1INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
Vcolor 679/689 is a controller for retarding-proofing or proofing cabinets and rooms which delivers high performance and precision
regulation, thanks to a modulating output which gives control of up to ten evaporator fan speeds. The evaporator fan can also be
modulated using an EVCO inverter. In the 689 models, the modulating output can also be set to control variable speed compressors.
By simply setting a parameter, the controller can be configured to manage retarding-proofing and proofing automatic cycles. Variables
such as temperature, humidity, fan intensity and duration can be managed independently for each phase. As well as three-phase
proofing cycles (re-awakening, proofing and baking delay), with blocking and holding added in the retarding-proofing cycles, there are
also manual cycles such as heating for proofing and cooling/pre-cooling/heating for retarding-proofing.
The controller’s innovative programmable platform gives manufacturers the freedom to personalise the graphic skin and programmes
and add new languages. All they have to do is compile an ODS file and upload it using a flash drive to the USB port on the user
interface. Users can store up to 100 programmes, match them to a set of preloaded images and move them to the favourites.
Users can interact remotely with their equipment and start up/stop working cycles using the EPoCA® cloud platform with Wi-Fi or
Ethernet connectivity (which also enables alternative or parallel control through MODBUS TCP). For more details, compare all the
connectivity options in the Technical Data table and consult the Management and Monitoring Products/Systems and the Connectivity
Products/Devices sections of our website.
The controller has an open frame board and a remote user interface which consists of a 5-inch (M) or 7-inch (L) capacitive TFT touch-
screen graphic display in glass which is installed horizontally either semi-recessed into the front or flush with the panel.

installation
The diagram below shows the measurements of the 4 relay expansion. Installation is on a flat surface with spacers.
2.6 Installation precautions
- Ensure that the working conditions for the device (operating temperature, humidity, etc.) are within the set limits. See
section 16 “TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS”.
- Do not install the device close to heat sources (heaters, hot air ducts, etc.), equipment with a strong magnetic field (large
diffusers, etc.), in places subject to direct sunlight, rain, damp, excessive dust, mechanical vibrations or shocks.
- Any metal parts close to the control module must be far enough away so as not to compromise the safety distance.
- In compliance with safety regulations, the device must be installed properly to ensure adequate protection from contact
with electrical parts. All protective parts must be fixed in such a way as to need the aid of a tool to remove them.
