RF (wireless communication)
RF components have a maximum free-field range of 350 metres� This dis-
tance will be much less in a building because of obstacles� Therefore, you will
need to take objects such as walls, concrete and metal into account� All slave
components (except those which are battery powered) also act as repeaters�
Signals from components that are unable to make a (strong) connection with
the master component are forwarded automatically via no more than one other
non-battery-powered component (= hop)� Please refer to information sheet
at www�duco�eu for further information�

Maximum distance
350 m, free field (less
through obstacles)
Maximum number

Wired (cabled communication)
Wired components can be daisy-chained (= recommended)� This means that a
separate cable will not be required for each component� A single central power
supply can be used�
The cable required is a 5 x 0�75 mm² data cable� We strongly advise using a
shielded cable� This is to prevent any interference that may affect the data com-
munication� Any Tronic window ventilators will be supplied with a 5 x 0�25 mm²
cable which can be connected via a splicing terminal block�

Control valves
The control valves, whether or not they are fitted with a sensor for measuring CO or humidity, can be built into the DucoBox Focus�
Together with the fan, they ensure the correct exhaust air flow rate in the right room�
A control valve with combined CO
2
and RH measurement can only be used with a DucoBox Focus with a software
version of 11.2 or higher.
A DucoBox Focus can contain up to a maximum of 7 control valves (= one per intake duct)� This can be expanded to a maximum of
11 control valves by using the ‘Control Valve Manifold’ (item 0000-4454)�
A control valve must always be provided for each ventilation duct connected!

Mounting the control valves
Slide the control valve into the locations
provided in the DucoBox Focus� Connect
the ‘VALVE’ connector on the DucoBox
to IN on the control valve� If applicable,
connect OUT on the valve to IN on another
control valve to be added� At least one
valve must be connected to the DucoBox at
any time�

and the valves (A/B/C/D/E/F/G) to give
these the same letter, so that the valves
always remain in the same position�
