1. Operation
1.1 Operation
Operating methods There are several ways of operating VEX308:
● Operation with CO2(CO2B) and motion sensors (PIRB)
● Operation with humidity (RHB) and motion sensors (PIRB)
● Operation without associated PIRB, CO2 or RH sensors
● Operation with web server
HMI control panel,
EXact
Connect the control panel to the unit in order to e.g.
● Reset the alarm
● Alter the week plan and operation
● Alter the comfort level (temperature and ventilation level)
● Alter the start and max. values for the sensors
For a more detailed explanation of the functions of the EXact control system,
please see the EXact Basic Instructions for VEX308.
Web server The web server allows control of the unit and monitoring of alarms. The VEX can
be connected to building management systems, BMS, via the web server. See the
accompanying web server instructions.
1.2 Operation with associated PIRB, CO2B or RHB sensors
Factory settings The following operating settings are installed when the VEX is supplied from the
factory with CO2B/RHB and PIRB:
● Weekly plan activated OFF
● PIRB timer - time interval = 30 min. (interval from activation of motion sensor
until the unit shuts down)
Comfort level:
● t=20°C
● ventilation airflow = 30% (minimum airflow when CO2 and humidity level are
satisfactory)
PIRB PIRB has an integral timer which can be set to time intervals of 10, 30, 60 and 120
min. The time interval can be changed as follows:
● Open VEX308
● Dismount PIRB
● Set the interval on the rear
0 = 10 min.
1 = 30 min. (factory setting)
2 = 60 min.
3 = 120 min.
1.2.1 Indoor climate levels
There are two indoor climate levels - comfort and economy.
Comfort Optimum energy-efficient comfort levels.
Economy Operation with greater energy savings. Only applicable when the room is empty of
persons, as it permits wider temperature limits.

1.5 Operation via timer operation, manual or external timer
Factory setting The following operating settings are installed at the factory when the VEX is sup-
plied without PIRB, CO2 and humidity sensors
● Manual operation (a switch to week plan is possible, see EXact basic instruc-
tions)
● Ventilation airflow 70%
External start/stop If external start/stop is desired, the VEX switch can be mounted in the room. Op-
eration will depend on whether Manual or Week Plan is selected:
If the following is
selected
and the switch is activated,.
manual operation the unit will start up and continue until the switch is activa-
ted again, after which the unit will stop.
week plan the unit will follow the operating settings in the week plan.
When the switch is activated, the unit will stop.
Function If the unit is shut down via an external start/stop, the unit will remain stopped,
whether or not CO2B or PIRB is mounted or an attempt is made to start up the
unit via a web server/BMS.
1.5.1 TIMERBUTTON2
● Install TIMERBUTTON2 and change to week plan + OFF via the control panel.
● Set the desired airflow e.g. 70% - at the comfort indoor climate level
● Set the desired room temperature, e.g. 22°C
● Set the dipswitch settings behind TIMERBUTTON2

When the alarm (in the PIR
sensor) shines red, the most
usual alarms will be filter
change or condensate level
alarm, see below in the ta-
ble.
- reason for alarm via
HMI control panel or
web server.
● Read off the alarm number and see the
alarm list in the EXact basic instructions to
remedy the fault.
● Reset alarm in menu 4 "Reset alarms"
Condensate level monitor - water level in conden-
sate tray.
For units without condensate pump:
If the alarm activates regularly, you should con-
sider mounting a condensate pump on the unit.
For units with condensate pump:
If the level is high and a condensate pump has
been installed, check if the condensate pump and
drain are working properly.
Operating hours counter on
filters - the set number of
operating hours has been
exceeded.
- if the filters look dirty. ● Replace dirty filters.
● Reset alarm in menu 4 "Reset alarms"
● Reset operating days in menu 3.1.4 or 8.1
"Filter" (select yes next to filter change in
menu)
See "Maintenance" for further information about
filter replacement.
Ice in heat exchanger - whether there is visible
ice on the heat exchang-
ers.
See section in EXact basic instructions for de-
icing principles. Consider changing the de-icing
method.
1.6.1 De-icing principle
The bypass valve allows a greater or lesser amount of outdoor air to circumvent the
heat exchanger and pass directly to the heating coil. A "snowflake" symbol ap-
pears in the HMI display or on the web server when the VEX is performing de-icing.
