    I. SAFETY Roth Softline Control system must always be installed by a qualified person. The controller must always be mounted on a wall or in a cabinet in a secure way. WARNING Risk of fatal electric shock from touching live connections. Before working on the controller switch off the power supply and prevent it from being accidentally switched on.
  • Page 4: First Start-Up

    Follow these steps when starting the device for the first time to ensure its failure-free operation: Step 1. Connect Roth Softline Controller – master, with all the devices to be controlled In order to connect the cables, remove the controller cover and connect the cables as indicated on connector labels and diagrams below: ›...
  • Page 5 If required up to 4 actuators can be connected to the same output/zone (32 actuators in total on the controller) Meaning: An output with 2, 3 or 4 terminals can all be connected with up to 4 actuators. Step 2. Switch on the power supply and set your language Steg 2.
  • Page 6 Step 5. Configure the settings for the temperature sensors and the room regulators To enable the Roth controller - master to control a given zone, it is necessary to provide it with current temperature value. The easiest way is to use a room thermostat, where the user will be able to change the pre-set temperature value directly on the thermostat.

    8. HEATING – COOLING The system works in cooling mode with monitoring of the humidity in the rooms, therefore thermostats or sensors with a built-in humidity sensor must be used. If the humidity (%) in the rooms exceeds the set global maximum value, the cooling to the respective room/zone will be stopped (the valve closes).
  • Page 24 Setting of max. humidity When using thermostats and/or sensors with build in humidity sensors in each room, it is possible to protect the floor construction against mois- ture generation during cooling in each single room. To do this it is necessary to specify a maximum value for the humidity. This maximum value applies to the entire plant (globally). In order to set the value correctly, it is important to relate to the actual switch over room temperature and the preset minimum flow temperature (set on the heat pump or cooling device), respectively.
