8 Install another Uponor Smatrix room
controller in the system
8.1
Preparation
Note
The room controller will time out after about 10 minutes
of inactivity and revert to normal operation. The timer will
be reset when a button is pressed or if a device has been
registered to it.
Note
Sub room controllers can only be registered to the
master room controller.
Note
If a room controller has been connected to a
communication module, disconnect the communication
module and restore it to sub room controller state by
factory reset.
Existing sub room controllers in the system must then
either, reset system device channel 01, or register to
another master room controller.
Multiple Uponor Smatrix room controllers can be linked together by
assigning one room controller to be master and the rest to be sub
room controllers.
The master room controller is assigned by connecting it to the
communication module (only one room controller can be master in
the system), and it can control up to three sub room controllers. Sub
room controllers are assigned when registered (in order) to the
master room controller.
• Ensure that all room controllers are powered and that at least
one thermostat is registered to each one.
• Ensure access to all room controllers before starting the
registration process.
• Assign master/sub roles to the room controllers by connecting
the communication module to the master room controller.
• Ensure the sub room controllers are placed witin radio range of
the master room controller.
8.2 Connect another room
controller
Caution!
Make sure the room controller is connected to a system
bus connector (one of the rightmost connectors) on the
room controller. Otherwise the room controllers will be
unable to communicate with each other.
Note
Up to four Uponor Smatrix room controllers can be
connected in the same system.
Uponor Smatrix room controllers can be connected to each other
using daisy chain, direct connection, or using star topology (the star
module can be used). A star module can only be used for one bus
type at a time. That is, a thermostat cannot be connected to a star
module connected to the system bus and vice versa.
Daisy chain connection
The thermostats in the example are connected in series and only one
cable needs to be routed from the room controller and slave module
(if available).
This method reduces the total length of cable needed in the system.
Direct connection to room controller and slave
module
Every thermostat in the example is connected to the room controller
and slave module (if available) with its own cable.
Connection to attached star module
The star module is attached to the room controller and slave module
(if available) adding extra connection terminals to the system. Each
thermostat in the example is connected direct to the room controller,
slave module (if available) and star module.
