SALUS WQ610RF Wi-Fi Thermostat

Introduction

The SALUS Quantum WQ610 and WQ610RF thermostats are Boiler Plus compatible thermostats, designed specifically to control central heating boilers and also in the case of the RF versions, electrical panel heaters. They have our new load compensation (ITLC) software with Volt free switch and also Opentherm 4.0 connections, so you can choose the method of control to suit your boiler/installation. Please note that the Boilers need to have an OpenTherm Association license to be fully compatible with WQ610 range(should you wish to connect to the OpenTherm terminals A and B). Please verify if this requirement is met with your Boiler Manufacturer.

OpenTherm: Configuration

This menu will only be visible if your boiler is OpenTherm compatible and you have connected to terminals A and B.
OpenTherm is a method of control used by modern heating systems. Instead of switching a boiler on and off at intervals, modulating control allows the amount of heat provided by the boiler to be controlled to match the varying demand from the thermostat. This means the customer has greater system efficiency, energy saving and room comfort from our heating controls.

Temperature Values for Opentherm

 Please note that below values can be manually set only if the boiler allows it.

CH (Central Heating)	HW (Hot Water)
MIN TEMP:  25 °C	MIN TEMP:  40 °C
MAX TEMP:  80 °C	MAX TEMP:  80 °C
DEFAULT TEMP:  75 °C	DEFAULT TEMP:  60 °C

If an Opentherm fault is detected on the boiler, the thermostat will display the above messages. These errors are not related to the thermostat.
WQ610RF: Pairing with the Receiver

 The pairing between the thermostat and the receiver is already done at the factory. However, should you need to re-pair the units then this can be done using the User Menu. The link may also be tested from the User Menu to show pairing link has been successful. Before pairing, the Receiver should be unplugged, then plugged back in. During the pairing process, the distance between the Thermostat and the Receiver should beat least 1m.

Turn the receiver OFF and ON twice to reset. Ensure receiver switches are ON and AUTO. Red LED should be flashing. Enter thermostat MENU and scroll down until you will see “PAIR WITH RECEIVER” option. Select YES to proceed with Pairing.

Now your thermostat is looking for the receiver. A 10-minute counter will appear on the screen.

Upon connecting to the receiver, the thermostat will display the message “PAIRING SUCCESSFUL” and return to normal operation afterward. The red LED will stop flashing when the pairing is successful.

WQ610RF: Testing Link

Enter MENU and scroll down until you find „TEST LINK” option. Press TICK button to continue.

Now your thermostat is sending a TEST message to the receiver with the expectation of receiving a response. While testing, both red and green LEDs will be intermittently
