Digital Controller

User Operating Instructions

Congratulations on purchasing a HEX, Heat Recovery Ventilator with Digital 

Controller.  This controller allows the user to adjust fan speed from high to low 

(fan limits are set in the commissioning menu to suit the size of house and 

system layout).
The controller will automatically shut down in summer if outside air temperature 

(OS) exceeds 27°C and home is warm.  
There are a number of other features available at time of installation which will 

need to be discussed with the installer when the unit is commissioned (see Digital 

Controller Setup instructions p6-9).  They include:-

• 

Optional supply air boost 

heater 

(when heater fitted) is 

controlled automatically when 

outside air temp (OS) is less 

than 12°C and home is cold. 

This is indicated by “H” with 

bar symbol in the unit display.  

Heat is controlled over a 

proportional band so that as 

OS gets colder, heater output 

increases to maximum.

• 

Optional winter off 

mode

 shuts down the fan 

automatically when outside 

temperature (OS) is less than 

2°C.  This is indicated by 

“winter” on the unit display.
