User guide: MINI MELODY

Play a melody now (by its number)

1. Press the orange button with the lamp (LIGHT) to switch on the screen.
2. Find the melody’s number in the melody list, e.g. 011 = «ΧΑΡΜΟΣΥΝΟ» (festive peal).
3. Type the number on the white number buttons, always with three digits: e.g. 0, 1, 1.
4. Look at the screen: the top line shows the melody’s name and the bottom line shows how long it lasts.
5. If you want it to ring for longer or shorter, press + or −.
6. Press the green START button. The melody starts.
7. To stop it earlier, press the red STOP button.

Shortcut: instead of 0, 1, 1 you can press 1, 1 and then ESC. You can also move from melody to melody with the arrows ▲ ▼ (next to buttons 3 and 6). For melodies you use often, it is easier to press an orange button M1–M8 (see “One-press melody”).

One-press melody (buttons M1–M8)

1. Press the orange button with the lamp (LIGHT) to switch on the screen.
2. Check the «ΜΝΗΜΕΣ» (memories) card at the end of the instructions to see which melody each button M1–M8 holds.
3. Press the orange button you want once, briefly (e.g. M2). The melody starts.
4. To stop it, press the red STOP button.

⚠ Do not hold the M button down. If you hold it for about 2 seconds, the melody shown on the screen at that moment is saved on it and the old one is lost.

Which melody each button M1–M8 holds

1. Look at the «ΜΝΗΜΕΣ» (memories) card at the end of the instructions. For each button M1–M8 it gives the melody’s name and number.
2. Each church may have a different card, because the melodies on M1–M8 can be changed.
3. If you have lost the card, contact the company. You can also set the melodies you want again (see “Change the melody on a button M1–M8”) and write them on the blank card in the instructions.

The instructions have two ready-made cards. Card (1): M1 «ΕΣΠΕΡΙΝΟΣ» (Vespers) 01 · M2 «ΟΡΘΡΟΣ» (Orthros) 02 · M3 «ΔΟΞΟΛΟΓΙΑ» (Doxology) 04 · M4 «ΧΑΡΜΟΣΥΝΟ» (festive peal) 11 · M5 «ΚΡΟΥΣΕΙΣ» (strokes) 28 · M6 «ΛΕΙΤΟΥΡΓΙΑ» (Liturgy) 34 · M7 «ΠΕΝΘΙΜΟ Μ.ΠΑΡΑΣΚΕΥΗΣ» (Holy Friday funeral toll) 06 · M8 «ΠΕΝΘΙΜΟ ΚΗΔΕΙΑΣ» (toll for a funeral) 16. Card (2): M1 «ΕΣΠΕΡΙΝΟΣ ΜΟΝΟΣ» (Vespers, single) 26 · M2 «ΟΡΘΡΟΣ» 35 · M3 «ΕΣΠΕΡΙΝΟΣ ΔΙΠΛΟΣ» (Vespers, double) 31 · M4 «ΔΟΞΟΛΟΓΙΑ» 30 · M5 «ΑΓΙΟΡΕΙΤΙΚΟ» (Athonite) 33 · M6 «ΧΑΡΜΟΣΥΝΟ» 37 · M7 «ΠΑΝΗΓΥΡΙΚΟ» (patronal feast peal) 11 · M8 «ΠΕΝΘΙΜΟ» (funeral toll) 21. There is also a blank card for you to fill in. On some lines of card (1) the number does not match the melody list. If in doubt, contact the company.

Change the melody on a button M1–M8

1. Press the orange button with the lamp (LIGHT) to switch on the screen.
2. Type the number of the new melody with three digits (e.g. 0, 2, 1).
3. Check the screen: the top line must show the right name and the bottom line the duration.
4. Press and hold the orange M button you want (e.g. M8) for about 2 seconds.
5. When the button’s small light (LED) comes on, the melody has been saved. Let go of the button.
6. Press ESC to exit.
7. Write the change on the «ΜΝΗΜΕΣ» (memories) card so that you remember it.

There is also a second way, from the menu, which needs a code: LIGHT → button ↵ (MENU) and the code (a code is required — contact the company) → 2 «ΑΥΤΟΜΑΤΙΣΜΟΙ» (automations) → 2 «ΚΟΜΒΙΑ ΑΥΤΟΜΑΤΗΣ ΕΝΑΡΞΗΣ» (automatic start buttons). There you type the melody’s number with buttons 0–9 and it goes into the «ΜΝΗΜΗ Χ» (memory X) shown at the bottom of the screen. Use the arrows ▲ ▼ to change memory. At the end, press ESC three times.

Strike the bell by hand (the buttons with the bell)

1. Press the orange button with the lamp (LIGHT) to switch on the screen.
2. Below M1 and M2 there are two buttons with a picture of a bell, one for each bell.
3. Press the button of the bell you want. That bell strikes.

The instructions say that these buttons strike the matching bells and that they are useful when you compose your own melody. They also say that the buttons become active by themselves when you compose a melody. If the bell does not strike, contact the company.

Stop a melody

1. Press the red STOP button. The melody stops.
2. If the screen was off and the melody keeps going, press the orange button with the lamp (LIGHT) and then STOP again.
3. If you are inside a settings menu, first press ESC (up to three times) to get out, and then STOP.

The «ΜΝΗΜΕΣ» (memories) cards say «Με το STOP σταματούν όλα» (STOP stops everything). The Holy Friday funeral toll (006) rings continuously until you press STOP.

⚠ Inside the «ΕΒΔΟΜΑΔΙΑΙΟ ΠΡΟΓΡΑΜΜΑ» (weekly programme) and «ΜΗΝΙΑΙΟ ΠΡΟΓΡΑΜΜΑ» (monthly programme) screens, STOP switches off ALL the automatic programmes (Alarm). Do not press it there to stop a melody.

How long it rings: duration and speed

1. Press the orange button with the lamp (LIGHT) to switch on the screen.
2. Type the melody’s number with three digits.
3. The bottom line of the screen shows the duration (hours:minutes:seconds).
4. Press + to make it ring longer or − to make it shorter.
5. Press the green START button.
6. While the melody is playing, + and − change the speed. The number 01–50 at the end of the bottom line shows the speed.

The duration is set separately for each melody, up to 59:59. The instructions do not say whether the new duration or speed is kept for the next time.

Change the controller’s time

1. Press the orange button with the lamp (LIGHT) to switch on the screen.
2. If you also have an outside clock with hands, first wait until the CL figure on the 2nd line of the screen becomes 0 (CL = 0).
3. Press the white button with the arrow (SHIFT), above the green START, and enter the operator code (a code is required — contact the company).
4. Press button 1.
5. Type the correct time on the number buttons: first the hour with 2 digits and then the minutes with 2 digits (e.g. 0, 9, 3, 0 for 09:30).
6. Press ESC twice.
7. Check the new time on the 2nd line of the screen.

Summer and winter time change by themselves, so usually you do not need to change the time. For the date or the day of the week, see “Change the date or day of the week”. To change the time at which a scheduled ringing plays, see “Change the time of a scheduled ringing”.

Change the date or day of the week

1. Press the orange button with the lamp (LIGHT).
2. Press the black button with the arrow ↵ (MENU), bottom left, and enter the code (a code is required — contact the company).
3. Press 1 «ΡΥΘΜΙΣΕΙΣ ΡΟΛΟΓΙΟΥ» (clock settings).
4. Press 1 «ΡΥΘΜΙΣΗ ΩΡΑΣ» (time setting).
5. The flashing figure changes with + and −.
6. Use the arrows ▲ ▼ to move to the next figure, in this order: seconds → minutes → hour → day → month → year → name of the day.
7. When you have finished, press ESC three times.

The time, together with the seconds, can also be set from here. Leap years are calculated automatically.

⚠ This is the installer’s menu. Do not change any other settings there.

Correct the outside clock (the clock with hands on the bell tower)

1. Press the orange button with the lamp (LIGHT).
2. See what time the hands of the outside clock show right now.
3. Press the white button with the arrow (SHIFT) and enter the operator code (a code is required — contact the company).
4. Press button 2.
5. Type the time the outside clock shows: the hour with 2 digits and the minutes with 2 digits.
6. Press ESC twice.
7. The controller compares its own time with the one you entered and corrects the outside clock automatically.

The CL figure on the 2nd line of the screen shows the minutes the outside clock still has to move forward.

Summer / winter time

1. Usually you do not need to do anything: the MINI MELODY changes the time by itself (winter–summer).
2. For this to work correctly, the controller’s time and date must be correct.
3. After the clocks change, press LIGHT and check the time on the 2nd line of the screen.
4. If the time is wrong, correct it (see “Change the controller’s time”) or contact the company.

Automatic time correction from satellite (GPS)

This setting is done by our technician.

If a GPS receiver (GPS MODULE) is connected and the function is active, the controller corrects its time by itself every day at 04:10, based on the world reference time (UTC). Without a GPS receiver the function does not work.

⚠ The instructions warn not to change the «ΔΟΡΥΦΟΡΙΚΟ» (satellite) setting.

What the screen shows

1. 1st line: the name of the melody you have chosen.
2. 2nd line: the time (hours:minutes:seconds) and the CL figure, i.e. the minutes the outside clock still has to move forward, if there is one.
3. 3rd line: the date (day/month/year).
4. 4th line: the melody’s duration (hours:minutes:seconds), the day of the week and, at the end, a number 01–50 that shows the melody’s speed.

3. Without a code you can play a melody (number and START), press M1–M8 and stop with STOP.
4. If you have forgotten the code or want to change it, contact the company.

The controller locks the keypad by itself and switches off the screen. To light the screen up again, press LIGHT.

Power cut

1. The controller is not affected by power cuts: its clock has a battery that lasts up to 10 years.
2. When the power comes back, press the orange button with the lamp (LIGHT) and check the time (2nd line) and the date (3rd line).
3. If the time is wrong, correct it (see “Change the controller’s time”).

4. For specific dates, in «ΜΗΝΙΑΙΟ ΠΡΟΓΡΑΜΜΑ» (monthly programme), the setting must show «ΕΝΤΟΣ» (enabled).
5. If someone pressed STOP inside the programme screen, all the Alarms have been switched off. Set the ones you need back to Set: On.
6. If only the clock’s hour strikes are missing, check «ΩΡΑ ΚΟΙΝΗΣ ΗΣΥΧΙΑΣ» (quiet hours) and «ΗΜΕΡΑ ΚΟΙΝΗΣ ΗΣΥΧΙΑΣ» (quiet days): + = strikes, − = does not strike.
7. If everything is correct and it still does not ring, contact the company.

If the controller has swinging bells (swing), after the swinging the strikers stop for a while (idle time). This is done to protect them and is normal. The instructions have no list of error messages.

⚠ The checks in steps 2–6 need a code (a code is required — contact the company).

Volume / strength of the strike

This setting is done by our technician.

The instructions mention a current setting for the strikers (strike time 10–250 mSec), which belongs to the installer’s menu.

Swinging bells (swing/SWING) and idle time

This setting is done by our technician.

Bell No. 1 works only with a striker. The others can be set up for swinging. When the swinging ends, the strikers do not strike for as long as the idle time is set, to protect them.

Automations (e.g. switching the lights on automatically)

This setting is done by our technician.

The controller has two programmable inputs/outputs for automations, e.g. switching lights on automatically, with indicator lights. The instructions do not say how they are set up.

Remote control

1. The remote control is optional, with a range of up to 3000 m.
2. The MINI MELODY instructions do not describe how it is used. For instructions or a fault, contact the company.

Wi-Fi, mobile phone or computer

1. The MINI MELODY instructions do not mention Wi-Fi or a mobile app.
2. They only mention that melodies can also be composed on a computer, with suitable software.
