Procedure:
Enter menu Ed07 (E. Settings - d. Network), press PRG and scroll with UP/DOWN until reaching menu
Ed03. The “Capacity” parameter identifies the maximum production request for the Master/Slave system,
and can therefore be set by the user. The “Maximum capacity” parameter (read-only), on the other hand,
indicates the sum of the sizes of each unit added to the system; this value is therefore the maximum
effectively available to the Master/Slave system. Consequently, “Capacity” will always be ≤ “Maximum
capacity”. In any case, the maximum production can be defined for each individual unit in the system by
limiting production from its maximum according to the size. In this case, “Maximum capacity” will be
updated keeping in consideration these reductions.
8.4.2 Rotation logic
The activation logic of the units in the Master/Slave system can be set, choosing between “Grouped” or
“Balanced” (screens Ed03 and Ed04). On screen Ed07 (E. Settings - d. Network), scroll with UP/DOWN
until reaching Ed03 or Ed04 (NB: Ed04 is only visible if rotation is enabled on Ed03).
Grouped:
l the units are activated in series, one after the other, according to the request.
If the steam request does not require operation of all of the units, rotation can also be divided between
the units with the lowest operating hours (auto-rotation function), so as to ensure uniform operation of
the units over time (same number of operating hours). To enable and configure the rotation times, the
“auto-rotation time” parameter must be set on screen Ed04.
Note: if the “auto-rotation time” parameter is = 0, the auto-rotation function is disabled.
Balanced:
l the units are activated in parallel at the same time, splitting the total production request between the
number of units.
8.4.3 Advanced preheating
Note: the function has meaning only in the case of “Grouped” rotation.
By activating the advanced preheating it is possible to automatically pre-activate the Slave units that are
currently in standby. When the request reaches 90% of production (of the units currently in production),
the preheating of the remaining units is activated. The function is enabled/disabled on screen Ed04.
8.4.4 Disconnecting a unit
To remove a unit from the Master/Slave system, thus reducing the number of units available in the
system, use the “Disconnect unit” function on screen Ed06. This can be done on any of the humidifiers in
the system.
Note: once the unit has been disconnected, this will no longer be visible in the Master/Slave system,
as its IP address will be removed from the list. If a unit is disconnected erroneously, the system can be
restored on screen Ed01 (entering its IP). This must be done from the display on a unit that is already
connected to the system.
8.4.5 Display the system
To display a summary of the Master/Slave system, go to screen Ed08. On screen Ed07 (E. Settings - d.
Network), press DOWN to access menu Ed08. This has a total of five pages that display all of the units (01,
02, ..., 20), the status of each unit and current production as a percentage. The following table lists the
Master/Slave network unit status indications:
