INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing the Salus iT500 Series of Internet enabled programmable heating/cooling controls. We hope that your purchase will give you many years of active and trouble-free service.

This equipment can replace an existing domestic central heating and hot water programmable controller and thermostat or can control a completely new installation.

It is estimated that using a programmable thermostat can save up to 20% of the energy used by a traditional installation.

The equipment can be used without the Gateway unit. In this case the battery powered central Thermostat unit will communicate only with the Thermostat Receiver and cannot be accessed remotely.

Features

• Access and control your heating and hot water system via the internet using a smartphone or computer

• Programmable using your smartphone or computer

• Secure and energy ecient

• Three system and display congurations

The iT500RX Receiver - replaces the switching part of your timer or heating

controller that is hardwired to your boiler, pump and 3-way valve. It allows for manual override in the event of failure of your iT500 Thermostat unit.

The iTG500 Gateway - connects to your router and enables you to control your central heating and hot water controls from outside of your home, via a smartphone or computer.

Includes: 12V Power Supply and Ethernet Cable

The iT300TX Temperature Sensor Transmitter - replaces the second

hardwired thermostat in a two zone heating system. It can be located in any part of the zone as it is portable and battery powered, can also be wall mounted.

INSTALLATION

Introduction

The iT500 Thermostat and the iT500RX Receiver are designed to replace the programmer and wired thermostat in a traditional domestic heating arrangement.

The equipment can be congured to control the following arrangements:

• Heating only, 1 zone

• Heating only, 2 zones

• Heating plus hot water

The system can be remotely controlled, via the internet, by connecting the system to your wireless router.

iT500 User Reference Manual

Two Heating Zone Arrangement

In this arrangement, the two outputs on the iT500 Thermostat Receiver are used to control two zone heating valves.

The temperature in Zone 2 is controlled by the addition of an iT300 Temperature Sensor Transmitter, placed in the zone.

Installing the iT500TR Thermostat

The iT500 Thermostat is portable and can be located anywhere, providing it is within range of the iT500RX Receiver.

If necessary, install the batteries in the iT500 Thermostat (see Battery Replacement).

Fit the wall mounting bracket and clip the Thermostat to the wall, as follows:

1. Attach the wall mounting bracket to a suitable wall using the ttings supplied and the built in level.

Note: For best results mount the iT500 Thermostat 1.5m from ground level.

2. After rst ensuring that the bracket is secure, clip the iT500 Thermostat into place by aligning the recess on the back of the unit to the bracket and clipping into place.

3. Once clipped into place, ensure the unit is securely seated on the bracket.

iT500 User Reference Manual

Alternatively, position the iT500 Thermostat on a at surface, using the stand provided.

Simply clip the clear stand supplied separately into the back of the unit.

iT500 User Reference Manual

Pairing the iT500 System Units for the First Time

Once the iT500 Thermostat and the iT500RX Receiver are physically installed, the two units need to be ‘paired’. Pairing allows the two devices to recognise each other and to communicate wirelessly.

When powering on the iT500TR Thermostat for the rst time, the Thermostat will go through the sequence of screens shown below and automatically try and pair by searching for the strongest signal from an iTG500 Gateway.

The units attempt to pair for 10 minutes and during this time, the approximately 20 seconds.

Installing the iTG500 Gateway

Connecting to your Router

Using an RJ45 cable, connect the Gateway to your router (connected to the internet), connect the supplied power cable to the Gateway and plug it into the 230V power supply. When all the connections are completed, turn on the power supply. This is the rst step in enabling you to control your central heating from outside of your home using your mobile phone or a remote computer.

The light on the router will ash red when it is rst connected and setting up. When connected to the SALUS Controls Server it will display a constant green light.

Note: Check that your router is allowing the gateway access to both incoming and outgoing connections. See your router’s operation manual for details on security and TCP/UDP port settings.

1. The gateway requires a xed IP address.

2. You require port 80 and 2165 UDP open.

3. Estimated use per month is 20mb.

iT500 User Reference Manual

Installing an iT300TX Temperature Sensor Transmitter (optional)

The iT300TX Temperature Sensor Transmitter is purchased separately. It is only used if your system supports two central heating zones. The unit is portable and should be located in the area of your home heated by the Zone 2 radiators.

1. Remove the battery cover on the back of the iT300TX.

2. Insert the 2x AAA batteries supplied into the iT300TX.

3. Replace the battery cover.

4. Attach the wall mounting bracket to a suitable wall using the ttings supplied.

5. Align the grooves on the back of the iT300TX and slide onto the bracket.

6. Once in place, ensure the unit is securely seated on the bracket.

USER PROGRAMMING

Using the PC or Smartphone App remotely, or the iT500 Thermostat unit locally, you can programme in your central heating and hot water settings as required.

Before doing this, you should identify your system conguration, as described next.

Identify your System Conguration

There are three possible system congurations:

• One Central Heating Zone

• Two Central Heating Zones

• One Central Heating Zone plus Hot Water

iT500 User Reference Manual

Note: The system conguration is specied by your installer and should only subsequently be changed

by the installer.

Once you have identied your system type, you can use your PC or smartphone to fully control your iT500. This can be done using your PC or Smartphone app, or locally on the iT500.

Program Times and Setpoint Temperatures

You can specify from which times heating may come on and what temperatures will trigger this (or use the deafult settings described next).

For the One Central Heating Zone and Two Central Heating Zone system congurations you have the following options:

• Number of programs per day: For each day or day group up to 6 programs can be dened. A program consists of a start time and a temperature setpoint. Start times must be set sequentially, i.e. start time for program 2 must be later than start time for program 1. Failure to set the start times sequentially will result in conicts and the conicting start times will have to be re-set.

• Temperature setpoint can be set for each program time period.

• Days the programs apply to: Days are numbered 1 to 7 where 1 is Monday and 7 is Sunday. Days can be programmed individually or in groups. Groups are as follows; 1-2-3-4-5 (weekdays) plus 6-7 (weekends), or 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 (whole week). In other words you can set up dierent programs for the weekend compared to weekdays, or have the same programs for the whole week, or have the dierent programs for every day of the week.

For One Central Heating Zone plus Hot Water you have the same program options as above for the central heating zone. For the hot water you have the following options:

• Number of programs per day:

For each day or group of days (weeks, weekdays and weekends) up to 3 program ON/OFF times can be set. These must be set sequentially, i.e. the OFF time for program 1 must be later than the ON time for program 1, the OFF time for program 3 must be later than the ON time for program 3. Failure to set programs sequentially will result in conicts which will have to be re-set.

• Days the programs apply to: Same as for above.
