After wiring, apply power to the controller. The display should illuminate, showing the current temperature or an initial setup prompt.
5. Instrucións de funcionamento
The AKO D-14323 offers various programmable parameters to suit different refrigeration needs.
5.1 Funcionamento básico
- Visualización da temperatura: The main display shows the current temperature measured by the primary sensor.
- Botón SET: Preme para view or modify the setpoint temperature. Hold to enter parameter programming mode.
- Botón ESC: Used to exit menus or cancel changes.
- Frechas cara arriba/abaixo: Used to adjust values in programming mode or manually initiate defrost (if configured).
- Botón de encendido: Turns the unit on/off or acts as a reset in some configurations.
5.2 Setting the Temperature Setpoint
- Preme o SET button briefly. The current setpoint will flash.
- Usa o Up or Abaixo botóns de frecha para axustar a temperatura desexada.
- Preme SET again to confirm and save the new setpoint, or ESC para saír sen gardar.
5.3 Advanced Parameter Programming
To access advanced parameters (e.g., defrost cycles, differential, auxiliary relay functions), hold the SET button for several seconds until the first parameter code appears. Navigate using the arrow buttons and press SET to enter/confirm values. Refer to the detailed programming guide (usually provided separately or available from AKO) for a complete list of parameters and their functions.
5.4 Defrost Cycle Management
The controller supports various defrost methods, including controlling the compressor, resistance heaters, or fans. Defrost parameters can be adjusted to optimize performance based on the application. An optional probe allows defrosting by temperature.
6. Mantemento
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your temperature controller.
- Limpeza: Limpe periodicamente o panel frontal cun pano suave eamp pano. Non use produtos de limpeza ou disolventes abrasivos.
- Inspeccións: Regularly check wiring connections for tightness and signs of wear or corrosion.
- Comprobación do sensor: Ensure temperature sensors are securely in place and free from damage.
For any internal maintenance or repairs, contact a qualified technician.
7 Solución de problemas
If you encounter issues with your AKO D-14323 controller, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problema | Causa posible | Solución |
|---|---|---|
| A pantalla está en branco | Sen subministración de enerxía; cableado incorrecto | Check power connections and ensure 230V supply. Verify wiring according to the diagram. |
| Lectura incorrecta da temperatura | Faulty sensor; sensor not properly connected or placed | Check sensor connections. Replace sensor if damaged. Ensure sensor is correctly positioned in the controlled environment. |
| Compressor/Fan not operating | Setpoint issue; relay fault; wiring error; parameter misconfiguration | Verify setpoint and differential settings. Check wiring to the compressor/fan. Review advanced parameters for correct configuration. |
