Wiring precautions
WARNING
- Always use a shielded cable for all low-voltage connections.
- Always use a shielded cable for all high voltage connections.
- For communication connections, always use a twisted-pair shielded cable.
- Do not connect the shielding of low-voltage connections to the earthing block (PE).
- Do not connect the shielding of communication links to the earthing block (PE).
- The maximum length of the communication link shall not exceed 1200 metres.
- Disconnect high-voltage connections from low-voltage connections and/or communication connections to prevent interference.
- If inductive loads such as magnetic switches etc. are connected to the equipment, Schippers advises to disconnect these loads by placing an RC filter (100ohm + 100nF) in parallel.

Introduction
Possibilities of the MS Fancontrol Touch
The MS Fancontrol Touch is specially designed for controlling fans in a cattle shed. The controller has the following features:
- Measurement of room temperature
- Graph with measurements of today and yesterday
- Control of 1 to a maximum of 10 ventilators (2 groups of maximum 5 ventilators per group).
- Ventilation stop below a set temperature
- Minimum and maximum temperature alarm
- Alarm on defective room sensor
- External alarm input
MS Stable fan energy-efficient (WA1400) i.c.w. with MS Fancontroller Touch 3.0
The MS Fancontroller Touch 3.0 is excellent for controlling the WA1400 Standard fans.
However, these fans are not equipped with a ventilation stop.
Before the fans are connected to the MS Fancontroller Touch 3.0, a cable must be removed in the control box.
- ATTENTION!!! This step must be carried out so as not to damage the fans.
- ATTENTION!!! When performing this step, the MS Fancontroller Touch 3.0 must be de-energised.
- Open the control box.
- Carefully disconnect the connector with the yellow and grey cable from the PCB.
- Remove the yellow cable from this connector
- Remove the connector with the yellow cable from the PCB (24V)
End result after cable removal
Fan stop WA1400 Standard
To prevent the WA1400 Standard from always running at minimum, it is recommended to set the minimum ventilation to 0%.
Screen overview
- A: The alarm bell icon is displayed here. If no alarm is active, this icon is gray
- If an alarm is active, the icon turns red. The alarm bell icon is orange
- when alarms have been silenced but not yet resolved.
- B: On the right side of the screen, you can swipe up and down through all the control icons.
- By pressing the icon, you can enter your desired settings (see Figure 2: Change settings). The set values are displayed to the right of the corresponding icon.
- D:
- The set point value in °C.
- The measured room temperature in °C.
- The current state of ventilation.
- The minimum to maximum ventilation set.
- E: If you press any of the control icons, the displayed settings bar will be visible. You can adjust the controls settings by pressing “+” to increase and “-” to lower. Press “OK” as soon as the desired setting is entered.
Remark: If you want to cancel a newly entered value, press the left half of the screen. The settings bar closes and the value is reset to the previous setting.
This chapter discusses all settings in the user menu.
Target temperature
Input range: 0.0°C – 50.0°C [factory value: 20°C] .Here you can set the desired temperature for the department.
Minimum ventilation 
- Input range: 0% – 100% [factory value: 10%]
- Here you can set the desired minimum ventilation. This is the ventilation rate when the room temperature is equal to or lower than the set temperature.
Maximum ventilation
- Input range: 5% – 100% [factory value: 100%]
- Here you can set the desired maximum ventilation. This is the ventilation rate when the room temperature has reached the end of the bandwidth.
Bandwidth
- Input range: 1.0°C – 20.0°C [factory value: 5.0°C]
- Here you can set the desired temperature range in which the ventilation is increased from minimum to maximum.
Ventilation stop
- Input range: -10.0°C – 10.0°C [factory value: -10.0°C]
- Temperature deviation with respect to the set temperature at which the ventilation stop is activated. The ventilation stop activates relay 2 with a potential-free changeover contact.
Switching the controller on or off
- Input range: On or off
- When the controller is turned on, the background colour is blue. All functionality is enabled in this situation.
- When the controller is switched off, the background colour changes to orange. When switched off, the ventilation stop is active and the analogue fan signal is 0V. The alarm function remains active.
Restore factory value
This function resets all settings to their default values. If clicked, a pop-up appears to confirm this action. If the controller was switched off (see above), this function will switch the controller back on again.
System time
- Input range: 00:00 – 23:59 hrs:mm
- Here you set the current time. This time is needed to display the 24 hour graph correctly.
System info
Opens a pop-up with the system information. The version is displayed as Vxx.yy.zz where xx.yy is the main release number and zz is the revision number.
Alarm overview
This chapter discusses the alarms that the MS Fancontrol Touch can display.
No alarms are active
If no alarms are active, the alarm bell icon is grey.
One or more alarms are active
If one or more alarms are active, the alarm bell icon flashes with a red background, switching between the alarm bell icon and the alarms that are active.
Also, the alarm relay will be activated.
Resolve or stop an alarm
- To deactivate an alarm, simply press the alarm icon that is visible on the home screen.
- The alarm relay will be activated,
- When the alarm is resolved, the alarm icon will automatically appear gray. If the alarm is not resolved, the alarm bell icon turns orange, indicating that the alarm has been silenced. If the MS Fancontrol Touch detects that the alarm is still active within 5 minutes, or if a new alarm situation occurs, the display switches back to the active alarm bell icon. The alarm relay will activated.
Remark: The various alarm icons can only be displayed if the corresponding control is active and an alarm occurs in relation to that control.
