  • Page 10: Ii.7. Temperature Alarm

    ST – 480 pause length should be adapted to the fuel type combusted in the boiler. Wrong selection of operation and/or pause times may result in boiler malfunctioning i.e. the fuel may be not fully combusted or the boiler may not reach the preset temperature.
  • Page 11: Ii.9.B) Boiler Tank Priority

    ST – 480 - see Section III.g). The pump will turn off below this temperature (minus a hysteresis of 2°C). Boiler tank priority II.9.b) In this mode, the boiler tank (hot water) pump will be switched on first to run until the set-point temperature is reached (see Section II.e), after which the pump will be turned off and the CH circulating pump will be enabled.
  • Page 12: Ii.9.D) Summer Mode

    ST – 480 II.9.d) Summer mode Once this function is activated the central heating pump will be off and the DHW pump will turn on above the preset activation temperature (see Section III.h) and will work continuously until the temperature drops below the activation temperature by the hot water hysteresis value or until the following conditions are met: (boiler temperature) + 2°C ≤...

    ST – 480 time a message reading "!-10º" will be shown in the main display next to the preset boiler temperature. II.16 Factory settings The controller is pre-configured for operation. However, it should be adapted to individual needs. Factory settings can be restored at any time.
  • Page 14: Iii.a.1 Switch On

    ST – 480 III.a.1 Switch on This feature allows you to temporarily make the valve inactive. III.a.2) Set-point valve temperature This setting is used to set the circuit temperature to be maintained by the mixing valve. This is the main temperature based on which the room thermostat reduction function is to be run (see Section III.a.10).
  • Page 15: Iii.a.5) Single Step

    ST – 480 III.a.5) Single step You can use this function to set a percentage value for a single step in the operation of valve opening, that is to say the maximum percentage value of opening or closing that the valve can move in a single step (maximum movement of the valve in one measurement cycle).
  • Page 16: Iii.a.9) Return Protection

    ST – 480 the controller based on the outside temperature. In our controller this curve is established based on four temperature set-points selected for their respective outside temperatures. Set-point temperatures must be provided for the following outside temperatures: -20ºC, -10ºC, 0ºC and 10ºC. The more points there are available for constructing the curve, the greater is its accuracy, which allows you to determine its shape in a flexible way.
  • Page 17: Iii.a.11) Operation Of Tech Thermostat

    (see Section III.a.11) III.a.11) Operation of TECH thermostat This setting is active only if the controller is connected with a TECH room thermostat (with RS communication) and allows a choice in how the thermostat is to work together with the mixing valve: temperature reduction –...

    ST – 480 III.a.12) Factory settings This parameter allows you to restore the mixing valve settings saved by the manufacturer. By restoring the factory settings you will not change the valve type setting (central heating or floor type). III.b) Valve 1 NOTE: Control with an additional valve (1 or 2) is only possible after you purchase and connect the controller to an additional control module (ST-61), which is not provided as standard equipment with the controller.
