Work under load up to 16 A/10 A
The AURATON Fornax receiver is equipped with a relay that can operate under a load of up
16 A
to 16 A/10 A. The low-spark technology of switching the mains voltage causes minimal wear
of the relay contacts.
Interference-free communication between devices
The transmitter and the receiver from the Tucana R AURATON set communicate at 868 MHz.
Very short, encrypted data transmission packets (approx. 0.004 sec.) ensure efficient and
interference-free operation of the device.

    The correct operation of AURATON Tucana R is largely influenced by its location. Using the device in a place with no air circulation or a place with direct sunlight may result in incorrect temperature control. AURATON Tucana R should be installed on the internal wall of a building (a partition wall), in an environment with free air circulation.

IMPORTANT: The night temperature setting can be equal to or lower than the day temperature. It is impossible for the night temperature to be higher than the day temperature.

  • Page 17: Factory Programs

    Factory programs In order for AURATON Tucana R to know when to turn on the day and night temperatures, you should be set to an appropriate program for each day of the week. For this purpose, you can use one of the three factory programs (from 0 to 2): Program no.

  • Page 18: Weekly Programming

    Programming Weekly programming In order to program the AURATON Tucana R, it is necessary to decide on which day of the week and during what period of time the day temperature should be maintained. During the remaining time, the night temperature will be maintained.
  • Page 19 Press the button. The program description field starts flashing. Press the button. Using the buttons or the button set the day of the week when the program should be executed.
  • Page 20 Pressing the button several times, select the desired program number. Programs no. 0-2 are factory-defined and programs no. 3-9 can be modified. Confirm the setting with the button. Return to step 1 and repeat the above procedure for the next day of the week. Programming can end when each day of week is assigned an appropriate program.

  • Page 25: Holiday Mode

    We sometimes leave our homes for longer periods. To avoid reprogramming the whole AURATON Tucana R device, we can use the holiday mode, which makes AURATON Tucana R achieve only one temperature during our absence. The holiday mode can last from a minimum of 1 hour and to a maximum of 99 days.
  • Page 26 Press and hold the button for 3 seconds. The display will show the temperature and a flashing time field for setting the holiday mode duration. Use the buttons to set the duration at 1 to 23 hours and then 1 to 99 days. Confirm the setting with the button.
  • Page 27 The holiday temperature is independent of the day, night or anti-freeze temperatures. Setting the anti-freeze temperature program In AURATON Tucana R, you can set the anti-freeze temperature in the range of 0 °C to 10 °C but it cannot be deactivated (the factory setting of the anti-freeze temperature is 7 °C).
