Installation

Installation by a person with electronical expertise and training on this product only! Do not install the device unless you have removed the main power supply (main breaker or fuses)!

Installing the K-Box

Step 1	Remove power from the electrical panel.
Step 2	Remove the cover panel so you can access the wires.
Step 3	Verify that there is no tension on the wires you intend to

manipulate.
Step 4| Ensure that there is a short-circuit protection for 3 phases (breaker or fuse) before the K-Box not larger than 420 V 65 A.
Step 5| Put the K-Box on the DIN rail of the home distribution box and ensure the hook is locked properly ( IMAGE 3 ).

Remove the protection covers from the terminals ( IMAGE 4 ).

Step 6| Prepare the cables. Refer to Specifications on page 8 for supported rat- ings and cable diameters.
Step 7| Connect the wires to the K-Box ( IMAGE 6 ):

· From left to right, connect Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Neutral.

· Wires for top terminals are coming from the source.

· Wires for bottom terminals are going to load.

| Tighten all clamp screws with enough torque. Insufficient clamping force can result in high contact resistance that leads to device heating and can result in a fire hazard.
Step 8| Lift the cover of the relay terminals ( IMAGE 5 ). Connect the relay contacts as indicated in IMAGE 7 :

· COM – Change over

· NC – Normally closed

· NO – Normally open

| Danger! An external voltage source can be present on the wires to be connected to the relay clamps!

An auxiliary source (e.g., ripple control, UPS, generator, PV, emergency PSU) can supply voltage even if all the main counters are open/disconnected.

Before any handling verify that there is no voltage on any wires you handle.

---|---
Step 9| Close the relay cover. Put back the protective covers for the phase and neutral terminals ( IMAGE 8 ). Ensure the orientation of the covers ( IM- AGE 9 ).
Step 10| Put back the cover panel of the home distribution box to cover the elec- trical contacts. Be sure that no electrical contact can be touched.
Step 11| Power on the system by enabling power in the electrical panel.
Step 12| To finalize the installation , all tiko devices must be configured using the

installation app.

Operation

Device Operation
The operation of the K-Box is subject to the control of the full system and operated by the Data Center through the Gateway (M-Box). No user interaction is required.
On the front, there are two buttons, offering the following functionalities:

Service – not used anymore (no function assigned)
Heating Powered
- Single Press – change relay state. If the K-Box is connected to the backend, the relay might switch back as it is overwritten by the backend settings.
- Long press (10 s) – reset device.

LED Explanation
The D-Box features one LED in the middle of the device. It is only visible when lit.

In normal operation:
LED| Status| Notes
---|---|---
Off| Operational|
Blinking yellow, 2x per second| No PLC connectivity|
Blinking yellow, 1x per second| No connection to cloud/back- end|
Red| Power-on self-test failure.| For example, when wrongly wired
Blinking red| Emergency mode| Device is damaged or has hardware mal- function. The relay is closed so that the heater can be operated manually.
In firmware upgrade mode:
LED| Status| Notes
---|---|---
Blinks yel-

low/green 2x

per second

| Device running firmware upgrade|

If the button is pressed for one second, the LED displays the quality of the com-munication to the Gateway:
LED| Status| Notes
---|---|---
Steady Red| No connectivity| Since the last start of the device, it did not receive any data.
Blinking yellow, 4x per second| No communication for 2 minutes| At least one data packet was received, but for 2 minutes the device did not receive

any signal.

Steady Green| The communication is in the optimal state|

In Heater Test mode: see section Heater Test.

Heater Test

A long press of the button (more than 5 seconds) triggers a test of the electrical heater. With this, the D-Box can check if the wiring is correct. The test is executed locally on the D-Box and does not need any connectivity to the Gateway or the back-end. The test is available for both Fil Pilote and Relay mode. To choose the correct mode, the D-Box must have been properly configured in the install app.
The test consists of the following steps:

Switch the heater ON.
Wait for it to consume a certain amount of energy during a certain time.
Switch the heater OFF.
Ensure if the heater stops consuming.
Repetition of steps 1 to 4.
Display of the result:
LED| Status
---|---
Off| Test not running or stopped.
Blinking Green| Test in progress.
Steady Green| Test completed successfully.
Steady Red| The test failed during a switch.
Blinking Red| The test failed while trying to keep the heater on or off.
Now the button must be pressed again to exit from the test.

If step 7 – exit the test by pressing again the button – is forgotten, the LED will continue to display the result status. In case this step was for-gotten during the installation process, just press the button again. The test relies on a proper configuration of the Relay vs. Fil Pilote mode of the D-Box. For example, if the Heater features Fil Pilote, but the D-Box is set to Relay Mode, the test will complete successfully (but maybe the heater will beep or switch on and off). The other way around the test will fail.

Uninstalling

External voltage risk! An external voltage source can be connected to the K-Box relay terminals. Even if all the main counters are open/disconnected, there could still be high voltage on the relay terminal clamps coming from an auxiliary source (e.g., ripple control, UPS, generator, PV, emergency PSU). Before any handling verify that there is no voltage source wired to the K-Box.

Step 1	Remove power from the electrical panel.
Step 2	Remove power from any auxiliary circuit (e.g., ripple control, UPS,

gen- erator, PV, emergency PSU).
Step 3| Verify that there is no tension on the K-Box clamps.
Step 4| Remove the cover panel. Unwire and remove the device.
Step 5| Put the cover panel back. Ensure that no electrical contact can be touched.
Step 6| Power on the system.
Step 7| If the device remains property of tiko Energy Solutions AG or its authorized reseller, it must be returned. Otherwise, the ultimate disposal of a device shall be handled according to national laws and regulations.
