Operating instructions

General information

The IA remote control has 5 channels, into which a number of
receivers can be programmed.

This device is characterised by simple operation, large control but­tons and a Select button for channel selection.

The IA remote control is suitable for the operation of radiant heat­ers that are equipped with an IA receiver.

Intended use

The IA rmeote control is a hand-held radio transmitter. This may be

used exclusively for the control of radiant heaters that are equipped

with an IA receiver.
Other use, or use beyond this is not considered to be use for

intended purpose.

Stiebel Eltron GmbH & Co. KG is not liable for:

• Other use than described above

• Changes to the device

• Improper use
Please see the technical data contained in these operating

instructions.

Mounting of the wall bracket

1. Fix the wall bracket so that the drill holes do not touch any
electrical lines!

2. Before mounting in the desired installation position, check that
transmitter and receiver are functioning properly.

3. Fix the bracket to the wall with the enclosed pins and screws.

The upper section of the wall bracket is moveable.

Explanation of functions

Transmission control light

A radio signal is displayed by the lighting up of the transmission
control light.

The transmission control lamp flashes when transmitting if the bat­tery power is reduced.

The transmitting power or the radio range will be reduced through
the reduction in the performance of the battery. If the transmission
control light no longer lights up when a button is pressed, the bat­tery has to be replaced.

Select button

You can select up to 5 channels with the Select button. The indi­vidual channels are indicated through illumination of the relevant
LED on the status display.

- 27 -

Explanation of functions: Radio system

Explanation of functions
Bidirectional radio system

A bidirectional radio system means the transmission of radio signals
to radio receivers and optional feedback from the radio receivers
to the transmitter. The radio signal can be sent directly to the target
receiver. If this is not possible, the radio signal is relayed via other
bidirectional nodes until it reaches the target receiver. The target

receiver executes the command and sends a conrmation back to the

transmitter. Bidirectional radio operation is only possible if all nodes
are bidirectional. Otherwise the system is only unidirectional.

Unidirectional radio system

A unidirectional radio system means the transmission of radio signals
to radio receivers. However, in contrast to the bidirectional radio

system, the radio receivers cannot send any conrmation back to the

transmitter. The transmission of radio signals from one radio receiver
to another is also not possible.

Status display

A radio signal is indicated by illumination of the status display - in
different colours, according to the radio principle.
The transmitting power or the radio range will be reduced through
the reduction in the performance of the battery. If the status display
no longer illuminates when the button is pressed, the batteries
must be replaced.

Note

Do not press the P button before the receivers are ready for
programming. During programming the channel selects a radio
system. If the receivers are not ready for programming, the
transmitter channel changes to unidirectional mode. In order
to return to the initial status, press the STOP and P buttons
simultaneously for 6 seconds, until the status display illuminates.
