External sensor input B1-M
With the RDF110, a return air / external room temperature sensor or heating / cooling
changeover sensor can be connected to terminal B1-M. The function of this sensor
input is determined by parameter P22.
Sensor input B1-M is not galvanically separated from the AC 230 V mains supply.
Therefore, only a cable temperature sensor and wiring with sufficient insulation must be
used.
When P22 is set to “Automatic H/C changeover”, the sensor input acts to ensure
automatic heating / cooling changeover. The water temperature acquired by the
changeover sensor (QAH11.1 + ARG86.3) is used to switch from heating to cooling
mode, or vice versa. When the water temperature lies above 28 °C (parameter P24),
the controller switches to heating mode; below 16 °C (parameter P23), it switches to
cooling mode. If, immediately after switching on, the water temperature lies between
the 2 changeover points, the controller will start in heating mode. The water
temperature is acquired at 30-second intervals and the operating state is updated.

With parameter P99 (diagnostic value), automatic heating / cooling changeover can be
checked.
When parameter P22 is set to “Cooling only” or “Heating only”, sensor input
B1-M can be used to connect an external room temperature (QAA32) or a return air
temperature sensor (QAH11.1). Changeover is automatic if a sensor is detected at the
sensor input. With parameter P98 (diagnostic value), the sensor status can be checked.
The following table summarizes the relation between parameter P22, the external
sensor B1-M and variables which the controller uses for maintaining the temperature:
