Multifunction buttons are bad user interface design. Only reason it is done: Smaller & Cheaper. I'd pay a few pennies more to have an extra one-button-per-function interface.

    Ive just got one of these and the special settings menu is confusing to say the least , Ive got other heaters a 5kw and 2kw but ive always tried to get the blue lcd screens that have the code 9009 to access te special settings menu and they give you lots of adjustment of Hz and fan speed settings althougth I didnt find it to healthy to mess about to much as the carbon monoxide enters the hot air stream through the glow plug hole from the glow plug breather as tiny as it is we were getting 33 parts per million in our living area, I ended up using some high temp silicone fire sealent to put around the glow plug rubber cap. fortunately the heater is outside in a custom wooden box bolted to our outside wall. I was going to convert the latest addition to the collection a 5kw heater to the blue screen with the lcd remote but now ive seen your video I might give the screen it came with a try it seems that theirn are some better controls in its special setting menu like being able to run it as a 2kw or 5kw unit. I have noticed that a 2kw needs to be run at around 2.5 Hz for the same heat output as a 5kw at 1.7 hz making the 5kw slightly cheaper to run running the same size 22ml pump. the 5kw minmum setting is 1.7 Hz no matter how low you set the special settings menu on the blue Lcd display.the 2kw will alow you to go as low as 0.9 Hz but this is so low it practically wouldnt heat much of anything.

      It would be possible if you changed the motherboard and controller at the same time but they are not available anywhere for sale yet so you would need to find one

    • @vanlifesurvivorsguide
      @vanlifesurvivorsguide  Год назад +2

      Hey, sorry I have only just seen this. You need to go into thermostatic mode so the celsius reading not the power 1-10 reading then set that number to what ever you want the temp to be.
      However the heater will not turn off when the ambient temp of the room reaches the set temp it will just turn down to its lowest power to maintain the heat.
      So if you have a well insulated space it will just keep getting hotter and hotter. For small well insulated space it is best to use power mode and find the sweet spot. This video explains that side of things if you are interested. When the video talks about hz mode it is talking about your p1-10 settings in case it confuses you.

      @vanlifesurvivorsguide  Год назад

      hi mate, so on that controller you need to press the power button and the down button at the same time for 2 secs to enter the pairing mode.
      You can pair up to 5 remotes on that controller so you have to choose a number to pair it to between 1 - 5.
      If you want to set it as number 1 you just need to press the "on" button on the remote and it will pair.
      They don't have clocks though that type but do have count down timers to set it to come on in a certain amount of hours and mins up to 99 hours and 99 mins. And then you can set one to go off in a certain amount of hours and mins too

    Hi! I have a question, maybe you can help. I installed my diesel heater, all good, but every time I start it up it goes trough a procedure, fan starts to run, fuel pump starts to run for a while, firing up and than the fuel pump goes faster and faster, so it does the fan, and only after it slows down to my H1 slow choice. Is that normal, shouldn,t it start with the choosen speed? I have the feeling it always does a selfpriming procedure, with every startup. Thanks!

      as I know it ,the fan not only controls the air outside the combustion chamber but inside it,, and a high setting would cool glow plug on startup.

    Super useful with the pinned comment thanks! Mine came with this and I worked out the 1234 code but had no idea what the rest meant. So I assume all the pulse rates are fixed for each pump size and heater version now?
    Anyone tested whether switching to the 28ml setting on 22ml pump or 2000w setting on a 5000w heater brings the tick rate down and gets a leaner burn? Might be a glitch way to get the missing alpine mode. Seems like they have wised up to people messing with settings and destroying heaters so locked people out of the fan speed and tick rate 😂
    Just to point out both the timers run concurrently, so if you want heater to come on in 1 hour for 2 hours you need to set 01:00 in the first menu then 03:00 in the second. So stupid that the thing has a clock but doesn't let you set by time making us count forward manually. At least it doesn't have the silly hours in decimal controller though!

    • @mattcooley6157
      @mattcooley6157 Год назад +2

      @@danielc6034 I don't think they giving access to the pulse rate and fan speed anymore. Probably to many returns because people destroyed heaters! Turning up a fan max rated at 5000rpm to 5000 always was a sure way to kill it quickly. Or 8hz tick rate in a smaller heater. My front room is way bigger than a average garage what these were designed for and hell I'd die if I ran it on p10 for a few hours. That's by dehydration not CO 😂
      I'd like to tone it down a little tbh but I don't think we are getting that in the settings anymore. It's the nature of the beast run large heater under capacity it soots up. Run small heater over capacity it dies. They wised up and made the default settings foolproof...
      But still, turning a 5kw into 2kw does it reduce the tick rate? If you tell it there's a 28ml pump does it tick less to compensate or does it send a bigger charge for a bigger pump and destroy a 22ml?
      Logic tells me they aren't that smart and you'd get the leanest burn by setting 28ml pump in a 2kw heater and it would pump less fuel. But then you could also say set it at 16mil it will pump less fuel because it expected the smaller pump. My head hurts now let's stay warm and CO free 😂

      L28 is 1.0Hz (Struggles to light)
      H28 1.3Hz

    My heater has been running fine for a few hours now, just like many other times, but now suddenly, the “oil pump fault” indicator is on.
    It is the same green indicator that shows up at 0:49 in your video when you begin the priming.
    The manual says about this indicator:
    * the “machine fault“ column refers to that indicator as “oil pump fault“
    * in the “knob panel display“ column it says “4 indicator lights flash” (but this indicator is not flashing on my display, it is just sitting there, solid)
    * in the “handling method“ column, it says “check whether the oil pump is disconnected“ (but my van has not moved a bit, and the heater has not been touched, so I don’t know why or how there could be “oil pump is disconnected”.)
    Hot air is coming out the vent, but I wonder if this “oil pump fault” problem might be making it run not hot enough, or using too much of the diesel, or some other problem.
    Can anybody tell me what problem this symbol indicates might be happening, and what I might do to fix it?
    Thanks!

    When I try to enter the passcode, after I hit “OK” for each of the 4 spaces (1, 2, 3, and 4), the digit/character does not persist on the screen until the completion of the passcode, like it does on your video.
    Instead, after I select “1” for the 1st blinking dash, and then hit OK, it moves on to the next blinking dash (the 2nd one), but where I just entered “1” in the first blinking just goes back to a solid dash.
    Then after I do the same thing with the “2” in the 2nd blinking dash, and then hit “OK”, then it goes to the 3rd blinking dash leaving the 1st two dashes as solid, non-blinking dashes.
    Then the same thing happens for the 3rd and 4th dashes, and then it does not get me to the “secret“ menu or anything else different.
    Also, when I try any of the holding down 2 button combinations that you mentioned in this video, nothing happens.
    My controller only responds when I do anything only 1 button at a time.
    Anybody have any solutions or guidance for me with these 2 problems?
