Power failure

In this case the Bridge RF stops working, because it is electrically fed by the boiler card.
The symbol (

) shown on the Remote Control display starts flashing. If the power is restored within 2 minutes, the symbol 

 

becomes fixed again and RF communication is immediately activated. Otherwise the display activates fault E94 and the symbol 

: once the power is restored, it is necessary to wait about 15 minutes. After which the symbol 

 becomes fixed and RF 

communication is available again.

Diagnostics

The remote control constantly monitors boiler status and signals any faults by activating an alarm icon and a specific fault code: 

for a description of the fault, refer to the boiler documentation.

Certain faults cause permanent shutdowns (indicated with the letter "A"): to reinstate operation just press the RESET button; 

other faults (indicated with the letter "F") cause temporary shutdowns which are automatically reset as soon as the value returns 

within the boiler's normal working range.

Room temperature probe fault

In case of a Remote Control room temperature probe, the display activates fault code E92 and the symbol 

. Heating is 

switched off.

External temperature probe fault

In Sliding Temperature operation and in case of an external temperature probe (optional) fault, the display activates fault code E93 
and the symbol 

. The adjustment temperature become fixed at the "Heating temperature adjustment" value. To eliminate the 

fault, reset the external probe or disable Sliding Temperature adjustment.

RF REMOTE CONTROL INSTALLATION

The RF Remote Control can be wall-mounted or installed on the desk-top support provided; as an 

alternative to wall-mounting, the latter allows the RF Remote Control to be placed on a support 

surface.

The RF Remote Control must be fixed to the wall at a height of approx. 1.5 m from the floor, in 

a place away from entrance doors, windows or heat sources that could affect room temperature. 

Disconnect the power to the boiler before carrying out installation. Remove the front part of the 

RF Remote Control by prising with a screwdriver at points A and B. Then fix the back of the RF 
Remote Control to the wall with the set of screws supplied. Do not insert the batteries: see Step 
1: 

Installation check

 and Step 2: 

Battery installation

.

Refit the front part of the RF Remote Control.

RF BRIDGE INSTALLATION

Disconnect the power to the boiler before carrying out installation. Remove the front part of the 

RF Bridge by prising with a screwdriver at points A and B. Then fix the back of the RF Bridge 

to the wall with the set of screws supplied, running the two wires inside the rectangular hole 

at the bottom (near the terminals): use the "OT" terminals for the electrical connection. If the 

telephone contact (voltage-free contact) has to be connected, use the "GSM" terminals. Refit the 

front part of the RF Bridge.

Use a two-core cable (2x0.75mm2, max. 2x2.5mm2), making sure its path is different from that 

of the mains power cables. The cable must not be longer than 50 m.

USER PARAMETER EDITING

Sliding Temperature - Compensation curve

By installing the external probe (optional), the control system can work with a Sliding Temperature. The external probe must be 

connected to the boiler card: refer to the relevant handbook for details. In this mode, the heating system temperature is adjusted 

according to the outside weather conditions in order to ensure high comfort and energy saving throughout the year. In particular, 

as the external temperature increases the system delivery temperature decreases according to a specific compensation curve. 

With the Sliding Temperature adjustment the temperature set through the "Heating temperature adjustment" setting becomes 

the maximum system delivery temperature. It is advisable to set a maximum value to allow system adjustment throughout its 

useful operating range. 

The compensation curve can be set from 1 to 10 according to the following graph.

the value will change rapidly.

3.  Press any other button to exit the menu.

Set the compensation curve to 0 to disable Sliding Temperature adjustment.

The system must be adjusted at the time of installation by qualified personnel. Possible adjustments can in any case be made by 

the user to improve comfort. If the room temperature is lower than the required value, it is advisable to set a higher order curve 

and vice versa. Proceed by increasing or decreasing in steps of one and check the result in the room.

To set the weekly automatic programme proceed as described in the section "Step 2. Automatic weekly programme setting", 

selecting the tap symbol at step "1" and setting EC (Economy) or CO (Comfort) at step "3" rather than a temperature value. In fact 

the remote control has a weekly time programmer based on two levels: during the COMFORT level, the boiler will maintain the set 

hot water tank temperature; during the ECO level, the boiler will not deliver domestic hot water. Refer to the boiler documentation 

for information on the type of hot water storage tank.

Important:

 Make sure the remote control is set to Winter mode with automatic operation.

Pre-Heating Function

This function is active only if the automatic heating mode has been selected.

When set to Automatic, the function anticipates the heating system start time (not before 00:00 hours on the same day) so that 

the room temperature set by the user is reached at the start of the programmed time band. The Remote Control calculates an 

initial hypothetical Pre-activation time: if the programmed room temperature is reached in a shorter time than that calculated, the 

Pre-Heating time will be decreased, and vice versa. This creates a self-learning process, for identifying the minimum necessary 

Pre-activation time.
The Remote Control also offers the possibility of setting a fixed Pre-Heating slope: In this case, the room temperature will be 

increased by 3°C an hour.

Therefore the automatic heating programme should be set according to the time when heat is required and not that when the 

heating system is to be started.

Follow the instructions given below to activate or deactivate this function.
1. Keep the button   pressed for 3 seconds. 

2. The display shows the CU parameter.

3. Press the button   3 times.
