Unit description
The wireless remote control allows the Multitalent heat pump manager to be regulated by weather conditions or room temperature.
It makes it possible for the owner to easily input and view system parameters (e.g. time, current hot water target temperature) and heating circuit parameters (e.g. heating times and desired room temperature) from their living space. This allows the heating system to be regularly monitored and optimised.
With the wireless remote control, it is also possible to make a correction to the weather-driven control system by means of a room­temperature-controlled cutout.
Operation
After inserting the batteries, the Installation menu appears once only. After adjusting the values contained on the menu, the controller is ready for operation. If the menu appears later, e.g. after a power cut, the function can simply be exited.
Installation is initiated by pressing “OK” (see the chapter “Installation”). Installation can be cancelled by pressing “Cancel”.

Bus code 1 (=> Heating circuit number) The heating circuits are numbered sequentially, starting with “01”. Heating circuit numbers must not be assigned more than once. However, please set the exact same heating circuit numbers in replacement controllers as were used in the controller which was replaced. During commissioning, each wireless remote control must first be taught in with the corresponding HF-CAN. After setting the bus code, the wireless remote control goes into registration mode. For registration to work, the HF-CAN must also be in registration mode (see HF-CAN installation instructions). The display of the wireless remote control displays the selected bus code and the field strength. If (“--”) is shown for the field strength, there is no HF-CAN within range and in registration mode. Sufficient reception quality is guaranteed in a range from 0 to (– 80) dBm. If the field strength indicator is < (- 80) dBm, e.g. (– 96) dBm, check the installation position of the HF-CAN and the position of the wireless remote control and modify as necessary. If it is not possible to obtain a better connection, you can test to determine whether the field strength is still sufficient for the exchange of data to occur. For more instructions, see the “HF-CAN installation instructions”

HA minimum limit (not in cascade operation) Reduces condensate formation in the HA when demand for heat is low. Shut-off of the HA takes place in all cases at the earliest when HA minimum temperature (HA1 min temp.) + Hysteresis (5K) is reached. 00 = minimum limit on heating curve The HA switches on once the temperature falls below that required by the consumers. 01 = minimum limit if demand exists for heating If demand exists for heating (pump enabled), the HA main­tains at least the set minimum temperature HA1 min temp. 02 = permanent minimum limit (24h) The HA maintains the set minimum temperature (HA1 min temp.) for at least 24h.

hysteresis is reduced linearly from the set hysteresis to the minimum hysteresis (= 5K) during the hysteresis period “Hyst. period”.
Low heat transfer
In this case, the hysteresis which is set higher is effective. This prevents short runtimes and frequent synchronising of the burner.
High heat transfer
In the case of extended burner operation (high heating load), the hysteresis is automatically reduced to 5K. This prevents the heating appliance from heating up to unnecessarily high temperatures.
Hysteresis for second burner stage Switches on the 1st burner stage if the temperature of the heating appliance falls below the target temperature. Switches off the 1st burner stage if the target temperature is exceeded by the HYSTERESIS. Switches on the 2nd burner stage
- after the 1st burner stage starts
- and the temperature falls below the target by 5K (= start the idle time / enable 2nd burner stage)
- and the idle elapses Switches off the 2nd burner stage if the target temperature is exceeded by the HYSTERESIS. Switches the 2nd burner stage back on if the temperature of the heating appliance falls below the target temperature. Switches off the 1st burner stage when the 2nd stage is enabled after the target temperature has been exceeded by [HYSTERESIS + BURNER 2 HYST.]

The heating circuit pump for the direct heating circuit is only switched off if the HA temperature exceeds the set maximum supply temperature by 8K. The heating circuit pump is switched back on again if the HA temperature falls below the temperature [maximum supply temperature + 5K]!
The calculated target supply temperature for the heating circuit is increased to the set minimum supply temperature (e.g. for air heating).
If the outdoor temperature falls below the programmed value, the system switches into frost protection mode (pumps switch on). “----” Frost protection function is deactivated!
The outdoor temperature delay selected must take the building design into account. Because a change in outdoor temperature subsequently impacts the room temperature, for a building of heavy construction (thick walls), a long delay must be selected. For a building of lightweight construction (in which the walls do not store heat), the delay should be set to (0 hrs).

Heating curve distance The required HA temperature for a mixer circuit is calculated by adding the calculated target temperature for the heating circuit supply to the heating curve distance. The heating curve distance equalises sensor tolerances and heat losses as far as the mixer.
Enable the circuit On => The heating circuit can be used with higher-level functions (e.g. cooling function of a heating appliance to protect against overheating; heat dissipation in service mode) as a heat sink/consumer. The heating circuit is heated to the set maximum supply temperature for the duration of the function.
Integrated controller part (e.g. 30 min) If there is a difference in room temperature of 1K for the set period, the supply temperature is increased by the value “Room sensor influence”. Usual value: “30 min”.

REMKO WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL
FOR MULTITALENT HEAT PUMP MANAGER
General mode of operation
Heating circuit regulation
Weather-based regulation
The set heating curve is used to determine the boiler or supply temperature appropriate to the measured outdoor temperature, such that with a properly configured heating system in the reference room, approximately the set room target temperature value is achieved. => The precise setting of the heating curve is extremely important for weather-based regulation. The circulation pump is regulated based on the weather. The circulation pump is switched on when there is demand for heating and in frost protection mode.
Room sensor influence
The current room temperature can be factored into the calculation of the required supply temperature by installing a room temperature sensor. The influence factor (parameter list) can be set between 0 (regulation purely based on the weather) and 20 (room temperature-based regulation with only a slight influence from the outdoor temperature). In the position “----” room temperature­based regulation is deactivated. The positions “----” and “0” show differences for demand-oriented circulation pump switching.
Water heating
The hot water programme of the control module affects Hot water target temperature I of the connected main controller. The hot water programme of the main controller is a separate programme.
Frost protection function
The frost protection mechanism prevents the heating system from freezing by automatically switching on heating mode.
Outdoor frost protection sensor
If the measured outdoor temperature drops below the set
frost protection temperature, the room target temperature for the corresponding heating circuit is set to 5°C. The heating circuit is enabled:
- Pumps are switched on
- Request for heat is sent to the boiler
“----” => Outdoor frost protection sensor is deactivated The function is cancelled if the outdoor temperature climbs above the set frost protection temperature by 1K.
Frost protection via the room sensor
If the room temperature drops below 5°C, the frost protection function is activated. The room target temperature for the corresponding heating circuit is set to 5°C. The heating circuit is enabled:
- Pumps are switched on
- Request for heat is sent to the boiler
EEPROM check
Every 10 minutes, an automatic check is performed to determine that the settings values of the controller are within the specified limits. If a value is found to be outside of the limits, then it is replaced by the associated default value. Error 81 appears in the Favourites line on the standard display to indicate that a value exceeded the permissible range. In this case, the user should check the key settings of the controller. The warning symbol goes out after the unit is restarted (RESET).
Circulation pump switching
Heating demand-dependent switching
Demand-dependent circulation pump switching shuts down the circulation pumps if there is no demand for heating. At the same time, the mixers are closed.
Condition for shutdown:
Room temperature-based regulation
The room temperature exceeds the set target value.
Weather-based regulation
The outdoor temperature exceeds the target room temperature value or the target supply temperature value by 20°C.
NOTE
If the room sensor influence is “0”, after a one-off demand for heating during the reduction period, the pump runs continuously.
Pump lag
When the circulation pumps are shut down, there is a lag period of 5 minutes, if the burner was switched on in the last 5 minutes before the pump shutdown.
Pump seizing protection
The controller effectively prevents the pumps from seizing due to extended shutdown periods. The integrated protection function switches on all pumps, which have not been run in the past 24 hours, daily at 12:00pm for 5 seconds.
Mixer seizing protection
If the mixer has not moved for 24 hours, is is fully opened once at approx. 3:00am. During this time, the heating circuit pump is switched off. The maximum supply temperature is monitored. The process is cancelled if maximum supply temperature – 5K.

System bus
Heating system bus system
This controller can be expanded modularly by connecting additional modules to the integrated bus. As supplied, the system can be used to control the following components of a heating system
1-8 Heating appliances ( modulating or switching)
1-15 Mixed weather-based heating circuits
0-15 Room controller (digital or analogue)
1 Solar energy system (2 collectors, 2 tanks)
1 Solid fuel boiler
The different components are simply connected to the system bus. The modules register with the system automatically and search for their communication partners using the set bus code (heating circuit number or boiler number).
Bus code
On mixer controllers and control panels
The bus code (00-15; parameter in the Specialist menu) is a means of numbering the system's heating circuits. Each control module and each mixer module contains the number of the associated heating circuit, in the form of a bus code.
- Heating circuit numbers (00-15) must not be assigned twice.
- Heating circuit numbers 00 and 01 must not both be used at the same time.
- The heating circuits are numbered sequentially, starting with “01”.
- Please only use heating circuit number 00 for replacement controllers, if “00” has been
used in the replaced controller.
Preassigned numbers
Heating circuit 1 01
NOTE
After setting all bus codes, the heating system must be fully powered down once.
