New Functions

  • Pt 100 external sensor with 3-wire circuit
    • The 3-wire circuit can be set using a parameter that compensates for the line resistances more precisely. The parameter can be found under [Setting] > [External Sensor] > [Pt 100 Wire Circuit].
  • Temperature difference monitoring External sensor (with additional ZE equipment)
    • A new limit value parameter can be set under [Monitoring] > [Temperature] > [External/Main line difference].
  • Quality test - value inputs
    • If incorrect values are accidentally entered outside the Tolerance, the quality test does not stop immediately. Instead, a warning message appears, which offers the operator the opportunity to correct it.
  • Exporting data - destination folder selection
    • When exporting data (analysis, parameter, operating data,...), the target folder can be selected or created anew.
  • Pressure-dependent refill volume calculation for leakage monitoring
    • Switching from a fixed quantity per second to a pressure-dependent quantity calculation. This prevents premature triggering by leakage monitoring.
  • Trend graphics extension
    • The temperature of the external sensor is now also shown in the trend graph.
  • Display of IP address and OPC UA port
    • The current IP address and OPC UA port are also displayed in the information system.

Improvements

  • Warning message in the event of a setpoint temperature deviation
    • So far, no warning message has been issued in the event of temperature deviations if the setpoint temperature has not been reached (e.g. In the event of an accident without reaching the tolerance band) and the [startup-alarmsuppression] parameter is set to “complete”. In such cases, a new warning message is issued.
  • Temperature control on return line sensor
    • Controller optimised for the temperature in the return line as a function of the speed control.
  • Energy efficiency indicator
    • Currency selection expanded by 32 more. It allows you to calculate annual savings in local currency.
  • CPU logging on restart
    • Ability to log when the CPU (processor) is restarted due to an error or an interruption in the power supply (relevant for service purposes).
  • Boot process (boot process)
    • Systemd units (operating system services) load more efficiently, which reduces system startup time by 15%.
  • Default values for cooling type B2 adjusted
    • New cooling capacity 65 kW @ 60 K instead of 60 kW @ 60 K and factor heating/cooling 7 instead of 10.
  • Default value for heating current monitoring adjusted
    • The lower Tolerance of heating current monitoring has been adjusted from 20% to 30% in order to output fewer warning messages when operation outside the line voltage specification.
  • Cooling capacity limitation when refilling
    • During a refill, the cooling capacity is limited to ensure the water supply and to keep the system pressure stable. This adjustment only applies to the E2 cooler type.
  • User logbook entries for timer activity
    • Entry in the user logbook when the unit is switched on and off automatically by the Timer.
  • Suppress flow rate error messages during safety cooling or aftercooling
    • Error messages E050 (flow rate zero) and E051 (flow rate not valid) are suppressed during safety cooling or aftercooling. The reason for this is that, for example, valves in the external heat transfer circuit are closed during a safety cut-out.
  • Measurement tolerances during quality test
    • Implementation of adjustable measurement tolerances for quality test.
  • Customized texts for reset confirmations
    • Provide resets with individual confirmation texts
  • Euromap 82.1 recognition (“IdentifyDevice” method)
    • If the “IdentifyDevice” method is called via OPC UA (e.g. On the injection moulding machine), the floor LED (spotlight) on the Thermo-6 blinks again for 30 seconds instead of 10 seconds.

bug fixes

  • Pump status monitor
    • An incorrect pump tolerance is used to calculate Pump status monitor. Compared to the Thermo-5 units, the maintenance message is issued later. After a software-update, it is therefore possible for the maintenance message to be issued immediately.
  • Change of the number plate of the Flow-5 flow meter
    • After changing the number plate of the Flow-5 flow meter (e.g. From A 1.. 4 to B 1.. 4), the identification in the menu level Actual Flow-5 values is not adopted.
  • Pump speed in “Eco-mode Speed”
    • In individual cases, the specified pump speed (Set speed) is not met for a short time during the start-up phase under certain conditions.
  • Calculation of limit values while at a standstill
    • During standstill (ready to operate), limit values are automatically recalculated and set in accordance with the set monitoring level.
  • Text length of the operating mode
    • The text name of the operating mode that is too long is not truncated/abbreviated when an error message (alarm logbook) is Display.
  • The text for the help description of error messages E301 and E302 is incorrect.

    • Thermo-6 temperature control units are now delivered as standard in “normal operation” and no longer in “Eco-mode Auto”.

Bug fixes

  • The remote control bit is not active with communication protocols 1, 4 and 5, even though the remote control has been activated. When the remote control is activated, all values can be read and written via the machine. However, the machine reports an error that the remote control is not activated. Depending on the manufacturer and machine type, this prevents the machine from starting.
  • Bluetooth pairing with the e-cockpit app on Android 14 does not work in some cases.
  • The Flow-5 temperature monitoring limits cannot be adjusted. Although the [Monitoring Type] parameter is set to “manual,” the limit parameter are greyed out. The limit values can only be changed after ON network has been switched OFF/ON.

New Functions

  • Flow pressure limit (detailed description → click here)
  • OPC UA data model extended with parameters for flow pressure limitation
  • OPC UA data model extended (for OPC UA clients that no use method) with the following boolean nodes:
    • Unit ON/OFF → below 'SwitchONOFF'
    • Mould evacuation ON ON/OFF → below 'MouldEvacuationONOFF'
    • Cooling ON/OFF → below 'ReduceToStandbyONOFF'
    • Acknowledge all error messages → under 'ResetErrors'
  • OPC UA data model extended (for OPC UA clients that no use events and complex data types) with a string node for active error messages. All active error messages (error code Exxx only) are also transferred as a string with the 'ErrorActive' node under 'DeviceZone.Operation'. Several error messages are listed separated by semicolons. Examples:
    • Alarm E010 and E012 active → 'E010;E012'
    • Alarm E022 active → 'E022'
    • No alarm active → '' (empty)

improvements

  • Legend texts in the trend graph (temperature, flow rate) are shown in abbreviated form if they are too long.
  • Improved pressure relief when mold emptying is carried out with compressed air (additional equipment ZG).
  • The minimum trigger threshold for Flow rate measurement can be adjusted again (for service purposes only).
  • New setting parameters [Response in case of incorrect measurements] implemented (for service purposes only).

bug fixes

  • With the function [Simulate Flow as a unit], Even Inactive Measurement Circuits Receive A Simulated temperature control device address.
  • At temperatures below 30 °C (calibration temperature), internal calculation errors can result in incorrect temperature values for the [Temperature CPU ZSM-61] parameter. These implausibly high temperatures occur only occasionally in device data recording (actual values) and have no negative effects on the function of the Thermo-6.
  • The monitoring time for edition the error message E041 (initial fill period exceeded) is shorter with the Thermo-6 than with Thermo-5 units.
  • After the DHCP lease time has expired, the Thermo-6 unit remains accessible for approx. 500-900 milliseconds under its previous IP address.

  • Actual value display of the process power per measuring circuit of the Flow Meter Flow-5
  • Flow-5 flow meter data is recorded in the internal data carrier and is included in the export of historical data
  • Although remote control is switched on via OPC-UA (Euromap 82.1), functions and parameters can be operated directly on the unit's user interface if the [Local control system] parameter is activated.
  • Aftercooling before switching switch off the unit
    Each time the unit is switched off (using the I/O, cooling, mould evacuation or remote control buttons), recooling is always carried out, provided that the device has been heating beforehand. The default duration of aftercooling is 60 seconds. Aftercooling reduces the stored energy in the Heating and thus also reduces the temperature rise in the flow before the unit switches off (detailed explanation → causes of malfunction). This cooling time can be set and the function can also be switched off.

improvements

  • Warnings from the frequency converter, such as undervoltage or overvoltage in the intermediate circuit, are output as limit value alerts (status field/spotlight: yellow) with a specific error code. Fault messages from the frequency converter remain marked as system alarms (status field/spotlight: red).
  • Detect whether the unit has a “UnitSecret” If no “UnitSecret” is detected, for example when a USR-61 control board is replaced, the E100 warning message (Digital Twin Secret not available) is issued.
  • Network connection between the Interface Server Gate-6 and the Thermo-6 temperature control unit is now always available, regardless of the network configuration setting (automatically or manual).
  • The network settings submenu is simplified. Adjustments to the network settings are made immediately after entry, without having to leave the “Network” submenu.
  • The entry when the unit is de-energized, for example when the main switch is OFF, is recorded in the historical data under the operating mode.
  • The switch to simulation operation for training courses and trade fair exhibitions has been simplified in order to teach and illustrate how the temperature control unit works.
  • Optimized data logging for protocols 2 and 9
  • The trigger criterion for edition the error message E050 (flow rate zero) has been optimized. The filtered flow value is taken into account when edition the error message; the system reacts less sensitively.
  • The regulation ratio (Heating Capacity in percent) is limited to 0% as soon as the flow rate falls below the minimum flow limit of 0.4 l/min.
  • The setting range of the [Cooling temperature] and [safety Cooling Temperature ] Parameter Has been adjusted (range from 0... Max. Allowable Device Temperature)
  • The duration of Mould evacuation with compressed air (ZG additional) is set to the default value of 240 seconds (previously 45 seconds). The value is automatically set to 240 seconds after a software-update has been carried out, if the value was previously set lower.
  • Various improvements in final series testing (not relevant for end customers)

bug fixes

  • The averages are not included when exporting operating data.
  • In individual cases, the error message E017 (solid-state relay ZSM fault) is incorrectly issued after the unit is started.
  • Error messages can be acknowledged via OPC UA (Euromap 82.1) when the remote control on the unit is switched off.
  • When remote control via the interface (protocol 1, 4 and 5), the user logbook is overfilled with irrelevant process logging entries.
  • The progress bar remains at 0% when a software-update is carried out via the e-cockpit app.
  • In the event of an alarm reset by the Arburg machine control system, an incorrect feedback is sent to the machine control via the interface (protocol 1). Numerous successive resets led to communication problems in individual cases.

  • Tapping on the symbols at the bottom of the main screen opens the help system with an explanation of the individual symbols.
  • By tapping on the date or time at the bottom of the main screen, the menu (date/time) opens directly.

improvements

  • Error message E050 (flow rate zero) due to too low speed in the “Eco-mode Auto”, “Eco-mode Speed”, “Eco-mode Flow” and “Eco-mode Temp” pump operating modes.
    The controlled speed is now limited at a flow rate of 0.6 l/min.
  • Unplugging the control cable from the Flow-5 switches off with an error message (red alarm) A
    new warning message (yellow alarm) is issued and the unit continues to run.
  • The [Limit Temperature] parameter is now reset to the factory setting when customer parameters are reset.
  • Error message E016 (frequency converter error: 12817)
    The braking and acceleration time of the pump has been optimized. The new default value for the pump's braking and acceleration time is 2.5 s (previously 1.0 s). This default value is automatically adjusted when there is a software-update.
  • After activating the [Mould evacuation] function, heating is suppressed.

bug fixes

  • The error message E095 (Update error GIF) was caused due to too number CSV files on the USB drive. During an import process, such as a software-update, the Content of the USB data carrier are checked for existing data. If the data on the data carrier is so numerous, the specified time for the data search was exceeded, which resulted in the edition of error message E095. To prevent this problem, the data search is canceled if there are more than 100 CSV files on the USB drive. This is announced in the corresponding import menu.
  • The calculation of the limit value for the temperature difference between return and Main line is incorrect if the difference values are negative. As a result, the calculated value was always lower than the minimum limit value and this was therefore used. With positive difference values, the calculation worked as intended.
  • The Gate-6 is output as “BlueZ 5.65" via Bluetooth. In individual cases, starting with version SW61-1_2401, “BlueZ_xxxxxxxxx” was unexpectedly entered for Gate-6 instead of the host name “Gate-6_xxxxxxxx”. This could lead to problems when using the e-cockpit app.

improvements

  • Protect function keys (I/O, cooling and mould evacuation) from accidental triggering
    The I/O, cooling and mould evacuation emptying     function button must be pressed for approx. ¼ s to carry out the function. This serves as protection to prevent unintentional release in the event of accidental contact.
  • Display the progress bar and time remaining while running a software update.
  • Reset of maintenance intervals simplified
    The maintenance interval can now be reset in the “Maintenance Interval Display” standard display. The editing symbol is only visible in the “Maintenance” user profile. By tapping on the edit symbol, the menu level (Service → Maintenance → Reset → Maintenance) is opened and the desired maintenance interval can be reset.
  • Improved stability of Flow rate measurement.
  • Until now, the speed during the filling/air relief phase has been determined as a function of the 'start function' setting. This dependency has been removed and new parameter have been implemented for this process. The speeds are therefore regulated in accordance with their default values, even when the 'pump start-up function' is deactivated.
  • When the time zone is adjusted, it is automatically synchronized with the Interface Server Gate-6 and all other Thermo-6 units in the same network network.

    • In simulation operation, some of the error messages were issued during or after a software-update.
  • Process monitoring misconduct
    • When the pump operating modes were switched over, the limit values were no correctly recalculated in some cases and incorrect limit value alarms occurred (e.g. Flow rate too low).
  • Export alarm logbook
    • When exporting an alarm logbook, the time of the alarms is entered with coordinated universal time (UTC = Universal Time Coordinated) instead of the current local time (LocalTime)
  • I/O button without function
    • If a navigation button (home display, profile,...) was tapped while resetting the data (e.g. By resetting reset custom parameter), the I/O button remains without function (shows no response).
  • Setting range of BoolFloat values
    • The adjustment ranges (e.g. Ramp heating) were not correctly displayed via Euromap 82.1 (e.g. 0.1.. 50.0 K/min instead of 0.0.. 50.0 K/min)
  • Transfer of actual temperature to the machine
    • When transmitting data with the OPC UA Ethernet interface (EUROMAP 82.1, Release 1.01) and the ZD interface (protocol 1, 4 and 5), the main line temperature is always transferred to the machine instead of the temperature that is controlled (Main line, Return line or external).
  • The edition of the error message E050 (flow rate zero) immediately after the pump is started.
    • The main line temperature can rise above 100 °C due to residual energy from the heating system. If the unit is switched on in this situation, an incorrect state (unit is already full) can be assumed, which immediately leads to error message E050. The filling/venting phase is only skipped (and thus directly activates flow monitoring) if the main line temperature and return line temperature are greater than 100 °C.
  • The e-cockpit 'Remote Access' and 'Remote Control' functions are not possible
    • A Virtual Network Computing (VNC) connection is no longer possible after 10 days of Laufzeit. The password for the VNC connection was no longer valid.
  • venting process
    • The system pressure could not be brought into the control dead band of the system pressure due to an existing backpressure in the cooling water outlet or system water outlet. At a temperature of <100 °C, this meant that no further venting was carried out after a certain number of vents and the system pressure remained at the same pressure level as the backpressure.
  • Display area help texts
    • The help text is not displayed in a visible area when called up via a parameter button (hold down). The last three entries in the help system are not displayed correctly.

Remarks

Withdrawal of the software-version

ATTENTION!

With the software-version SW61-1_2247, no Thermo-6 temperature control units with a Mains voltage of 210 V can be operated. A setting of the frequency converter is changed in such a way that communication with the frequency converter is no longer possible. This software-version can be used at 400 V Mains voltage, but should no longer be installed.

NOTE!

GIF-61 hardware-version 2 requires at least the SW61-1_2247 device software, in which case the GIF-61 unit board does not allow software downgrade <SW61-1_2247. If a software version does not support the corresponding hardware-version, a corresponding error message appears.

  • Functionality of automatically selection an alternative language (DisplayLanguage) if the desired language is not available (Euromap 82.1 Release 1.01).

improvements

  • The monitoring of phases L 1, L 2 and L 3 has been improved in connection with the detection of error message E014 (phase missing).
  • Text for parameter, help descriptions, etc. Have been improved.

bug fixes

  • Misconduct when connection an external sensor (type). Pt100 The temperature control unit controls external sensor, even though no one is connected.
  • Differently formatted entries (alarm code line) in the historical data.
  • The header (header) of the exported parameterdata is not translated.
  • The edition of the error message E035 (hose rupture) during Controller on an external sensor and implementation of a control optimization (). Auto-Tuning
  • The edition of the error message E035 (hose rupture) in normal operation with the checking facility connected (). HB-TP180
  • In hold mode, the trend graph cannot be moved on the time axis by swiping left and right.
  • In pump operating mode “Eco-mode Speed”, the pump speed is sometimes not adjusted to the set set value after the start-up function has ended.
