DURA

The DURA parameter sets the time duration in minutes for defrost

cycle operation. This time applies to all types of defrosts and acts as a

fail safe time for those defrosts terminated by coil temperature or the

temperature activated switch. In the event that the sensed temperature

of the coil does not reach the preset termination temperature in the

time allotted by this setting, the defrost will terminate and 

refrigeration will resume in accordance with the applicable settings

(fan control, master comm. control, etc.)

TTYP

The Safe-NET system is capable of terminating defrost activity based

on evaporator coil temperature (TSEN), return air (RAIR), discharge

air (DAIR), time (TIM) or input from a termination temperature 

activated switch (DIGI). When the Safe-NET system is configured to

control defrost, this setting determines which input parameter is used

to terminate a defrost cycle. The DURA setting is always enabled as a

fail-safe defrost duration time in the event a selected termination input

fails. If the failure is such that defrost termination would occur imme-

diately, a 10- minute guaranteed defrost cycle duration is employed.

Note:

The sensed input selected for defrost termination must be installed and
defrost termination set to TSEN for this feature to operate.

STAR

The STAR parameter sets the time of day for the first defrost cycle and

works in conjunction with the NDEF parameter discussed below. This

time setting is for the initial defrost in a 24-hour period. The NDEF

(number of defrosts) determines the number of defrosts that will occur

in a 24-hour period beginning with the STAR (first defrost) parameter.

The maximum number of defrosts allowed in a 24 hour period is 8.

The defrost cycles are spaced evenly across the 24- hour period 

beginning with the STAR time. The formula for calculating defrost

start times is as follows:

Defrost interval = 24/NDEF

First defrost cycle start time = STAR

Second start time = STAR + Interval

Third start time = STAR + 2 X Interval

~

Eighth start time = STAR + 7 X Interval

For example, with a STAR value of 01:00 and an NDEF setting of 4

the defrost cycle start times are:

1:00

NDEF

The NDEF parameter sets the number of defrost cycles in a 24-hour

period. This number works in conjunction with the STAR parameter

discussed above. The NDEF (number of defrosts) determines the 

number of defrosts that occur in a 24-hour period beginning with the

STAR (first defrost) parameter. The maximum number of defrosts

allowed in a 24 hour period is 8. The defrost cycles are spaced evenly

across the 24- hour period beginning with the STAR time. The formula

for calculating defrost start times is as follows:

Defrost interval = 24/NDEF

First defrost cycle start time = STAR

Second start time = STAR + Interval

Third start time = STAR + 2 X Interval

~

Eighth start time = STAR + 7 X Interval

For example, with a STAR value of 01:00 and an NDEF setting of 4,

the defrost cycle start times are:

1:00

TEMPS MENU

The TEMPS menu is used to display the individual temperatures, 

pressures, voltages, current or power factor of connected individual

sensors. The following list shows the order in which the values would

be displayed if all possible sensors were connected. However, the 

Safe-NET display module allows only 10 (ten) of the sensors to be 

connected simultaneously. At this time, there is no known application

where all 10 sensors or all available sensors would be applied.

The order in which the temps are displayed is dependent upon which

sensing devices are installed, as represented to the right. Missing or

non-connected sensors will not appear in the designated sequence.

Average temperatures are available to view so long as the associated

sensing devices are attached.

DSAV= Discharge Air Average

PDAV=Product Average

VALVE MENU

The Valve menu is used to configure temperature control output type

and operational parameters for units whose temperature controlling

device (compressor, VSD, liquid solenoid, suction stop solenoid, EEXP,

EEPR) is controlled by the Safe-NET display module. This menu also

contains maintenance functions to allow manual control of a tempera-

ture controlling device for troubleshooting and repair activity.

A relay module properly connected to the compressor contactor, 

solenoids, etc., is required for temperature regulating device control

functions. Refer to 

Safe-NET Technician’s Manual

, section on 

Safe-NET wiring, for proper equipment, techniques and safety 

considerations.

Note:

Changing these parameters (as well as performing maintenance 
functions) requires that a valid PASSWORD be entered first.

VTYP

This menu item defines the temperature control method applied. This

can consist of electronic evaporator pressure regulating valves, elec-

tronic expansion valves, on/off control of fixed speed compressors,

variable speed drive control of VSD driven compressors, PWM control

of liquid line solenoids and /or suction stop solenoids.

Depending on the temperature control strategy employed, a relay 

module properly connected to the compressor contactor, solenoids,

etc.,  and /or a Safe-NET control module is required for temperature

regulating device control functions. Refer to 

Safe-NET Technician’s

Manual

, section on Safe-NET wiring for proper equipment, techniques

and safety considerations.

Safe-NET display module performing ON/OFF control independent of

a Safe-NET control module, but operating under a control module for

defrost coordination. Such applications could include walk-in coolers

with multiple evaporators.

SELF

Safe-NET display module performing ON/OFF control independent of

a Safe-NET control module. The Safe-NET display module can exist on

a network as a sole entity receiving command from a master device. 

It controls all functions of the fixture if so equipped (defrost, lighting,

dual-temperature operation, temperature control, alarming, etc.)

OnOff

Safe-NET display module acting as user I/O for a Safe-NET control

module. The Safe- NET display module performs the on/off control

and schedules defrost, case lighting, and evaporator fan control

through the Safe-NET display module control outputs.
