•
Install in the living area:
It is important that the Thermostat is placed in a position that will provide the most
accurate reading of the temperature, i.e. in the area most often used for family living.
•
Attach on an internal wall:
The temperature difference on an external wall can also affect it, so always
mount it on an internal wall. Keep the hole in the wall for the wiring as small as possible to prevent draught
from within the wall cavity affecting the temperature setting.
•
Get the height right:
The Thermostat should be approximately 1500mm above the floor level.
•
Avoid hot spots:
Keep it as far away as possible from warm air outlets, radiation from the sun, fireplaces, radio
and television sets or warm pipes and duct running in the wall behind it.
•
Avoid cold spots:
Keep it as far away as possible from draughts caused by doorways, stairwells, windows or
return air inlets.
•
Avoid dead spots:
Keep it away from areas of less than normal air circulation e.g. behind doors, in alcoves
or corners.
•
Interference from other electrical connections:
Ensure the Thermostat and wiring are kept away from
other electrical, data and antenna cables. This includes keeping the Thermostat’s wiring away from the spark
igniter loom within the heater’s cabinet.
•
Use the right cable:
Ensure the cable is 0.75mm
2
in cross section and less than 100m in length.
Note:
Do not install the wiring with the power turned on, as the fuse may blow, which would not be covered under
warranty.
Note:
Only use Brivis Thermostats, as any failure relating to a non-Brivis Thermostat will not be covered under
warranty.
13.1 Brivis Networker Installation
Brivis Networkers can be wired directly to StarPro Max/Plus heaters or wired to a
current Classic heater through a Brivis 519 Classic Interface.
Refer to Brivis Networker Advanced Programming manual for additional programming
information not provided in this manual.
Wiring Connection at Brivis Networker
The Brivis Networker backing plate has 4 terminal points for the connection of control wires. When connecting, use
only the two top terminals marked TW1 and TW2 or the two bottom terminals also marked TW1 and TW2. Never
use a combination of terminals when connecting to a single appliance. For example, a Brivis Networker operating a
Brivis cooler and a Brivis heater would have the two bottom terminals connected to the heater and the two top
terminals connected to the cooler.
Note:
When there is more than one Brivis appliance connected to a Brivis Networker or multiple Brivis Networkers
on a system, always ensure that the TW1 and TW2 polarity is correct at both ends of the wire cable.
Wiring a Brivis Networker to a StarPro Max/Plus & B-Max
• Run a twin wire cable (i.e. figure 8 cable - 0.75mm
2
) from the heater to the Brivis Networker.
• Remove the backing plate from the Brivis Networker by unclipping it at the sides.
• Draw the wires from the wall cavity and feed them through the opening in the backing plate.
• Connect the cable to the terminal connections on the backing plate before mounting it on the wall and re-
assembling the Brivis Networker.
• Connect the other end of the cable to the terminals marked TW1 and TW2 in the heater’s electronic control
module.
Note:
If connecting multiple heaters see “Setting up Multiple Heaters on the Brivis Networker” on page 17.

Wiring the Brivis Networker to a Classic Heater
The Brivis Networker can be used with Classic heaters as a Thermostat option, but requires the fitment of a Brivis 519
Classic Interface before this is possible. Please follow the installation instructions supplied with a Brivis 519 Classic
Interface.
