

1 = with fan (digital)
2 = fan with frequency converter
6 Fan switch-on temperature 10 – 90°C
7 Fan switch-off temperature 10 – 80°C
8 Fan min. temperature 40 – 70°C

(= min. speed, if with FC)
9 Fan max. temperature 70 – 95°C

(= max. speed, if with FC)
10 "With dryer" function 0 = without dryer

1 = with dryer
11 Dryer switch-on temperature 2 – 20°C
12 Dryer switch-off temperature 0 – 10°C
13 Min. deactivation time, dryer 30 to 180 s

(before being switched on again)

Note: If the "Heater" is deactivated (par. 1 = 0), the corresponding output is no longer
controlled.
In this case the two parameters for the switch-on/off temperature (par. 2+3) are
then also hidden.
If the "Fan" is deactivated (par. 5 = 0), the parameters for the activation/
deactivation temperature (par. 6+7) and min./max. temp. (par. 8+9) are hidden.
If "Fan with FC" (par. 5 = 2) is selected, parameters 6+7 are hidden.
If "Fan digital" (par. 5 = 1) is selected, parameters 8+9 are hidden.
If the "Dryer" is deactivated (par. 10 = 0), parameters 11+12+13 are hidden (see
also Item 4.6).
3.5.4 Local operation, remote control, feedback "Basic

load cycle OK"
1 Local operation, remote control 0 = local operation

1 = remote control
2 = basic load cycle OK
Remote control
ON, if terminals 23+31 = closed [edge!] and "keyed in" locally;
OFF if terminals 23+31 = open or using 0 key;
If the system has been switched to remote control and the system has been keyed in, this
will be indicated by the flashing "Remote" symbol.
If the system is switched off using the 0 key, the "Remote" symbol is removed from the
LCD!
Basic load cycle OK

Basic load cycle OK if terminal 23+31 = closed
basic load cycle fault if terminal 23+31 = open

3.5.5 Operating parameters
The operating parameters can be called up, without entering a code, directly from the
default screen display by pressing the Info key (display only).
Some of the parameters in menu items 11 and 9919 can then be changed.
Menu item (code level) 11 and 9919
Parameter no. Meaning Value range / Default Can be edited

from
menu item...
1 Switch-on pressure Depending on the 11

system type
2 Switch-off pressure Depending on the 11

system type
3 Safety pressure Cannot be edited --
4 Minimum pressure / basic 11

12 Lubrication rime remaining Cannot be edited --
13 Compressor time remaining Cannot be edited --
14 Annual maintenance time Cannot be edited --

remaining
15 Dryer time remaining Cannot be edited --
(only if "With dryer")
Some parameters are preassigned from a table by selecting a system type. For more
information, also refer to Section 3.5.10.

3.5.6 Basic load cycle operation
1 Basic load cycle operation 0 = No basic load cycle operation, i.e.

(system running as basic load loaded/idling via local pressure sensor
cycle slave) 1 = basic load cycle operation,
loaded if terminal 22+31 = closed
idling if terminal 22+31 = open
CAUTION:
If input e02.6 has been defined as feedback [Basic load cycle OK] using the menu item
(code level) 0008 and there is no signal (e02.6 = 0), basic load cycle operation is
automatically switched off and the system continues to run with the local pressure sensor
(until "e02.6 = 1" again).
If basic load cycle operation has been activated, this is also indicated by the static
"Remote" symbol in the display. With basic load cycle operation, the local pressure sensor
is only used for monitoring the safety pressure (P_PERM).
With basic load cycle operation activated, the loaded/idling request from the basic load
cycle master can also be made via the RS485 interface. In this case, the corresponding
digital input signals are ignored as long as control is performed via the interface. If the
data exchange via the interface is interrupted for longer than 2 seconds, the control
system switches back to control via the digital inputs.
In basic load cycle operation, if the mains pressure falls below the "Minimum pressure"
threshold, the system switches to the local pressure sensor and the warning [7]
("Minimum pressure threshold reached") appears. This warning must be acknowledged
using the 0 key before switching back to the load request from the basic load cycle
master.

3.5.7 Fault memory

Display fault memory
Parameter no. Meaning Display / Value Range / Default
1 - 20 Display fault memory - Item in the fault memory

- Number of the fault/warning
- Operating hours upon occurrence
of the fault/warning
If the "Hazard triangle" symbol is shown, this entry constitutes a

warning/maintenance.
If the "Tool" symbol is show, this entry constitutes a fault.
The arrow keys can be used to scroll through the 20 items of the fault memory. Item 1 is
always the "most recent" fault. The individual items in the fault memory are stored in the
EEPROM memory, and are therefore still available even after a power outage. See
Section 3.6 for a list of potential messages.
Autom.
Figure 7: Fault memory item 1 (most recent entry):

Error number 65 fault, occurred at 3 operating hours.
Autom.
Figure 8: Fault memory item 2:Error number 22,

warning, occurred at 1 operating hour.

3.5.8 Editing nominal values for maintenance intervals
Menu item (code level) 40 – only if "With dryer"
Parameter no. Meaning Display / value range
1 Dryer Range: 0 - 30000 h
1 Air filter Range: 0 - 30000 h
1 Oil / oil filter Range: 0 - 30000 h
1 Oil separator Range: 0 - 30000 h
1 Motor lubrication Range: 0 - 30000 h
1 Compressor Range: 0 - 30000 h
1 Annual maintenance Range: 8760 / 8784h
The corresponding nominal values can be selected in steps of 500 using the arrow keys

"Operation")

3.5.13 Dryer activation (only "Combi with dryer")
Menu item (code level) 80 – only for "Combi with dryer" type
1 Dryer on/off 0 = off; 1 = on
2 Dryer switch-off temperature Range 0...6°C
3 Dryer diff. temperature Range 2...10°C
4 Dryer minimum switch-off time Range: 30 to 600 seconds
5 Offset, dew point temperature Range: -10...+10°C
6 Switch-off delay Range: 0…5 minutes
7 Dryer on with system off 0 = no; 1 = yes;
The dryer is switched on if the dew point temperature rises above the "Dryer switch-off
temperature + dryer diff. temperature".
The dryer is switched off again if the dew point temperature has fallen below the "Dryer
switch-off temperature" threshold for at least the set time (par. 6 = switch-off delay).
After the dryer is switched off, the "Dryer minimum switch-off time" must have expired
before it can be switched on again.
If parameter [7] is programmed to "1" (i.e. dryer on with system off), the dryer will be
activated even if the system is switched off, otherwise the dryer is switched off along with
the system.
The dew point temperature can be displayed if the ▲ key is pressed in the default screen
display (the "T2" symbol is then displayed at the same time => 2nd temp.).
If the dryer is activated, this will be indicated by the "4" symbol. Pressing the ▲ and
ENTER keys at the same time allows the dryer to be switched on/off manually. If the dryer
has been switched off manually, the "4" symbol flashes
3.5.14 Default setting of the system data
Menu item (code level) 88 resets all adjustable parameters to their default values and
returns the display to the default screen display.
CAUTION: Any data set manually prior to this are overwritten!

3.5.15 Changing unit for pressure display
1 Pressure unit 0 = Pressure display in [bar]

1 = Pressure display in [MPa]
2 = Pressure display in [psi]
3.5.16 Changing unit for temperature display:
1 Temperature unit 0 = Temperature display in [°C]

1 = Temperature display in [°F]
2 = Temperature display in [ K]
3.5.17 Correction value for pressure measurement

1 Pressure measurement correction value -0.5 to +0.5
This value can be used to specify an offset for the pressure measurement value in order
to compensate for minor deviations with the pressure sensors.

3.5.18 Setting RS485 parameter
Parameter no. Meaning Display / Value range / Default

1 System address 0= The RS485 connection is switched off

2 = 1 start bit, 8 data bit, 1 stop bit, even parity
3 = 1 start bit, 8 data bit, 1 stop bit, odd parity
Note: Note that a separate address must be set for each system connected. In addition,
the corresponding interface module (RS485) must be present in the control system.
Note that the same baud rate, the same protocol and the same data format must be set
for each system connected!
3.5.19 Selection of FC type used
1 FC type 0 = Yaskawa
1 = Emotron [ Default setting ]
2 = Bosch-Rexroth
3 = ABB (ACS510)
4 = Delta (C2000)

3.5.20 Testing the digital inputs/outputs
1-8 Input 1-8 0 = off

1 = on
9-15 Output 1–7 0 = switch off

1 = switch on
The arrow keys can be used to switch the relevant output ON or OFF for the output
signals. The ENTER key moves you on to the next input/output (in this case, the outputs
are always switched off beforehand). The last step is always followed by the default
screen display.
CAUTION: Activating individual outputs in test mode may cause the compressor motor to
start up!
3.5.21 Monitoring: Dew point / bearing / winding temp.
1 Max. dew point temperature 0 - +50°C (0 = monitoring off!)
2 Min. dew point temperature -10 – +50°C
3 Message = warning or fault 0 = warning; 1 = fault
4 With winding temp. monitoring 0 = No, 1 = Yes
5 Max. winding temperature 80 – 150°C
6 With bearing temp. monitoring 0 = No, 1 = Yes
7 Max. bearing temperature 80 – 150°C
If this function "Dew point temp. monitoring" is activated (par. 1 > 0°C), the dew point
temperature is monitored for the set limit values and the corresponding temp. sensor is
monitored for defects.
When the I key is pressed, if the dew point temperature is above the "Dew point max"
threshold, a "Dew point temperature" warning is generated.

If the compressor motor is running and the dew point temperature falls below the
"Dew point min" threshold, a "Dew point too low" warning / fault is generated.
If the compressor motor is running and the dew point temperature exceeds the
"Dew point max" threshold, a "Dew point too high" warning / fault is generated.
If the function "Winding temp. monitoring" is activated (par. 4 = 1), the temperatures for
"Winding 1 / 2 / 3" are monitored for the set limit value.
If a winding temperature exceeds the limit value (par. 5), a "Winding temp. 1 / 2 / 3 too
high" fault is generated and the compressor is shut down.
If a sensor defect is identified, a "Cable defect winding temp. 1/2/3" fault is generated
and the compressor is shut down. For this option, an additional module "MK200-8E4AE"
(addr. 8 / Pt100: -20°C .. +300°C) is required!
If the function "Bearing temp. monitoring" is activated (par. 6 = 1), the temperatures for
"Bearing A / B" are monitored for the set limit value.
If a bearing temperature exceeds the limit value (par. 7), a "Bearing temp. A/B too high"
fault is generated and the compressor is shut down.
If a sensor defect is identified, a "Cable defect bearing temp. A/B" fault is generated
and the compressor is shut down. For this option, an additional module "MK200-8E4AE"
(addr. 9 / Pt100: -20°C .. +300°C) is required!

3.5.22 Correction value for temperaturemeasurement
2 Correction value for compressor -10°C to +10°C (default: 0°C)

temperature
3 Correction value for oil temperature -10°C to +10°C (default: 0°C)

(or correction value for dew point temp.)
4 Correction value for dew point temp. -10°C to +10°C (default: 0°C)
(if module "MK200-4AE4RA", addr. 7)
These values can be used to specify an offset for each individual temperature
measurement value. This will compensate for minor deviations in the values recorded by
the temperature sensors.
3.5.23 Activating additional MK200 modules
1 MK200 Profibus module present 0/1 = No/Yes (default: 0)
2 MK200-8E4RA (addr. 2) present 0/1 = No/Yes (default: 0)
In order to be able to connect these modules, the control system must be equipped with a
"Bus module"!
If one of these modules is activated, but is not actually available, the "44 Module"
warning message is displayed (see: Item 3.6.2).

3.5.24 Changing service code
1 Change current service code 1 - 9999 (default: 3846)
A new "Service code" can be defined here.
CAUTION: If a code is entered here that has already been used elsewhere, the old
function will subsequently no longer be available!
3.5.25 Additional counters for operating hours/hours under

load, load cycles, motor starts
1 Operating hours 0 – 999999 h

(cannot be edited, cannot be deleted)
2 Hours under load 0 – 999999 h

3 Load cycles 0 – 999999

4 Motor starts 0 – 999999

This values are also recorded here but cannot be edited or deleted! They remain
unchanged even after switching to "Default setting".

* The flashing icons (1 to 7) listed below tell you which module is
affected:
[ 1 ] => MK200-2AA (addr. 1)
[ 2 ] => MK200-8E4RA (addr. 2)
otherwise => MK200-Profibus (addr.31)
The compressor is not shut down in the event of a warning/maintenance signal.

The red LED flashes until the cause of the warning has been rectified and/or the
corresponding maintenance interval has been acknowledged. Normally a fault/warning is
displayed instantly.
If, however, the operator has pressed the INFO key in order to enter nominal or limit
values, the fault/warning will not be displayed until the operator switches back to the
default screen display.

4 Information about the program
This only applies to the "FLEX" system type:

If the "Commissioning sequence" for the compressor motor has not been performed
yet, -OFF- appears on the display and the compressor cannot be started!
To start this "Commissioning sequence", use code "111".
While the "Commissioning sequence" is running, the bottom 7-segment display
shows the current progress, the nominal value for the converter and the time
remaining for this step (for example, "1 40: 15 s" ► Step = 1; Nominal value =
40%; Time remaining = 15 seconds).
4.1 . Operating states
a) the compressor is switched off:

 the green LED is off
 the "Motor" and "Solenoid valve" symbols are off (LCD)
b) the compressor is switched on but the current pressure is still above the switch-on
pressure (start-up safeguard).
 the green LED is flashing
 the "Motor" and "Solenoid valve" symbols are off
c) The compressor has been switched on but the compressor temperature (or oil
temperature if "With heater") is still below +1°C:
 the green LED is flashing
 the "Motor" and "Solenoid valve" symbols are off
 the symbol for the temperature unit is flashing (LCD: °C/°F/K)
d) the compressor is running but the load valve is switched off, i.e. the compressor
is not compressing. (Ramp-up phase or idling)
 the green LED is on
 the "Motor" symbol is on
 the "Load valve" symbol is off
e) the compressor is running and the load valve is switched on, i.e. the compressor
is compressing. (loaded)
 the green LED is on
 the green "Motor" symbol is on
 the green "Load valve" symbol is on

4.2 . Operating modes
a) AUTOMATIC operation
Once the switch-off pressure is reached, the system goes into IDLE MODE (overrun) for
the duration of the "Idling time".
To indicate that the idling time is active, the decimal point to the left of the pressure
display flashes. The compressor shuts down after the "Idling time".
Once shut down, the green LED flashes => Ready to start up again.
As soon as the pressure again falls below the switch-on pressure, the system restarts.
b) LOADED/IDLING mode
The compressor switches between "Loaded" and "Idling" mode, i.e. it overruns for an
unlimited time.
4.3 . Switching on
If the "Dew point temp.monitoring" option (see: Item 3.5.19) is activated and if the dew
point temperature is above the "Max. dew point" threshold, the "Dew point temperature"
warning [35] appears.
When switching on the compressor, if the current mains pressure is greater than the set
switch-on pressure, the green LED flashes (= ready). Only when the mains pressure falls
below the switch-on pressure does the compressor start up and the operating display
(green LED) light up continuously. When the compressor temperature (or oil temp. if "With
heater") is below +1°C when switching on, the unit for the temperature flashes (°C/°F/K)
and the green LED flashes too. The warning [23] is also displayed here. If the temperature
then rises to at least +1°C, the compressor is started.
4.4 . Switching off
If the compressor is switched off using the 0 key (or remote OFF), it first switches to idling.
In the display, the decimal point before the pressure display flashes. The remaining time
until shut down can be displayed using the ▼ key. Here the stationary time is used as
time. Only when this time has passed does the system shut down completely. As long as
the compressor is in "Ramp-up" mode (i.e. star/delta ramp-up not yet completed) it will be
shut down immediately (without delay).

4.5 . Safety pressure ("P_PERM")
The safety pressure is the set "Pressure range" + 0.8 bar. ("Pressure range")
Example: "Pressure range" = 10 bar => "P_perm" = 10.8 bar
If the pressure rises above the threshold "P_perm – 0.3 bar", a warning will be reported. If
the pressure rises above the threshold "P_perm", the compressor will be shut down with a
fault message.
4.6 . "Additional heater" / "Fan" / "Dryer" function
(Standard compressors // see also 3.5.3)
a) "Heater = 1" / compressor motor is OFF / main switch is ON

If the compressor temperature falls below the "Heater ON" threshold (or "Min.
ompressor temp. - 1°C", if the control has not been keyed in), the output for the
"Additional heater" is switched on.
If the compressor temperature rises above the "Heater OFF" threshold (or "Min.
compressor temp. + 2°C", of the control has not been keyed in), the output for the
"Additional heater" is switched off.
In the case of a warning "25" (heater oil level) or a fault "66" (compr. temperature
sensor defect), the heater is switched off.
a) "Heater = 2" / compressor motor is OFF / main switch is ON

If the oil temperature falls below the "Heater ON" threshold (or min. compressor
temp. - 1°C", if the control has not been keyed in), the output for the "Additional
heater" is switched on.
If the oil temperature rises above the "Heater OFF" threshold (or "Min. compressor
temp. + 2°C", of the control has not been keyed in), the output for the "Additional
heater" is switched off.
In the case of a warning "25" (heater oil level) or a fault "67" (oil temperature sensor
defect), the heater is switched off.
c) If the additional heater unit is deactivated (heater = 0), or if the compressor motor
is running, the output for the "Additional heater" is switched off!
d) "With fan (digital)"

If the compressor is keyed in and the compressor temperature rises above the
"Fan ON" threshold, the output for the fan is switched on.
If the compressor temperature falls below the "Fan OFF" threshold, the output for
the fan is switched off

e) "With fan (frequency converter)"

If the compressor is keyed in and the compressor temperature rises above the
"Fan MIN" threshold, the output for the fan is switched on.
Depending on the current compr. temp. the fan is controlled using a converter in the
range of 0% (CT ≤ fan MIN) up to 100% (CT ≥ fan MAX) of its max. speed. If the
compressor temperature falls below the "Fan MIN" threshold, the output for the fan
is switched off.
f) "With recirculation" (now also valid for the "Combi with dryer" type)
If the "Recirculation" function is activated (see Item 3.5.3) and the system has been
keyed in, the system will start up if the compressor temperature falls below the
threshold of +5°C (the system is idling). As soon as the compressor temperature
rises above the threshold of +15°C again, the system is stopped again.
Press the ENTER and ▼ keys (in the default screen display!) at the same time to
switch the activated "Recirculation" function on/off temporarily.
g) "With recirculation" and "With heater" and "System keyed in"

In this case, the "Heater" is only switched on if the temperature falls below the
threshold of +1°C.
h) "With dryer" (standard compressor!)

If the dew point temperature rises above the threshold [dryer on], the "Dryer" output
is switched on.
If the dew point temperature falls below the threshold [dryer off], the "Dryer" output is
switched off.
* If the "Heater" function is also activated, an additional “MK200-4AE4R" module

(addr. 7) is required to read in the dew point temperature (terminals 5+6) and also
to control the dryer (terminals 12+13)!
Press the ▼ key in the default screen display to display this temperature!
* If the "Heater" function is deactivated, the 2nd temperature sensor (AI-2)

and the "A6" output are used here (each on "AirControl B").
If the "Recirculation" function is activated, the symbol is displayed;

if the function is switched off temporarily this symbol flashes.
The compressor can usually only be started when the compressor temperature
or the oil temperature has at least reached the +1°C threshold.
If the output for the additional heater or fan is switched on, the corresponding symbol
appears on the LCD.
If the dryer is activated, this will be indicated by the "4" symbol.
If the "With dryer" function is activated, you can then press the ▲ and ENTER keys at
the same time to switch the dryer on/off manually.
If the dryer was switched off in this way, the "4" symbol flashes

4.7 . Maintenance intervals
(For actual values, see: 3.1 / For nominal values, see: 3.5.9 )
There is a countdown of the corresponding intervals. As soon as one of these intervals

reaches less than 100 hours, the corresponding message appears and the red LED
flashes ( => Maintenance !). To acknowledge this message, first activate menu item (code
level) 21 and then press the 0 key. This resets the interval in question to the preset
nominal value.
If a (new) nominal value is accepted using the ENTER key, the corresponding
maintenance interval is likewise started anew with this nominal value.
4.8 . Procedure for "Automatic restart", stationary time
If the "Automatic restart after power outage" has been programmed, then after the power
returns, the time that has been set in the parameter "Stationary time" elapses. The
"Restart" symbol flashes during this time.
If the system was in operation before the power outage, it restarts after this time,
otherwise it remains in STOP mode.
If "Restart" is activated, the "Power outage" fault is not reported when the power returns!
4.9 . Settings for the frequency converter (FC):
Set the FC's interface parameters to the following values:

[ Mode: Remote control and nominal values specified via RS485 / ModBus ]
* RS485 address: 1;
* Baud rate: 9600 baud;
* Protocol: Modbus-RTU© (ABB: EFB profiles = "ABB DRV LIM")
* Data format: Yaskawa: 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, equal parity;
Bosch-Rexroth: 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity;
Others: 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 2 stop bits, no parity;
If the "Yaskawa" type is used as fan FC (see Item 3.5.3, Par. 5), then the following
settings will be required here:
* RS485 address: 2;

6 Standard protocol / Profibus DP
To activate this operating mode, "standard" must be selected as protocol for the
interface (see Item 3.5.18 / Par. 4).
6.1 . Standard protocol
A detailed technical description of the standard protocol including an exact

structure of the send/receive telegram is available in a separate document.
6.2 . Profibus II (Profibus DP)
A technical description of the Profibus module including the terminal assignment

is available in a separate document.
Data set structure

A max. of 104 bytes each can be transferred via the "Profibus II" module (Profibus
DP - slave) to one or more connected control systems or called up from there.
The Profibus module generates the corresponding command telegrams for the
control system (=> "Standard protocol") from the output data received by the
Profibus master.
The reply telegrams from the control system are then re-converted accordingly
and stored in the input data area for the Profibus master.
In a special "status byte", the Profibus master is informed when the reply data are
available and/or whether the slave acknowledged the command (if no reply data
available).
The byte sequence is "Big Endian", i.e. with values that require 2 or more bytes,
the more significant byte always comes first (Hi, Lo).
Abbreviations used:

6.2.1 Data allocation for Profibus output data

(send data from the Profibus master)
Byte Contents Data / comment
1 RS485 address of the control system This corresponds to the respective RS485
to be addressed address set
2 Command number A list and description of the individual

command numbers can be found under the
A new command is only accepted if Overview of commands (Item 6.3).
this byte had previously been "0"!
3 Number of send bytes (0 - 101) With commands purely for calling up data
"0", otherwise number of the data bytes to
be sent to the control system. The value
can be found in the description of the
individual commands (number of data bytes
under command telegram)
4– Send data The data described under the Overview of

104 commands (command telegram) (D0 –
D100), if available, are transferred here.
Only the first data bytes, stated under
"Number of send bytes", are taken into
consideration.
6.2.2 Data allocation of Profibus input data

(receive data for the Profibus master)
1 RS485 address of the control system Normally the address from the output data
replying
2 Command number or error identifier Normally command number from the output
data.
In the case of error 7FHEX.
In this case, the error code is in byte 4

3 Status byte 00 HEX [ 0]: Module is waiting for a command

from the Profibus master
F0 HEX [240]: Command was sent to the
corresp. control system
FF HEX [255]: Module has received the reply
data from the control system
and/or the control system has
acknowledged the command.
4– Receive data The data described under the "Overview of

104 commands" (reply telegram) (D0 – D100), if
available, are transferred here.
In the case of error (Byte 2 = 7F HEX), the error
code appears in byte 4:
1 = Forbidden data
2 = Unknown command
3 = Checksum incorrect
4 = Profibus module / telegram length incorrect
5 = (currently not used)
6 = Control system / number of send bytes
incorrect
7 = Timeout / control system is not responding
Example:
The example used here is a status query from the "AirControl B" (command 1).
In this example, the "AirControl B" is set to the RS485 address "2".
a) Profibus output data (send data from the Profibus master)

1. byte RS485 address of the desired control system 2
2. byte Command (e.g. status query) 1
* A new command is only recognised
if this byte has previously been "0"!
3. byte Number of send bytes 0
------ from this point, the send data would arrive at the control system unless 3.byte is "0"
b) Profibus input data (receive data for the Profibus master)

1. byte RS485 address of the control system replying 2
2. byte Command or error message 1
[127 with control system error message! ]
3. byte Status byte / Profibus module: 255
------- from this point onwards, the reply data from the control system is received ----------
4. byte D0 (status 1 more significant byte) 0
5. byte D1 (status 1 less significant byte) 0

43. byte D39 /

6.3 . Overview of commands
The individual control system commands for the standard protocol are listed and
explained below.
For each telegram, the transmitted data bytes (useful data) and their significance are
explained.
The interface description only applies to the standard software of the "AirControl B" and
not to “special versions”.

7 Transferring new program to control
1. Switch off supply voltage to the control system;

2. Press the ▲ and 0 keys at the same time and, while doing so, switch the control
system's supply voltage back on.
3. "FLASH: x.xx" now appears in the display.
4. The program (HEX file) can now be transferred to the control system!
5. Once the program has been successfully transferred to the control system,
the supply voltage has to be briefly switched off and on again.
Error in control system's program memory

If an error is detected in the program memory (Flash-EPROM) after switching on
the mains, the following message appears in the temperature display:
"noAPP",
"FLASH" => In such a case, the program must be transferred to the control
system once again!
