Operating Function Description

element
On-Button Turns the The function depends on the operating mode, system and net
compressor on pressure. (Option: The compressor starts only if the system
pressure is below a pre-set limit. See page 16, Parameter 9)

There are two operating modes selectable.

Automatic-operation:
If the net pressure is higher than the cut-in pressure the
compressor switches to stand-by mode.
If the net pressure is lower than the cut-in pressure the
compressor starts operating and switches to load operation.
Continuous-operation:
The compressor starts operating immediately. If the net
pressure is lower than the cut-in pressure the compressor
switches to load operation.

Off-Button Turns the The compressor switches to idle-operation and then stops.

After powering up the unit, a display test is performed and

the software version is shown.

A short time after powering up the unit, the main screen is

displayed. The net pressure and the air-end temperature are
also displayed.
If the compressor is in automatic operation mode the air-end
symbol is blinking.
In continuous operation mode the symbol is solid on.

pressure instead of the net pressure is displayed.
The system pressure is indicated by the number 2 on the
display.

If the compressor is operating in automatic-mode and the net

pressure is higher than the cut-in pressure, the compressor
switches to stand-by-mode.
Stand-by mode is indicated by symbol .

If the compressor is equipped with the option “System

Pressure” (see page 9, Parameter 9) a blinking stand-by
symbol indicates that the compressor will start but the system
pressure is still too high.
If the compressor is in idle-mode (after start-up, after
overriding the cut-off pressure or during after-run time) the
idle-mode symbol is displayed.

If the net pressure is lower than the cut-in pressure the

compressor switches to load operation mode, indicated by
the load operation mode symbol .
