1INTRODUCTION
1.1 Product description
Vcolor 388 is a controller for steam tube deck ovens which have a centralised gas burner heating system. 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 vertically, either semi-recessed into the front or flush with the panel. It has 15 outputs with electro-mechanical relays
(which can be expanded to 19 by fitting up to optional modules in the dedicated slots on the main board) and can control from 3 to 5
decks: management of temperature and extraction of combustion and cooking fumes is centralised, whereas cycle duration, steam
injection and venting are controlled separately for each deck.
The controller can save up to 99 recipes, each of which can be selected for any deck. Every recipe can have up to 8 phases, each with
independent settings for duration, steam injection and venting. Recipes can be altered, overwritten and saved directly from the display
and two different oven pre-heating setpoints can be set for every day of the week, with two start/stop times scheduled for each setpoint.
Recipes can be compiled in an ODS file (complete with pictures in BMP or GIF format) and uploaded to the controller using a USB flash
drive, thanks to the innovative programmable platform which allows users to customise their recipes and add new languages.
The controller has an oven cleaning function which uses pyrolysis, a self-cleaning mechanism that does not require chemical detergents
as food residue is oxidised at high temperature.
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 control module is available in a split version with an open frame board. User interfaces are available in 5 or 7-inch versions for vertical
operation and have capacitive colour TFT touch-screen graphic displays.
2.2 Control module measurements and installation
Measurements are expressed in mm (inches). Installation is on a flat surface with spacers.
2.3 User interface measurements
The user interface is available in the model which is installed flush and the model which is semi-recessed into the front. The measurements
vary according to the model, as illustrated below in mm (in).

2.4 User interface installation
Depending on the model, installation can be:
-flush, from behind the panel with threaded studs (not provided) welded to hold it in place;
-semi-recessed, from the front of the panel with spring clips to hold it in place.
2.5 Installation precautions
- ensure that the working conditions for the device (operating temperature, humidity, etc.) are within the set limits. See section
1 “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
- ensure that the thermocouple is properly insulated from contact with metal parts or use already insulated thermocouples.
