INTRODUCTION

This operating manual provides a complete overview of the S1 IoT Heating Controller, including an installation guide and all relevant information required to use the controller. The Frio S1 shall only be used for the purposes described in this manual and must be installed by a trained service professional in compliance with all applicable local electrical codes, according to the instructions contained herein. For more information, including device terms and conditions and limited warranty information, please visit www.frio.co.

OVERVIEW 

• The S1 is a single-circuit IoT controller for snow melting, freeze protection, and temperature maintenance applications. The device can drive up to a 30A resistive load to control heating systems operating between 100 VAC and 277 VAC. The S1 comes in an outdoor-rated enclosure certified to IP67 standards and NEMA 4X.
• Wi-Fi and Ethernet capability allow the S1 to connect to the Frio cloud platform via the internet, enabling smart, cloud-based control. When connected to the cloud, the S1 will upload system status and receive operational commands. The Frio cloud platform integrates weather data, system feedback, and proprietary control algorithms to automatically maximize system effectiveness and efficiency. Multiple S1 devices can be joined together in the Frio cloud platform, allowing centralized control of multiple heating systems.
• The cloud connection enables advanced monitoring and notification of your heating system. Data on key performance characteristics are monitored over time, and anomalies or excursions are flagged and reported. The Frio cloud platform offers customizable SMS and email notifications so that the user can be alerted immediately if there are any issues with the system. Users can access their S1 device remotely via the Frio cloud platform to check status, activate the system, or run a diagnostic test, eliminating the need to physically check the heating system. If an internet connection is not available, the S1 can operate in an offline configuration.

S1 SYSTEM OVERVIEW

The following sections describe the features available on the Frio S1-A-0002 and S1-B-2002 when operating with Firmware Version 3. For Frio S1 devices operating with different firmware versions or with model numbers S1-A-0001 or S1-A-2001, please visit www.frio.co/resources to download the appropriate operating manual. The model number is shown on the label on the right side of the device and the device firmware version can be found under Device Info on the Main Menu.

HARDWARE VARIANTS
The Frio S1 device is available under two different models, the S1-A and the S1-B. The S1-A is available in two configurations, the S1-A-0002 with all features, and the S1-B-2002 which does not include RS485 local communications or RTD sensing capabilities. Both versions have Wi-Fi and Ethernet communication. To check which device you have, look at the model number located on the product label.

1. Wi-Fi and Ethernet Certification
   Both the Frio S1-A and S1-B models can connect to the Frio cloud platform via Wi-Fi 802.11 Dual Band 2.4GHz & 5GHz or wired ethernet connection using a Cat 5 or Cat 6 cable. The devices use an FCC certified Wi-Fi Module and have been tested to the requirements laid out in FCC Part 15 Subpart B.

CONTROL MODES
The S1 device operating on Firmware Version 3 has five available control modes; Freeze Protection, Temperature Maintenance, Manual Control, Cloud Control (Snow/gutter melting), Hybrid Freeze Protection, and Temperature Maintenance Scheduler. Future firmware versions may include additional control modes. If your device is operating on a firmware version other than Firmware Version 3, please visit www.frio.co/resources for the appropriate operating manual.

1. Freeze Protection
   • Freeze protection mode can be used to prevent water in pipe systems from freezing. In freeze protection mode, the S1 will activate the heating circuit when the active temperature sensor reads a value below the temperature set point. The S1 will then turn off the heat tracing circuit when the active temperature sensor reads a value above the temperature setpoint plus the dead-band. The dead-band is used to prevent the system from turning on and off rapidly if the temperature hovers near the setpoint. The user may set either the RTD or Thermistor as the active temperature sensor to be used for control. They may also select “Lowest” which will use the lower of the two temperature readings as the control input. Both the temperature setpoint and the dead-band of the system can be set by the user. The dead-band is added to the temperature setpoint such that the system will turn on when the temperature falls below the setpoint and will turn off again once the temperature rises above the setpoint plus the dead-band.
   • Freeze protection mode can be used in either an Ambient sensing configuration or a Pipe sensing configuration. In the Ambient configuration, the active temperature sensor must be placed in a location such that it will accurately detect the lowest ambient temperature the system will see. Do not place the temperature sensor in direct sunlight or near a source of artificial heat such as a vent. In the Pipe sensing configuration, the active temperature sensor should be placed on the pipe on the opposite side from the heat trace.
2. Temperature Maintenance
   Temperature maintenance mode can be used to control a heating system within a set temperature range. In temperature maintenance mode, the S1 will activate the heating circuit when the active temperature sensor reads a value below the temperature set point. The S1 will then turn off the heat tracing circuit when the active temperature sensor reads a value above the temperature setpoint plus the dead-band. The dead-band is used to prevent the system from turning on and off rapidly if the temperature hovers near the setpoint. The user may set either the RTD or Thermistor as the active temperature sensor to be used for control. They may also select “Lowest” which will use the lower of the two temperature readings as the control input. Both the temperature setpoint and the dead-band of the system can be set by the user. The dead-band is added to the temperature setpoint such that the system will turn on when the temperature falls below the setpoint and will turn off again once the temperature rises above the setpoint plus the dead-band. The active temperature sensor must be placed in a location where it can accurately read the temperature of the system.
3. Manual Control
   Manual control is available in two options, Always On, or Always Off. In always on mode, the device will remain on indefinitely. In always off mode, the device will not turn on unless the user activates the manual override feature. To manually activate the device using the Force On feature, select Force System On from the Main Menu, then choose the time that you would like the device to be on. The device may be forced on for 5 minutes, 1 hour, or 24 hours. To cancel the Force On command, select Cancel Force On from the Main Menu. The Force On feature may also be used with any of the other control modes selected. Users may also force the device on or off via the Frio Cloud platform as described below. Future firmware versions will allow for manual remote activation via a local network over RS485.
4. Cloud Control
   • Frio S1 devices that are connected to the internet can take advantage of the Frio cloud platform, including cloud-based control. The cloud platform allows users to view device status and operational logs remotely, including information on the connection, heater state, and active and past alarms. Users can perform a remote test/reset from the cloud platform to clear active alarms. Users can also view and adjust device settings from the cloud platform. For additional information on Frio Cloud features please visit www.frio.co.
   • Users can control devices from the cloud platform by setting an override which will hold the device ON or OFF for a user-specified period. Overrides can be set for a maximum of 21 days. If a device loses power during the override period, then subsequently regains power, the override will continue until the end of the set override period. An override that was set from the HMI will reset on power loss. An override set from the cloud will survive power loss once the device reconnects and will continue as an override until the end time set by the user is reached.
   • Freeze protection and snow-melting systems may be controlled automatically via the cloud platform using Frio’s proprietary control algorithms which use a combination of device information and weather data to optimize heater performance and efficiency. For more information on cloud-based snow-melting control please visit the Frio Cloud platform.

GROUND FAULT EQUIPMENT PROTECTION (GFEP)
The Frio S1 device includes integrated Ground Fault Equipment Protection (GFEP) and had been tested to the UL 1053 end product standard. Ground Fault Equipment Protection is designed to shut off power to the heater in the event of leakage current in excess of the GFEP threshold.

1. GFEP Overview
   The GFEP circuit measures the sum of the current on the two conductors feeding the heater and compares this value to a set trip level. If the value exceeds the set trip level, the controller will open the relay, shutting off the heating circuit. Since the current flowing out to the heater should equal current flowing back from the heater, measured ground fault current should be near 0 mA. If the value is greater than 0 mA, that is an indication that leakage current is flowing to some other part of the system. Some leakage current can be expected with heating systems, including self-regulating heat trace; however, systems with high leakage current are dangerous and should not be used. The default setting for the GFEP Trip Level is 30 mA.
2. Adjusting the GFEP Trip Level
   The GFEP Trip Level on the Frio S1 controller is adjustable from 30 mA to 300mA. Frio does not recommend setting the GFEP threshold above 30 mA. In limited circumstances and always under the guidance of a licensed electrician, the GFEP threshold may be set to a value above 30 mA. To do this, select Settings from the Main Menu, then select Advanced Settings from the Settings Menu. Select Ground Fault Protection from the Advanced Settings Menu, then select GFEP Trip Level. Enter the desired trip level, then confirm to set the GFEP Trip Level. NOTE: FRIO DOES NOT RECOMMEND SETTING THE GFEP THRESHOLD ABOVE 30 mA.
3. Fire Protection Mode
   Fire protection mode disables the GFEP circuit such that, in the event of a ground fault condition, the system WILL NOT turn off the heating circuit but will still send an alarm via the dry contact. Fire protection mode is intended to be used only in situations where the user would prefer to damage the heater instead of risking turning off the heating system due to a ground fault condition.
   NOTE: FRIO DOES NOT RECOMMEND USING FIRE PROTECTION MODE TO DISABLE THE GROUND FAULT EQUIPMENT PROTECTION CIRCUIT. To enable Fire Protection Mode, select Settings from the Main Menu, then select Advanced Settings from the Settings Menu. Select Ground Fault Protection from the Advanced Settings Menu, then select Fire Protection Mode. When Fire Protection Mode is turned on, the GFEP circuit is disabled.
4. Testing the GFEP circuit
   To test the GFEP circuit, follow the step-by-step instructions in section 4.7 of this manual. Periodic testing of the GFEP circuit is required in most settings. The results of the test are to be recorded on a test form such as the one provided with the S1 Installation Instructions in Section 4. The tester shall record on the form the date the test was performed and the results and shall ensure the form is retained by those in charge of the building’s electrical installation to be available to the authority having jurisdiction.

COMMUNICATION
Frio S1-A and S1-B devices are capable of communication with the Frio cloud platform when an internet connection is available. The S1-A device also supports Modbus communications via a three-wire RS 485 connection and BACnet communications via IP or MS/TP using a third-party gateway. Ethernet and Wi-Fi network connections may be disabled via the HMI. To disable the network connection, select Networking from the Main Menu, then select Turn Off Networking. You will be asked if you want to Disable networking? Select Yes to disable the network. To reenable the network connection, follow the same directions and select Yes when asked if you want to Enable networking.

1. Internet Connection
   All Frio S1 devices can connect securely to the internet via a Wi-Fi connection or a wired ethernet connection, as described in sections 3.4.1.1 and 3.4.1.2.
   1. Ethernet: The S1 can connect to the Frio cloud platform via an ethernet connection and supports 10Mbps and 100Mbps operation. For firewall requirements, please review section 3.4.1.3 below. Use the Frio Mobile App to configure a Frio S1 device connected to ethernet via the BlinkUp process.
2. Wi-Fi 
   • The Frio S1 is designed to use 802.11n Wi-Fi operating in the 2.4GHz band or the 5GHz band. It is also compatible with older 2.4GHz 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11a networks.
   • To connect a Frio S1 device to a Wi-Fi Network use the Frio Mobile App. The mobile app will allow you to configure the device via the BlinkUp process and connect to a Wi-Fi network. BlinkUp will be active for 5 minutes when the device is powered on and will be disabled 10 seconds after the device connects to the network. To manually activate BlinkUp select Networking from the Main Menu, then select Rerun BlinkUp. To clear the Wi-Fi credentials from the device, select Networking from the Main Menu, then select Clear Network Credentials. You will be asked if you want to Clear All Credentials? Select Yes to clear the Wi-Fi credentials and restart the BlinkUp process.
   • For security reasons, Frio S1 devices cannot be configured to operate as a Wi-Fi hotspot (access point). The Frio S1 is capable of determining what kind of security — WEP, WPA, or WPA2 — is being used by the network it is attempting to connect to. It supports all of these ‘consumer’ security mechanisms.
   • If you configure a Frio S1 device to connect to your password-protected Wi-Fi network but subsequently downgrade the security of the network by removing the password, the device will no longer connect to the network. To re-connect, the device must be reconfigured with a blank password. This is by design. It is intended to prevent your device (and other devices on the network) from being ‘captured’ by a rogue Wi-Fi access point masquerading as your network router. It can do this by transmitting the same SSID as your network but at a higher signal strength, but without the password, which the assailant does not know.
   • The Frio S1 does not currently support enterprise-level Wi-Fi authentication, 802.1x, which requires that you log in with a username and password as well as the customary SSID. An end-user will not be able to connect a Frio S1 device in such an environment at this time. There are ways to use the Frio S1 in enterprise environments, however. Many enterprises provide WPA2 Personal-based networks for guest access and to support other devices, such as network printers, which do not support WPA2 Enterprise. Please check with your IT department.
   • The Frio S1 does not support networks that present an HTML form in which the user enters login details before network access is granted. Some consumer routers use this approach, but it is most commonly encountered with public hotspots and some guest networks in corporate environments.
3. Static Network Configuration: The Frio S1 supports static network configurations and access through proxy servers on both Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections. To configure a static network configuration or proxy server, select the appropriate option while setting up your device using the Frio mobile app. The ‘Static IP’ section requires the entry of an IP address, netmask, gateway address and at the address of at least one DNS server, all in quad numeric form, e.g. 192.168.0.1. If the connection is not working, try including both the primary and secondary DNS servers. The ‘Proxy’ settings page requires a server address and a port number at minimum.
4. Firewall Requirements: The Frio S1 is a Wi-Fi and Ethernet compatible device that only makes outbound connections. Firewall configuration is required if the firewall stops outbound connections. This is rarely the case in consumer routers but commonplace  in corporate environments. The device communication makes use of the ports shown in the table below, which need to be open through a firewall.
   

   Port	TCP	UDP	Usage
   31314	✓		Initial device-server connection
   993	✓		Fallback device-server connection #1
   443	✓		Fallback device-server connection #2
   80	✓		Fetch device firmware
   53		✓	Allow DNS look-ups — Systems with non-default DNS settings

   The S1 will attempt to connect via TCP port 31314. If this fails, it will attempt to use TCP port 993, which is typically open by default for email traffic. Should both 31314 and 993 be closed, it will try 443. The S1 does not use UDP. Port 80 is used to request and transfer impOS™ updates. This port is typically open by default for HTTP/HTTPS communications.

5. BlinkUp Codes: The Frio S1 provides users with information on the internet connection via the BlinkUp LED. The table below includes status codes that can be shown via the BlinkUp LED.

Modbus and BACnet 
The Frio S1-A Heating Controller is capable of BACnet IP and BACnet MS/TP communication via an MSA Gateway. The device features a Modbus RTU Slave Interface to allow communication to the MSA Gateway. Up to 10 S1-A controllers can be serially connected to one MSA Gateway. A list of BACnet objects available for each Frio S1-A controller is included in the table below. Note, the S1-B is not capable of Modbus or BACnet communications. For the more information on Modbus and BACnet check out www.frio.co/resources or contact Frio at info@frio.co.

2. Dry Contact: The Frio S1 is equipped with a dry contact to provide users with a low voltage alarm output option. The dry contact is normally closed and opens when the Frio S1 has an alarm signal or loses power. The contacts are rated for 2 A maximum at 250 VAC and are compatible with 14-24 AWG wires. Users can set which alarms are enabled as described in the following section. All enabled alarms will activate the dry contact.

ALARMS: The Frio S1 has eight alarms described in the following sections. If an alarm is present the Alarm LED will light up and the normally closed dry contact will open. There are four user-settable alarms: High Current, Low Current, High Temperature, and Low Temperature. There are three system alarms which are automatically enabled and cannot be configured by the user: Sensor Failure, Power Loss, and Network Loss. Lastly there is the Ground Fault Equipment Protection alarm (GFEP Alarm). Online systems may be configured to notify users of alarm conditions through the Frio cloud platform. Users may also use the cloud platform to view information about each alarm. All alarms must be reset at the device via the HMI.
A summary of available alarms is available in the table below.

1. User-Settable Alarms
   
   • User-settable alarms are designed to provide the user with a method to monitor their system and to understand if the system is operating outside of normal bounds. These alarms may be enabled or disabled via the HMI and include High Current, Low Current, High Temperature, and Low Temperature. Enabled alarms will open the dry contact when set. With the exception of High Current, user-settable alarms are not enabled by default and must be enabled by the user. To configure user-settable alarms, select Settings from the Main Menu, then select Advanced Settings from the Settings Menu. Select Alarms from the Advanced Settings Menu, then select the alarm you would like to adjust.
   • For each user-settable alarm, you will be able to enable the alarm, set the threshold, and set the delay. The delay is provided to reduce nuisance alarms. When using the High Current alarm with self-regulating heat trace, it is highly recommended to use a delay of at least 300s to avoid alarming due to inrush current when the heat trace is activated. The High Current alarm is a critical alarm and will shut off the heater automatically if the alarm is enabled. It is also a latching alarm and must be reset via the HMI. Non-critical user-settable alarms (Low Current, High Temperature, and Low Temperature) may be set to Latching or Non-latching in the alarm settings. This setting will apply to all enabled non-critical alarms. Non-latching alarms are automatically reset when the alarm condition is resolved.
2. Sensor Failure Alarm
   • The Sensor Failure alarm is a critical alarm that is enabled if the device is in a control mode that relies on a local temperature sensor. If the sensor fails, the device will go into the failure state. To configure the failure state, select Settings from the Main
   • Menu, then select Failure State from the Settings Menu. The failure state may be set to ON or OFF. The default setting for the failure state is ON. If the sensor returns to normal operation, the system will revert from the failure state and resume using the sensor for control. However, the Sensor Failure alarm is latching, so the alarm will remain present until it is reset via the HMI. If the device is set to “Lowest” and one sensor fails, the device will use the other sensor and display a Sensor Failure Alarm. If both sensors fail, the device will enter the failure state.
3. Power Loss Alarm
   In the event of a power loss, or if the supply voltage drops below 50 VAC for more than 3 seconds, the device will enter power loss mode. In power loss mode, the normally closed dry contact will open and the HMI will display “POWER LOSS” until the onboard supercapacitor empties. A “last-gasp” communication is sent to the cloud platform on connected systems. This enables the device to tell the cloud that it has lost power. When the device is reconnected to power, the power loss alarm is automatically reset. More information on power loss mode can be found in section 5.6.
4. Network Loss Alarm
   If the device has been through BlinkUp and networking is enabled, the network loss alarm will be enabled, and a loss of network will trigger an alarm. There is a one-hour delay to prevent nuisance alarming if the network drops momentarily. If the device is in a cloud control mode and the network is lost, it will revert to a preselected local control mode.
5. GFEP Alarm
   When the ground fault current exceeds the GFEP Trip Level, the GFEP system will alarm, open the dry contact, and shut off the heating system. The GFEP alarm is a critical alarm that is latching and must be reset by the user via the HMI where it will show under Active Alarms as GFEP Trip. When the alarm is reset by a user, the device will automatically run a GFEP test and must pass in order to clear a GFEP alarm.
   When the device is in fire protection mode, the system will not turn off the heating system when the ground fault current exceeds the GFEP Trip Level, but the system will still activate the GFEP alarm and open the alarm dry contact. In this case, the GFEP alarm will be latching and must be cleared via the HMI where it will show under Active Alarms as GF High Current.
6. Active Alarms
   Active alarms can be viewed from the HMI by selecting Active Alarms from the Main Menu. The active alarm page will display all active alarms.

STARTUP

• All S1 devices perform a network connection attempt immediately when power is connected. This process may take up to 30 seconds, during which the screen will be blank, the status LED white and the heat LED red, although the heater will not be turned on. The BlinkUp LED will blink according to the connection status codes listed in sections 3.4.1 and 3.4.2. After the device checks for a connection, it will display the Frio logo on the main screen while loading device firmware from memory. Loading the firmware can take several seconds. When the firmware is loaded, the display will show the main screen and the device is ready to use.
• If the device has never been connected to a network or if the network credentials have been cleared, the BlinkUp LED will flash orange after power on. While the BlinkUp LED is flashing orange you may BlinkUp the device using the Frio mobile App. To initiate BlinkUp after the device has finished startup (i.e. after the BlinkUp LED has turned off), select Networking from the Main Menu, then select Rerun BlinkUp. You will be asked if you want to Provision the device now? Select Yes to rerun BlinkUP and provision the device.

POWER LOSS

• The device includes an onboard backup power source to provide up to one minute of additional runtime in the case of a power loss. Connected devices will use this time to send a last gasp message to the cloud platform with information related to the power loss.
• When the device is disconnected from power, the display will show “POWER LOSS”. When the screen goes blank the onboard power supply is exhausted and the device is completely turned off.
• NOTE: DO NOT OPEN THE WIRING COVER UNTIL THE SCREEN IS BLANK AND THE DEVICE IS COMPLETELY TURNED OFF.
• An override that was set from the HMI will be reset on power loss. An override set from the cloud will resume as soon as the device reconnects and will continue until the original end time set by the user.

REBOOTING THE DEVICE

• In the unlikely event that the device freezes up or has other issues, you can reboot the device in one of two ways.
• First, you can power cycle the device by turning the power to the device off from the circuit breaker. Wait until the power loss screen goes blank and all lights on the device are off. Turn power to the device back on to restart.
• Second, you can use a small diameter pin to press the reset button located in between the status and alarm LEDs. This will power cycle the processor and reboot the device.
• Please contact Frio to notify us of any issues that cause the device to freeze up.

CLEARING DEVICE SETTINGS
Users may reset the device to factory default settings and clear the network credentials from the device if needed. Restoring the factory default settings does not clear the network credentials. Clearing the network credentials does not reset any other device settings. To completely clear the device of all settings, the user should restore the factory default settings and then clear the network credentials.

1. Restore Factory Default Settings
   To restore the factory default settings, select Settings from the Main Menu, then select Advanced Settings from the Settings Menu. Select Restore Default Settings from the Advanced Settings Menu. You will be asked if you want to Reset and Reboot? Select Yes to reset the device to the factory default settings.
2. Clear Network Credentials
   To clear the Wi-Fi credentials from the device, select Settings from the Main Menu, then select Advanced Settings from the Settings Menu. Select Network Settings from the Advanced Settings Menu, then select Clear Network Credentials. You will be asked if you want to Clear All Credentials? Select Yes to clear the Wi-Fi credentials and restart the BlinkUp process. You will need to Blink Up the device again in order to connect to a network.

SCREENSAVER
The Frio S1 has a screensaver setting to limit “burn-in” and extend the lifetime of the OLED display. The screensaver will start after the delay period which can be set from the screensaver menu. To exit screensaver mode, the user either needs to wave a hand or light in front of the PHOTO sensor or press any button. There are three options for the screensaver: “Animation” which displays a moving Frio logo, “Text” which displays instructions on how to wake the device, and “Screen Off” which turns the screen completely off. For the longest screen life, Frio recommends the “Screen Off” setting.

OFFLINE DEVICES

• To use the device offline without connecting to the internet, simply perform all setup steps except for network provisioning. Do not use the Frio App to give the device network credentials.
• Frio recommends disabling networking on offline devices as this will disable the network connection alarm.
• Offline devices will not have access to the Frio Cloud platform and will not be able to use any cloud features. Offline devices will not have access to any firmware updates.

FIRMWARE UPGRADES
Firmware updates will occur automatically as long as the device is connected to the internet. Updates do not change device settings. A copy of the previous firmware version is retained on the device. If the update fails or the device is disconnected during the update, the previous firmware version will be reloaded until the device is able to retry the update at a later time. When an update occurs, the device will restart, shutting off the heating system if it is on. Once the update is complete, the device will resume normal operation. Updates typically take less than one minute to complete.
