1.0 General information

Electronic Flame Controller ERS 01 manual constitutes a

supplement to an operation and maintenance manual of a

ﬁreplace or ﬁreplace insert. Installing the ﬁreplace or ﬁreplace

insert ought to be carried out in compliance with its operation

and maintenance manual.

Careful study of the manual’s content ensures easy and

correct mounting and safe use of the system.

Mounting and installing the ﬁreplace ought to comply with

the local construction regulations.

Electronic Flame Controller ERS 01 controls the entire

combustion cycle from the initial kindling stage to the

ﬁnal ﬁre extinguishing stage. The uniqueness of ERS 01

lies within the software which was tailor-made for the

selected Jøtul and Scan ﬁreplaces and ﬁreplace inserts. The

Electronic Flame Controller has also been equipped with

Uni 270 software which enables the use of ERS 01 with

any ﬁreplace equipped with an external combustion air

inlet.

With the ﬁrst activation of the product, the controller takes

over all the functions responsible for regulating the amount

of air required for the combustion process. According to

the chosen mode of operation, the controller automatically

ignites, maintains the set temperature within the range

+/-5°C and safely extinguishes ﬁre in the ﬁreplace. ERS

01 informs the user about any fuel shortage and low

temperature of exhaust gas. The device also alerts the user

about the risk of overheating and in eect it prevents the

ﬁreplace from damage. When the combustion cycle is over,

the throttle is shut in order to preclude both the ﬁreplace

and the accumulating mass HSS from cooling down.

3.0 Operation safety

The regulator can only be used in a household and similar

facilities.

Before starting the assembly, repairs or maintenance, as well as

during any connection works, please make sure that the mains

power supply is disconnected and that terminals and electric

wires are devoid of voltage.

• The regulator should be installed according o the requirements

of EN 60335-1 standard by a qualiﬁed installer.

• Electronic Flame Controller works on 230 V. Even when the

device is switched o, the connecting joints are still live.

• Disconnect the device from mains supply before opening

the casing

• The regulator cannot be used at variance with its purpose

• The regulator is equipped with electronic disconnection

function (2Y-type operation according to EN 60730-1). It

means that when the regulator is supplied with 230V,

dangerous voltage occurs on pump terminals even if these

pumps are not regulated and the regulator is disabled (with

the use of keyboard).

• The value of the programmable parameters should be

selected appropriately to the parameters of the given

ﬁreplace, considering all the system operation conditions.

Incorrect selection of the parameters can cause malfunction

of the ﬁreplace.

• The programmed parameters should only be altered by a

person familiarized with this manual.

• The electric system in which the regulator operates must be

protected by means of a fuse, selected appropriately to the

applied loads.

• The regulator cannot be used if its casing is damaged.

• In no circumstances can the design of the regulator be

modiﬁed.

• Keep the regulator out of reach of children.

• Do not assemble the device when it is energized.

• Operating the device which is defective or repaired by an

unauthorized service is forbidden.

Fig. 01 Function diagram

4.0 Assembly

The regulator is designed to be used in the environment in

which, at most, dry conducting contamination can occur (2 level

of contamination according to PN-EN 60730-1).

Moreover, the regulator cannot be used in condensation

conditions and cannot be exposed to water.

Important! Included software does not provide appropriate

protection level, which has to be guaranteed by using internal

protection of the installation.

4.1 Regulator installation

The regulator is designed to be installed vertically on a wall, as

shown in ﬁgure „Installing the regulator on a wall”. Cables of

the internal circuits have to be ﬂash-mounted.

Important! Before opening the casing, disconnect power supply.

Installation should be performed at disconnected power supply.

Important! The regulator should be installed by a qualiﬁed and

authorized installer according to the requirements of EN 60335-

1 standard.

Important! The device is not equipped with a fuse which can

be replaced by installer nor by user. If a fuse is burned during

installation or operation, it means that the device is damaged. It

should be sent to the authorized service in order to be repaired.

Method of opening the panel is shown below.

Fig. 02 Method of opening the casing

Fig. 03 Installing the regulator on a wall

The regulator should be installed in such way, to:

• Guarantee a protection level meeting with environmental

requirements

• Provide protection from dust and water

• Not exceed the allowed operation temperature (40°C of the

regulator and 60°C throttle)

• Guarantee air exchange inside the casing

• Prevent from accessing hazardous parts

• Electrical installation, which the regulator is connected to,

should be equipped with a device enabling to disconnect

both supply poles according to regulations applying to

construction of such installations.

4.2 Connecting external circuits

Fig. 04 Regulator interior with terminals

4.2.1 Handling terminals

The regulator is equipped with clamping terminals with springs

which are purposed for connecting cables with bushing tips.

The range of allowable cross section areas of cables connected

to terminals are shown in a table below:

Circuit type Network circuits

Low-voltage circuits 0.75÷1 mm2*

Low-voltage circuits 0.25÷0.75 mm2

*For installation with a wire cable, the maximum cable cross

section is 1.5 mm2

In order to provide appropriate cooperation of the cable with

a terminal, the length of not insulated ending of the cable and

bushing tip should be within the range of 8÷10 mm.

Cable is inserted into a terminal by pushing a button on this

terminal with a ﬂat screwdriver, inserting the cable tip (with a

collet) and releasing the button.

Fig. 05 Handling clamping terminals

4.2.2 Connecting network circuits

Important! The device should be installed when the power

supply is disconnected.

The regulator is adapted for power supply of 230V~, 50Hz.

Supply is connected to terminals marked with „->”, „L” and „N”.

Power cables for supplying 230V network devices should

be routed in such a way as to prevent their contact with

cables connected with sensors and other low-voltage units;

additionally, each cable cannot be in contact with surfaces

with temperature exceeding nominal operation temperature of

these cables

Fig. 06 Connecting power supply

4.2.3 Temperature sensor installation

The ERS 01 regulator cooperates with K-type thermocouples.

Measurement range of supplied exhaust gases sensor is

50÷1150°C; the sensor should be installed on a ﬂue where the

exhaust gasses come out of the ﬁreplace. The opening for

inserting a sensor should be 6mm in diameter. Active length of

a sensor cover is 70mm.

Supplied sensor is equipped with a 2m cable.

Sensor cables should be connected according to colors on the

picture. Connecting the sensor in reverse way will cause indication

errors. If, during ignition of the ﬁreplace, the temperature of

exhaust gases reaches app. 100°C, the regulator will report an

alarm of incorrect connection of the sensor no. 6 (described in

alarms menu in chapter 11.0). In such case, change polarity of the

connected exhaust gases sensor (exchange cables).

Important! Cables of thermoelectric sensors cannot be

extended with standard cables.

Fig. 07 Handling clamping terminals

In order to verify the accuracy of temperature sensor connection,

check the reaction of the regulator by putting the ﬂame (e.g.:

from a lighter) close to the sensor.

Sensor cables should be connected according to colors in the

picture. Connecting the sensor in reverse way will cause indication

errors. If, during ignition of the ﬁreplace, the temperature of

exhaust gases reaches app. 100°C, the regulator will report an

alarm of incorrect connection of the sensor no. 6 (described in

alarms menu in chapter 11.0). In such case, change polarity of the

connected exhaust gases sensor (exchange cables).

4.2.4 PPD throttle installation

Important! The throttle should be installed on the adapter for

intake air of the ﬁreplace. The throttle itself should be in such

distance from a heat source, that the temperature in a place

of installations is not higher than 60°C. It is a temperature

of resistance of throttle elements. These elements can be

damaged if this temperature is exceeded.

The throttle should be calibrated together with the regulator.

Calibration process is described in chapter 12.4. Calibration

process can be performed outside the ﬁreplace by connecting the

throttle to the regulator.

The regulator controls air inﬂow to a furnace with the use of

PPD throttle (intake air throttle).

The throttle should be ﬁtted to the diameter of intake adapter.

Standard throttle is 100mm in diameter.

A „spiro” tube can be used in order to supply air between the

ﬁreplace and throttle and between the throttle and air supply

point.

Fig. 08 Throttle connection

Tube-throttle and tube-ﬁreplace connection points should be

sealed, e.g.: with the use of aluminium insulation tape.

The air throttle does not have any orientation and it does not

matter on which side the input or output section is located.

4.2.5 PPD throttle connection

The servomechanism which controls throttle’s butterﬂy is

equipped with a 30 cm cable and ended with electric cube. The

throttle should be connected with a three-wired cable with

a minimum cross-section area of 0.25 mm2. The maximum

allowable cable length should not exceed 10 m. In the

environment of high level of electromagnetic interferences, the

operation of servomechanism can be unstable. In such case, it

is recommended to use shielded cable in order to connect the

throttle. Such shield should not be connected anywhere and

should be insulated at both ends.

Fig. 09 Connecting PPD throttle to the regulator

Important! Cables coming out of the servomotor are ended

with an electric cube with anti-interference capacitor inserted

between PWM and GND lines. Its removal can cause improper

operation of the throttle and damage of the servomotor.

5.0 Closing the casing

In order to close the casing, fasten the cover by inserting its

cavities into edgings in a base.

Fig. 10 Closing the casing - step one

Push the cover in the place indicated by the red arrow until you

hear a clear sound of a latch

Fig. 11 Closing the casing - step two

6.0 Maintenance settings

The access and any changes introduced to the maintenance

parameters are to be authorized with a password.

Fig. 12 User log-in screent

To log in, place the cursor on the correct digit by means of a

navigating knob and click it. When the digit starts blinking,

rotate the knob to change the values. To conﬁrm the value,

click the button again. This action moves the cursor to another

position in the menu. To conﬁrm the log-in, press OK. To reject

the log-in, press CANCEL. If the password is incorrect, the ﬂame

controller shows a message with a request for conﬁrmation of

the operation.

Fig. 13 Wrong password message

Next the log-in process is to be repeated. If no access code

is entered (0000 password is left on the screen) and an OK

command is conﬁrmed, the ﬂame controller shows the ‘read

only’ parameter values.

Attention! Parameters should only be modiﬁed by authorized

people with appropriate training and technical knowledge.

Setting and saving inappropriate parameters may result in the

malfunction of the ﬁreplace or damage.

Description of parameters:

Tmin - Parameter limiting the possibility of presetting minimum

temperature of exhaustion gases. Tzadmin value which is set by

the user (from “Burning options menu”) can not be lower than

the value deﬁned by this parameter.

Tmax - Parameter limiting the possibility of presetting

maximum temperature of exhaustion gases. Tzadmax value

which is set by the user (from “Burning options menu”) can not

be higher than the value deﬁned by this parameter.

Talarm - ﬁreplace overheat alarm reporting temperature.

Hysteresis 1 - Auxiliary hysteresis (insensitivity) of passing

through Toperation temperature.

Hysteresis 2 - Auxiliary hysteresis (insensitivity) used for

handling of the ﬁreplace overheat alarm.

It is not recommended to set values that are lower than 10°C.

Kp - Ampliﬁcation of proportional segment of PID algorithm for

controlling regulator’s throttle.

Ti - integration time of integration action of PID algorithm for

controlling regulator’s throttle.

Setting 0 value disables regulator’s integration segment.

Td - dierentiation time of PID algorithm for controlling the

ﬂame controller’s throttle in phase I of the automatic operating

mode

Setting 0 value switches the dierentiation segment of the ﬂame

regulator o.

T% optimum – optimum level of throttle opening which is

reached when actions of all PID segments have no inﬂuence on

the throttle. (value added at the end of PID regulator).

tP-PID - Time interval at which the throttle will be set.

Decreasing the value of this time stabilizes the object but

shortens service life of the throttle. It is recommended to set

values of 10÷20 seconds.

Uni max - Maximum value of PID regulator’s accumulator of

integration action.

Too high value of this parameter will lead to higher oscillations of

the object but will also decrease an error in a steady state.

Uni min - Minimum value of PID regulator’s accumulator of

integration action.

This value should be set at least to P% optimum parameter value.

Und max - Maximum value of PID regulator’s accumulator of

dierentiation action.

It is not recommended to set values higher than 60 because it will

cause signiﬁcant variations of throttle during instant and rapid

temperature increases or decreases.

Important! Kp, Ti, Td, P% optimum, tP-PID, Uni max, Uni min,

Und max parameters have a signiﬁcant inﬂuence on the

burning process; it is not recommended to modify them by

persons who are unaware of inﬂuence of this parameters on

the regulated object.

Throttle supply- Switches the function of supplying the throttle.

Setting period value means that the regulator will cut o supply

from the throttle after setting the throttle (changing its position)

until the moment in which the throttle is re-set (after setting, the

throttle can be easily shifted by hand). Setting constant value will

enable constant supply mode. The throttle will constantly return

to the preset position even if its butterﬂy is shifted, e.g.: manually.

It is recommended to set the period value if the throttle is not able

to stabilize and tends to “dance”. Such situation is caused by the fact

that the throttle is installed in a strong electromagnetic ﬁeld and

its constant movement is a result of interferences on PWM input to

the servomechanism. If throttle variations are signiﬁcant, it means

that the supply can be cut-o in a position which is unfavorable for

burning process. Therefore, this parameter should be set individually

to the particular application.

Td no fuel - Dierentiation time of fuel shortage detection

algorithm.

T lighting – lighting operating mode, phase I

t lighting – period of lighting process. Timer activated on

exceeding the set temperature of exhaust gas during automatic

operating mode

Kp lighting I – ampliﬁcation of proportional segment of PID

algorithm for controlling the ﬂame controller’s throttle in phase

I of lighting process

Ti lighting I – integration time of integration action of PID

algorithm for controlling the ﬂame controller’s throttle in phase

I of lighting process

Td lighting I – dierentiation time of PID algorithm for

controlling the ﬂame controller’s throttle in phase I of lighting

process

T% lighting I – optimum level of throttle opening which

is reached when the no actions of any PID segments have

any inﬂuence on the throttle (value added at the end of PID

controller) in phase I of lighting process.

Uni min lighting I – minimum value of PID controller’s

accumulator of integration action in phase I of lighting process.

Uni max lighting I - maximum value of PID controller’s

accumulator of integration action in phase I of lighting process.

Und max lighting I – maximum value of PID controller’s

accumulator of integration action in phase I of lighting process.

Kp lighting II – ampliﬁcation of proportional segment of PID

algorithm for controlling the ﬂame controller’s throttle in phase

II of lighting process.

Ti lighting II – integration time of integration action of PID

algorithm for controlling the ﬂame controller’s throttle in phase

II of lighting process.

Td lighting II – dierentiation time of PID algorithm for

controlling the ﬂame controller’s throttle in phase II of lighting

process.

T% lighting II – optimum level of throttle opening reached

when no actions of any PID segments have any inﬂuence on the

throttle (value added at the end of PID controller) in phase II of

lighting process.

Uni min lighting II – minimum value of PID controller’s

accumulator of integration action in phase II of lighting process

Uni max lighting II – minimum value of PID controller’s

accumulator of integration action in phase II of lighting process

While phase I of lighting switches into phase II, the value of

UNI controller’s accumulator of interaction action is calculated

in order to preclude any rapid actions in the throttle during the

transition between phase I and phase II. It is recommended not

to restrict the accumulator of interaction action and to set the

parameter value to a maximum level.

Und max lighting II – maximum value of PID controller’s

accumulator of integration action in phase II of the lighting

process.

T% wait – value of throttle position during the stoppage

stage before the performed blow-by in phase II of automatic

operating mode.

T% scavenge – value of throttle position during the blow-by in

phase II of automatic operating mode.

Scavenge count – volume of failed blow-bys disabling the ﬂame

controller or switching the controller into stop operating mode

(depending on the Automatic Switch O parameter in phase II

of automatic operating mode).

Wait time – period of throttle’s stoppage (set values of T% wait).

Scavenge time – the period of time with throttle’s slot open

during the blow-by process (set values of P% blow-by).

7.0 Typical malfunctions of the system

Symptoms What to do

The ﬂame controller’s display is

unreadable

1. set the display contrast in MENU/handling/display

2. set the display brightness in MENU/handling/display

The ﬂame controller does not signal

the shortage of fuel

Set the alarm sounds and volume in MENU/handling/sound

In spite of reaching a preset

temperature, the regulator does not

close the throttle or closes it with

delay.

It is a normal operation. Long period of reaching a preset value resulted in ﬁlling the

accumulator of integrating action of PID algorithm. Shortly, the regulator will start closing

the throttle searching for optimum opening.

The regulator disabled the manual

control mode and begun to control the

throttle manually.

When the alarm temperature is reached (setting Talarm parameter in service menu), the

regulator will disable the manual operation mode and switch to automatic control. It

prevents damaging the ﬁreplace left in a manual mode with opened intake air throttle.

The air throttle is closed for most of

the time and opens for short periods

and closes again.

If during the burning process in automatic cycle the exhaustion gases throttle is closed for

most of the time and will open only for short periods of time, it means that the amount

of fuel in relation to the ﬁreplace preset temperature is too high. Increase the preset

temperature or decrease the amount of fuel

The intake air throttle is opened

at 60÷100% and exhaust gases

temperature is decreasing.

Fuel amount which is supplied to the ﬁreplace furnace is insucient to maintain

temperature of fumes on the preset level. Supply more fuel to the furnace or decrease the

preset temperature.

In spite of the fact that the throttle is

closed, the ﬁreplace cools down very

slowly or continues to heat up..

1. Such situation can be a result of too much fuel supplied to the ﬁreplace

2. All additional air inlets to the ﬁreplace should be closed.

3. Chimney draught is too high; decrease it by half-closing the throttle on the ﬁreplace (if

present)

4. Intake air throttle provides a minimum clearance in order to protect against accumulation

of gases in the ﬁreplace which would lead to ignition in case of air ﬂowing into the ﬁreplace

(e.g.: as a result of opening the ﬁreplace door).

High temperature oscillations observed. 1. If oscillations are lower than ±10°C, it is a normal situation.

2. Inappropriately installed exhaust gases temperature sensor (too far from the furnace)

3. In order to ﬁnd the optimum level of opening the throttle, an integration segment of

the regulator caused oscillations. It should be lower and lower until the ﬁreplace reaches

the optimum level of opening the throttle and exhaustion gases temperature is stabilized.

4. If oscillations persist or even increase to extend ±25°, it can be a result of inappropriately

selected regulator settings; in such case - contact the installer.

Important! The manufacturer reserves a right for making changes in construction and software without previous notice.

9.1 Presetting temperatures

Presetting temperature in the regulator is performed in steps

which are related to preset temperatures of exhaust gases. To

achieve more precisely optimized working temperatures it is

recommended to reduce the temperature range between Tzmin

and Tzmax. There are 11 positions for presetting temperature of

exhaust gases in the regulator. Temperatures corresponding to

particular position depend on user parameters setting.

User sets a minimum value of preset temperature (for position

no. 1) with the use of Tzmin parameter and maximum value of

preset temperature (for position no. 11) with the use of Tzmax

(Applicable parameters see section “Burning options”). After

setting Tzmin and Tzmax values, the regulator will automatically

calculate position thresholds from 2 to 10 proportionally

according to ﬁgure below.

Fig. 24 Preset temperature positions

Temperatures in the ERS 01 regulator are preset directly from

the main window or via menu system.

In order to determine a suitable working temperature, it is

necessary to take into account several dierent factors, such as:

the length of connection to the chimney, draught in the smoke

duct, the quality and volume of ﬁrewood. If the user observes

the temperature recommended by the producer is not sucient

for the eective functioning of a ﬁreplace, the user can select

another temperature out of 11 set temperature options (by

increasing or reducing the temperature’s value).

Attention! It is not recommended to use low temperature

ranges.

Attention! For restoring default parameters see section

“Restoring default parameters”.

In order to preset temperature directly from the main window:

By turning the knob, set the

cursor on temperature values

in a frame. There is a number

of position visible on a left

side of the frame.

Pushing the knob in select

mode will result in blinking

value and switching into

edition mode.

Turning the knob in edition

mode results in changing

this value.

Click again in order to

conﬁrm changed value and

to switch into selection

mode (the regulator

accepted the value and will

take appropriate action).

Presetting temperatures from menu level is performed similarly.

Selecting “Preset temperature” in the menu enables to choose

11 positions of a preset temperature. After entering the menu,

the cursor will position itself by default on currently preset

temperature.

To leave the menu without selecting any temperature, click

Return Icon.

In order to select operation mode of the regulator, select

“Operation modes” in MENU. The lower menu level with

operation modes will be displayed on the screen. Turn the knob

to select the required mode

ENGLISH

Fig. 25 Operating modes icons

The current operating mode is shown on the display by means

of a corresponding icon in the right part of the main screen. (Fig.

Main Screen).

If the temperature exceeds Toperation on activating the ﬂame

controller, the device instantly moves into automatic operating

mode. If the temperature is below Toperation, the ﬂame

controller activates the kindling mode of operation. Regardless

of the activated operating mode on the moment of switching

on the device, the user can always choose a dierent mode from

the available list of operating modes

10.1 “Lighting” operation mode

This operating mode is used for lighting in a cold ﬁreplace. It

is intended for heating the ﬁreplace until it reaches lighting

temperature (higher than temperature reached via the

automatic mode of operation), and subsequently sustaining

this temperature in the ﬁreplace and ﬁnally enabling a smooth

transition to the automatic mode of operation.

Ignition mode will be active until the temperature of exhaust

gases reaches Tz-dToperation value (dTpraca is available in

“Burning options” menu); then, the regulator will switch into

automatic operation mode

The lighting mode is selected from the menu ‘Operating Modes’

and is divided into two phases outlined below.

Fig. 26 “Lighting” mode screen

10.1.1 “Lighting” - phase I

The ﬂame controller operation in the ﬁrst phase

of lighting mode consists of opening the

throttle in order to kindle fuel in the ﬁreplace

easily. Having exceeded the preset temperature

of the automatic mode (the current position of

the preset temperature of the automatic

mode), the device activates the timer of the

lighting stage.

If after this time the current temperature is higher than the

preset temperature of the automatic mode of operation, the

ﬂame controller switches into the second stage of lighting

process

10.1.2 “Lighting” - phase II

In the second phase of lighting, ﬂame controller

slowly shuts the throttle so that the exhaust

gas temperature reaches the temperature of

automatic operation parameters. When the

exhaust gas temperature levels with the preset

temperature of automatic mode, the ﬂame

controller switches into the automatic mode of

operation

10.2 “Automatic” operation mode

This mode is purposed for normal operation of the ﬁreplace

when it is ignited. The mode consists of three phases.

Fig. 27 3 Operation screen in “Automatic” mode

10.2.1 “Automatic” - phase I

Automatic operation mode consists in dosing

the intake air in such a way as to maintain a

preset temperature level of exhaust gas.

When the exhaust gas temperature is lower

than the preset temperature of the automatic

mode, the ﬂame controller opens the throttle

gradually. When the exhaust gas temperature

is higher than the preset value, the device starts shutting the

throttle to achieve the optimal throttle position for the current

conditions in the ﬁreplace.

On exhaustion of the fuel, the ﬂame controller opens the

throttle in order to sustain the preset temperature of the

exhaust gas.

If the temperature of exhaust gas falls below the temperature

Toperation (the animation of ﬂames on the main screen

disappears), the ﬂame controller switches into the second

phase of the automatic mode of operation

10.2.2 “Automatic” - phase II

If the exhaust gas temperature during the

automatic mode phase 1 decreases in relation

to the preset temperature by the value of dT

parameter (the parameter located in the

Shortage of Fuel Menu) and the ﬂame controller

detects a temperature drop, then the ﬂame

controller switches Into the second phase of

the automatic mode.

In this phase, the ﬂame controller shuts the throttle slowly

which reduces the air intake supply.

The stage is terminated when:

• the exhaust gas temperature value decreases below

Toperation (phase III initiated)

• the ﬂame controller detects an increase of the exhaust gas

temperature and returns to phase I, continuing combustion

process.

Fig. 28 Automatic mode – phase II reaction

10.2.3 “Automatic” - phase III

When the exhaust gas temperature decreases

below Toperation (the animation of ﬂames in

the Main Screen disappears), the ﬂame

controller switches into phase II of the

automatic mode.

During phase III, the throttle is kept shut for 5

minutes. After the elapse of 5 minutes, the ﬂame

controller opens the throttle to perform the ﬁreplace blow-by

which also lasts 5 minutes. The ﬂame controller switches back

to phase I of the automatic mode if the temperature after the

blow-by reaches the value of Toperation. If the temperature

does not reach the required value, the throttle is shut for

another 5 minutes.

After 3 failed blow-bys (the temperature value above

Toperation), the ﬂame controller activates STOP mode of

operation or switches o according to ‘Automatic Switch o’

procedure.

10.3 “Manual” operation mode

Manual mode gives possibility to set the intake air throttle

manually without any control of the regulator, which can cause

dangerous heating of the ﬁreplace. When the temperature of

exhaust gases reaches temperature deﬁned by Talarm parameter

will report the alarm and switch the operation mode into

automatic in order to cool the ﬁreplace down.

Manual mode enables setting the throttle manually.

In order to set the throttle manually in manual operation

mode , turn the knob in the main window to set the cursor on

a position enabling to open the throttle and enable edition by

pushing the knob.

In edition mode (blinking value), turn the knob in order to

change position of the air throttle (there is no need to conﬁrm

the value).

11.0 Alarms

Abnormalities in operation of the regulator are reported as

alarms.

The regulator is equipped with an intelligent alarm function. It

means that the regulator identiﬁes the type of alarm situation

and performs appropriate alarm actions depending on its

character.

When there is a triangle icon blinking in the upper right

corner of the main screen (where the active operation icon is

displayed), it means that an alarm situation occurred. Now, the

Alarms menu provides access to a content and code number of

the alarm reported by regulator (ﬁg. below).

Attention! The code marking is useful during alarm

identiﬁcationtt.

Fig. 30 Alarm screen

List of alarms

Code 01; alarm “Overheated ﬁreplace”

The alarm is activated when the temperature of exhaust gas has

reached the dangerous level of 500°C in the smoke pipe (Talarm

in maintenance settings)). The ﬁreplace is overheated. The

regulator will close the intake air throttle in order to decrease

temperature of exhaust gases. When temperature of exhaust

gases drops below Toperation - Hysteresis 2, the regulator will

disable the alarm. If the regulator is in operation mode other

than automatic (e.g.: manual), it will switch into automatic

operation mode. If the alarm repeats too often, it can indicate

that preset temperature is close to alarm temperature. Tmax

parameter in Options menu should be changed.

This alarm indicates improper burning process; too much air

gets into the ﬁreplace combustion chamber. All additional

ﬁreplace air intakes should be closed and air supply should be

provided only through the throttle controlled by the regulator.

ENGLISH

Code 02; alarm “Tc sensor damage”

This alarm is reported when a temperature on exhaust gas

sensor exceeds 1115°C. It indicates that a measurement range of

both sensor and regulator is exceeded

Code 03; alarm “Tc connection error”

This alarm will be reported when the exhaust gases temperature

sensor (thermocouples) is connected incorrectly. The alarm will

occur when exhaust gases temperature during burning in the

ﬁreplace reaches approximately 100°C. Change the polarization

of exhaust gases sensor cables connection.

Code 04; alarm “Caution ‼! Attempt of deactivating the

regulator at high temperature”

This message will be displayed in situation when the user will try

to switch the regulator o in spite of the fact that temperature

of the jacket (on Tc sensor) is higher than Toperation set value.

Select Yes in order to switch the regulator o and completely

close the intake air throttle (in spite of setting a dierent value

of Throt.o/put down). It is not recommended to switch the

regulator o at high temperatures.

Code 05; alarm “Fuel shortage”

Message indicating shortage of fuel in the ﬁreplace furnace.

It indicates that the regulator detected fuel shortage in the

ﬁreplace furnace. This message can be displayed only in

automatic operation mode; if it is reported too often and in

inappropriate moments, it means that the function of fuel

shortage detection requires calibration. Detailed description of

parameters of fuel shortage detection function is described in

chapter “Fuel shortage detection”. Fuel shortage detection can

be disabled. In such case, message will not be displayed.

12.0 Options menu

Icons displayed in “Options” provide access to particular

settings connected with burning process and operation of

regulator outputs. Detailed description of particular positions

is included in sections below.

12.1 Burning options

Burning settings of the regulator are made in this menu. Below,

there is a detailed description of parameters.

Tset min - Minimum preset temperature of exhaust gases in the

ﬁreplace. According to the value of this parameter, the regulator

will calculate temperature steps. Value of this parameter is

assigned to position 1 of temperature presetting steps.

Tset max - Maximum preset temperature of exhaust gases in

the ﬁreplace. According to the range spread between Tmax

and Tmin, the regulator will calculate thresholds of a preset

temperature values. Value of this parameter is assigned to

position 11 of temperature presetting steps.

Twork – – casual operation temperature of a ﬁreplace. When

the temperature of exhaust gas in the smoke pipe reaches the

set values, the ﬂame controller activates the ﬂames animation

in the main display. If the temperature of exhaust gas is higher

than Twork parameter, the ﬂame controller, after switching

on, starts running in automatic operation mode phase I. When

the ﬁreplace is cooling down and the temperature of exhaust

gas decreases below Twork –Hysteresis 1, the ﬂame controller

switches into automatic operation phase II.

Throt. safe mode – the throttle position during power supply

failure.

In the areas with chronic power supply disruptions, the ﬁreplace

can still be used. In order to operate the ﬁreplace, the user has

to set the throttle parameter on a dierent value than 0 and

operate the ﬁreplace manually by means of a manual throttle.

The manual throttle is connected in-line to the throttle which is

operated through the ﬁreplace.

When the ﬂame controller is on (standard operation) the

additional manual throttle is to be fully open. Any other position

of the manual throttle results in the faulty operation of the ﬂame

controller.

Attention! In case of power supply loss, the throttle closure is

determined by the default setting at 50%.

Auto o – if the temperature drops below Toperation-Histeresis1

and value YES is set on the screen, the ﬂame controller shuts

the throttle and starts the scavenging process (blow-bys). If the

temperature does not increase in the ﬁreplace above Toperation

value after several failed scavenging cycles (blow-bys), the

ﬂame controller switches o. If this option is not deactivated

by setting NO, the ﬂame controller shuts the throttle once an

extinguishing extension period is over and switches into STOP

operation mode.

Attention! To restore the default settings see „Restoring default

parameters”.

12.2 Fuel shortage detection

The regulator is equipped with a fuel shortage detection

function. This function can be active only in automatic

operation mode.

Principal of operation of fuel detection is the following: when

as a result of burning, the temperature drops in relation to a

preset temperature by value of dT fuel shortage parameter, the

regulator will enable a dierentiate algorithm and will test the

furnace temperature dropping rate. If the temperature dropping

rate is higher than No fuel det. min but lower than No fuel det.

max, the regulator will report “No fuel” message and conﬁrm

it by three short sound signals. Next message will be reported

after the Fuel prompt time elapses (if the aforementioned

conditions are met again).

The following parameters are used to operate functions:

No fuel detect - switches the fuel shortage detection function

on or o. Switching the function o will cause that messages

and sound signals of fuel shortage will not be reported.

dT no fuel - Tz-Tc temperatures dierence, from which the

regulator will detect fuel shortage.

No fuel alert - time interval for displaying fuel shortage

messages.

No fuel thr. min. - minimum exhaust gases temperature

dropping rate at which the regulator will report fuel shortage,

provided that other conditions are met (e.g.: throttle opening

or temperature dierence). Value 2 represents the lowest

dropping rate, higher values represent higher exhaustion gases

temperature dropping rate;

No fuel thr. max - maximum exhaust gases temperature

dropping rate over which the regulator will not detect fuel

shortage. Higher values represent higher temperature dropping

rate.

P% min auto II –automatic mode stage II activated - the throttle

positions on the ﬁreplace temperature fall to the value of

Toperation.

dT auto II –automatic mode stage II activated - the dierence of

temperature in time t auto II switches the ﬂame controller back

to phase I on reaching the set temperature.

t auto II –automatic mode stage II activated - the time of

temperature increase detection dT auto II.

When the ﬁreplace door is opened (e.g.: in order to add fuel), the

temperature of exhaust gases will begin to decrease rapidly. If

during door opening the regulator reports fuel shortage messages,

No fuel det. max. parameter should be slightly increased.

If the “Fuel shortage” message is reported too often, the Fuel

prompt time should be extended.

Fig. 31 Operation of fuel shortage detection

Fig. 32 Temperature decrease rate setting

12.3 Fireplaces

In this menu the user selects the model of the ﬁreplace

cooperating with the ﬂame controller. The device contains

16 separate pieces of software intended for Jøtul and Scan

ﬁreplaces and ﬁreplace inserts as well as a general piece of

software „Uni 270” for any ﬁreplace with an external air inlet.

Each and every time the ﬁreplace model is selected from the list

and conﬁrmed with OK, the individual parameters of the selected

ﬁreplace are loaded.

12.4 Throttle calibration

In order to calibrate the throttle, a visual access to its interior is

required. When the throttle is built over, the calibration process

will be impossible to perform.

The throttle calibration process can be performed outside the

ﬁreplace by connecting it directly to the regulator.

Calibration applies to the throttle + regulator couple; if any of

these is replaced or repaired, re-calibrate.

After installation of the ﬁreplace and regulator, calibrate the

throttle. It consists in adjusting the throttle to the regulator

manually.

ENGLISH

When the throttle calibration menu is enabled, the intake air

throttle will be closed automatically. Position a cursor on the

throttle icon and push the regulator knob. Corrected value starts

blinking. By turning the knob, move the throttle left or right. It

is possible to correct throttle position within a range of ±7°. Set

a value which provides the best closing of the throttle (the best

perpendicularity of a butterﬂy/ﬂap to the throttle axis).

Correct Incorrect

Calibrate the throttle only once during installation of the

ﬁreplace.

Calibration values will not be reset when default settings are

restored.

12.5 Service settings

Access to service parameters menu is protected with a

password. Settings in this menu are dedicated for the installer/

serviceman.

Fig. 33 User log-in screen

Detailed description of parameters is available in the installation

manual.

If no access code is provided (0000 value will be left), the

regulator will show the “read only” parameter values included

in the menu.

Important! Parameters should be modiﬁed only by persons

with appropriate training or technical knowledge. Saving

inappropriate parameters can cause improper operation of the

ﬁreplace or its damage.

12.6 Restoring default parameters

This menu enables to restore default parameters and settings.

In the log-in screen, enter 0002, conﬁrm it and the regulator

will restore user’s default values only. Service parameters and

throttle calibration will not be changed.

Prior to restoration, the regulator will report a message with

request for conﬁrmation of operation.

12.7 Default parameters table

The regulator is equipped with a built-in table of default

parameters. In order to check default values of parameters that

are restored in the regulator when the “restore parameters”

request is set, enter 0005 in service settings log-in window.

Conﬁrm with OK, and the regulator will open the default

parameters table.

13.0 Handling menu

This menu is dedicated to the user. It enables to make basic

changes in regulator handling.

13.1 Handling\Settings menu

Consists of:

Rating plate - enables to read the information about a version

of device equipment and software.

Language - enables to change the language of descriptions. The

following language version are available: Polish, English, Czech,

German, Italian, French.

Encoder’s direction - enables to invert reaction on turning the

knob in ellipsoid menu.

Delay - time of inactivity, in seconds, after which the menu is

exited automatically and screen and knob backlight is disabled

Menu speed - enables to set the animation rate of ellipsoid

Ambiente light - enables to set encoder’s pulsing backlight after

disabling a display (after timeout has elapsed). This function is

used in dark compartments. The encoder’s backlight pulsing is

maintained after switching the regulator o.

13.2 Handling\Screen menu

This menu provides access to set screen options. Turning the

knob will result in switching between ﬁelds of backlight and

contrast settings.

Fig. 35 Display options screen

By turning the knob, set the marker (white picture on a black

background) on a desired position and push the knob in order to

activate edition mode (Digital value starts blinking).

Now, set the desired level of the parameter and conﬁrm by

pushing the knob again. After this operation, the cursor is in

selection mode; next value can be now changed in similar way.

Reversing colors on the display - enables to switch on a display

negative function. All colors will be reversed.

After making changes, set the cursor on OK or CANCEL, and

accordingly conﬁrm or discard changes. Setting both options

results in exiting to menu.

13.3 Handling\Volume menu

This menu provides access to sound settings in the regulator.

ENGLISH

Fig. 36 Sound options screen

Volume settings are made similarly as contrast and backlight

settings.

Disabling conﬁrmation of knob movement by a sound signal

causes that the knob movements are not conﬁrmed with

any sound signals. Settings of this parameter are made by

positioning the cursor in selection mode on the icon and

pushing the knob.

Enabling alarm sounds causes reporting alarm actions with a

sound signal. Disabling this option will activate quiet alarm:

only by blinking display. Alarms will not be conﬁrmed by any

sound signal (regardless of volume potentiometer setting). This

parameter is activated by positioning the cursor in selection

mode on the icon and pushing the knob.

14.0 Disabling

Switches the regulator o. When this menu is selected, a

question whether to switch the regulator o is displayed.

Fig. 37 “Switching o” screen

When disabling function is conﬁrmed by selecting YES, the

intake air throttle will be set to Throt.o/put down parameter

value (this parameter is described in chapter “Burning options”).

However, if the water jacket temperature is higher than

Toperation value, the regulator will report the following

message: “Attempt of deactivating the regulator at high

temperature”. Conﬁrmation by selecting YES will cause

regulator to switch o and operation of pumps will be stopped.

The intake air throttle will be closed completely (in order to

prevent the ﬁreplace from damaging).

Selecting NO will result in exiting to the main screen and further

operation of the regulator.

The regulator can also be switched o by

pushing the knob and holding it for 3 seconds

while the main screen is displayed. The Fig.

“Switching o” screen conﬁrmation will be

displayed.

The regulator is equipped with an internal battery enabling

to close the throttle in case of supply shortage. After supply is

restored, the regulator will switch on automatically and start

operating.
