Release note for Star Cool controller software 0357 rev 03

The key changes that have been implemented in software version 0357_03 are listed below:

Alarm strategy changes

New alarms: 202, 206, 658, 666, 780, 803, 819, 828, 852.
Removed alarms: 250, 621, 864, 898, 900.
Updated alarms: 146, 429 (U/F ratio).
Failed temperature sensors are verified during power up and alarms are kept/deactivated. Please refer to the Service Portal or Star Cool App for alarm descriptions and troubleshooting.

2. Defrost changes

The ice counter model is optimized in Frozen mode.
Too long defrost was observed when running Cold Treatment, which caused the Cold
Treatment to fail (restart), an improvement has been made to run defrosts more often when CT is running (requires USDA sensors to be mounted).
The defrost key automatically chooses the most applicable defrost, the selectable needs to be done from the menu structure.
3.CA

Low oil level detection in the vacuum pump has been implemented during PTI.
When there are jumps in the O2 & CO2 sensor readings, the sensor will restart, freeze and recheck the value. If not stable, alarm 310 CO2 sensor and/or alarm 313 for O2 sensor will be activated.
It has been observed on some O2 sensors that the 5 minutes heating up time was not sufficient, therefore the counting down timer is replaced with the display text warming up during starting up.
It is now possible to enter/reset the run time counter in the controller, Service menu line S08, when the vacuum pump oil and filter have been changed.
The vacuum pump pressure values are now also available in PSI.

Data logging/Modem
Average Tsup and Tret logged correctly in battery mode at power off. Alarm 146 is visible in datalog as a log alarm (no alarm light active).
MCI modem (gateway) support menu added in the Service menu, line S09 Modem:

W02 Modem Sw ver
W03 Modem HW ver
W04 Last connected
W05 Geofence ver
W06 Network list

4. StarConomy

Container prefixes are configured with the StarConomy default set to on or off according to the customer specification after software update.

5. Display text

Star Cool logo in the start-up display has been updated.
It has been observed that on some user panels with earlier controller software, that Tset is unable to be set lower than -3°C. This is now corrected.
FC firmware update 1.10 has been added enabling the FC to do a self-test. The FC self-test can be selected and executed in the Service menu, line S01 Manual operation, M11 FC selftest:

J01 Start self-test
J02 Last run date
J03 Last run time
J04 Status
J05 Result
J06 Start deny reason
J07 Failure code

6. PTI/CA/ACT

The 0°C step is removed in PTI and the +13°C step is removed in the CA PTI. Defrost will only be carried out in the -18°C step if needed.
PTI execution time optimized if LPM200 (power meas) is mounted.
Vacuum pump oil level check during PTI, if ambient temperature is above +10°C. Updated the expansion valve test during ITI and Function test (FT).
Updated temperature sensor test step 2100. USDA sensor calibration limits now ±0.3°C.

7. Star View

Please note it is necessary to update the StarView program to the latest version, in order to be able to read all the events and alarms, otherwise it will show “unknown” with the event/alarm number in the log. Updating the program can be done by opening your StarView program and clicking on “Help”. Here your will find “Check for updates”. Click on this and the latest version 3.22.263.0 will be installed.
