1.1 Description Wireless Controller
Intended and unintended use
This manual is about the Wireless Controller (See A in image below).
The Wireless Controller should only be used in combination with products that have been approved by Brink Climate Systems B.V.
The Wireless Controller can only be used with a HRU appliance which is equipped with a USB connection!
The Wireless Controller is a wireless remote control to operate your ventilation system. This remote control also displays when the filter(s) needs to be replaced/ cleaned or when the ventilation system is malfunctioning.
Brink supplies a range of wireless remote controls/sensors that make contact with a heat recovery unit by means of a USB transceiver. This range consists of the 5 following types of wireless controls/sensors:BRINK 616840 Wireless
Controller - fig

A. Wireless Controller
B. Wireless controller with build-in CO2-sensor
C. Wireless Controller with build-in humidity sensor
D. Wireless CO2-sensor
E. Wireless Humidity – sensor
F. USB transceiver
G. Appliance with USB connection (for example HRU appliance type Flair)

The connected ventilation unit is operated by pressing one of the buttons on the Wireless Controller with your finger.
For explanation of the buttons of the Wireless Controller see ® Overview operational controls page 6.
The Wireless Controller must always be used with a transceiver on the HRU appliance; a combination of multiple remote controllers on 1 USB transceiver is possible.
In total, a maximum combination of 12 controllers /sensors can be connected to 1 transceiver (Max. 4 controllers / max. 4 CO2-sensors and max 4 humidity sensors).
Note: A controller with a build in CO2-sensor is seen as an CO2-sensor and a controller with a build-in humidity sensor will be seen as an humidity sensor.
If multiple controllers /sensors are used, the controller / sensor that requests the highest ventilation level always has priority.

Boost function ( ):
The boost function can be deactivated at any time by pressing another button of the Wireless Controller. When the boost button is pressed again during use of the boost  function, the timer is reset and the connected ventilation device will run on ventilation level 3 again for 30 minutes. For position “Boost button” see ® Overview operational controls page 6.
The air flow quantities associated with the ventilation settings must always be set on the connected appliance and cannot be adjusted on the Wireless Controller. For  ventilation settings , see the installation manual of the relevant connected HRU appliance.

1.2 Delivery content

If there is no response to the operation of the buttons and the LED no longer lights up if buttons are operated, the battery voltage is too low.
(Not applicable if the optional 230 volt power supply interface is used.)
Replace battery with correct type CR2032.MRF battery manufacturer Renata (or Panasonic CR-2032/BS ).
Pay attention to the position of the battery! The text marked “+” must always be legible after inserting the battery.
For replacing battery take Wireless Controller from the wall bracket (see ® Remove Wireless Controller from wall bracket page 9).
