Control Centre. The back plate can be mounted directly to the wall surface. The ideal position to locate the RT300RF Control Centre is about 1.5m above floor level. It should be mounted in a location where the thermostat is accessible, reasonably lit and free from extremes of temperature and draughts. - Page 6 The RT300RF Receiver should be mounted in a suitable location that is both accessible for the connection of mains and control wiring, and allows good reception of the RF signal. The Receiver needs a 230V AC mains supply to operate, and this should be fused appropriately (13A max.). The Receiver should be mounted in a location where it will not come into contact with water, moisture or condensation.

Questions and answers
My room temperature is higher then the temp set on the thermostat but my boiler is still kicking in on the set time regardless of the temperature
The Salus RT300RF thermostat may be activating the boiler even when the room temperature is higher than the set temperature due to the following reasons:
1. Time Switch or Programmer Setting: The thermostat only works if the time switch or programmer is on. If the time switch is set to always on, the thermostat may activate the boiler even when not needed.
2. Faulty or Stuck Relay: The receiver unit may have a stuck relay, causing the boiler to remain on even when the thermostat does not call for heat.
3. Incorrect Thermostat Placement: If the thermostat is placed near a heat source or in a cold spot, it may misread the temperature and activate the boiler unnecessarily.
4. Signal Transmission Delay: The thermostat transmits signals at intervals, and a delay in communication between the thermostat and receiver may cause incorrect activation.
5. Reset or Reconfiguration Needed: If there was a recent change in settings or jumper positions, the reset button may need to be pressed for proper operation.
Checking these factors can help diagnose and resolve the issue.
