RS-485 interface 

The following options are available via the interface: 

 

Data polling by the controller. 

  

Pressure 

  

Pump operating states. 

 

Cumulated quantity of the "FQIRA+" contact water meter. 

  

All messages, see chapter 9.3 "Messages" on page 11 . 

 

All entries in the fault memory. 

 

Communication with control centres. 

 

Communication with other equipment. 

 



Note! 
If required, please request the RS-485 interface protocol from the Reflex 
Customer Service. 

 

Connection details. 

 

Accessory information and data. 

 
6.5.2.1

 

Connecting the RS-485 interface 

Connect the interface as follows: 
1. 

For connecting the interface use only a cable with these properties: 

  

LJYCY (TP), 4 × 2  × 0.8, maximum overall bus length 1000 m. 

2. 

Use a shielded cable to connect the interface to terminals 29, 30, 31 of the 
main board in the control cabinet. 

  

For connecting the interface, see chapter 6.5 "Electrical connection" 
on page 7 . 

3. 

When using the device with a control centre not supporting an RS-485 
interface (RS-232, for example), you must use a corresponding adapter.

Installation and commissioning certificate  



Note! 
The installation and commissioning certificate can be found at the end 
of the operating manual.

Commissioning 



Note! 
Confirm that installation and start-up have been carried out correctly 
using the installation and commissioning certificate. This action is a 
prerequisite for the making of warranty claims. 

  

Have the Reflex Customer Service carry out commissioning and 
the annual maintenance. 

 

7.1

 

Requirements for initial commissioning  

The device will be ready for initial commissioning when the tasks described in 
the "Installation" chapter have been completed. Note the following information 
on initial commissioning: 

 

The device is installed. 

 

The water connections to the system circuit are established. 

 

The device shut-off valves are closed. 

  

Shut-off valve from the "DC" make-up line to the system circuit. 

  

Shut-off valve of the "WC" make-up line to the fresh water main. 

 

"PIS" pressure monitoring is ready. 

 

The electrical connection has been created according to applicable 
national and local regulations. 

 

Establish a 230 V power supply by plugging the power plug into a corresponding 
outlet. The controller is in Stop mode. 
 

7.2

 

Determining the P

0

 minimum operating pressure for the 

controller 

The "P

0

" minimum working pressure for the device is used in system circuits with 

a diaphragm expansion vessel. 
Calculate the "P

0

" minimum working pressure for the device: 

 

 

 

The device is installed at the same level (h

st

 = 0) as the diaphragm 

expansion vessel: 
P

0

 = p0 

 

The device is installed at a lower level than the diaphragm expansion 
vessel: 
P

0

 = p0 + h

st

 / 10 

 

The device is installed at a higher level than the diaphragm expansion 
vessel: 
P

0

 = p0 - h

st

 / 10 

 

P

0

 

Minimum working pressure in bar 

p0  Initial pressure, diaphragm expansion vessel, in bar 
h

st

  Static elevation in m 

 



Note! 
Calculate the filling pressure for the make-up with mains water into the 
system circuit as follows: 

Filling pressure ≥ P

0

 + 0.3 bar 

 



Note! 
During planning, take into account that the working range of the 
device must be between the "PA" initial pressure and the "PE" final 
pressure in the pressurisation working range. 

 

7.3

 

Filling the device with water 

 

 
Proceed as follows: 
1. 

Connect the "BV" shut-off device (1) to the system circuit. 

2. 

Carefully open the shut-off device in the "WC" mains water line. 

 

7.4

 

Parametrising the controller in the Customer menu 

Use the Customer menu to display or correct system-specific values. In the 
course of commissioning, the factory settings must be adjusted for the system-
specific conditions. 

  

For adjusting the default settings, see chapter 9.2 "Configuring settings in 
the controller" on
 page 10 . 

  

For information about controller operation, see chapter 9.1 "Operator 
panel" on
 page 10 . 

 

7.5

 

Function test 

Perform a function test for the "WV" make-up valve. 

 

Set the device controller to manual mode, see chapter 8.1.2 "Manual 
mode" on
 page 9 . In manual mode, you can manually open and close the 
"WV" make-up valve. 

 

Proceed as follows: 
1. 

Press "Manual". 

 

"Levelcontrol" mode: "WV" flashes on the 
display. 

 

"Magcontrol" mode: Use the arrow keys 
to select "WV". "WV" flashes on the 
display. 

 

 

 

2.0 bar

 

WV!

 

Filling

 

 

 

2. 

Press "OK". 

 

The make-up valve opens. The displays shows "WV!". 

 

The water pressure displayed rises to the water pressure in the mains 
water pipe. 

  

The make-up is completed when the display value no longer 
increases. The make-up valve automatically closes after 10 s. 

3. 

Press "OK". 

 

The make-up valve closes. The displays shows "WV". 

 

The function test of the "WV" make-up valve is completed.
