HEX390 Installation & Commissioning Instructions September 2016

16

Digital Controller 

This digital 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 (

Δ

) exceeds 27°C and 

the 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 (

Δ

) 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 

Δ

 gets colder, heater 

output increases to maximum.

• 

Optional winter off mode

 

shuts down the fan 

automatically when outside temperature (

Δ

) is less than 

2°C.  This is indicated by 

“Wint off”

 on the unit display.

• 

Optional User System On/Off

 is available in User Menu, 

indicated by “OFF” on unit display.  Press any key to 

return the unit to regular operation.

• 

Optional Filter Timer

 measures the hours run by the fan 

and gives a flashing display when the filter needs to be 

cleaned/replaced.  

• 

Clock function

 

has battery back-up in the event of a 

power failure. Time can be set/adjusted by pressing 

mode         and     ↑ buttons together until “

Entering 

Menus

” then “

Set Clock

” appears.  Time can then be 

adjusted using up & down buttons, once correct time is 

set, press “mode” to save new setting.

• 

Optional Attic Damper Kit

.

  A diverting branch can be 

attached to divert the intake from the outside air to 

the attic, to utilise the heat gain from the roof during 

the winter months. Press mode        and        up arrow 
together until 

‘Damper is on’ 

or 

‘Damp

er is off’ 

displays.  

The user can then select between 

‘Change damp

er? YES’

 

or ‘

Change damp

er? NO’

 displays.  Use the up arrow to 

change between the two settings and press the mode 

key to select.
