OVERVIEW

This device is a digital battery thermostat for room temperature control with the possibility to choose between different regulation modes and related set- point temperatures: Comfort, Reduction, Off/Antifreeze.

The device can be used both in heating and cooling systems, and it is featured with a wide backlit display for the visualization of all the functional indications and the detected room temperature. The detection of the room temperature can be performed by the internal sensor or by a remote sensor (optional).

Furthermore, the device offers the possibility to set the value of the antifreeze temperature and the Offset regulation on the internal and remote sensor.

STARTING UP

When starting up for the first time:

• Insert the batteries paying attention to the polarity markings shown in the battery compartment (see ‘INSERTION / BATTERIES REPLACEMENT’).
• Set the operating mode of the thermostat (user parameter ‘ H_C ’): Heating (factory default) or Cooling.

Regulation mode set-up

There are two modes to regulate the room temperature that can be chosen by pressing ‘ ‘.

• Comfort: the thermostat sets the room temperature in comfort mode; this is normally the chosen temperature during day-time.
• Economy: the thermostat sets the room temperature in economy mode; this is normally the chosen temperature during night-time.

Comfort and Economy temperatures regulation

When in normal functioning mode, the display shows the detected room temperature and the icon related to the set regulation mode. To visualize the related set set-point temperature push once one of the key ‘ ‘ or ‘ ‘ the display visualizes the set-point temperature and the icon ‘ ’ (showing that the set-point temperature is being displayed).

The icon ‘ ’ lit together with the blinking icon ‘ ‘, indicating that the display is showing the ‘Comfort’ set-point temperature or it can lit together with the blinking icon ‘ ‘ indicating that the display is showing the ‘Reduction’ set-point temperature.
Pressing the keys ‘ ‘ and ’ ’ it is possible to modify the displayed set-point temperature. Pressing the key ‘ ‘ while the display is showing the ‘Comfort’ set-point temperature, the display switches to the ’Reduction’ set-point visualization. Vice versa, if the display was showing the ’Reduction’ set- point, pushing the key ‘ ‘ the display switches to the ’Comfort’ setpoint visualization.
Pushing the key ‘ ’ or after a few seconds of inactivity, goes back to the visualization of the detected room temperature.

Note: Usually, in order to get a temperature reduction at night, the economy temperature should have a lower value than the comfort one.

Temperature display

During normal operation the display shows the room temperature detected by the internal sensor, distinguished by the icon ‘ ‘, or the room temperature detected by the remote sensor (if connected) distinguished by the icon ‘ ‘.
The detected temperatures are displayed corrected by the set Offset value.

In case the parameter ‘ rEG ‘ is set on ‘ EHt ‘, but the remote sensor is not connected or is damaged, the display shows the icon ‘ ‘ with the blinking ‘ ←‘ arrow showing that the regulation of the temperature has been automatically shifted on the internal sensor, while remaining the parameter set on ‘ EHt ‘ (external sensor).

Switching off – Antifrost function

To switch off the thermostat press the ‘ ’ button.
The display will show the writing ‘ OFF ’ and the symbol ‘ ’.
If the thermostat has been set in the heating mode, the Antifrost function will be active and the ‘ ‘ symbol will appear on the display; in this case the room temperature will be controlled relying on the value set for the Antifrost temperature (see chapter ‘SETTING THE USER PARAMETERS‘).

Backlighting

The display backlight turns on whenever and button is pressed.
It turns off automatically 20 seconds after the last key press.

WARNING
During normal operation, the activation of the relay in Heating mode is showed by the lit icon ‘ ‘ while, on the opposite, the activation of the relay in Cooling mode is showed by the lit icon ‘ ‘.

‘ t_SA ’ SAMPLING TIME SETTING

This parameter allows to define the sampling time (in minutes) of the thermostat, with the aim to optimize battery life. Or rather, the thermostat will detect the room temperature according with the setting of the parameter and consequently, decide the activation or deactivation of the relay.

Substantially, the shorter the sampling time is, the more the consumes will rise, due to an higher number of on / off cycles of the relay, and consequently the battery life diminishes.
The device comes with a factory default with the parameter set on 3 minutes.

To set the sampling time, perform the following operations:

1. Select the parameter ‘ t_SA ’ and press ‘ ‘ button.
2. The display shows the sampling time previously set.

4. The thermostat is deactivated; to activate the thermostat push the key ‘ ’.

WARNING!
Restoring the Default Data will reset all settings made by the user, such as Heating/Cooling, Set-Points and all other programmable data.

EXTERNAL NTC SENSOR

The thermostat features an input for connecting an external NTC sensor (optional) alternatively the internal one.
The external sensor can be used to measure the room temperature when the thermostat is installed in a position which does not allow a correct measurement of the room temperature.

When the installation requires to be set with a remote sensor, it is necessary to regulate correctly the parameter ‘ rEG ‘ and connect an NTC 10 KOhm at 25°C sensor to the connector JST 2 poles of Fig. 10.

If in doubt about the type of sensor to be connected, please consult the manufacturer.
The thermostat comes with factory default already set for the operation with the internal sensor.

HOW TO INSERT / REPLACE BATTERIES

The battery life status is constantly displayed by the ‘ ‘ symbol.
The battery life is full if all three level indicators are lit inside the symbol.

If the ‘ ‘ symbol (completely empty) flashes, it means that the batteries are depleted and must be replaced.
If the display shows the blinking writing ‘ bAtt ‘, it means that the batteries are too short on energy to allow the operation of the thermostat.

To replace the batteries proceed as follows:

1. Using a blade screwdriver, extract the battery holder drawer (Fig. 2 and 3).
2. Remove the batteries, pulling them out using a tool, if necessary.
3. Insert new batteries, which must be alkaline 1.5V type AAA.
4. Put back the battery holder drawer, pushing it to the end, Fig. 12. The thermostat turns on automatically.

INSTALLATION

WARNING!

• To set properly the room temperature, install the thermostat far from heat sources, airstreams or particularly cold walls (thermal bridges). These indications must be applied to place the remote sensor when this is used to acquire the room temperature.
• A remote sensor must be connected using wires having at least 1.5 mm² section and no longer than 15 metres. Do not use the same channelling for sensor signal and mains voltage.
• If the load controlled by the relay of the thermostat operates with mains voltage, the connection must be made via an omnipolar switch complying with current standards and with a contact opening of at least 3 mm in each pole.
• Installation and electrical wirings of this device must be performed by qualified technicians and in compliance with the current standards.
• Before wiring the appliance be sure to turn the mains power off.

The device is designed to be installed in a standard recess (or wall) mounted junction box with two modules or else directly on the wall using the screw anchors provided.

To install the device perform the following steps:

1. Extract the battery holder drawer: insert the flat-blade of a screwdriver tip in the hole and pull up the drawer as shown in figures 2 and 3.

2. Push, with the help of a screwdriver, the plastic tooth located on the slot on the bottom side, then slightly lift up the plastic cover (Fig. 4).

3. Lift up the cover, while pressing it slightly, until it is fully extracted (Fig. 5).
   

4. Fix the base directly on a wall or on 2-modules wiring boxes through the two screws seats with 60 mm wheelbase paying attention to push the cables through the hole as shown in Fig. 6.
   

5. Make the electrical wirings following the connection diagrams of Fig. 7 and 8.
   ——: Reinforced insulation.

The load must be wired to terminal block ‘E’ shown in Fig. 9. Connect the remote sensor, if required, to connector ‘F’ shown in Fig. 10.

WARNING
The outputs, terminals 3, 4 and 5, are tension-free and insulated with double insulation from the other parts of the thermostat. So, it is possible to power an high voltage load (230V~), as can be seen in Fig. 7 and 8.
In this case it is necessary to keep a separation between the remote sensor cables and the load wires, according to the current standards. In particular, it is necessary to fix the group of cables with cable ties separating the SELV wires from the others to avoid that if a wire gets disconnected accidentally, this won’t reduce the insulation towards SELV.

6. Close the thermostat as follows:

   • Match the two teeth located in the upper side of the plastic base with the two slots located on the plastic cover.
   • Close the upper side of the cover while, at the same time, slightly pressing with a finger the plastic tooth on the bottom side of the base making it lean towards the inner side of the thermostat (see the arrow in Fig. 11).
   • Complete the rotation of the cover until the plastic tooth on the base snaps into position.

7. Insert the batteries into the battery holder drawer and put it back in the thermostat.
