CONNECT WITH YOUR CELLPHONE

Requirements: 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network
please note:

If you only have 5GHz Wi-Fi router, you will not be able to complete the connection.
If you are using a dual Wi-Fi router and it broadcast 2 Wi-Fi signals, make sure that your phone is connected with the 2.4GHz Wi-Fi signal, it should be the Wi-Fi signal that next to “_SG”.
If you are using a dual-band Wi-Fi router but it broadcast only 1 Wi-Fi signal, you will have to manage your Wi-Fi router and change the settings to have 2.4GHz Wi-Fi.

Connection via Bluetooth-Blue indicator light blinks rapidly (twice a second) Confirm that the Bluetooth on the smartphone is activated. If you are using an Android device, the location permission must be allowed. Confirm that the smart plug is plugged into a live outlet. Open BN-LING Smart app. A dialogue box will pop up, indicating that the device has been discovered. Tap “Go to add”.

Select the device you are to add.

Follow the instructions on the phone to complete the connection.

You can rename the device when it is successfully added.

For Easy Mode Connection-Blue indicator Light Blink Rapidly (Twice a second).

Confirm the smart plug is plugged into a live outlet
Open BN-LINK Smat app
Choose the”+” symbol
“Socket (wifi)”
Confirm the light status on your plug and follow the App guide.(lfyou don’t see blue light quickly blinking, press On/Off button to reset.)
Set a unique name for this smart plug, choose the room location.

AP Mode (Indicator light blinks once every 2 seconds) If the Easy mode connection failed, please
remove and install the smart plug into your power outlet again. When the indicator is blinking quickly, it is in Easy mode. Hold the power button for about 7 seconds to enter into AP mode. Once you see the indicator light slowly blinking (every 2 seconds), you can start to try the AP mode connection.

First go back to the Add Device”+” interface. “Socket (Wifi). Then choose the “Other Mode” in the top right corner and choose AP Mode.
Made sure the indicator light is flasing slowly and confirm it in App;
Choose your 2.4G Wi-Fi and enter the password and confirm it in App;
Tap “Connect now “and choose Wi-Fi hotspot named “BN-LINK Smart-xxx”, then go back to BN-LINK Smart application;
Wait till successful configuration and then tap “Completed”.

GETTING TO KNOW BN-LINK SMART APP

Note: edit the default names in this interface, for better management.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Setting parameters: Press SET once to enter parameters set up mode. PV screen displays the first menu code “SV” and SV screen displays the value of the above
code. Press SET to toggle the parameters in PV screen and use UP or DOWN to adjust the value. When all parameters are set, press POWER to save and quit. If there is no button operation within 18 seconds during the setting, the system will save the changes and quit setting.
Tips: Hold UP/DOWN button allows fas scroll of a value.

Code I Default I Range I Definition I Explanation

Basic Setting
SV| 100| -58’F-230″F| Set Value| Cut-off temp. When temp rises and reaches SV, heating device will be turned off. When temp drops and reaches SV, cooling device will be turned off.
Hd| | 0.1-25°F| Heating Differential Value| When measured temp PV<SV – Hd, the controller turns on heating equipment.
Cd| | 0.1-25°F| Cooling Differential Value| When measured temp PV>SV + Cd, the controller turns on cooling equipment.
CA| 0| -9-9°F| Calibrate the reading| Optional. If measured temperature is 3 degree higher than the real temperature, set CA=-3.
PT| 0| 0-30| Compressor Time Delay(unit: minute)| Optional.* It defines the time interval of 2 compressor cycles (On-Off)
AH| 0| -58°F-230°F| High temperature alarm| Optional. It will beep once temp exceeds AH. Press any key to stop alarm.
AL| 0| -58’F-230’F| Low temperature alarm| Optional. It will beep once temp exceeds AL Press any key to stop alarm.
Advanced Setting
** NOTE: Once you enter advanced setting, all of your former basic settings will be restored.

How it works

When the probe measured temp PV > SV + Cd, the controller turns on cooling equipment. The cooling indicator is on. If the indicator is flickering, it means the cooling equipment is under compressor delay protection status. When the probe measured temp PV drops and reaches SV, the controller turns off cooling equipment. The cool indicator is off. When the probe measured temp PV < SV – Hd, the controller turns on heating equipment. The heating indicator is on. When the probe measured temp PV rises and reaches SV, the controller turns off heating equipment. The heating indicator is off. When the probe measured temp PV > AH, the beep alarm sounds. Press any button to disable the alarm. When the probe measured temp PV < AL, the beep alarm sounds. Press any button to disable the alarm.
For example, SV=99.5°F, Cd=0.5°F, and Hd=2°F. Step by step instructions: Power on the controller → Press SET once, you will see SV on screen → Press
UP/DOWN to specify 99.5 for SV → Press SET once to select next parameter Hd → Press UP/DOWN to specify 2 for Hd → Press SET once to select next parameter Cd → Press UP/DOWN to specify 0.5 for Hd Press POWER to save and quit.

Once the detected temperature is below 97.5°F (SV – Hd), the controller turns on the heating device. The heating device will be turned off when temp reaches 99.5°F.
Once the detected temperature is over 100°F (SV + Cd), the controller turns on the refrigeration device. The cooling device will be turned off when temp reaches 99.5°F.

Further explanation about Compressor Time Delay (PT):
The time delay is a way of over-riding the temperature sensor so that regardless of detected temperature the output device will not turn on unless the specified time duration has elapsed. Under cooling mode, after the power is on, if the measured temperature is higher than (SV + Cd), the device won’t start the cooling equipment immediately, but will wait for a delay time. Delay time is counted right after the moment the cooling equipment stops. When the time interval of two cooling cycles is larger than the preset delay time, the device will start cooling immediately. (For example, PT=2. It’s been 3 minutes when the temperature reaches the turn-on temperature again. The cooling equipment starts immediately.) When the time interval between two cooling cycles is less than the preset delay, the equipment won’t start working until preset delay is reached. (For example, PT=5. Your cooler stopped 3 minutes ago. Although it’s now reached the turn-on temperature, you have to wait 2 more minutes before your cooler starts again.)

TROUBLE SHOOTING

Heating or cooling device does not turn on when specified temperature is reached.
First please understand that the controller turns off the device when the target temperature is reached. It turns on the device only when the specified temperature is exceeded. The device will be turned on only when the temperature is below (SV – Hd) or over (SV + Cd). Then, check if a PT value is specified. If you’ve specified a PT value, during the delay time, the COOLING indicator on screen will flash. Your device will be turned on after the specified time delay.

The controller displays EEE while beeping.
Please check if the 3.5mm plug of the sensor probe is inserted completely into the jack on side of the controller. If it is plugged in correctly, the probe is likely defective. Please email us at support@bn-link.com for a free probe replacement.

The screen displays LLL.
This means the temperature is below the minimum value that this controller can measure.

The screen displays HHH.
This means the temperature is over the maximum value that this controller can measure.

It keeps beeping when the temperature reaches a certain level.
This is usually because the alarm has been set. When the alarm sounds press any button to disable it.

No power output and screen display.
Please check if the load exceeds the rating of the controller. Remove the load from the controller and push the overload reset button on top of the controller.
