A Honeywell Radio Frequency (RF) programmable thermostat is a thermostat that controls your heating system so that you can have comfortable temperatures when you are at home and energy savings when you are out. With RF communication there is no need to provide a wired connection between thermostat and boiler. The CM61NG can therefore be installed without disrupting your room decor. These instructions explain how to program and operate your CM61NG to get the most comfort at the least cost.
Instead of switching on the heating at the set time every day, the CM61NG will delay the start time to the latest possible moment, so that unnecessary heating is avoided. All you have to do is set the time when you want comfort temperature and the CM61NG will then decide when to turn the heating on, thereby ensuring your comfort.
The diagram below details the key button functions and display information.
The time can be set with the CM61NG in the AUTO, MAN or OFF operating modes. Press + or - until the correct time is displayed. Each button press will change the time by one minute. Holding the button down for a few seconds will change the time slowly at first, then quickly. Make sure AM or PM is correct.
Press the AUTO button.
The CM61NG will now control your heating using the built-in temperature program:-
Daily | ||||||
Program Time Temperature | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
06:30 | 08:00 | 12:00 | 2:00 | 6:00 | 10:30 | |
21°C | 18°C | 21°C | 18°C | 21°C | 16°C |
The built-in program uses 6 temperature change times as indicated by the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 on the display. Unwanted change times can be deleted by holding the appropriate PROG buttons (2, 3, 4, 5 or 6) down for a few seconds. The change time will be removed and the display will show dashes instead of a time / temperature display.
Deleted temperature change times can be brought back by again pressing the appropriate program button (2, 3, 4, 5 or 6) for a few seconds.
When the CM61NG is in AUTO position (display will show "AUTO") the temperature can be adjusted temporarily by pressing TEMP or . The temperature will return to the program at the next temperature change time.
In normal operation the temperature displayed is the actual room temperature. To check the programmed temperature press and the display will show the programmed temperature with the two small arrows.
To operate as a simple thermostat with one temperature throughout the day, press MAN. Adjust the manual temperature by pressing TEMP or . The manual temperature can be set anywhere from 5°C to 30°C in 0.5°C steps.
The unit will control to the new temperature for the set number of days holiday. At midnight the holiday counter will be reduced by one until the selected number of days have passed. The unit will then return to normal control as set by the MAN or AUTO position.
To cancel the HOLIDAY setting, press the button a second time.
To switch the boiler ON or OFF:
Press the OFF button. The unit will now control at 5°C.
Your CM61NG has built-in electronics that constantly monitor the battery power level. With no accessory fitted the batteries should last about 2 years. When the batteries need replacing, a flashing symbol will be displayed.
To change the batteries:
RESPECT YOUR ENVIRONMENT!
Take care to dispose of used batteries carefully.
The CM61NG has a permanent memory to keep your program settings. While you change the batteries, you should never need to reprogram. However, if you take more than one minute to change them, you may need to correct the time by pressing + or -.
Yes. Please refer to your installer for more information.
After programming is finished always replace the CM61NG back on the wall bracket.
The relay box will normally be found mounted close to the boiler.
The green LED indicates normal operation of the radio frequency system. When the green LED is ON the boiler is also ON. When the LED is OFF the boiler is OFF.
You should use the push button to control your boiler only when the RF communication is lost (see the CM61NG Trouble-Shooting Guide).
Part No. Q6667B1015
The ATS module picks up a daily time signal from a transmitter in Central Europe and corrects the time on the CM61NG display. So:
* Not available in all Geographic Regions depending on transmitter range and home location.
Part No. F42010248-002
If you do not want to mount the room unit on the wall you can use optional table stand, ask you installer for details
*Note: The room unit must be located in a location where reliable communication was proven. Advise your installer where you would like to position the room unit and they will check if the RF communication is reliable in the selected location(s)
See the troubleshooting guide below. If you need assistance after this call your installer.
Symptom | Possible Cause | Remedy |
Blank display | No batteries | Check that the batteries are in the battery compartment and that the paper tab has been pulled out |
Wrong battery orientation | Check that the batteries have been installed in the correct orientation | |
Exhausted batteries | Replace batteries | |
Display shows flashing battery symbol | Improper battery compartment insertion | Remove battery compartment and re-insert |
Batteries need replacing | Change batteries as described previously | |
Display shows 'flame' symbol but heating does not switch on | The heating is not required at this moment | The heat demand is sent to the relay box as a value between 0-100%. The relay box will adjust the boiler on time to meet this requirement. That is why the heating will be off sometimes even if the 'flame' symbol is displayed. To check if RF system is communicating properly press the TEMPerature UP button to increase the set temperature a few degrees above the current temperature. The heating should come on after a few seconds |
Display works but heating does not switch on (HC60NG LEDs are off or green one is on) | Boiler switched off | Switch the boiler on |
Wrong electrical connection | Call electrical installer to check the boiler and relay box power supply as well as the connection between the boiler and the relay box | |
HC60NG red LED is constantly on or flashing | RF communication lost due to the wrong location of the room unit | Hook the room unit back on the wall bracket or replace the room unit on the table stand to the position where RF communication was reliable. |
RF communication fault | Call installer NOTE: You can control the boiler manually when the RF communication is lost: | |
Heating switches on or off too slowly or too quickly | CM61NG not set correctly for your system | Call installer |
Temperature swings between too hot and too cold | CM61NG not set correctly for your system | Call installer |
Display show spanner symbol | Fault in the CM61NG | Remove the battery compartment and re-insert it. If the 'spanner' symbol does not clear itself in a few minutes call the installer |
