  • Page 14: Cable Selection And Network Topology

    Installation instructions Cable selection and network topology Screened twisted pairs have proven useful in CANopen networks. These are cables with twisted pairs of conductors and a shared external screen. Such cables are relatively resistant to EMC interference and can still carry 50 kbit/s for up to 1000 m. The CANopen recommendations (CiA DR 303-1) for cable cross-sections are given in the table below.
  • Page 15 Installation instructions Wiring A CAN BUS network should never have a star topology. Rather, the correct topology is a line from the first device (with terminator) to the second, third and so forth. The last bus device has the termination jumper again.
  • Page 16 Changing to cable types with different characteristic impedances is only permitted via signal separation through a CAN bus converter. However, such networks do not comply with the recommended specification.

  • Page 21: Tips On Troubleshooting

    Installation instructions Tips on troubleshooting If no voltage can be measured at the outputs even though the relay is switched on, check the fuse (3.15 A slow). The fuse protects the relay contacts from damage through short circuits or overloading. If the status LED indicators are switched off, this indicates failure of the power supply for the electronics.
  • Page 22 If the sensor is faulty, note the sensor type when replacing. While it is possible to use a different type of sensor, the parameters for that input also have to be set to suit the type of sensor used. The current standard type used by Technische Alternative is PT1000. KTY (2 kΩ) was the standard type until 2010/2011.

  • Page 38: The Most Important Functions

    Function overview, general The most important functions The most important functions for the user are: • • Heating circuit Individual room control • • Time switch DHW demand • • Calendar Solar control Various setting parameters for these functions are described in the following: Heating circuit In the heating circuit function, the set flow temperature is determined for the heating circuit and the heating circuit pump is switched off or on according to adjustable shutdown conditions.
  • Page 39 Heating circuit function Settings for the heating circuit operation with an additional link to the heat curve parameters: You can change the internal operating mode of the function by changing the Operation setting. RAS indicates that the setting of the room sensor is applied. If there is no room sensor installed, the setting Time/auto applies the time switch's time program to the heating circuit.
  • Page 40 Heating circuit function Settings for the heat curve: Room influence: If a room sensor is installed, you can use this setting to define how much influence the actual room temperature should have on the calculation of the set flow temperature. Values higher than 50 % will have a very great influence and will be unfavourable in most cases.
  • Page 41 Time switch Time switch The Time switch function is used to define the changeover between T.room standard and T.room setback in the heating circuit. The function can be programmed for a single heating circuit only, or jointly for several heating circuits. The "Time switch" can also be used to switch other functions or statuses.
  • Page 42 Calendar Calendar The calendar function overwrites the internal settings and specifications of the time switch for the heating circuit. The following calendar modes can be set: • Holiday • Party • Bank holiday • Standby There are up to 10 date windows available in which each mode can be set. Up to 3 set values can be set in each mode, one of which can be applied in the heating circuit as the set room temperature.
  • Page 43 Individual room control Individual room control This function is specially designed for the control of zone valves for heating and/or cooling of individual rooms. Room temperature thresholds and the operating mode switch on the room sensor can be utilised to switch between heating and cooling. Shutdown conditions prevent heating or cooling beyond the outside temperature thresholds.
  • Page 44 DHW demand DHW demand This function is used in many systems to define the domestic hot water cylinder temperature. The Demand is currently set to OFF, so the effective set temperature is only 5 °C. You can define the set temperatures via the Settings key (gearwheel): The DHW demand can be switched between two set temperatures via a time program from the Time switch function.
  • Page 45 Solar control Solar control The solar control starts or stops a solar pump based on the differential between the collector temperature and a reference temperature (e.g. temperature at the bottom of a cylinder). Option: use of a limit sensor (e.g. temperature at the top of the cylinder). Start conditions for the solar pump: 1.
