Heater Test
A long press of the button (more than 5 seconds) triggers a test of the electrical heater.
With this, the D-Box can check if the wiring is correct. The test is executed locally on the
D-Box and does not need any connectivity to the
Gateway
or the back-end.
The test is available for both Fil Pilote and Relay mode. To choose the correct mode, the
D-Box must have been properly configured in the install app.
The test consists of the following steps:
1.
Switch the heater ON.
2.
Wait for it to consume a certain amount of energy during a certain time.
3.
Switch the heater OFF.
4.
Ensure if the heater stops consuming.
5.
Repetition of steps 1 to 4.
6.

7.
Now the button must be pressed again to exit from the test.
If step 7
–
exit the test by pressing again the button
–
is forgotten, the
LED will continue to display the result status. In case this step was for-
gotten during the installation process, just press the button again.
The test relies on a proper configuration of the Relay vs. Fil Pilote
mode of the D-Box. For example, if the Heater features Fil Pilote, but
the D-Box is set to Relay Mode, the test will complete successfully
(but maybe the heater will beep or switch on and off). The other way
around the test will fail.
