CLAGE FX 2400-26050 Remote control FX for instantaneous water heaters

Safety notes
This remote control may only be installed and started up for the first time by an authorized specialized company. Responsibility for compliance with the applicable stand-ards and installation regulations rests entirely on the company installing the appliance. We cannot accept any liability for damage and losses due to non-compliance with these instructions. The handling of the appliance and the remote control are equitable. The last set temperature will be used by the instantaneous water heater. Make sure not to set a high temperature, inadvertently. We recommend to activate the temperature limit function (see manual of the instan-taneous water heater. Flat batteries can leak and damage the remote control. Hence, replace flat batteries right away as soon as bat-tery symbol lights up in the display or the remote control does not response after keystroke. When the remote control is not to be used in the long term, remove the batteries. Do not expose the remote control to moisture.The remote control and the wall bracket should not get close to items with magnetic strips, like credit cards etc. The built in magnets can damage the card’s magnetic strip.

Description of appliance

The FX remote control allows a convenient operation of the instantaneous water heaters MCX, CEX, CFX, DEX and DSX even if the heater is installed under a sink or in a secondary room. An energy-efficient and adequate choice of the water temperature is furthermore possible under these conditions with the FX remote control. The communication between the remote control and the instantaneous water heater is bi-directional. Due to this technology the data transfer is secured even under difficult installation conditions.To connect this remote control to a MCX, CEX, DEX or DSX intanteneous water heater, the provided transmission unit must be installed.

Installation

Optional installation with dowels and screws.

Mounting the wall bracket

• Before attaching the wall bracket to the wall, ensure that the remote control has radio contact to the ins-tantaneous water heater from its designated position.
• The wall bracket of the remote control can either be attached securely with the included adhesive tape, after stripping off the protection film on a plain surface  e.g. a tile or with suitable dowels (Ø 4 mm) and screws.
• When using the adhesive tape it is not possible to adjust the position afterwards because of the strong adherence of the glue. Therefore, pay attention to a horizontal alignment when attaching it.
• he remote control is magnetically retained at the wall bracket.

Mounting the transmission unit inside a MCX

Attention
Before assembling the transmis-sion unit disconnect the instan-taneous water heater from the mains supply. Pay attention to the proper posi-tion of the connector. The connector has to be fitted into the notch properly.

Initial operation

In delivery condition, the remote control is registerd to radio channel 50. We recommend changing this channel at the initial installation.

1. Make sure that the power supply to the instantaneous water heater is switched on (fuse) and that the LED of the MCX display or the LCD of the CEX / DEX /DSX display shows the latest set value.
2. After inserting the batteries in the remote control, its display indicates all symbols for about 4 seconds.
3. During this time, press and hold the arrow buttons and for a short time.
4. Then the display shows the current channel (1 to 99) and a flashing radio symbol.
5. Using the arrow buttons and chooses the desired channel.
6. Press button to confirm the selected channel number.
7. The display changes to registration mode and shows as well as a flashing radio symbol.
8. Place the remote control directly in front of the instantaneous water heater.
9. The display switches to the setpoint value display.

In the case of an unsuccessful registration the display indicates no by a flashing radio signal after 45 seconds. The remote control quits the registration process and switches to standby mode. By pressing a button the reg-istration process will be repeated.

Notes
With no remote control registered or without working radio connection, the instantaneous water heater heats to the prior selected set temperature. After replacing the batteries, a new registration is not required. Only register again after performed work reset CEX, CFX, DEX and DSX or when the remote control dis-play continually indicates no.

Handling

The remote control is equipped with the following func-tions:

Arrow buttons

You can set the required temperature gradually to a lower or higher value using the arrow two buttons.

Note
If the temperature display is set to with arrow button , the instantaneous water heater switches off the heating function.

Programme buttons

The two programme buttons and allow to quickly select the preset temperature without the need to press the and buttons several times. If the temperature display is set to “–“ with arrow
button , the instantaneous water heater switches off the heating function.The factory setting for programme is 35°C and for programme it is 48°C. You can assign your own set-tings for the programme buttons. Select the desired temperature with and to save the current temperature, press the pro-gramme button or for about two seconds.

Displayed information

The representation corresponds to the temperature dis-play of the CEX, DEX or DSX display after a keystroke on the remote control. The description of the function can be found in the manual of the instantaneous water heater.

Radio communication

The display of the water heaters CEX and DSX show a radio symbol , if a remote control is detected. This radio symbol is displayed on the remote control, if a but-ton is pressed or the initial operation is in process.

Battery

If the batteries of the remote control are flat, the battery symbol is displayed. In this case, exchange the batteries within a short period of time. Energy saving mode  shows that the appliance works in an energy saving mode, i.e. the momentary energy con-sumption is subject to the selected temperature and to the flow rate in the energy saving mode.

Power limit MAX

If the full output of the instantaneous water heater does not suffice to heat the tapped quantity of water, this will be indicated by on the LCD.

Operation with preheated water

If the cold water inlet temperature is higher than the set value of the hot water outlet, the instantaneous water heater will not heat. In this case no power is emitted and the sun symbol is displayed.

Communication of the remote control

After a keystroke the remote control connects to the instantaneous water heater. When tapping water without a preceding keystroke, the remote control’s display will not be refreshed. After a keystroke the remote control updates its display every 10 seconds as long as water is flowing. When the water flow stops the remote control updates its display three more times, before the remote control enters the energy saving mode. Without working radio connection, the appliance heats to the prior selected set value.
