DESCRIPTION

The temperature controller (VMB1TC) forms in combination with one or more temperature se nsors (VMB1TS) and relay modules (VMB1RY or VMB4RY) a programmable thermostat to control a heating or cooling installation. The different sensors can be adjusted, operated and programmed from one lo cation by using this temperature controller. Multiple controllers at multiple locations are possible. It is also possible to define zones to group the sensors.

OVERVIEW HEATING INSTALLATION

A heating installation usually consists of radiators or convectors, a boiler, circulation pump and a collector with valves for every radiator group. Every room is equipped with a temperature sensor VMB1TS which is controlled by one or multiple temperature controllers VMB1TC. The sensors in turn steer the relay modules VMB4RY (or VMB1RY) that control the valves. As soon as one of the valves is opened, a relay channel can activate the circulation pump and when one of the sensors is in day or comfort mode, a relay channel can put the boiler in day mode. When convectors with built-in fan are used, a relay channel can steer this fan in case the room temperature deviates too much from the desired temperature, e.g. to speed up heating in the morning.

CONNECTION

To interconnect the Velbus modules the use of twisted-pair cable (EIB 2x2x0.8mm2, UTP 8x0.51mm - CAT5 or equivalent) is recommended. Connect the bus to the module (beware of the polarity). Connect the 12V to 18V direct current to the module (beware of the polarity).

Connecting the temperature controller VMB1TC

Connecting the temperature sensor VMB1TS

Relay cabinet wiring

Terminator

Normally only 2 ‘TERM’ terminators must be used in a complete Velbus installation. Usually this will be on the end of 2 bus wires (for example in the attic and in the basement.

On all other modules, the terminator must be removed.

Remark: In case the wiring contains a lot of branches, still a terminator will be set on the end of 2 bus wires (= 2 terminators). When communication errors occur, an additional terminator can be set as close as possible to one of the two existing terminators. However, the number of terminators should be limited as more terminators place a heavy load on the bus (max 3).

Addressing

The address of the temperature controller is set via Velbuslink

Allocate the relay channels

Every temperature sensor module VMB1TS can steer a relay channel to:

 open the valve that provides hot water to the radiator  switch on the fan of a convector to speed up heating (when the difference between desired temperature and room

temperature is too high)

 set the boiler in day mode  switch on the air-conditioning  switch on the circulation pump (when on of the valves is open)  generate an alarm at low room temperature (heating system down)  generate an alarm at high room temperature (valve fails to close)

Every relay channel that is steered by a temperature sensor must be placed in instant control. The easiest way to allocate those relay channels is by using the Velbus link software via a PC connected to a Velbus interface (VMB1USB, VMB1RS or VMBRSUSB).

Master clock

When your Velbus installation contains multiple modules with built-in clock (temperatu re controllers VMB1TC and control panel VMB4PD) it is important that all clocks have the same time setting. This can be achieved by setting the clock of one module as reference (master). This module will then synchronize the other module clocks every day. This function is default disabled.

Global alarm

This setting only applies when multiple temperature controllers are connected to your Velbus installation. Default the global alarm function is disabled. Changing the alarm time on a module that has the global alarm function enabled will result in changing the alarm time on all temperature controllers that have the global alarm function enabled. For modules that have the global alarm time disabled, changes in alarm time will only apply to that module.

Battery backup

To avoid losing the clock when a power failure occurs, a backup battery (3V Lithium CR2032) can be installed in the battery holder at the back of the module. To avoid premature depletion of the battery, only install it when permanent power is supplied to the Velbus system.

The temperature controller can display a message when the battery needs repl acement.

The wake-up time can be used with the thermostat program but also to perform a certain action e.g. switching off staircase lighting, opening the roll-down window shutters, switching certain mains outlets on or off… This can be set via Velbuslink

Assign an action to the go-to-bed time

The go-to-bed time can be used with the thermostat program but also to perform a certain action e.g. switching on staircase lighting, closing the roll-down window shutters, switching certain mains outlets off… This can be set via Velbuslink

Searching for temperature sensors

Before the controller can work together with the temperature sensors VMB1TS it must first scan the network for all connected temperature sensors. When temperature sensors are installed or removed afterwards, the search process must be repeated to update the list of sensors to the new situation.

Setting the clock

This module works together with one or more temperature sensoresVMB1TS to form a programmable thermostat. It is important to set the right time for the internal clock. Setting the time on this module will set the clocks of all clock containing modules that are connected to the Velbus simultaneously.

1. Open the menu by pressing the ‘Menu’ button.
