Danfoss Link™ CC - Configuration
Create all rooms in desired order before further configuration and adding of devices.
It is recommended to make a plan for the entire installation, which shows the individual placement and type
of all units in relation to room disposition. On this basis, the priority order and configuration of all devices
can be determined.
Remove the front cover and press the Set-Up pin for 3 seconds.
1. Select Rooms and Devices.
When using a wireless transmission technology, several issues have to be taken in consideration, to ensure
the best performance:
• A maximum distance of 30 m between devices in free space must not be exceeded.
• Receiving devices should be placed on opposite or next wall as the transmitter.
• All metallic parts in the building construction can reduce communication signals.
• Reinforced concrete walls and floors dampen the signal strength significantly, but almost all types of
construction materials reduce the signal more or less.
• Also corners which is a result of the design of the building, can be a hinder for the further communication
of signals, due to either a longer distance or missing reflecting opportunities.
Many mains powered devices work automatically as repeaters without being installed as a dedicated
repeater - see manual.
If necessary, devices can be configured as service device to work as dedicated repeaters - see Configura-
tion 7: Adding service devices.

Max. 3 repeaters can be used between CC and the receiving device.
Note! Only devices with main power supply, and planned as repeaters (both normal and dedicated)
must always be configured first.
When devices are configured as repeaters, link test and network test is to be carried out to ensure the signal
quality.
