FAQs

How can I adjust the pre-set programs?

To adjust the pre-set programs, navigate to the settings menu and select the program you want to modify. Follow the on-screen instructions to change the timings and temperatures accordingly.

What should I do if the device stops accepting inputs?

If the device stops accepting inputs, check if the access protection feature is enabled. Disable it if necessary to resume normal operation.

How do I know if the temperature range is limited?

If you notice a limited temperature range, it might be due to the temperature limit setting. Access the settings menu to adjust the temperature limits as needed.

Overview

The programmable room temperature controller UTE 4800 allows programming switching events (up to 9) and temperatures according to personal needs. After installation, the device auto-matically shows the time of day and the room temperature. In AUTO mode, the Heater (Cooler) will be automatically activated according to the programmed time and temperature. Program 1 is the default pre-set program (see 8.). The room temperature will be controlled according to the temperature measured by the internal or remote sensor. The Heater will be switched on when the temperature drops below the current set point.

Installation

Caution!

This device must be installed by a qualified electrician, according to the wiring diagram on the device, and in compliance with all applicable safety regulations.
Appropriate installation measures must be taken to achieve the requirements of protection class II.
This device is used to control the temperature only in dry rooms, under normal environmental conditions. This electronic device conforms to EN 60730, It is an “independently mounted control” and works according to operating principle 1C.

Fitting

in a conduit box Ø 60 mm
remove the display unit
remove the frame*
Mount it following the reverse procedure

Caution!
Mounting in plastic wall boxes only

Electric connection
Caution: disconnect the electric circuit from the supply

Connecting according to the Wiring Diagram
For flexible or solid wires 1 – 2,5mm2

Connecting the remote sensor F 193 720 or F190 021 (optional)

To measure the room temperature, instead of the internal sensor an external one can be used.
Remote or internal sensor selection can be made via menu item H1.
Lay the sensor inside a protective tube (simplifies replacement). The sensor lead can be extended up to 50 m by using a cable and connections suitable for 230 V. Avoid laying sensor cable alongside power cables, for example inside a conduit.

Pre-set programs

There are 3 pre-set time/temperature programs in the controller. Pre-set program 1 (as shown below) is the default. Therefore, if pre-set program 1 is the best program to suit the application, there will be no need to change the time/temperature settings on the device.

To select another program see 9. G1.

Notes for Programming

Activated settings terminate automatically 3 Min after the last key press, without saving. They return to the mode that was active before entering the settings, e.g. AUTO, MAN, etc.
Entering a Code: change value with the + – key then press OK
When going through User- or Installer settings the item number used in the manual will be displayed, e.g. G1 for „Program selects one“ or H2 for „Control Mode“.
There may be gaps in the sequence of menu numbers.

Troubleshooting

It is getting warm too late:
- a. Are clock and program events set correctly?
- b. Is the Optimum Start feature switched on? see H7 Did the controller have enough time (several days) to adapt to the room’s characteristics?
- c. Is an automatic change between Summer- and Winter time activated, see G5
The controller does not accept any changes
Is access protection switched on? see G6
The range of temperature settings is limited.
Are temperature limits set? See G7
The temperature display doesn‘t change.
Is a display of set temperature activated? See G10

Change INSTALLER SETTINGS

CAUTION!
These settings should only be set up by a qualified person. They can influence safety and the proper functioning of the system.

H| INSTALLER SETTINGS| Customize the controller according to application needs (by installer only)| default settings ( ) = value range
---|---|---|---
0| Code| Enter Code (= 7) to access the menus. It is valid for 1 Hour|
1| Application| This controller is suitable for the heating system mentioned in the right column. It can be selected if a remote sensor has to be used.| ROOM/NO see 1
2| Control Mode| PWM or ON/OFF can be selected. In the case of PWM, the cycle time can be set (in Minutes). Min ON/OFF time = 10% of cycle time. Use short time for fast and longer time for slow-reacting heating systems. PWM is not possible with COOLING (H4).

For ON/OFF you can select:

• Hysteresis (OFF = no temperature hysteresis, even at very low changes of temp. the relay will switch over according to the Min On/Off Time setting.)
