Key operation instruction

Power On/Off

When the controller working normally, press and hold INK BIRD-IHC-200-Plug-n
-Play-Humidity-Controller-03 key simultaneously for 3 seconds to enter the condition of power off, all the display and output would be turnoff. On the condition of power off, press and hold INK BIRD-
IHC-200-Plug-n-Play-Humidity-Controller-03 key simultaneously for 1 second to enter the condition of normal measuring.

Enquiry Differential Value

When the controller working normally, short press INK BIRD-IHC-200-Plug-n
-Play-Humidity-Controller-03key once, then the humidification differential (HD) wil be displayed; Short press differential (DD) will be displayed. Two seconds later, the display of humidity will be return to the normal display mode. once, then the dehumidification

Enquiry Measuring Temperature

Press INK BIRD-IHC-200-Plug-n-Play-Humidity-
Controller-03 and key simultaneously, current temperature value displaying on PV screen. Release the key for 2 seconds to return to the normal display mode. .

How to Set Parameters

When controller working normally, press and hold key for 3 seconds to enter parameters setting mode, PV screen displays the first menu code “HS”, while SV screen displays according setting value. Press key to page down the menu then the code would be displayed, press INK BIRD-IHC-200-Plug-n-Play-Humidity-
Controller-03 key to change the current parameter values. After finished settings, press and hold key for 3 seconds at any status to save the parameter setting value and return to the normal displaying mode of humidity. During setting, if there is no operation for 10 seconds, system will quit the menu automatically and return to the mode of normal humidity displaying without saving the parameters modification.

Temperature Control Range Setting (HS, HD, DD)

When controller works normally, LED displays current measured value of humidity, then starting the recognition and translation of humidifying and dehumidifying automatically.
When the measured humidity PV≥HS (Humidity Set Value) + DD (Dehumidification Differential Value), entering into the status of dehumidification, indicator lamp of dehumidification will on, relay of dehumidification will work. When the dehumidification indicator light is flickering, the dehumidifying equipment is being in the status of delay protection. When the measured temperature PV≤HS (Humidity Set Value), the dehumidification indicator lamp will off, and the dehumidification relay stops working.
When the measured humidity PV≤HS (Humidity Set Value) – HD (Humidification Differential Value), entering into the status of humidification, indicator lamp of humidification will on, relay of humidification will work; When the measured humidity PV≥HS   (Humidity   Set   Value),  indicator  lamp  of humidification  will  off,  relay  of humidification stops working.

Alarm High/Low Limit Setting (AH, AL)

When the measured humidity PV≥AH (Alarm High Humidity Set Value) or the measured humidity PV≤AL (Alarm High Humidity Set Value), alarm with the “BI- BI- BIII” sound, current value, AH or AL will display on PV screen. The voice of alarm can be stopped by pressing any key but the status of alarm will be not change until the value of measured humidity return to the normal range.

Compressor Delay (PT)

Under dehumidification mode, after power on, if the measured humidity PV≥HS (Humidity Set Value) + DD (Dehumidification Differential Value), the equipment won’t start dehumidification immediately, but waiting for a delay time. When the time interval between two dehumidification operation (or the time from power on to  dehumidify) is  larger than preset  delay, the equipment will start  dehumidification immediately; when the time interval between two dehumidification (or the time from power on to dehumidify) is less than preset delay, the equipment won’t start dehumidification until preset delay is satisfied. Delay time will be calculated right after the moment dehumidification stops

Temperature Calibration (CA)

When there is deviation between measured humidity and actual humidity, use humidity calibration function to align the measured humidity and actual humidity. The corrected humidity is equal to humidity before calibration plus corrected value (corrected value could be positive value, 0 or negative value)

Error Description

Sensor  fault  alarm: when humidity sensor is in short circuit or open loop, the controller will initiate sensor fault mode, and cancel all the actions. The buzzer will alarm, LED displays ER. Buzzer alarm could be dismissed by pressing any key. After faults solved, the system will return to normal working mode.
