MAIN UNIT DESCRIPTION

RECEIVER DESCRIPTION

FIRST USE WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS

The system comes with a main unit and receiver paired from the factory. Before use, you only need to pair the receiver unitwith the nearby Wireless Router.
At first start, the thermostat/receiver unit signals by LED 1 = “ slow blinks” which means it is necessary to connect the unit to the wireless router with Internet access.
Insert 2 AAA alkaline batteries (not included) into the main unit and turn it on by pressing the ON / OFF button. The settings appear as shown in the above description.
Connect the receiver unit to a 230 VAC power supply (only qualified personnel). Make sure it works properly by testing / checking the LED status and turning the unit On/Off by the dedicated button.

PAIRING THERMOSTAT WITH MOBILE APP AND WIRELESS INTERNET ROUTER

Connect your smartphone to the nearby wireless internet network. Activate GPS location on your smartphone if it is not activated. For a quick setup, make sure that both the phone, thermostat and receiver are as close as possible (1-3 m).
Download the “TuyaSmart” application from Google Play or App Store and install and register a new account.
Add a device by pressing the + button in the upper right corner.
Click on “All Devices” and access the Small Home Appliances category.
Find “Thermostat” or “Heater” in the list and select. Follow the on-screen steps, check the name of the Wifi network and enter the password of the Wifi network with internet access to which the phone is also connected.
Press and hold the pairing button on the receiver to enter the wifi pairing/connection mode until the LED flashes quickly. (LED 1 flash rarely, a sign that it is not connected to Wifi internet network)
Click the “Confirm indicator rapidly blink” box on the phone.
Wait for the countdown displayed on the screen until the connection is completed. The LED on the receiver will not flash and will remain lit continuously. At this moment the connection to the Internet through the Wireless The router is successful.
The receiver unit (gateway) will appear in the application together with the 2 thermostat units.
If the LED continues to flash slowly, the connection failed, try again from step 1.
If only the Gateway receiver unit appears in the application, in exceptional cases go to chapter II “Pairing the thermostat unit with the receiver unit”.

FIRST USAGE OF THERMOSTAT

Each display unit will control a single output from the receiver unit corresponding to the zone that is monitored by the respective unit.
With screen On, from the thermostat unit change the set temperature higher or lower than the measured and displayed temperature.
In a maximum of 90 seconds, the thermostat unit sends the command to the receiver unit, which confirms audibly with a “click” (the relay from inside) and visually on-screen by turning on/off the heating icon.
From the phone application “TuyaSmart” (make sure that the device appears online after setting up the internet) and press one of the 2 thermostats to access it.
Using the “+” and “-” buttons or the round cursor change the temperature higher or lower than the measured temperature from the room and display it on the screen.
In a maximum of 90 seconds, the application sends the command via the internet to the receiver unit, which confirms audibly with a “click”,(the relay inside) after which the heating icon appears/disappears on the screen.
Simultaneously, the temperature displayed on the thermostat unit will change according to the command. If the change does not take after 90
180 seconds (2 minutes) check again:
if you have changed the temperature higher / lower than the measured one in the room and displayed;
if the device is online in the application (Online – Intense color; Offline – faded color and “Offline” message).
if the thermostat is connected to the receiver – check the status of the radio signal indicator and the status of the thermostat in the mobile application (Online or Offline).

PAIR MAIN UNIT WITH RECEIVER UNIT

WARNING:

If the receiver unit is connected to the Router / Internet you can proceed to this step only if it is absolutely necessary (note the lack of communication) because the 2 units come paired from the factory.
If the receiver unit is not connected to the Router / Internet, it is mandatory to first connect it to the Router /Internet using the mobile application.

Perform this procedure only if absolutely necessary: if the connection of the receiver unit to the wireless router was successful but the thermostat unit does not receive/send for 5-10 minutes the commands sent/received to/from the mobile application and the icon is missing from the screen.

Press and hold the code pairing button on the receiver until the LED flashes quickly.
With the screen closed (press the On / Off button) press and hold the M button on the thermostat unit until a 4-digit code and “Radio signal indicator” appear on the screen.
Immediately press the “up arrow” button for pairing.The LED flashes slowly for a few moments after which it stays on. Icon flashes for a few moments after which it remains on, on the screen confirming that the pairing is completed.
Turn the thermostat unit on and off and test the functionality by changing the set temperature higher / lower than the current temperature displayed on the screen.

LED DESCRIPTION

LED continuously lit – The receiver unit is connected to the Router / Internet via wireless.
LED flashes quickly – pairing with the Thermostat Unit or the Internet Router.
LED flashes slowly – The thermostat/receiver is not connected to the internet.

SIGNAL LOST OR WEAK

In case of loss/disconnection of the RF signal (between the receiver and the thermostat unit) the icon will disappear from the screen (or blink rarely).
In case of disconnection from the Wifi network (Internet), The LED on the receiver unit will flash rarely. Move the units closer to each other, and the receiver unit to the WiFi router and check the status of the devices again.
If in a few minutes the operation does not return to normal, perform the pairing procedures of the receiver to the internet Router (with app) and with the thermostat unit afterward.

HOUR/DATE SETTING

With the main unit screen On, press and hold the M button for 5-6 seconds until the hour on the screen blinks.
You will see highlighted 0:00 on the screen. Set the minutes with the up and down buttons.
Continue pressing the M button.
Set the time with the up and down buttons.
Continue pressing the M button.
Select the day with the up and down buttons.
Continue pressing the M button.
Save the settings by pressing the ON / OFF button or wait about 15 seconds.

OPEN WINDOW DETECTION FUNCTION

When the “open window detection” mode is activated in advanced settings, the system will automatically switch off the heating if a sudden decrease in temperature (2°C in 15 minutes by default) occurs. This function is useful when opening a door/window (eg ventilation) without stopping the heating. The thermostat will return to the previous working mode after 30 minutes, and the “OP” icon will disappear from the screen. Press any button and the thermostat will exit the OWD function during the heating off period.

RECEIVER WIRING DIAGRAM

The operation of connecting the receiver unit with a 230 V power supply and central heating system must be performed only by qualified personnel and only after consulting the thermostat and boiler documentation. The receiver unit has two relay-type controls (COM-NO-NC / Normal Open and Normal Closed) without potential (non-energized). Each relayexecutes the closing/opening of a control circuit with a maximum current of 10 A, and a maximum voltage of 250 V AC / DC.
So if the heating system is designed with 2 hydraulically separated zones with 2 pumps/solenoid valves or even 2 boilers, you can separately control the heating of each zone (pumps/solenoid valves/boilers) separately with the help of this thermostat with 2 monitoring/control units. Find examples of connection with pumps/solenoid valves or certain models of thermal power plants at the end of the manual. Find examples of connections with certain models of Gas boiler Systems at the end of the user manual.

* The installation must be done only by the authorized installer and only after consulting the manuals, and checking the connections and their compatibility.

CONNECTION EXAMPLES WITH GAS BOILER SYSTEMS- THERMOSTAT PNI CT400 *

* The installation must be done only by an authorized installer and only after consulting the user manuals, and checking the connections and their compatibility.
In this case, each relay will control one of the two gas boiler systems dedicated for one of the 2 zones.
