  Connect the TK contacts for monitoring of the thermal motor protection to 
the motor TK terminals.

A safety isolator / disconnect switch should be installed on the mains electricity 
side of all motor drives.

Make sure the connections are correct before you power the unit.

ATTENTION

5. 

Close the cover and secure it with the screws.

6. 

Tighten the cable glands. 

7. 

Switch on the mains supply. 

8. 

 Customise the factory settings to the desired ones via the 3SModbus software 

or Sensistant. For the default factory setting, see the  

Modbus register map.

 The 

desired fan speed can be adjusted via Modbus holding register 14.

For the complete Modbus register data, refer to the product Modbus Register Map, 
which is a separate document attached to the article code on the website and 
contains the registers list. 

NOTE

Optional settings

1. 

 In automatic mode, a Sentera potentiometer with Modbus RTU communication 
can be connected to RTVS1. To obtain demand based fan speed control, RTVS1 
can be combined with a Sentera HVAC sensor. The combination of RTVS1 
with a Sentera HVAC transmitter allows you to control fan speed in function 
of temperature, relative humidity, carbon dioxide, air quality (TVOC) or carbon 
monoxide. The controlled parameter can be selected in RTVS1 Modbus holding 
register 20. 

Crimp the RJ45 cable for the Modbus Master connector and plug it into the 
socket. It is used to connect RTVS1 to a Sentera transmitter, intelligent sensor 
or sensor controller. Consult our website for compatible devices
