communicated to all modules connected in the chain, so it
is not necessary to connect the inputs of several modules in
parallel. For example, it is sufficient to connect the switch to
a single module in the chain in order to change the Heating/
Cooling status of all channels in the system.
In the plug labelled "Signal IN" must be connected the cable
coming from the active antenna. The 2 channels relay module
can also be connected in a chain fashion to a 8 channels relay
module so that all the units of the chain will use the same
active antenna. In case the unit is to be connected in a chain
fashion, an interconnection cable must be plugged between
the "SIGNAL OUT" socket of a 8 channels relay module and
the "SIGNAL IN" socket of the 2 channels relay module. See
the wiring examples in Fig. 5 and Fig. 6. The module must be
the last unit in the chain since it does not have a "SIGNAL
OUT" socket connector on the board. For the same reason
several 2 channels units cannot be connected together in a
chain. Up to 10 relay modules can be connected together
in a chain.
WARNING
- Connect the device to the mains power supply via an
omnipolar switch complying with current regulations
and having a contact gap of at least 3 mm in each
pole.
- Device installation and electrical connections must
be entrusted to qualified personnel and must comply
with the laws in force.
- Before making any connections make sure the mains
power is disconnected.
CONFIGURING THE SYSTEM
The receiving system is made up of at least one "active
antenna" and one "relay module". Several relay modules can
be connected in cascade to increase the number of available
outputs. Carefully make the power connections and output
connections on the device and then, with the power supply
still disconnected, plug the cable for connecting the active
antenna to the relay module into the corresponding sockets.
In the socket "Signal IN" must be connected the cable of the
active antenna, or the output signal of a 8 channels relay
module if the system requires a chain of relay modules.
Carefully inspect each connection and then continue with the
self-learning procedure.
Self-learning procedure
- Switch on the relay module: the LEDs will blink for a few
seconds during the initialisation phase.
- Switch on a single thermostat or chronostat and set it
in the "test" mode (this means that the transmitter will
continuously emit an ON command followed by an OFF
command after three seconds).
It is advisable to keep the transmitter in the same room
as the receiver, positioned at a distance of no less than 1
metre from the active antenna.
- In order to link each individual transmitter to the desired
receiving channel it is necessary for the module to learn
the transmitter "address" code, which will be stored in a
non-volatile memory. To carry out this procedure simply
press the button corresponding to the channel you want to
"associate" with the transmitter for one second during the
"test" phase.
This will launch the "self-learning" procedure and the LED
of the channel in question will rapidly blink yellow. If you
wish to memorise the address of the same transmitter on
several channels you can press the button of the other
channels and the corresponding LEDs will blink yellow.
- As soon as a test command is received, the LED associated
with the channel will remain steadily lit yellow for 7
seconds. During this time the module will continue to receive
test commands and memorise only the signal received at
the highest strength. This means that it will memorise
the signal coming from the nearest transmitter and will
thus avoid learning addresses from any transmitters in the
