4. Configuració i instal·lació
Follow these steps to properly set up your DIGITEN Water Flow Control System:
- Install the Flow Sensor: Integrate the G2" flow sensor into your water line. Ensure the flow direction matches the arrow indicated on the sensor body. The sensor has G2" male threads for connection.
- Connect the Flow Sensor to the Controller: The flow sensor has a cable with a connector. Plug this connector into the corresponding port on the DFC15 controller.

- Connect the Temperature Sensor (Optional): If using, connect the NTC3950 temperature sensor to its designated port on the controller. This sensor is typically used to measure the liquid temperature.
- Connect the Solenoid Valve (Optional): If you intend to use the quantitative control feature, connect your 12VDC solenoid valve to the controller's solenoid output terminals. Ensure correct polarity. The controller can output up to 5A for the solenoid valve.
- Connecteu l'adaptador de corrent: Plug the 12VDC power adapter into the power input jack on the DFC15 controller. Then, plug the AC power adapter into a standard 100-240VAC wall outlet.

5. Instruccions de funcionament
The DFC15 controller features an intuitive LCD display and several control buttons:
- Botó MENÚ: Accesses various settings and configuration options.
- Botó SET: Confirms selections or enters editing mode for parameters.
- Botó ESBORRA: Resets values or clears current settings.
- Fletxes amunt/avall: Navigate through menus or adjust numerical values.
- RUN/STOP Button: Initiates or halts the flow control process.
5.1. Basic Display Information
The main screen typically displays:
- Línia superior: Total accumulated volume (e.g., 0003.98 L).
- Middle Line: Real-time flow rate (e.g., 0009.60 L/min).
- Línia de fons: Current liquid temperature (e.g., 027 °C).
- Indicadors: "RUN" and "STOP" LEDs indicate the current operational status.
5.2. Setting Quantitative Control
To set a specific volume for automatic shut-off:
- Premeu el botó MENÚ botó per entrar al menú de configuració.
- Navigate using the Up/Down arrows to find the "Quantitative Control" or "Set Volume" option.
- Premeu SET to enter the value editing mode.
- Use the Up/Down arrows to adjust the desired volume.

7. Solució De Problemes
If you encounter issues with your DIGITEN Water Flow Control System, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| Display is blank or not powering on. | Sense corrent, adaptador defectuós, connexió fluixa. | Check power adapter connection to controller and wall outlet. Ensure outlet has power. Test adapter if possible. |
| Flow rate or total volume reading is inaccurate. | Incorrect K value, debris in flow sensor, sensor installed incorrectly. | Calibrate the K value (refer to Section 5.3). Inspect flow sensor for obstructions and ensure it's installed with correct flow direction. |
| Quantitative control does not stop flow. | Solenoid valve not connected, faulty solenoid valve, incorrect wiring. | Verify solenoid valve connection and wiring (refer to Section 4 and Figure 6). Test solenoid valve independently if possible. Ensure quantitative value is set correctly. |
| La lectura de temperatura és incorrecta o no hi és. | Temperature sensor not connected, faulty sensor. | Check temperature sensor connection to the controller. Ensure the sensor is properly immersed in the liquid if measuring liquid temperature. |
