The control system consists of an NRCP-BASE board for single-circuit units and two NRCP-BASE boards (a master and a slave board) for dual-circuit units. Heat pump units equipped with optional additional heater stages use an additional board, type PD-AUX. All boards communicate via an internal SIO bus. The NRCP-BASE boards continuously manage the information received from the various pressure and temperature probes. The NRCP-BASE master board incorporates the program that controls the unit.

The user interface consists of two display blocks with up to 26 LEDs and 16 buttons (according to unit type). It is connected to the main basic board and gives access to a full array of control parameters.

3.2 - Electrical supply to boards

All boards, except the PD-RCPM board, are supplied from a common 24 V a.c. supply referred to earth.

CAUTION: Maintain the correct polarity when connecting the power supply to the boards, otherwise the boards may be damaged.

In the event of a power supply interrupt, the unit restarts automatically without the need for an external command. However, any faults active when the supply is interrupted are saved and may in certain cases prevent a circuit or unit from restarting.

3.3 - Light emitting diodes on boards

All boards continuously check and indicate the proper operation of their electronic circuits. A light emitting diode (LED) lights on each board when it is operating properly.

The red LED flashing for a 2 second period on the NRCP- BASE board indicates correct operation. A different rate indicates a board or a software failure.

On dual-circuit units or units equipped with optional board, the green LED flashes continuously on all boards to show that the board is communicating correctly over its internal bus. If the LED is not flashing, this indicates a SIO bus wiring problem.

The orange LED of the master board flashes during any communication via the CCN bus.

3.4 - The sensors

Pressure sensors

Two types of electronic sensors are used to measure the suction and discharge pressure in each circuit.

Thermistors

The evaporator water sensors are installed in the entering and leaving side. The outdoor temperature sensor is mounted below the control box. An optional water system temperature sensor can be used for master/slave assembly control (in the case of leaving water control).

In heat pump units a sensor placed on an air heat exchanger pipe ensures defrost operation.
