Danfoss Link™ is a programmable, wireless control
system for heating systems in residential buildings (up
to approximately 300 m2).
The central controlling unit is the Danfoss Link™ CC
equipped with a colour touch screen, from which the
entire installation can be controlled.
This installation guide contains all information about
the Danfoss Link™ CC and how to get started. It guides
through recommendations and considerations that
must be taken into account when handling a wireless
system - and it describes conguration of the system,
to ensure a smooth and reliable system set-up.
Individual instructions, supplied with the service and room devices, contain
information about connecting the respective device to the network. The instruction will also state if the device is considered a service or a room device.

Installation Guide Danfoss Link™ CC
3. Guidelines for installation
The signal strength is sucient for most applications, however, wireless signals
are weakened on the way from the Danfoss Link™ CC to the room devices and
each building has dierent obstacles.
Ensure the best performance by keeping the following in mind for planning and
installation:
• Max. 30 m between devices in free space.
• Receiving devices should be placed on opposite or next wall as the transmitter,
if possible.
• All metallic parts in the building construction can weaken wireless signals.
• Reinforced concrete walls and oors weaken the signal strength signicantly,
but almost all types of construction materials reduce the signal to some
degree.
• Corners, which is a result of the design of the building, can weaken the wireless
signals, due to either a longer distance or missing reecting opportunities.
Note!
To get a good overview of the devices in each rooms, and their placement, Danfoss
recommends that an installation plan is made before beginning the actual installation.

3.3. How and when to use repeater units
What is the purpose of a repeater unit?
A repeater unit strengthens the wireless signal, when a satisfying connection can
not be etablished between the Danfoss Link™ CC and other wireless Danfoss units.
When is a repeater unit needed ?
1. Complete the installation and perform a network test (see 4.9). If one or more
devices fail, include a repeater unit (CF-RU) in the network, between the
Danfoss Link™ CC and the device(s) that fail.
2. Alternatively, plan ahead. If “yes” is answered to one or more of the following
questions, Danfoss recommends to include a repeater unit at the beginning of
the installation (see 3.4):
• Is internal walls or deck construction between oors made of steel reinforced concrete?
• Is the distance between Danfoss Link™ CC and last device more than 20 m
and signal must pass more than two heavy walls (stone or non-reinforced
concrete)?
• Is the distance between Danfoss Link™ CC and last device more than 25 m
and signal must pass more than 2 light walls (gipsum/wood)?
• Is the distance more than 30m in free line of sight?
A repeater unit (CF-RU) can be ordered on Danfoss code no. 088U0230.
Note!
These are guidelines only, as many factors have inuence on wireless communication.

supply) or a NSU (net power supply).
Installing Danfoss Link™ CC with In-Wall PSU
• Hold the PSU over the wall box and mark up the 4 screw holes.
Make sure the top is level.
• Drill holes and put tting plugs in.
• Connect the PSU according to the connection diagram on the
back side.
• Mount the PSU with the 4 screws.
Installing Danfoss Link™ CC with NSU
• Hold the mounting plate on the wall and mark up the 4
screw holes. Make sure the top is level.
• Drill holes and put tting plugs in.
• Mount the mounting plate with the 4 screws. Do not

4.1. Adding devices to the system
When adding devices to the Danfoss Link™ system, the distance between the
Danfoss Link™ CC and the device must not exceed 1.5m. To accomplish this
Danfoss Link™ Battery Supply Unit (BSU) is oered as an installation tool.
1. Slide o the lid and add batteries.
2. Slide the lid back on and attach the Danfoss Link™ BSU
battery pack onto the back of the Danfoss Link™ CC. When
x 10
ready to do the commissioning, turn the switch located on
the Danfoss Link™ BSU to the ON position.
Danfoss Link™ CC will now start up. This takes approximately
30 seconds.

Note! Use pincode [0044] to change between the following regulation types:
Room sensor (regulates only by room temperature) - if only Danfoss Icon™ RT is
tted (hydronic oor heating) or Danfoss Icon™ RT + Danfoss Link™ FT (electrical
heating).
Floor sensor (regulates only by oor temperature ) - if only Danfoss Link™ FT/S
is tted.
Combined room/oor (ensures min. oor temperature and regulates room
temperature in parallel) - Danfoss Icon™ RT + Danfoss Link™ FT/S is tted.
In case of hydronic oor heating, be aware if a certain max. oor temperature is
given by the oor manufacturer. This can be assured by tting a thermostatically
controlled mixing shunt.
