▪ Connect X1 and X2 (changeover to external heat source) on the digital I/O PCB to
the auxiliary boiler. See "9.3.8 To connect the changeover to external heat
source"[4121].
▪ To setup the heat emitters, see "6.2 Setting up the space heating/cooling
system"[433].
Configuration
Via the user interface (configuration wizard):
▪ Set the use of a bivalent system as external heat source.
▪ Set the bivalent temperature and hysteresis.
▪ Set the operation mode to space heating only (no tank operation).
Changeover to external heat source decided by an auxiliary contact
▪ Only possible in external room thermostat control AND one leaving water
temperature zone (see "6.2Setting up the space heating/cooling system"[433]).
▪ The auxiliary contact can be:
- An outdoor temperature thermostat
- An electricity tariff contact
- A manually operated contact
- …
▪ Setup: Connect the following field wiring:
B
TI
Boiler thermostat input
A Auxiliary contact (normally closed)
H Heating demand room thermostat (optional)
K1A Auxiliary relay for activation of indoor unit (field supply)
K2A Auxiliary relay for activation of boiler (field supply)
Indoor Indoor unit
Auto Automatic
Boiler Boiler
NOTICE
▪ Make sure the auxiliary contact has enough differential or time delay to prevent
frequent changeover between indoor unit and auxiliary boiler.
▪ If the auxiliary contact is an outdoor temperature thermostat, install the
thermostat in the shadow so that it is NOT influenced or turned ON/OFF by direct
sunlight.
▪ Frequent changeover may cause corrosion of the auxiliary boiler. Contact the
manufacturer of the auxiliary boiler for more information.
Setpoint of the auxiliary gas boiler
To prevent freeze-up of the water piping, the auxiliary gas boiler must have a fixed
setpoint ≥55°C, or a weather-dependent setpoint ≥T
