1. When switched on the display will show an arrow symbol in the top right corner equivalent to the active navigation buttons on the control board.The arrows illustrate that it is possible to scroll up and down between the menus. Scrolling to the right makes it possible to enter a value. Set the value scrolling up (+) or down (-) to set the value higher or lower accordingly. Confirm by pressing ok.
2. A letter combination for easy reference in connection with service work will appear in the top right corner of the display.

Modes

Power On
The very first time the unit is switched on, we recommend setting date and time in the Setup menu, settings, display EP. If date and time is not set, date and time will count from the pre-set default date and time.

Set date and time using navigation buttons.

Confirm by pressing OK button.

Standby
The start up display will look as the one below.

Power Off

When the unit is off the display will only show a small dot in the top right corner.In Off mode it is possible to access all menus without the pump running by pressing the OK button on the panel. Dot is equivalent to the OK confirm button on the panel.

Error/Warning

In case of an error, “ ERROR” will appear on the display screen. Press the OFF button to switch of unit. If the error remains when the unit is switched ON again, please Press right arrow to see current error. In case of a warning, “WARNING” will appear on the display screen. When a warning is detected the machine will either stop or run with limited performance until the cause of the warning has been improved (eg. inlet pressure). To see further error/warning list and possible cause and remedy go to section 5.2.
