Product Overview

The RT310 room thermostat simply switches the heating system on and off as necessary. It works by sensing the air temperature, switching on the heating when the air temperature falls below the thermostat setting, and switching it off once this set temperature has been reached. Recommended for controlling e.g. heating panels or electric heaters.

Turning a room thermostat to a higher setting will not make the room heat up any faster. How quickly the room heats up depends on the design of the heating system, for example, the size of boiler and radiators. Neither does the setting affect how quickly the room cools down. Turning a room thermostat to a lower setting will result in the room being controlled at a lower temperature, and saves energy.

The heating system will not work if a time switch or programmer has switched it off.

The way to set and use your room thermostat is to find the lowest temperature setting that you are comfortable with, and then leave it alone to do its job. The best way to do this is to set the room thermostat to a low temperature – say 18⁰C – and then turn it up by one degree each day until you are comfortable with the temperature.

You won’t have to adjust the thermostat further. Any adjustment above this setting will waste energy and cost you more money.

If your heating system is a boiler with radiators, there will usually be only one room thermostat to control the whole house. But you can have different temperatures in individual rooms by installing thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) on individual radiators. If you don’t have TRVs, you should choose a temperature that is reasonable for the whole house. If you do have TRVs, you can choose a slightly higher setting to make sure that even the coldest room is comfortable, then prevent any overheating in other rooms by adjusting the TRVs.

Room thermostats need a free flow of air to sense the temperature, so they must not be covered by curtains or blocked by furniture. Nearby electric fires, televisions, wall or table lamps may prevent the thermostat from working properly

RT310TX thermostat pairing with the SR868 relay receiver

The word PAIRING in the user settings means the function of synchronizing the transmitter with the receiver again, if it has been removed.

WARNING!
IN THE SET RT310SR THE THERMOSTAT IS FACTORY PAIRED WITH THE SR868 RECEIVER!

In order to pair the devices correctly, you must first prepare the receiver for synchronization!

Connect the receiver to a 230V power supply (see its manual). Press and hold the
button. After 5 seconds, the red LED will flash, which means the SR868 relay is ready to
pair with the thermostat.| Press and hold TEST / PAIRING
button for 3 seconds.
Thermostat started pairing process. It can take up to 9 minutes. Attention! Forcing the pairing process will generate a new communication code. All receivers previously paired with the thermostat will be irretrievably deleted from its memory.| When the red diode on the receiver lights up continuously, the devices have been paired on a new frequency.| Press and hold TEST / PAIRING button for 3 seconds to end pairing process.
Thermostat will go back to the main screen and it has been paired successfully

RT310TX thermostat pairing with few other receivers

The word PAIRING in the user settings means the function of synchronizing the transmitter with the receiver again, if it has been removed.

REMEMBER! If the thermostat is already paired with any receiver, you will have to pair it again with other receivers. You can pair few receivers with 1 thermostat RTRX510, SPE868 and SR868.

FIRST, PREPARE ALL THE RECEIVERS YOU WANT TO PAIR WITH THE THERMOSTAT. THE PREPARATION OF THE RECEIVERS FOR THE PAIRING PROCESS IS CONFIRMATION OF THE RED LED FLASHING ON THEM.

If you want to re-pair the devices with each other, make sure that the receiver is disconnected from the power supply and the switches on it are in the AUTO and ON positions. Then connect the receiver to the power supply and wait for the red diode to glow continuously| Move the top switch to the OFF position with a quick motion and back to the ON position.| The red LED will start blinking, which will confirm that the receiver has entered the pairing mode.
|
Connect the receiver to a 230V power supply (see its manual). Press and hold the button. After 5 seconds, the red LED will flash, which means the SR868 relay is ready to pair with the thermostat.| Connect the plug to a 230V power supply (see its manual). Press and hold the button. After 5 seconds, the red LED will flash, which means the SPE868 plug is ready to pair with the thermostat.

Press and hold TEST / PAIRING button for 3 seconds.| Thermostat started pairing process. It can take up to 9 minutes. Attention! Forcing the pairing process will generate a new communication code. All receivers previously paired with the thermostat will be irretrievably deleted from its memory.

AFTER A SUCCESSFUL PAIRING, THE RECEIVER’S LEDS WILL GLOW CONSTANTLY RED:

Press and hold TEST / PAIRING
button for 3 seconds to end pairing process.| Thermostat will go back to the main screen and it has been paired successfully.

Test the pairing process

It is important to place the receiver and transmitter in places where nothing interferes with the radio signal. The range of communication between the transmitter and the receiver in an open area is up to 60m. The radio transmission is influenced by many factors that can shorten the working distance, such as thick walls, drywall covered with aluminum foil, metal objects such as cabinets, general radio interference, etc. However, the range is sufficient for most domestic use. It is recommended to test the radio transmission between devices before mounting the regulator on the wall. The test can be performed by changing the set temperature, i.e. by activating or deactivating the heating.

Press TEST / PAIRING button to check the connection with the receiver.| Antenna icon will display. Test mode can take up to 9 minutes.| The green LED on the SR868 smart plug receiver will begin to flash.

Press TEST /  PAIRING button again to return to the main screen.| SR868 will go back to normal work mode.

If you purchased an SR868 or RT310TX and intend pairing with other devices in the 5×5 range, please  refer to the Receiver Units manual or the relevant manuals available at www.salus-controls.eu
