ProfiLux 4 Programming Guide

1.2 Operating Concept

The operating concept of the ProfiLux computer strictly differs between two sets of settings:

 Settings of functions such as e.g. pH set point, illumination run of a luminaire or

behavior of pumps

 Settings of hardware such as the behavior of a switch socket (if this switching socket is

assigned to a lighting, a timer or a temperature sensor) or the behavior of a 1-10 V

interface (this interface should be assigned to a lighting or a pump)

This concept is extremely flexible because a function can be changed largely independently

of the hardware assigned to it and vice versa the hardware can be changed largely

independently of the function.

This concept allows you, e.g. to select a different socket for switching your tubular heater,

while the corresponding temperature settings can remain unchanged.

1.3 Examples of Settings

For a better understanding, take a look at some setting examples that are commonly used.

1.3.1 How to setup Temperature control

1. Setting the function: Set the desired set-point temperature, see also Sensor Settings->

Nominal value.

2. Setting the hardware: Set the switch socket outlet (socket) to switch the heating

element, the substrate heater and the cooling system (if present). See also System->

Socket outlet function.

1.3.2 How to set the Illumination?

1. Setting the function: Set the illumination run as needed, see also Sensor Settings->

Nominal value.

2. Setting the hardware: Set which switch socket outlet (for non-dimmable luminaires),

also see under System-> Socket outlet function, or which 1 - 10 V interface (for

dimmable luminaires), also see under System-> 1- 10 V interface, or whether the Mitras

Lightbar interface (when controlling a Mitras Lightbar) shall respond to this

illumination run.

TIP

When creating a command, it is useful to set the function first.
