Installation

3.1 Location of the thermostat

iSense OpenTherm and iSense RF
The iSense is set to room control by default, which means
that the inside temperature is used to control the central
heating. That is why it is best to locate the iSense on an
internal wall in the room in which you spend the most time,
such as the living room.
Do not locate the controller too close to heat sources (fireplace,
radiator, lamp, candles, direct sunlight etc.), or in places where
it may be draughty.
For iSense RF only
The following also apply for the iSense RF:
• Position the iSense at least 1 metre from equipment with
electromagnetic emissions such as Washing machines,
Tumble driers, wireless telephones, TVs, computers, micro-
wave ovens, etc.
• Position the iSense so that it has good reception. Take
account of the fact that objects containing metal will affect
the reception. These include steel-reinforced concrete, mir-
rors and windows with a metal coating, insulating fi lms etc.

The range of the iSense RF in buildings is generally 30 metres
Note!
This value is purely an indication. The actual range of the RF
signal depends strongly on the local environment. Remember
that the number of walls and ceilings (metal or otherwise) can
have a (considerable) impact on reception. Other objects that
contain metal may also impact reception. These include mirrors
and windows with a metal coating, insulating films etc.
The signal strength can be viewed via Menu > Information.

3.2 Installation and connection

The following must be done before you install and connect the
iSense:
• Adjust the boiler so that it can be connected to an
OpenTherm thermostat. Consult the boiler documentation
for this process.
• Turn off the boiler.
Now proceed as follows:
1. Open the housing by pulling the front and the base plate
T001046-C
apart.
