1 Introduction
1.1 Foreword
This User Manual describes the Powerface Control System. It contains information concerning the
architectures of the control systems as well as the settings required to obtain the desired behaviour of the
Unit. The Powerface Control System will effectively manage all the different functions of HPS air conditioning
units.
In the following sections first the Hardware, and later the Software (Firmware) are explained in detail.
2 Hardware
2.1 Powerface
The Powerface is a microprocessor-based electronic card, which is able to manage the devices and the
sensors installed in the unit.
Powerface is installed in the electrical panel of indoor-units and can be installed together with a User-
interface module (“LCD Display”), which allows to read/set/reset values, parameters and alarms.
In outdoor- or ceiling mounted units the LCD Display can be mounted in a box with extension cable, which
allows placing it on a reachable position.
Access to the Powerface connections and Jumpers can be easily achieved.
Take care not to pull out the connecting cable when removing the LCD Display!
HIRONET
HIROBUS SLAVE
As the Powerface is the “Heart” of the System, which controls all functions of the Unit, some Jumpers have
to be set in order to set-up the control board according to the requested functions. Most of these Jumpers
are already correctly set in the factory, only the Jumpers for the unit’s address has to be set in the field,
during start-up of the Unit.

Relays are SINGLE switch.
Maximum powers that can be managed are the following (for every contact):
Therefore it is possible to manage directly Fan and heaters from the on-board relays.

Attention: There is a 3 minutes after-running time when changing from ON to STANDBY.
Therefore the Unit displays STANDBY with fans still on for a time of 3 minutes.

CRITICAL OPERATING AT
• HP HIGHER = defines the condenser pressure limit, if the value exceeds the limit the logging id forced
to 1 sample per second. The logging goes to normal as soon as the values comesbelow the limit minus
the hysteresis defined. In case of high pressure alarm the logging is forced to 1 sample per second for 5
minutes, then the logging is stopped. It will be reactivated as soon as the alarm is restored.
• LP LOWER = defines the evaporator pressur limit, if the value exceeds the limit the logging is forced to
1 sample per second. The logging goes to normal as soon as the the values comes over the limit plus
the hysteresis defined. In case of low pressure alarm the logging is forced to 1 sample per seconds for
5 minutes, then the logging is stopped. It will be reactivated as soon as the alarm is restored.
• OUTD. HIGHER = defines the outdoor air temperature (detected by Powerface) limit, if the values
exceeds the limit the logging is forced to 1 sample per second. The logging goes to normal as soon as
the value comes below the limit plus the hysteresis defined.
• ROOM HIGHER = defines the return air temperature (detected by Powerface) limit, if the value
exceeds the limit the logging is forced to 1 sample per second. The logging goes to normal as soon as
the value comes below plus the hysteresis defined.
