Connecting external controllers In the case of a wired connection between devices: external controllers (EU-L-12 and EU-ML-12), regulators and the panel, termination resistors (jumpers) should be used at the beginning and at the end of the transmission line. The external controllers have a built-in termination resistor, which should be set in the appropriate position: •...
Page 10
Connection between external controller and regulators In the case of connecting the regulators to the first external controller, the jumper should be switched to the ON position in the external controller and the last regulator. In the case of connecting the regulators to the external controller placed in the middle of the transmission line, the jumper should be switched to the ON position in the first and the last regulator.
Page 11
Connection between external controller and panel NOTE The panel should be connected to the first or last external controller due to the fact that the panel does not use a termination resistor.
Step 4. Configure the settings for temperature sensors and room regulators In order to enable the EU-L-12 to control a given zone, it is necessary to provide it with current temperature value. The easiest way is to use a wired or wireless temperature sensor (EU-C-7p, EU-C-mini, EU-CL-mini, EU-C-8r). If the user wants to be able to change the pre-set temperature value directly from the zone, it is advisable to use EU-R-8X, EU-R-8b, EU-R-8z, EU-R-8b Plus room regulators or dedicated regulators EU-R-12b, EU-R-12s, EU-F-12b or EU-R-X.

NOTE If the duration of a given pre-set temperature value is set as CON, this temperature will apply for an indefinite period of time (constant temperature). 2.3. OPERATION MODE This submenu enables the user to view, edit and configure the operation mode in a given zone. •...
• Next, go on to edit the days which will be assigned to the first or the second part of the week. Active days are displayed in white. Use the MENU button to confirm and the arrows to move between the days. Once the schedule for all days has been set, press the EXIT button and select Confirm by pressing the MENU button.
4.1. MAIN MODULE The EU-L-12 controller is treated as the main module offering the user access to 8 zones which may be freely configured. 4.1.1. ZONES Menu Fitter’s menu Main module Zones Room sensor Zones Pre-set temperature Operation mode Outputs configuration...

4.1.1.4. OUTPUTS CONFIGURATION The option is used to control the outputs: floor pump, voltage-free contact and outputs of sensors 1-8 (NTC for temperature control in the zone or floor sensor for floor temperature control). The outputs of sensors 1-8 are assigned to zones 1-8 respectively.

– pre-programmed change from economical temperature to comfort temperature Activating this function means that at the time of a pre-programmed change of the pre-set temperature from comfort to economical or the other way round, the current room temperature is close to the desired value. NOTE The Optimum start function works only in the heating mode.
Page 21
• Protection - when this function has been selected, the controller starts monitoring the temperature. If the pre-set temperature is exceeded by the number of degrees specified in the Range parameter, all actuators in a given zone will be closed (0% opening). This function works only when the SIGMA function is enabled. •...

➢ Calibration – floor sensor calibration should be performed while mounting or after it has been used for a long time, if the floor temperature displayed differs from the actual temperature. Calibration setting range is from -10°C to +10°C with the accuracy of 0,1°C. NOTE The floor sensor is not used in the cooling mode.

Main module Mixing valve The EU-L-12 controller may control an additional valve using a valve module (e.g. EU-i-1m). This valve offers RS communication, but it is necessary to carry out the registration process, which requires the module number (found on the back of the module casing or in the software version screen).
Page 24
➢ Minimum opening - the parameter determines the smallest valve opening. Thanks to this parameter, the valve may be opened minimally, to maintain the smallest flow. NOTE If the minimum opening is set to 0% (completely closed), the pump will not work when the valve is closed. ➢...

functions do not work: CH boiler protection, Return protection. This type of valve works despite Summer mode being active, whereas the pump operation is based on deactivation threshold. In addition, this type of valve has a separate heating curve for the Weather-based control function.
Page 26
This function is active only with RS room regulator and it is closely related to the Room temperature difference parameter. Example: Room temperature difference: 0,5°C Change in the set temp.: 1°C Pre-set valve temperature: 40°C Pre-set temperature of room regulator: 23°C If the room temperature rises to 23,5ºC (0,5ºC above the pre-set room temperature), the valve closes until 39ºC is reached (1ºC change).
Page 27
➢ Return protection – this function allows setting up CH boiler protection against too cool water returning from the main circulation, which could cause low-temperature boiler corrosion. The return protection involves closing the valve when the temperature is too low, until the short circuit of the boiler reaches the appropriate temperature. NOTE This function is not available when the Cooling...

MODE 1 – the user sets the temperature deviations for each day of the week separately. In order to do it, follow these steps: → Select Set mode → Select the day of the week to be edited. → Use the buttons to select the hour for which the temperature will be edited and confirm by pressing the MENU button.
An external temperature sensor can be connected to the EU-L-12 controller, which enables weather-based control function to be activated. The system allows only one to be registered in the main module (EU-L-12), and the current value of the outside temperature is displayed on the main screen and sent to other devices (EU-ML-12 and EU-M-12).
4.5. REPEATER CONFIGURATION Menu Fitter’s menu Repeater configuration In order to be able to use the repeater between the EU-L-12, EU-ML-12 and EU-M-12 controllers, it must first be configured. Activate the Repeater configuration function in the EU-L-12 controller by selecting Menu →...
4.6. INTERNET MODULE Menu Fitter’s menu Internet module Internet module is a device enabling the user remote control of the CH boiler via the Internet. The emodul.eu application enables the user to control the status of all the system devices as well as adjust certain parameters. After registering and switching the module on and selecting DHCP option, the controller automatically downloads such parameters as IP Address, IP Mask, Gateway Address and DNS Address from the local network.
Pump EU-L-12 controls the pump operation - it enables the pump (after the pre-defined delay time) if any of the zones has not reached the pre-set temperature and the floor pump operation option has been activated in the given zone. When all the zones reach the pre-set temperature, the pump is disabled.
4.13. MAXIMUM HUMIDITY Menu Fitter’s menu Maximum humidity If the current humidity level is higher than the maximum humidity, cooling will be disabled in a given zone. NOTE This function is available in the Cooling mode when a humidity sensor is registered in the zone. 4.14.
