Start-up • Siemens • Idmar By means of the adapter in the delivery, the accessory can also be installed on radiator valves of type Danfoss RA (see “5.2.2 Danfoss RA adapter” on page 20). 5.2.1 Mounting the DHC Radiator Thermostat In case of visible damage to the existing radiator, valve or heating pipes, consult a specialist. Remove the old thermostat dial from your radiator valve.
Start-up with a screw. Loosen this screw and remove the thermostat dial from the valve (3). Threaded connection with set screw: Loosen • the set screw and remove the thermostat dial (3). After removing the old thermostat dial you can mount the DHC Radiator Thermostat with the union nut (A) to the ra- diator valve (see figure 6).
Start-up Be careful not to get your fingers caught between the two halves of the adapter! After clipping the adapter onto the valve body, fix it using the provided screw and nut. 5.2.3 Support ring The valves from different manufacturers may have toler- ance fluctuations that make the DHC Radiator Thermostat more loosely seated on the valve. In this case, the provided support ring should be placed into the flange before mount- ing the accessory (see figure 8). Adaption run Once the batteries have been inserted, the motor reserves.
Configuration time, no other operation is possible. » After the adapting run has been successful, the display returns back to normal. If the adapter run has been initiated prior to mount- ing or if an error message (F1, F2, F3) is displayed, press the menu/boost button (G) and the motor re- verses to the InS position.
Configuration Automatic mode In automatic mode, the temperature is controlled in ac- cordance with the set heating schedule. Manual changes are activated until the next point at which the schedule changes. Afterwards, the defined schedule will be activated again. Manual mode In manual mode, the temperature is controlled in accor- dance with the current temperature set via the push-but- tons (E + F).
