Instruction Sheet PA-00319 June 2013 EC3-X32 Superheat Controller EC3-X32 Superheat Controller with TCP/IP Communication Capability Description EC3-X32 is the superheat controller with TCP/IP connection used in conjunction with Emerson Electrical Control Valves EX4...EX8. Note: This document contains short form instructions for experienced users. Electrical installation •Refer to the electrical wiring diagram for electrical connections. • Do not apply voltage to the controller before completion of wiring. •Ground the metal housing with a 1/4 in spade connector. •Important: Keep controller and sensor wiring well separated from mains wiring. Minimum recommended distance 1.2 in. Warning: Use a class II category transformer for 24VAC power supply. Do not ground the 24VAC lines. We recommend to use individual transformers for EC3 controller and for 3rd party controllers to avoid possible interference or grounding problems in the power supply. Connecting any EC3 inputs to mains voltage will permanently damage the EC3. Digital input status is dependant to operation of compressor/thermostat Safety Instructions •Read installation instructions thoroughly. Failure to comply can result in device failure, system damage or personal injury. •The product is intended for use by persons having the appropriate knowledge and skills. •Disconnect all voltages from system before installation. •Do not operate system before all cable connections are completed. •Comply with local electrical regulations when wiring. Note: The EC3-X32 series contains a lead, acid gel rechargeable battery. The battery must NOT be disposed of with other commercial waste. Instead, it is the user’s responsibility to pass it to a designated collection point for the safe recycling of batteries (harmonized directive 98/101/EEC). For further information contact your local environmental recycling center.

Warning: Emerson Electrical Control Valves EX4...EX8 are delivered at half open position. Do not charge system before closure of valve. •Apply supply voltage 24V to EC3 while the digital input is 0V (open). The valve will be driven to close position. •After closure of valve, start to charge the system with refrigerant. Possibilities of connecting EC3-X32 to a network or PC A TCP/IP Controller Readme file is available on the www.eCopeland.com website to provide detailed information about TCP/IP Ethernet connectivity. Please refer to this file if you need information beyond the contents of this instruction sheet. 1) Connect the EC3-X32 using the optional ECC-Nxx cable assembly or a standard CAT5 network cable with RJ45 plugs assembly to a network or router that enables the controller to receive a dynamic TCP/IP address or 2) Connect the EC3-X32 to a computer using a crossover cable plugged directly into the Ethernet port. In this case, the TCP/ IP address of the computer must be manually modified to be compatible with the default address of the controller. Refer to the TCP/IP Controller-Readme file for more details. Wiring Setting and Visualizing Data: WebPages (recommended method) Important: Make sure that digital input is 0V (open). Turn the power supply ON. Four parameters i.e. refrigerant type (u0), pressure sensor type (uP), valve type (ut) and control mode can be set only when digital input is open (0V) while the power supply is ON (24V). This feature is for added safety to prevent accidental damage of compressors and other system components. All other parameters can be modified at any time. The EC3-X32 has a TCP/IP Ethernet communication interface enabling the controller to be directly connected to a network or a PC via the standard Ethernet port. The EC3-X32 controller has embedded WebPages to enable the user to visualize the parameter lists using real text labels. To view WebPages on the PC, a standard WebBrowser like Internet Explorer® or Mozilla Firefox and JRE Java Runtime Environment is needed. JRE can be downloaded at no charge from the www.java. com website. Open the Internet browser program on the computer and, if EC3-X32 is connected directly to PC with a crossover cable enter the default TCP/IP address of the controller (192.168.1.101) into the address line, or the dynamic address from the DHCP server from network/ Router. Refer to the TCP/IP Controller-Readme file if a specific port is required. It is possible to identify the dynamic TCP/IP address assigned by DHCP of the Router or network, refer to the TCP/IP Controller-Readme file. After a few moments, the default monitoring page should be displayed. If the browser does not open the default page or display active data, the user should check the Internet browser “Option” configuration. Refer to the TCP/IP Controller-Readme file. The Monitoring and Alarm WebPages are read only and therefore it is not necessary to enter a username or password. A username and password will be requested upon the initial request to any of the other WebPages. The factory default settings are: Username: “EmersonID” , Password: “12” The default settings may be modified on the Display configuration page. Press the tabs at the top of the Monitoring page with a left click of the mouse button to enter the respective Webpage. The parameters will be visualized in real text together with the program code as defined in the parameter list below. After the parameters have been modified, the complete list of settings can be saved to the memory of the computer and used later to upload into another controller. This can save a considerable amount of time when using multiple controllers and over a period of time, a library can be created containing the parameter lists for equipment for different applications. It is also possible to display live graphical data from the controller. Superheat, evaporating pressure, coil-out temperature and evaporating temperature are available on a 15 minutes rolling chart. Refer to the TCP/IP Controller-Readme file for a complete description of the features available for the TCP/IP series of controllers.

Warning: All alarms are disabled during manual control. We do not recommend unattended operation of system during manual control. The parameters can be accessed via the 4-button keypad. The configuration parameters are protected by a numerical password. The default password is “12”. To select the parameter configuration: •Press the PRG button for more than 5 seconds, a flashing “0” is displayed. •Press or until "12" is displayed (password). •Press SEL to confirm password. •Press or to show the code of the parameter that has to be changed. •Press SEL to display the selected parameter value. •Press or to increase or decrease the value. •Press SEL to temporarily confirm the new value and display its code. Repeat the procedure from the beginning "press or to show..." To exit and save the new settings: •Press PRG to confirm the new values and exit the parameters modification procedure. To exit without modifying any parameters: •Do not press any button for at least 60 seconds (TIME OUT). Special Functions •Press or together for more than 5 seconds, a flashing "0" is displayed. •Press or until the password is displayed (default = "12"). If password was changed, select the new password. •Press SEL to confirm password. A "0" is displayed and the Special Function mode is activated. •Press or to select the function. The number of special functions is dynamic and controller dependent. See list below. 0: Reset controller to factory settings (this action is possible only when digital input is 0V i.e. open). 1: Displays the current TCP/IP address. 2: Assign temporary 192.168.1.101 as TCP/IP address if EC3-X32 has different address. •Press SEL to activate the function without leaving the special function mode. •Press PRG to activate the function and leave the special function mode.

The EC3-X32 is fully functional without connected PC or keypad/display unit ECD-002. ECD-002 can be installed at any time also during operation. •ECD-002 can be mounted in panels with 2.8x1.1 in cutout •Push controller into panel cut-out. (1) •Make sure that mounting lugs are flush with outside of controller housing •Insert allen key into front panel holes and turn clockwise. Mounting lugs will turn and gradually move towards panel (2) •Turn allen key until mounting lug barely touches panel. Then move other mounting lug to the same position (3) •Tighten both sides very carefully until keypad is secured. Do not over tighten as mounting lugs will break easily.
