Installation and connections Page 31/57 b) Polarization and termination of the RS485 bus The bus can be polarized from your device if necessary. To do this you must switch the two microswitches (Pol. RS+ (A) and Pol. RS-(B)) of the electronic card in ON position. If your device is the last on the line on the RS485 bus you can switch the Term. RS switch on ON to activate line termination.
General use Page 32/57 V. General use SYCLOPE COOLTOUCH® is intended for measurement, regulation and treatment of swimming pool water. The installation of SYCLOPE COOLTOUCH® equipment is based on the principle of measurement and regulation on the pool filter circuit. The evaporated water from the cooling tower is supplemented by new water. A stand-alone level switch keeps the water level constant. These operations increase the mineral salt content of the circulating water.
