Choosing A Position In The Room; Range Test; Fixing The Rfc To The Wall - Radiwarm 3100 Installation & Operating Instructions Manual

5.3

Choosing a position in the room.

The RFC should be positioned in a place where its temperature will not be
changed by local events. Avoid:
● Draughty places near windows, doors and vents.
● Places near the radiator or any other heat sources in the room.
● Places in direct sunlight.
● Places where it may get wet.
● Places where, for example, it could be hit by a door.
5.4

Range Test.

Having connected your radiator and chosen a position for the RFC you can
test the wireless connection.
In the unlikely event that the radiator does not respond, check that you have
connected to the radiator. If it still does not work try a different location.
Poor reception can be because :
● The RFC is too far from the radiator.
● There are metal objects (including parts of the building) obstructing
the signal path. Metal objects can also cause reflections that can
interfere with signal strength.
● There are other 433Hz transmissions nearby. This should not be a
problem as all such devices may transmit occasionally and for short
periods of time.
● The range test lasts for 10 minutes or until you press CLEAR.
5.5

Fixing the RFC to the Wall.

Remove the wall plate from the rear of the RFC and mark through the screw
holes on the rear (60 mm centres). Drill and plug the wall to accept No. 6 or
No. 8 screws and mount the wall plate. Clip the RFC back onto the wall
plate.
Clean the RFC
Clean the RFC only with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid getting moisture on
buttons or openings. Do not use sprays, liquids or abrasives; doing so may
damage the RFC.
Place or hold your RFC in position.
Press BOOST and ADVANCE together
The RFC will transmit a special test
signal every 5 seconds causing the
radiators supply light to flash twice.
