Device operation

The device can be configured to operate as a stand-alone 

device (local control) or slave device (control via bus).
Using as a stand-alone device
The control is carried out locally with the two rockers on 

the front side of the device. During the configuration it is 

possible to enable selectively the available functions. De-

pending on the configuration done with ETS, it is possible 

to:
•  change temporarily the setpoint of the current operating 

mode; 

• 

display an information sequence; 

• 

control a ventilation terminal device; 

•  change the setpoint values for the operating modes 

comfort, standby and economy;

• 

adjust the intensity of the backlight;

• 

display the physical address and the firmware release 

of the device;

•  change the heating/cooling mode (seasonal changeo-

ver).

Using as a slave device
The control is carried out remotely by another KNX de-

vice acting as a supervisor that sends to the thermostat 

via bus the operational parameters: e.g. setpoint values, 

operating modes or seasonal modes. The possibility of 

changing locally the operational conditions, received via 

bus by the master device, are limited in comparison to 

the use as a stand-alone device and are indicated on the 

display by the symbol M (Manual). In this case, the ope-

rating parameters of the room temperature controller can 

be changed centrally at the master device.

The thermostat has an LC-

ly the left half of the front 

side. Depending on the in-

formation to be displayed, 

a combination of digits and 

symbols can be switched 

on. The light intensity emit-

ted from the display can be 

set  during  the  configuring 

with ETS and later adjusted 

manually to the light condi-

tions of the room.

Seasonal operating modes

The device allows the control of the room temperature for 

both modes of operation of the thermal system: heating 

and cooling. If a 4-pipe hydraulic distribution is present, 

the device can be configured so that the switching betwe

-

en heating and cooling modes is done automatically for 

the same room and in the same day, if the central system 

provides simultaneously warm and cold conveying fluids. 

The active mode of the system is displayed by an appro-

priate symbol.

Rockers

The symbols on the rockers are predefined and cannot be 

modified. The areas marked by the s (plus) and -

fan speed or to select a setting, while those marked by the

lation control, the seasonal changeover (heating/cooling) 

or the access and confirmation a setting change.
