The thermostats are equipped with a fixed set of applications and can be configured using the DIP switches on the inner side of the front panel. The product has stock numbers S55770-T396, S55770-T397, and S55770-T451 for different applications.

Applications

The thermostats support the following applications:

• ON/OFF (heating or cooling)
• 3-position
• B2 heater (heating or cooling)

The output signals and diagrams vary depending on the application selected. The functional descriptions for the thermostat can be referred to the basic documentation P3174.

Mounting and installation

Mount the room thermostat on a conduit box. Do not mount on a wall in niches or between bookshelves, behind curtains, above or near heat sources, or exposed to direct solar radiation. Mount about 1.5 m above the floor.

Mounting / Dismounting

• Do not apply excessive force on screws! The deformation of the mounting frame may lead to improper connections and operation of the unit.
• Mount the room thermostat on a clean, dry indoor place without direct airflow from a heating/cooling device, and not expose to drips or splashes water.
• In case of limited space in the conduit box, use the mounting spacer ARG70.3 to increase the headroom by 10mm.
• Before removing the front cover, disconnect the power supply.

Wiring

See the User Manual for the installation instructions enclosed with the thermostat.

WARNING
Wire, protect and earth in compliance with local regulations.
Risk of fire and injury due to short-circuits!

• Adapt the line diameters as per local regulations to the rated value of the installed overcurrent protection device.
• The AC 230 V mains supply line must have an external circuit breaker with a rated current of no more than 10 A.
• The maximum current loading (including fan and valves) is 10 A.
• Use only valve actuators rated for AC 230 V.
• Disconnect from supply before removing the unit from its mounting plate.
• Do not connect more than one fan coil unit to the Qs output of the thermostat.
• Do not connect terminal Y1 or Y2 to either L or N.
  • Do not use terminal Y1 or Y2 as AC 230 V power supply.
  • Use cables with min 230 V insulation for both SELV inputs X1-M / X2-M since the conduit box carries AC 230 V mains voltage.
  • Several switches (e.g. window contact) may be connected in parallel for both inputs X1-M / X2-M. However, overall maximum contact sensing current for switch rating must be considered.

Commissioning notes

Before power up
Set DIP switches to select the desired application before power up:

Commissioning method	DIP switches	LCD display	Applications
Local setup		APP 2P	2-pipe
		APP 2PEH	2-pipe with electric heater
		APP 4P	4-pipe
		APP 2P3P	2-pipe with 3-position output

After DIP switch setting, complete the installation and power up the thermostat.

Notes:
Other DIP switch position will have no effect, i.e. NONE will be shown on LCD display when the unit is powered up if selected . As soon as the application is changed, the thermostat reloads the factory setting for all control parameters.

Wizard

After DIP switches are selected and the thermostat is powered up, the wizard function guides users to configure the basic parameters for normal operation according to the table below.

• Touch to advance/return to any parameter;
• Touch + / – to change value.

If more details are required about parameters, refer to basic documentation P3174.

Reset

To re-load the factory settings for all parameters, set the parameter P71 to ON.
Restart the thermostat after reset. All LCD segments flash, indicating that the reset is correct.
3 seconds later, the thermostat is ready for commissioning by qualified HVAC staff.

Compressor-based application

• When the thermostat is used with a compressor, adjust the minimum output ontime (parameter P48) and off-time (parameter P49) for Y1 / Y2 to avoid damaging the compressor or shortening its life due to frequent switching.

Calibrate sensor

• Recalibrate the temperature sensor if the room temperature displayed on the thermostat does not match the room temperature measured (after min. 1 hour of operation). To do this, change parameter P05.

Setpoint and range limitation

• We recommend to review the setpoints and setpoint ranges (parameters P08…P12) and change them as needed to achieve maximum comfort and save energy.

Notes:
The functional descriptions for the thermostat can be referred to basic documentation (P3174).

Operation

Room temperature out of range
When the room temperature is out of the measuring range (that is, above 49 °C or below 0 °C), – – – will be displayed.
In addition, the heating output is activated if the current setpoint is not set to “OFF”, the thermostat is in heating mode and the temperature is below 0 °C.
For all other cases, no output is activated.
The thermostat resumes Comfort mode after the temperature returns to the measuring range.

The following pages can be displayed by touching the icon, depending on priority: alarm/service reminder, manual H/C changeover, basic Information about room.

Alarm/Service reminder

If any alarm is displayed ( ), touch the icon to check the alarm or service reminder.
If there is more than one alarm, use to browse through all active alarms.

The following table describes the detail information for all alarms and services

Heating/cooling manual changeover

If manual heating/cooling changeover is set using P01 = 2, touch the icon once or twice (depending on the alarms) to select heating or cooling mode.
The selected control sequence will start in three seconds.
