FITTING THE RECEIVER
Switch off the boiler at the electrical supply. Remove the boiler outer casing and control panel fascia to gain access to the heatronic control panel.

1. Release securing screw [A].
2. Pull cover panel [B] upwards to remove.
3. Grip the tab [C], pull upwards to disengage clips [D], and pull forward to remove the blanking plate [E] or existing programmer. Align connector pins [F] into receptors [G] in the circuit board and push fully home.
4. Feed the ribbon cable [G] into recess [H]. Align receiver module [J] and locate clips [D], push into slots then downwards to secure using grip tab [C].
5. Locate the cover panel [B] and secure it with a screw [A].
6. Replace the fascia cover and outer casing before switching on the electricity supply.
7. Switch the boiler on when completed

PRE-COMMISSIONED TRANSMITTER & RECEIVER LOCATION
The MT10RF Mechanical Thermostat and Receivers are pre-commissioned (paired) at the factory.

• Fit and connect the Receiver in the boiler control panel, see page 7.
• Locate a flat-bladed screwdriver into the slots in the base plate [B] as shown, and twist to release the Transmitter [A] from the base plate [B]. Switch the electrical power to the boiler.
• Fit the batteries correctly into the battery compartment [F] of the Transmitter [A].
• The Transmitter and Receiver will communicate immediately. The boiler‘s receiver LED will briefly flash twice when a signal is received.

FUNCTIONAL CHECK

• Move the manual switch on the Transmitter to the constant comfort position.
• Rotate the Comfort temperature dial to 30 °C.
• If the room temperature is less than 30 °C, then within 10 to 30 seconds of making the adjustments detailed above, the LED on the receiver will briefly flash twice while detecting the transmitter signal and then remain on. The boiler will fire.
• If the operation is successful, rotate the comfort dial to your desired room temperature.
• Move the manual switch on the Transmitter to the Automatic position.
• Programme the Transmitter to the end user‘s requirements, see page 12.
• If the operation is not successful, follow the
• The transmitter radio link is set up on page 10.

TRA NSMITTER LOCATION
Position the Transmitter [A] as close to the main living area as possible on an inside wall. Mount approximately 1.5m (5‘) above the floor within the maximum range of the boiler‘s Receiver.
Keep the Transmitter away from:

•  light and heat sources
• enclosures and curtains
• direct draughts, including fans, air vents, windows, and doors
• damp and condensation

TRANSMITTER RADIO LINK SET UP

The procedure will only have to be followed if problems have been experienced with the pre-commissioned procedure or if:  replacing equipment already installed, recommissioning existing equipment

REMOVE THE TRANSMITTER FROM THE BASE PLATE
Locate a flat-bladed screwdriver into the slots in the base plate [B] as shown.  Twist to release the Transmitter [A] from the base plate [B]

ESTABLISH A RADIO LINK
Press and hold button [C] down on the Receiver for approximately five seconds to enter the setup mode with the LED [D] on continuously. The Receiver is now ready to accept a setup signal from the Transmitter for up to two minutes.

• Fit the batteries correctly into the battery compartment [F].
• Open the sliding panel to press and release the reset button (see Fig 33)
• The transmitter sends a set-up signal to the
• Receiver. Set-up signals are sent for three minutes after pressing and releasing reset.

When the radio link has been established the LED will briefly flash twice and extinguish. This link remains even in the event of a power loss. However, if a radio link has not been established, repeat the set-up procedure: as the batteries are already fitted in the Transmitter, simply press and release the reset button to re-initiate continuous transmission of the set-up signal for three minutes.

NOTICE
All relevant safety precautions must be undertaken. Protective clothing, footwear, gloves, and safety goggles must be worn as appropriate

TRANSMITTER CLEARANCES

• 5 – 30 °C for Comfort
•  5 – 15 °C for Economy

Typical Comfort and Economy Temperature settings are shown below

SELECTING PROGRAMS
Move the selector switch [L] to set: Automatic, Comfort, or Economy. Automatic (switches between and uses both Comfort and Economy temperature settings according to the tappets). Constant Comfort (continuously on using Comfort temperature setting). Constant Economy (continuously using economy temperature setting). Replace cover [D] when finished.

RECEIVER FUNCTIONS
LED [A] is continuously on when there is a demand for heating and continuously off when there is no demand for heating.

SIGNAL RECEIVER
LED [A] flashes twice each time a signal is received from the transmitter.

LOW BATTERY STATE
LED [A] flashes slowly, on for one second and off for one second. Replace the transmitter batteries as shown under the “Battery replacement” section and the receiver will revert back to normal operation.

EMERGENCY MODE

****If a signal is not received for 60 minutes LED [A] continues to flash rapidly and the central heating is switched off. Press button [B] and release for manual override and to switch the central heating on.
Press again to switch the central heating off. Once a signal is received from the transmitter the receiver and heating will revert back to normal operation.
