The GUARDIAN RCC-12 Reciprocating Compressor Controller provides suction pressure
setpoint control and alarm monitoring for up to 8 even or uneven size compressors.
The controller communicates with the GUARDIAN Autograph Terminal and the Woodley
System 5 which provide remote central alarm monitoring, data recording and graphs.
Local temperature displays and modification of all defrost times, alarm and control settings is
available when the unit is connected to the optional GUARDIAN SKD-9 Keyswitch display.

Getting Started
Guardian Controllers provide refrigeration engineers with
•ULTIMATE FLEXIBILITY
•ASSURED MONITORING
•RELIABLE ALARMS
This manual provides refrigeration designers, installers, service mechanics and supermarket
personnel with the necessary information to achieve the above objectives.
All users require to know a few basic facts about this controller before successfully starting
to perform their design, commissioning, maintenance or operating functions.
a) All GUARDIAN controllers need to be set up with a unit model selection and other basic
settings for setpoints, timers and addresses. All these settings need to be done using the
SKD.9 Keyswitch Display, so the understanding of the button operation of this unit is
essential.
b) The shorthand used in the following chapters for concisely expressing button pressing
and selection sequences to do all this setup needs to be understood.
c) Mains power input voltage and hardware switch and link option selections (if any are
required) must correspond to the selected unit model configuration.
d) Since each controller can be configured in a number of different ways to perform flexible
refrigeration control then an understanding of how to find out what unit model is currently
selected, what it does and how it is connected, is also necessary.
SKD.9 KEYSWITCH DISPLAY OPERATION
GUARDIAN controllers require a SKD.9 Keyswitch Display unit to be plugged into the
telephone jack socket in the controller before any settings can be changed.
The SKD.9 is connected to the GUARDIAN controller via a 6-core telephone cable.
The SKD.9 Keyswitch/Display comprises a plastic enclosure housing a PCB with four
membrane pushbuttons, four LED displays and a 2-position Keyswitch.
SKD.9 buttons have the following functions when pressed:
@
@@
@’next’ button displays next value or menu selection in sequence.
/
//
/’raise’ button raises a menu settings value or menu item selection.
<
<<
<’lower’ button decreases a menu settings value or item selection.
?
??
?’accept’ or ‘enter’ button accepts any alarm and is used for entering a
menu selection or settings value data entry
The two position keyswitch may be used to toggle display case control status from OFF to
FANS only and back to AUTO
The Keyswitch is not used on the RCC-12.

GUARDIAN RCC-12 Issue vE-1.2A 03/08/00
BUTTON OPERATION SHORTHAND
To assist in easy setup of control setpoints, delays, timers and other configuration settings,
the sequence of button presses and subsequent displays will be shown in this handbook as
below:
ii) A button symbol means press that button
iii) A display box shows the result of the last button press on the SKD.9 display.
EXAMPLES
@ Auto @ OFF= ? -OFF is shorthand
for
Press ‘next’ button which then displays AUTO
Press ‘next’ button which then displays OFF
Then press ‘enter’ button which changes the control mode to OFF and displays -OFF
@:@ Auto ?
Press ‘next’ repeatedly until Auto is displayed then press ‘enter’.
Suct 4.8b
means the display alternates between the value identifier tag and the latest value.
DiSc =Oc= FAIL
means the display alternately flashes between the value identifier tag (discharge
temperature), the measured value ( open circuit ) and the alarm or trip message.
HARDWARE CONFIGURATION CHECKS
Prior to switching on the GUARDIAN controller check that the hardware unit is the correct
type for the incoming mains voltage
Models with BLUE labels and suffix ‘L’ (LOW VOLTAGE) operate at 24vac
Models with BLACK labels and no suffix ( NORMAL 230vac) operate at 230vac
230vac MAINS SUPPLY WILL DAMAGE A BLUE LABEL CONTROLLER !!!
A BLACK label controller will not work with a 24vac supply
When satisfied that the correct type of controller is available then the following checks
should be made prior to controller installation or replacement
a) Ensure mains supply is wired correctly to the appropriate TERMINAL WIRING drawing for
the model selected.
b) Ensure that any transducer selector switches specified on the TERMINAL WIRING
diagram are in the correct state.
c) Ensure any shorting link selector pins specified on the TERMINAL WIRING diagram are
correctly fitted.
d) Ensure that probes are wired to the terminal WIRING DIAGRAM and the correct type of
thermistor or pressure transducer probes are fitted.
e) The SKD.9 Keypad/display unit is fitted correctly in its 6 way telephone socket.
f) The RS485 highway connections (if required) are wired to the correct terminals and the
screen drain wire is continuous to earth.

CONFIGURE UNIT MODEL, SYSTEM No & ADDRESS
Enter Passcode PP05 for normal changes
Before any permanent change of controller settings are made then the correct entry of the
appropriate passcode is necessary.
Most normal system settings require entry of passcode PP05
@:@ SEt= ? PP00 @:@ PP05 ?
Press ‘next’ repeatedly until SEt is displayed then press ‘enter’. PP00 is displayed.
Press ‘raise’ repeatedly until PP05 is displayed and then press ‘enter’.
Select Unit Model
@:@ SEt= ? PP00 /:/ PP05 ?
Enter Passcode PP05 as button sequence above
@:@ Unit ? 8PAC /:/ 6PAC ? 6PAC
Press ‘next’ repeatedly until Unit is displayed and then press ‘enter’
Display shows unit model currently selected which may be wrong.
Press ‘raise’ repeatedly until correct model is displayed (e.g. 6PAC) and then press ‘enter’
which causes the display to wink briefly and display the new unit model selection
(e.g 6PAC)
Select System No and Address
e.g. setup unit for system 60 case 1 at address 180
Enter Passcode as button sequence as above
@:@ Unit
@:@ Sn01 /:/ Sn60 ? Sn60
@ Cn01 ? Cn01
@ A001 /:/ A180 A180
@:@ End= ? =-26
RS485 Communications
When the correct system number, case/compressor number and highway address have
been entered as above then the controller can communicate with the GUARDIAN AutoGraph
Terminal PC for central alarm monitoring and temperature display. Control setpoints, defrost
times and alarm limits may then be sent to the controller from the PC rather than using the
SKD9 Keyswitch display. For further details see page 22

UNIT MODELS
Guardian controllers may be configured in a number of different ways dependent on unit
model selection. Each unit model fulfils a different refrigeration temperature monitoring and
control requirement. In order to perform the required refrigeration control then each model
has different uses for the controller’s input output signals. This section gives details of all the
model variations available for the controller and the way to connect the wiring to the plant
devices and measuring transducers.
