– the optimal location of the device can be selected during operation, – it is also advantageous when you intend to locate the thermostat in different rooms in the course of the day (e.g. in the living room during the day but in the bedroom at night).

The simultaneous use of several COMPUTHERM room thermostats and one COMPUTHERM Q4Z zone controller provides the possibility to e.g. in addition to starting the heater or cooler, a particular thermostat must also control a pump or a zone valve. In this way, it is easy to divide a heating / cooling system into zones, thanks to which the heating / cooling of each room can be controlled separately, thus greatly increasing comfort.
only heat / cool the rooms where it is required. 2. IMPORTANT WARNINGS AND SAFETY RECOMMEN- DATIONS • Before starting to use the device, please study carefully the instructions for use and follow strictly the instructions therein. • The thermostat was designed for business or household (not industrial) use, and can be used to control any electric device whose performance does not exceed 2.3 kW (loadability: max.
that this option has been chosen among settings (see Chapter 11). If you intend to use the device in an environment where power outages occur fre- quently, for safety purposes we propose you to control proper operation of the thermostat regularly. •...
• The illuminated green LED indicates that the receiver is properly powered and ready to use. • The orange LED flashes every second to indicate normal operation of the receiver. • The illuminated red LED indicates that the output of the receiver is on. 4.
(e.g. solar radiation, refrigerator or chimney). Its optimal position is at a height of 0.75-1.5 m from the floor level. The receiver of the COMPUTHERM E400RF thermostat should be installed near the boiler, in a place protected from moisture, dust, chemicals and heat.
7. CONNECTION AND INSTALLATION OF THE THER- MOSTAT AND THE RECEIVER UNIT Attention! Make sure that the COMPUTHERM E400RF thermostat and the apparatus to be controlled are de-energized while putting them into op- eration. The device should be installed and put into operation by a com- petent person! If you do not possess the necessary skills and qualifica- tions, please get in touch with an authorized service.
Figure 3 7.2. Putting the receiver unit into operation To put the receiver into operation, snap the front of the receiver unit off the back part using a flat-blade screwdriver. To remove the front panel, press the retaining claws on the top and bottom of the product. After this, the front panel of the receiver should be removed from the back panel and then the back pan- el should be fixed to the wall near the boiler with the supplied screws.
that are normaly open (Figure 4). In case the device to be controlled does not have a thermostat connection point, the power supply wire of the device to be controlled must be disconnect- ed and connected to the NO and COM connection points of the thermostat (Figure 5).
7.3. Synchronization of the thermostat and the receiver unit The two units are syncronized in the factory. The thermostat and its receiver have their own security code, which guarantees the safe operation of the devi- ce. If for some reason the thermostat and its receiver unit do not communicate with each other, or if you do not want to use the factory-paired thermostat and receiver together, make the following steps to syncronized the thermostat and the receiver unit:...
The thermostat repeats the on/off commands to the receiver unit every 5 mi- nutes. 8. SETTING UP THE INTERNET CONTROL 8.1. Installing the application The thermostat can be controlled by both a smartphone and a tablet with the help of free application COMPUTHERM E Series. Application COMPUTHERM - 17 -...
8.2. Connecting the thermostat to a Wi-Fi network To be able to control the device remotely, you need to be connected to the Internet via a Wi-Fi network. The already configured COMPUTHERM E400RF can work according to a pre-set program without the need for a permanent Internet connection.

Join the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network to be used for the thermostat. • Activate the positioning (GPS location) feature on your phone. • Start the COMPUTHERM E Series application. • Give all the requested access to the application in order for it to work properly.
8.3. Connecting the thermostat to the application • You can search for COMPUTHERM E400RF thermostats connected to the Wi-Fi network concerned by tapping the “Search” icon in the left bottom corner (i.e. this requires that the thermostat is connected to the same Wi-Fi network used for the phone).

- wait 15 seconds until the thermostat display returns to the main screen, - scroll through the settings by pressing the button. The setting options are shown in the table below: Display Function Setting Options Default Setting Detailed Description Chapter 11.1 Selecting switching sensitivity 0.1 - 1.0 °C 0.2 °C...
11.1. Selecting the switching sensitivity (DIF) It is possible to set the switching sensitivity. By setting this value, you can specify how much the appliance switches the connected device on/off below/ above the set temperature. The lower this value, the more uniform the internal temperature of the room, the greater the comfort will be.
11.3. Antifreezing (FRE) When the antifreezing function of the thermostat is activated, the thermostat will switch on its output, regardless of any other setting, when the temperature measured by the thermostat goes below 5 °C. When the temperature reaches 7 °C, normal operation of the output is restored (according to the set tempera- ture).
11.6. Restoring default setting (FAC) All settings of the thermostat, except for date and time, will be restored to fa- ctory setting. To restore factory setting, after selecting FAC setting option and tapping the button several times, switch over the appearing 08 setting to .

the output of the thermostat will switch on. If the room temperature is higher than that set on the thermostat, the output of the thermostat will switch off. The temperature to be maintained by the thermostat can be specified in 0.5 °C steps (the minimum and maximum values of the adjustable range are 5 °C and 99 °C, respectively).
