  • Page 60 Error 1. Thermostat (Blueface Zero) - Module This incidence does not allow the zone to be controlled. To solve this incidence, refer to the steps below: Connections: Check the polarity of the connectors of the module and the thermostat. Wiring: Check that the voltage between the poles (W/-) and (Y/-) is about 0.65 VDC. Wiring: Verify that the connection bus module-thermostat is not next to low-voltage wiring.
  • Page 61 Error 1. Thermostat (Think) - Module This incidence does not allow the zone to be controlled. To solve this incidence, refer to the steps below: Thermostat status: Check the thermostat’s signal range from the module by checking the “Information” parameter (see the section System advanced settings - System parameters) or by bringing the thermostat closer to the module, if it re-establishes communication, it will be necessary to relocate the thermostat because it was not in signal range.
