1.2 Safety information
DANGER
When working on electrical components:
Risk of electrocution!
When work is carried out on electrical components:
❒ Only have work carried out by a qualified electrician
❒ Observe the applicable standards and regulations
➥ Work must not be carried out on electrical components by unauthorised
❒ Fit the holding frame as shown at the desired position in the room using the
anchors and screws provided
➥ The large grommet must be on the right!
➥ It is recommended to install the device above a flush-mounted socket so that
there is plenty of space to stow away the bus cable.
NOTICE
You should have the initial startup carried out by the authorised heating engineer
from Froling customer services.
For the bus connections between the individual modules, cable type
LIYCY paired 2x2x0.5 should be used. The connection to the 5-pin plugs should be
carried out according to the following diagram:
To ensure that the bus system continues to work properly,
the end jumpers (J) need to be set.
❒ If there is an RBG 3200 Touch at the end of a bus
system, the end jumper at this module must be set. All
the previous ones, with the exception of that at the
core module, have to be deleted.
2.1.3 Calibrate the display
Once the power supply has been switched on for the first time, the RBG 3200 Touch
starts by calibrating the display. To calibrate the touchscreen, you much press five
points indicated by a crosshair in the order shown.
NOTICE
Inaccurate calibration
If you do not tap the indicated points accurately, the control may stop working
properly and a software update may be required.
2.1.4 Setting the module address
Once the display has been calibrated, the module address must be set. If it is the first
RBG 3200 Touch in the bus system, set module address 1. Number any others in
sequence.
NOTICE! Do not select an address of 0 as it leads to malfunctions with the RBG 3200
Touch!
Once you have set the module address, you will need to restart the boiler controller
(switch main switch on boiler off and on). All of the system information will then be
loaded into the RBG 3200 Touch. This process can be time-consuming.
The following screen appears after the RBG 3200 Touch’s first system start:
The basic screen displays only the external temperature as no components have been
assigned to the RBG 3200 Touch yet.
The status LED shows the operating status of the system:
GREEN flashing (interval: 5 sec OFF, 1 sec ON): Off / Boiler off
▪
▪ GREEN constant: BOILER SWITCHED ON
▪ ORANGE flashing: WARNING
▪ RED flashing: FAULT

the timed program settings.
4.6.3 “Party” mode
The allocated heating circuit is set to heating mode until the end of the next heating
phase or until a different mode is activated.
4.6.4 “Setback” mode
The allocated heating circuit is set to setback mode until the start of the next heating
phase or until a different mode is activated. The temperature setpoint displayed in
setback mode on the basic screen is for display purposes only and cannot be
changed. To change this, go to the “Heating” menu → under the “Temperature” tab.
External temperature below which the heating circuit pump switches on in setback mode7°C
If the external temperature falls below this value in setback mode, the heating circuit pumps and mixing valve
are activated.
Frost protection temperature10°C
If the room temperature or the flow temperature is lower than the set value, the heating circuit pump will be
switched on and the heating circuit mixer keeps to the maximum heating circuit flow temperature that is set.
Current temperature of the DHW tank. The DHW tank is heated when the time window for the DHW tank load‐
ing is reached and the current temperature of the DHW tank has fallen below the value using the parameter
“Reload if DHW tank temperature is below”. A loading of the DHW tank takes place when either
the time window has elapsed or the temperature value which is set under “Set DHW temperature” is
reached.
DHW tank bottom temperature55°C
Prerequisite: Solar panel system is regulated by Froling!
Current temperature in the area of the reference sensor of the solar panel system.
DHW tank pump control0%
Specifies the speed of the DHW tank pump as a percentage of maximum speed.
When this DHW temperature is reached, DHW tank loading is stopped.
Reload if DHW tank temperature is below45°C
If the DHW tank temperature falls below the value set here, the time window is active and the loading source
(boiler or buffer tank) indicates the set loading increase, and the DHW tank loading is started.

Display of the current temperature at the solar collector in the buffer tank.
Actual power from solar heat meter [kW]0.00
Display of the current output which is generated by the solar collector. The calculation of the output is only
performed either when a per litre output of the collector pump has been set or an external volume pulse trans‐
mitter is used. In order to perform the calculation more precisely, the use of a collector return feed sensor is
recommended.
Boiler target temperature during solar charging75°C
Up to this temperature the DHW tank is heated by the solar system If the solar panel system is equipped with
an isolating valve for switching between DHW tank and buffer solar element, then this parameter is responsible
for switching between both of these solar elements.
Temp differential to start collector pump10°C
The collector pump activates when the collector temperature exceeds the reference temperature in the DHW
tank or buffer tank by this value.
Temp difference to stop collector pump5°C
The collector pump switches off when the difference between the collector temperature and reference temper‐
ature in the DHW tank or buffer tank is lower than this value.
Maximum buffer tank bottom temperature during solar charging85°C
If the sensor for the solar reference temperature in the buffer tank exceeds the specified value, the collector
pump is switched off.
NOTICE! This parameter is only relevant for systems used in conjunction with a buffer tank!
Display of the current temperature at the solar collector.
Actual power from solar heat meter [kW]0.00
Display of the current output which is generated by the solar collector. The calculation of the output is only
performed either when a per litre output of the collector pump has been set or an external volume pulse trans‐
mitter is used. In order to perform the calculation more precisely, the use of a collector return feed sensor is
recommended.

Temperature value which must be reached to release the heating circuit pumps in the top part of the buffer
tank.
NOTICE! This parameter applies for all available heating circuits!
Buffer tank fully loaded if temperature difference between boiler and bottom buffer tank10°C
5
From this difference between the boiler temperature setpoint that has been set and the current temperature in
the lower part of the buffer tank, buffer tank loading is stopped.
If there is a requirement from the heating circuit or DHW tank and the buffer tank or boiler has insufficient tem‐
perature, the secondary boiler starts after the specified delay time set here.
Secondary boiler minimum runtime10m
If the secondary boiler is started, it will run for at least the length of time set here.
Minimum temperature of secondary boiler55°C
When the secondary boiler reaches the specified temperature, the loading pump is started and switches the
isolating valve.
Temperature difference between secondary boiler and buffer tank10°C
Temperature difference between secondary boiler and upper temperature in layered tank to activate the load‐
ing pump of the secondary boiler.
Secondary boiler delivery temperature95°C
Prerequisite: Hydraulic system 3 in conjunction with a manually loaded secondary boiler.
If the secondary boiler exceeds the specified temperature, the isolating valve switches and skims the boiler.
