4040TXC6 thermostat operating as the MASTER
If the 4040TXC6 thermostat is paired with the first zone of the C6RX module, it automatically becomes the Master thermostat. Setting a vacation with the MASTER thermostat causes switching on the vacation mode in all thermostats assigned to the C6RX module.
Similarly, switching the Master thermostat off causes switching the other thermostats off

THERMOSTAT SETTINGS
**In this menu, you may change and select the following functions:

**

• Date/time
  The date setting sequence is year > month > day. Using buttons select a year. Confirm with the central button. Set a month and day. Follow the same procedure to set hours and minutes.

• Weekday language
  The thermostat may display weekdays in Polish, English, Italian, Spanish, French, and German or using universal symbols, where “1” stands for Monday, “2” for Tuesday, etc.

• Hysteresis/PWM
  Two operational options for activating the heating (cooling algorithm are available: hysteresis or PWM. In the case of hysteresis, the device is activated based only on a difference between the
  preset and current temperature. In order to set hysteresis go to the menu and select , then select .
  Use buttons to change the hysteresis value (the range is 0.2 °C… 10 °C; the factory setting is: 0.2

• PWM ( , is a more advanced method to achieve the preset temperature. It is suited for systems with underfloor water heating. It is used to limit room temperature fluctuations. Unlike in on/off controls the current status of the transmitter depends not only on the current difference between the preset and measured temperature but also on the past changes of temperature. For example, if the measured temperature is lower than the preset temperature for a long period the thermostat switches the heating device permanently on. To activate this function it is necessary to set three additional operation parameters:

  • CPH – maximum number of cycles per hour (3-10 . The thermostat calculates the number of switch-ons and switch-offs (cycles per hour (according to temperature changes .
  • CON – cycle duration period (2-10 . It is the minimum period (minutes for which the thermostat switches the transmitter each time.
  • PB – control bandwidth (0.5 °C…3 °C . If the difference between the preset and temperature is included in the proportional control band, then the thermostat selects the switch-on and switch-off times. Outside of this band, the output is in continuous on or off operation.

• Heating in advance
  Activating this function results in switching the heating on earlier in order to obtain the preset temperature at the required time. The time of advance in switching the heating on is calculated with an advanced algorithm, taking into account previous room heat-up times and the current temperature read-out. It takes the thermostat several days to calculate times for various temperatures correctly. To activate this function go to the thermostat menu and select .

• Thermostat interlock
  The thermostat features a setting interlock function. A four-digit code of your choice may be entered. In such cases, it is not possible to change the settings. A setting interlock does not affect the thermostat operation. To activate the interlock go to the setting menu and select , then use the keys to enter your code. Activating the interlock is signaled with icon. Follow the same steps to unlock the thermostat. This function is not active by default.

SERVICE SETTINGS

• Selection of temperature sensor
• Pairing mode
• Test mode
• Reset to factory settings

The service menu permits thermostat configuration according to the type of system. We suggest that you exercise special prudence when modifying these settings, because inappropriate settings may result in improper functioning of the system or extreme cases lead to damaging system components. In order to enter service settings press and hold for 5 seconds two buttons – the central and the right button. The window presented below is displayed. Service settings are unavailable when the thermostat is switched off or the batteries are flat. Navigate the menu the same way you did in previous windows. The service menu consists of the following elements:

Selection of temperature sensor
This option permits the selection of the temperature sensor to cooperate with the thermostat. There are three operation modes available:

• the thermostat measures and maintains the temperature based only on internal sensor operation
• the thermostat measures and maintains the temperature based only on external (cabled sensor operation
• the thermostat measures the temperature of both sensors; it maintains the temperature of an internal sensor, and the external sensor acts as a temperature limit. Having selected this operation mode set the floor temperature limit value. This parameter is used to establish the maximum safe floor temperature. When the preset temperature is reached, the device gets switched off.
• Temperature sensor correction. It adjusts the temperature read-out within the range of +/- 5 °C. The function is convenient if the thermostat is located in a slightly warmer or cooler area of the room. Press the central button to introduce a change. Use buttons to set the new value. Confirm with the central button
• Internal temperature sensor
• Wired temperature sensor
• Internal temperature sensor with floor temperature limit
• Correction of the displayed temperature

CAUTION! The floor temperature sensor is not included in the basic kit. Please order it separately. Connecting the sensor requires changing the thermostat base, therefore wall-mounting becomes necessary.
Pairing mode
It is used to establish the radio connection between the thermostat and the Euroster C6RX module.
Each thermostat has a unique number distinguishing it from other ones. It is not possible for any thermostat not paired with the particular C6RX module to interfere with the operation of another set. The thermostat may be paired with the module again at any time. A blackout, battery replacement, as well as a complete reset of all thermostat settings, do not affect the pairing of devices in any way.
The procedure of coupling the thermostat with the module is described in detail in the EUROSTER C6RX module user manual.

Test Mode
In the test mode, you may check the main parameters of the kit:

• program version and compilation date
• RX receiver relay operation – use to change the status of the relay
• internal sensor temperature measurement
• cabled sensor temperature measurement (if installed
• backlight operation – use to switch it on/off
• light sensor operation
• Strength of the radio signal between the thermostat and the receiver (transmission and reception

Reset
By selecting and confirming this item you restore the thermostat factory settings.

AIR-CONDITIONING
Air-conditioning mode is switched on by shortening the heating/cooling input in the C6RX module.
It is not possible to switch over heating/cooling using the thermostat.
Switching the air-conditioning on causes replacing the preset thermostat ranges with another – the ones stored for cooling. Returning to heating functions restores the previous ranges. This function enables the thermostat to operate with air-conditioning and heating without losing the settings. The switched-on device icon also changes.

NO RADIO COMMUNICATION
If the communication between the thermostat and the C6RX module is interrupted (e.g. due to discharged batteries and such condition lasts for 60 minutes, the given output in the C6RX module switches to the anti-frost mode. The heating device will be switched on for 20 minutes every 3 hours, in order to prevent extensive cooling of the rooms. At the time of re-establishing communication (replacement of batteries , the receiver switches the system off and automatically resumes operation.
No radio communication is signaled with the green diode flashing fast.

BATTERY SAVING FUNCTION
In order to activate the battery saving function put the operation mode switch in position. The date and time will not be displayed, the time of thermostat response to the data sent to and from the C6RX module will lengthen to 20 minutes. The weekly schedule will operate normally.

SWITCHING THE THERMOSTAT OFF
In order to switch the thermostat off hold the central button for 5 seconds. The symbol appears on the display. Frost protection ensures that the heating is turned on only to prevent the temperature from dropping below 4°C.
Hold the same button again in order to switch the thermostat on.
