28 Operating the control software
Softstart Tab
– Softstart Mode: with this setting you can activate ("On") or deactivate
("Off") the softstart function.
Factory setting: Off
Options: On or Off
Note: activate the soft start function if you are using softened water or
water with a high conductivity.
Note: if the softstart function is activated the humidication capacity is
reduced to a preset value for a select able period if a demand is present
after restarting the steam humidier or after more than 4 hours in standby
operation (settings see parameters below).
The following settings appear only, if "Softstart Mode" is set to "On".
– Softstart Time: with this setting you determine how long the softstart
functions should remain activated in minutes.
Factory setting: 30 minutes
Setting range: 10 ... 120 minutes
– Softstart Power: with this setting you determine the capacity limitation
for the softstart function in % of the maximum capacity of the humidi-
er.
Factory setting: 75 %
Setting range: 4 ... 100 %
The following settings appear only, if "Idle Mode" is set to "Keep Warm".
Note: If the keep warm function for standby operation is activated the
temperature of the water in the steam cylinder is held on 60 °C (at 20 °C
ambient temperature), so that the humidier can produce steam as fast as
possible as soon as a demand is present again. If the ambient temperature
is higher or lower than 20 °C the heating power of the heating elements
can be increased or decreased via the keep warm offset parameter to
hold the keep warm temperature of 60 °C.
– Keep Warm Offset A: with this setting you can increase or decrease
the heating power of the heating elements of the keep warm function
for steam humidier A by the desired percentage.
Factory setting: 0 %
Setting range: –5%...+5%
– Keep Warm Offset B: with this setting you can increase or decrease
the heating power of the heating elements of the keep warm function
for steam humidier B by the desired percentage.
Note: this menu item appears only on double units or the large units
with two steam cylinders.
