All of the settings for S are described on
pages 16-21.

Outdoor control

For control in multi-occupancy buildings.
The outdoor sensor control the heating according
to the set control curve.

All of the settings for O are described on
pages 38-44.

5 different control options

Start Guide

3 Start Guide

NB! When using wireless room sensors, several steps are factory-set.

3.1 Fitting the motor to a mixing valve

Fit the motor to the mixing valve according to the instructions on the respective
installation kit (example shown in photos 1 and 2). Which installation kit is to be used
depends on the mixing valve, see the table and instructions in the installation kit.

Fit the plate (blue/red) for the mixing valve’s position indicator on the motor and fi x the
handle according to photo 3. NB! The motor is always delivered in the centre posi­tion and the handle only fi ts in the position that the motor is in. Insert and tighten the
screw in the centre of the motor.

Turn the motor to manual position (photo 3). NB: The handle must only be turned. If
the handle is depressed it may stick in the manual position.

Check that the mixing valve’s working area agrees with the position of the handle.

3.2 Installation of the CC

Install the CC with the motor frame bracket as shown in photo 4. NB! The bracket
can be located on either side of the motor and is pressed into place from behind. The
click lock is pressed into the slot until it says “Click” (photo 5). You can use e.g. a small
screwdriver to remove the click lock.

The click lock is loose inside the CC on delivery when the CP is not fi tted to the CC. If
not, it is in the cardboard box.

The CC can also be fi tted separately, e.g. on a wall. The box size is adapted for exte­rior fi tting on a 70 mm electrical box (e.g. wall socket).

3.3 Installing the supply sensor

Attach the sensor with the enclosed installation kit on the supply pipe (photo 6) as
close to the mixing valve as possible. Ensure that there is good contact. Insulate.

3.4 Cabling

Installing the 4 conductor cable:
Lay the whole cable between the CC and the CP before connecting to the respective units.

3.5 Connection of the CC

Insert the cable through the cable entry. We recommend that you knot the cable as a cable grip (photo 7).

The terminal block can be removed (photo 8) and is pushed into place on the stud after the cables are connected. Connect the
4-way multi-cable to the CC’s terminals 1-4. NB! The colour combination on the CC terminal block must be repeated when
connecting to the CP.

Photo 9 shows the CC’s various terminal blocks and their function with numbers and symbols.

3.6 Connecting the CP

The CP is delivered with the wall fi tting/adapter loose. The CP can later be removed
simply with a screwdriver according to photo 11.

Connect the 4-way multi-cable to the CC’s terminals 1-4, as shown in photo 12.
NB! The same colour combination on the plinths as in the CC.
Do not forget to pull the cable through the wall fi tting.

The CP is then pushed in place on the bottom plate with the click lock.
Insert the lower edge fi rst, then press in the upper part.

Using the CP

One press on any of the buttons starts the display. The second press on any button
opens the fi rst available menu.
The buttons’ function is then displayed above the respective buttons. Button 1 =
Move down/right or reduce value
Button 2 = Move up/left or increase value
Button 3 = Return/escape
Button 4 = OK/activate menu

None of the values can be changed “by mistake”. In all of the modes
where it is possible to change a value, you will be prompted whether you are sure you
want to make the change before the value is actually changed.

Basic settings on fi rst start-up

At the fi rst start-up, after the fi rst press on OK, you will be guided through the quick start process (see photos below), fi rst
System 1 and then System 2 (if System 2 is connected):

Initiation of wireless room sensor is only shown if the antenna is connected. See separate instruction.

When using two systems, a common menu is shown as fi rst picture. See pages 45-46.

Other basic settings

The maximum limit is set from 0-90 °C. Factory setting is 60 °C.
The setting is made in menu 7.4.

The minimum limit is set from 0-60 °C. Factory setting is 10 °C.
The setting is made in menu 7.4.

For more advanced settings, such as setting of night reduction etc. - see the relevant chapters for the control function you have
selected.

3.7 Installing the CP or separate room sensor

The CP can be fi tted on the CC or on the wall using the enclosed installation kit (plug and screw).

In its standard design, the CP has an integrated temperature sensor that is used as the room sensor. The position of the CP is
therefore decisive for correct operation when using the room sensor function.
The CP should be located centrally in the house, in a hall, stairway or similar space which is linked to as much of the rest of the
house as possible. Avoid rooms with a lot of supplementary heat sources, such as a kitchen, south-facing living room or upstairs
in a two storey house. Position the sensor away from direct sunlight. Avoid placing on an external wall or near an external door.
Make sure the sensor is not positioned closer than 1 m from the nearest radiator and around 1.5 m from the fl oor.

When using passive room sensor, wireless room sensor, only outdoor sensor or only supply sensor, the
position of the CP is unimportant.

For installation on the CC, see photo 13. The cover screws are then used to fi x the CP wall fi tting directly to the CC. The multi­cable is always pulled through the wall fi tting as shown in photo 14. Photo 15 shows installation with the CP on the CC.

This is where you see what the Supply pipe temperature, Room temperature and Out­door temperature (if outdoor sensor is being used) have been over the last few hours.

The supply sensor shows the last 200 minutes, every second minute. The values for the
other sensors change much more slowly, and here you can see the last 200 hours, every
second hour.

Use the up and down arrows to mark the sensor you want to view the statistics for, and
press OK to view a temperature graph. You then use the left or right arrows to move the
cursor at the bottom right of the graph to read the value for a specifi c minute or hour.
HINT: By pressing on the right arrow straight away you can jump to the oldest value.

Click Esc to return to the Statistics menu.

7.7 Pump/Add.heat

This is where you set whether you will use the function for start/stop of the circulation
pump to the heating system, booster heating etc. NOTE! An extra box is required.

Pump stop Room sensor cont On/Off – If this function is activated the pump
will stop when the control motor has been fully closed for 20 minutes. Thereafter, the
pump is run for 5 minutes at noon every day
NOTE! The time is retrieved from the set time. If not time is set, noon is regarded as
being 12 hours after system start-up. When the room sensor wants heating, the pump
restarts immediately.

V-pos.Add.heat – If you want booster heating to start when the valve is in a specifi c
position, you can set that here. 0 means that the motor is completely closed, 100 that
the motor is completely open.

Time delay heat – How long it must take after the above valve position is achieved
before the booster heating starts. Settable 0–254 min, >254 = ∞ (off).

Time delay vent – How long it must take from the booster heating starts until the
motor opens more. Settable 0–254 min.

Valve exercise. On/Off - When the Pump Stop is activated, you can select exer­cise of the mixing valve. The pump is then stopped and the motor runs until it is com­pletely open and back again to closed position before it is controlled normally again. This
takes place at 12 noon every Monday.

7.8 Alarm switch

Is used to send an alarm, e.g. SMS, if a specifi c temperature is exceeded/not reached
by a sensor. NOTE! Requires special equipment.
In the case of an alarm, connection is made on terminal block 11-12, marked “Alarm” in
the CC. Terminal 11 = ”+”.
Settable values are 0-90°C.
Alarms can be transmitted for: Sensor fault, Low room temperature, High supply tempe­rature or Low supply temperature.
