Important information

For safety reasons the heating system must have a bypass
function. This is either built into the boiler or it must be installed
in the system.

Introduction

The Danfoss Link™ BR (Boiler Relay) is a device for turning gas
and oil boilers ON/OFF depending on heating demand.
The Danfoss Link™ BR is powered by 230 V~.

Installation

The Danfoss Link™ wireless system’s transmission range is suf­cient for most applications; however each building has dierent
obstacles aecting communication and maximum transmission
distance.

If communication problems occur Danfoss suggests that accesso­ries would be required to support the system, such as repeaters.
In exceptional cases the wireless system may not be suitable for
your installation.

Note!
Be aware that installation and placement must be
according to local building regulations.

Perform link test

If controller has sent an ASSOCIATION_SET
with a node ID to the Danfoss Link™ BR, then
it can perform a link test to this node ID by
using 10 no operation commands and count
the received acknowledgements, 2 missing
acknowledgments will result in a failed link
test.
The link test can be started from the Danfoss
Link™ BR by pressing the button for > 2
seconds.

Factory reset

Turn o the power to the device, then press and hold the install
button in front of the device for approx. 5 sec. while the power
is switched on again. The button must be held until LED gives a
red ash.
