INTRODUCTION

An RF thermostat is a transmitter that
allows control of a heating system with
no physical connection between the
thermostat and the boiler. This digital
thermostat is used to switch the
heating system in your home on and off
as needed. It works by sensing the air
temperature and switching on the
heating when the air temperature falls
below the thermostat setting, and
switching it off once the set temperature has been reached. The RT305TX
from SALUS Controls is a stylish and accurate digital thermostat with a large,
easy to read Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).

This thermostat can replace most common residential thermostats and is
designed to be used with electric, gas or oil heating control systems. Unlike
ordinary single unit design thermostats, this is a new type of thermostat
separating the operational functions into two units.

The Receiver is used for wiring connections and heat on/off control. The
thermostat provides the user interface and temperature sensing /control.
The two units are linked together by a Radio Frequency (RF) signal.

mount the thermostat on an outside wall, above a radiator or in a location
where it may be subjected to direct sunlight. To ensure trouble free operation
of the Radio Frequency (RF) signal, always ensure that the programmable
thermostat is mounted away from any possible sources of interference (such
as radios, TV sets, computers, etc.), and is not mounted on or in close
proximity to large metal objects. Installing the RT305TX in enclosed areas
such as cellars and basements is not recommended.
