When the compressor is connected to power supply, display shows the text “OFF”, the green led related to temperature unit
of measurement is ON, the yellow led about compressor status is off; in case of alarm the related alarm code is flashing
on the display.

From “OFF” status the compressor can be switched on pushing the button , immediately the air-end temperature
appears on display and the star – delta motor start up begins its procedure.
The yellow led about compressor status starts to flash, the motor is running. The yellow led stops to flash when the
compressor turns to load status.
When the maximum pressure is reached, set by the pressure switch, the compressor starts the idle running and the solenoid
valve is unexcited.

When the idle running time finish (120 sec.) the motor turns off, the display continues to show the air-end temperature and
the led continues to flash but faster than before for all the “restart time”, after this time (30 seconds) the led slow down
the flashing frequency and the compressor is ready to start again when the pressure in the system goes down below the
minimum pressure set by the pressure switch.
If the button is pushed when the motor is running in delta mode, the compressor turns off after 30 seconds of idle
running; during this time the display shows the air-end temperature and the led is flashing slowly.
When the motor is off, the display shows the text “OFF” and the led continues to flash but faster than before for all the
“restart time”, after this programmable time (30 seconds) it turns off.
In case the button is pushed during the “restart time”, when this time ends the compressor will start again as described
above.
If the button is pushed when the compressor is in stand-by status (the motor is off waiting for pressure switch signal),
the display shows immediately the text “OFF” and the “restart time” starts with related fast flashing of the led ; also in this
case if the button is pushed the compressor will start again after the “restart time”.

Note: in case the button is pushed after the button and when the motor is still in “star” connection, the motor stops
immediately and the display shows the text “OFF”, the led turns off immediately (no “restart time” is case). Pushing the
button (even after very short time) the motor starts immediately as described above.

The display shows the compressor temperature in °C or °F, it depends on the setting (see setting chapter), the alarm high
temperature is 105 °C (221 °F) and to reset the alarm the temperature has to be under 95 °C (203 °F). In case of high
temperature alarm, the compressor stops (regardless its status) and is not possibile to start it again, the display shows
 Easy - Air Control Panel

alternately the air-end temperature and the alarm code “AL1”, the yellow led is off. To reset the alarm and start the
compressor again the user must push the button .
If the air-end temperature is below – 5 °C (23 °F), the alarm code “AL2” appears alternately with the air-end temperature, the
yellow led is off and the green led related to the temperature unit is flashing.
The alarm can be reset pushing the button and is accepted only if the temperature is above -5 °C (23°F).

If the air-end temperature drops below – 40°C (- 40 °F) it means that the temperature sensor is short circuit; in this case the
compressor stops immediately regardless of its status and it’s not possible to start it again, the display shows alternately the
air-end temperature and the alarm code “AL0”, the led is off.
The alarm can be reset by pushing the button and it’s accepted only when the temperature rises above -5 °C (23°F).

If the control panel has an internal malfunction, the display shows the alarm code “AL5”, in this case the compressor stops
immediately regardless of its status and it’s not possible to start it again, the code alarm is flashing on the display, the led
and the temperature led are off.
The alarm can be reset by pushing the button and it’s accepted only when the problem is solved.

When the set maintenance hours are expired, the alarm code “AL6” appears on the display, this message DOESN’T modify
the normal way of working of the compresor. The alarm code flashes alternately with the text that normally appears on the
display case by case; the flashing appears when the compressor is “OFF” too.

Worked hours control

During the normal working of the compressor, regardless with its status except under alarm condition, or when the diplay
shows the text “OFF”, the worked hours (loading hours + idle running hours) can be displayed when the button is
pushed for 4 seconds.
The worked hours are divided in two displays: the first one shows the thousands of worked hours, the second one the
worked hours up to 999 (example: worked hours 24563, first display is 024, second display is 563); pushing the button
is possible to switch from first to second display.
If the button is pushed after the second display of the worked hours, the time (in hours) to maintenance will appear
(always displayed in 2 parts as explained above; example: hours to maintenance 1561, first display is 001, second display is
561)
From this condition, if the button is pushed again, the display shows the text “OFF” or the air-end temperature.
After 10 seconds without any commands the display turns back to the original message.

Amending and setting parameters

When the compressor is in “OFF” status and without alarms flashing on display, pushing the button and
simultaneously for 4 seconds it’s possible to go into the “setting parameters” area: on the display appears the text “000”; the
button is used to increase and the button is used to decrease the digits, the button is used to move from one
to the other digit on the display.
If the password is right, pushing the button it’s possible to enter in the related “Menu”; if the password is wrong the
display go back to “OFF” status.
Example: the password is “255” and the display shows “000”
-) push two times the button , the first digit will change to 2 so it will appear “200”,
-) push one time the button to move to the second digit
-) push five times the button or the button , the second digit will change to 5 so it will appear “250”,
-) push one time the button to move to the third digit
-) push five times the button or the button , the third digit will change to 5 so it will appear “255”,
-) push one time the button to enter in the “Menu” area; it will appear “006” that is the first settable parameter inside the
“255 Menu”

Once inside the selected “Menu”, it’s possible to change some parameters. Pushing the button , the displaied parameter
starts to flash; using the buttons , and as described above it’s possible to change it. Once the parameter is
changed to the new value, the button has to be pushed to confirm it and the parameter will stop flashing.
 Easy - Air Control Panel

Note:
-) pushing without release the buttons and will increase or decrease of the value in a faster way
-) if the parameter is changed to a value that is out of the range, the confirmation is not permitted by the control panel
To switch from one to another parameter inside the “Menu”, the user has to push the buttons or when the text is
not flashing.
To exit from any “Menu”, choose the text “OUT” and push the button . This procedure will save the setting.
During the setting procedure, if any buttons are not pushed for 60 seconds, the control panel will exit automatically from the
Menu; the settings are saved if they are NOT flashing (in this case the previous value is saved).
