SKU: POPE010101

Quickstart

This is a Thermostat for Europe. To run this device please insert fresh 2 * AA batteries. Please make sure the internal battery is fully charged. Click on the
function button "*" will confirm inclusion or exclusion and wakeup the device for wireless communication. A long push for 3 seconds on the function button
enters and leaves the management mode indicated by a "M" on the LCD display.

What is Z-Wave?

Z-Wave is the international wireless protocol for communication in the Smart Home. This device is suited for use in the region mentioned in the Quickstart section.

Z-Wave ensures a reliable communication by reconfirming every message (two-way communication) and
every mains powered node can act as a repeater for other nodes (meshed network) in case the receiver is
not in direct wireless range of the transmitter.

This device and every other certified Z-Wave device can be used together with any other certified Z-
Wave device regardless of brand and origin as long as both are suited for the same frequency range.

If a device supports secure communication it will communicate with other devices secure as long as this
device provides the same or a higher level of security. Otherwise it will automatically turn into a lower level
of security to maintain backward compatibility.

For more information about Z-Wave technology, devices, white papers etc. please refer to www.z-wave.info.

Product Description

This device is a Z-Wave controlled electronic radiator thermostat. It is mounted on wall heating valves and controls them by a motor. The device accepts a setpoint
that is either set manually using buttons on the device or wirelessly using Z-Wave. Afterwards, the device will regulate the warm water supply to the wall radiator
and compare the detected temperature to ensure, that the temperature in the room is kept at the desired level. A small LCD panel on the device displays the
setpoint temperature on request. Beside setting a desired temperature the device will support special heating schemes, such as energy saving and frost
protection and intelligent functions like a valve training function to ensure that valves are still operational after longer periods. The Popp radiator thermostat can be
mounted to valves with standard M30x1.5 connector or RA2000. Opposite to the Danfoss TRV this device will report the room temperature as detected and
calculated by the device’s temperature sensor.

Prepare for Installation / Reset

Please read the user manual before installing the product.

In order to include (add) a Z-Wave device to a network it must be in factory default state. Please make sure to reset the device into factory default. You can do
this by performing an Exclusion operation as described below in the manual. Every Z-Wave controller is able to perform this operation however it is recommended
to use the primary controller of the previous network to make sure the very device is excluded properly from this network.

Reset to factory default

This device also allows to be reset without any involvement of a Z-Wave controller. This procedure should only be used when the primary controller is inoperable.

Remove the batteries and keep the function button "*" pressed for 5 seconds after the batteries are inserted back.

Safety Warning for Batteries

The product contains batteries. Please remove the batteries when the device is not used. Do not mix batteries of different charging level or different brands.

Installation

Adjustment to the radiator

The device can be adjusted to the room size. Three room sizes are known. The factory setting is P2. Use P1 if the radiator appears oversized for the room. Use P3
if it is undersized. To change the assumed room size press (p) for 3 seconds to enter management mode (M in display). Press (v) until a "P" is displayed in the
LCD display. Hit the (o) button. Now select 1, 2 or 3 using the arrow keys and exit with (o).

Removal

To remove the thermostat, insert an appropriate tool in the hole in the thermostat"s battery chamber (see illustration). Keeping the tool in position, turn the entire
thermostat anticlockwise until it is completely unscrewed.

Adjusting to the valve

During the first night of operation TRV will shut off the radiator heat and then open again to detect the exact opening point of the valve. This will allow TRV to
control the heat as efficiently as possible. If necessary, the procedure is repeated once a night for up to a week. You might experience the valve being warm
during the adjustment procedure, regardless of the room temperature.

Intelligent Control (Forecast)

During the first week of operation TRV learns when it is necessary to start heating the room in order to reach the correct temperature at the correct time. The
intelligent control will continuously adjust the heating time compared to seasonal temperature changes.

Inclusion/Exclusion

On factory default the device does not belong to any Z-Wave network. The device needs to be added to an existing wireless network to communicate with the
devices of this network. This process is called Inclusion.

Devices can also be removed from a network. This process is called Exclusion. Both processes are initiated by the primary controller of the Z-Wave network. This
controller is turned into exclusion respective inclusion mode. Inclusion and Exclusion is then performed doing a special manual action right on the device.

Inclusion

Click on the middle button will confirm inclusion or exclusion and wakeup the device for wireless communication. A long push for 3 seconds on the middle
buttons enters and leaves the management mode indicated by a "M".

Exclusion

Click on the middle button will confirm inclusion or exclusion and wakeup the device for wireless communication. A long push for 3 seconds on the middle
buttons enters and leaves the management mode indicated by a "M".

Product Usage

The TRV is operated by wireless commands from a Z-Wave controller.

Direct setting of Temperature Set Point by Controller. (Attention: There may be a delay in execution of a setpoint command due to the wakeup interval
of the device. If the setpoint is to be changed at e.g. 16.00 and the wakeup interval is 15 minutes, make sure to send the command latest at 15.45)

The actual temperature setpoint is shown in the LCD display and can be overwritten by using the arrow keys on the device. This overwriting is temporary and only
valid until the next change of the temperature setpoint (either triggered from external wireless command or from the internal downloaded schedule) becomes
active.

The actual measured ambient temperature is not shown on the LCD display but is reported to the central gateway.

The device will also recognize an open window (sudden temperature drop within short period of time) and turn down the heat for 30 minutes to save energy.

Local LCD Display

The local LCD display gives information about the status of the device
