    • Insert and gently twist screwdriver into the slot at the top and the bottom of the Control Interface. Do this procedure alternately between the four slots until the back cover of the control separates.
    • Use large enough flat blade screwdriver to fit into the slot in order to avoid damaging the Control Interface.

  2.  Mount back cover to the wall
    • Mount the back cover to the wall with screws (not  supplied) via screw holes. If required, the use of aplasterboard mounting bracket (not supplied) is recommended to mount the back cover to the wall.
    • Ensure that the Control Interface back cover is aligned and leveled on the wall before tightening the screws.

  3. Connect wiring at the back of Control Interface
    • Ensure that all wiring is tightly connected. All wiring must be in accordance with the provided wiring diagram. CUT OFF AND DO NOT CONNECT GREEN /GREEN-WHITE PAIR

  4. Attach PCB casing to the back cover
    • Attach the PCB casing by aligning with the back cover mounted on the wall.
    • Ensure the PCB casing makes a ‘click’ sound after mounting.

  5. Select zone buttons
    • Remove the relevant zone buttons for zone name to be allocated and attach to wall control.
    • Ensure the buttons make a ‘click’ sound when attached to the PCB casing.
    NOTE
    Front cover can be removed even after installation. Press at the bottom of the control interface and pull the front cover.

  6. Attach the front cover, as shown in the diagram below

**Controller Assignment

**

NOTE
For installations where an LR7 is being installed with a Neo Wall Control, C-1 will always need to be assigned to the Neo Wall Control.
Upon initial start up of the system, all connected LR7 controls (up to 3) will display C-0. After 3 seconds, an auto assignment process will take place with the auto-assigned controller ID displayed on the screen C-1, C-2 and C-3. The user can change the controller assignment between C-1 and C-3 with the buttons. For the system to function correctly, a C-1 controller must be present, with each controller requiring a unique controller assignment. The displayed text will remain on the controller until user acknowledges the assignment by pressing the PROG button to enter the Home Screen.
NOTE
If the C-0 display did not change, check the wiring between the controller and Indoor Unit Board.
This may be caused by:

  • Loose or interchanged wire connection or (between Controller and Indoor Unit Board)
  • No communication between the controller and Indoor Unit Board due to faulty cable
    Upon subsequent power cycles, all controllers will show their controller ID for 3 seconds before proceeding to the Home Screen.

Manual Controller Assignment

  1. Press and hold the REPEAT and TIMER buttons for 3 seconds then release to enter Service Menu.
  2.  Press the PROG button to enter Service Menu 01.
  3.  Press the buttons to select the appropriate controller assignment.
  4.  Press the PROG button to accept the selection.
  5.  Press the EXIT button once to return to Main Screen.

NOTE
In the case of disconnecting the C-1 controller from the system, the other LR7 controllers will show an error code (E56 – No main wall controller detected). To troubleshoot this error code:

  • Troubleshoot C-1 LR7 controller – check the wiring & connection of the controller. If E56 is still being displayed on C-2 and C-3, connect a replacement LR7 controller. During its first power on cycle, it will auto assign itself to the vacant address.

Sensor Enable/Calibration
