The OPTIMUM VIBE is a radio frequency programmable thermostat. It MUST be installed by a qualified person, in accordance with best practise and current IEE wiring regulations. Before programming, complete all set-up instructions.
Installation procedure: transmitter and receiver positioning
The receiver will normally be located close to the heat source, and should derive it’s mains supply from the same circuit that powers the heater / boiler. However avoid locating it directly next to the boiler’s case – see 1 below. The transmitter should be located within the property bearing in mind the following requirements: he transmitter has an on-board temperature sensor, which it uses to detect ambient temperature, and calculates whether to send a demand or no-demand signal to the receiver. The transmitter should be located in a main living area, where it is visible, has a free air-flow and is not unduly influenced by draughts or extraneous heat sources: radiator / direct sunlight / lamp— please refer to the diagrams below:
The radio-frequency signal range is 20 to 30 metres in conventional brick / timber / tile structures. Note that me- tallic materials such as reinforced concrete and foil-backed plasterboard will reduce or in some cases block the ra-dio frequency signals. It is best to position both transmitter and receiver so that they are not close to large metallic objects, and bear in mind that mirrors reflect radio waves in the same way they reflect light.
Place 2 x AAA alkaline batteries in the battery compartment at the back of the transmitter; ensure correct polarity. Set the time and day: After inserting batteries, the transmitter will jump to time-setting mode, or during normal operation, touch SET for five seconds, change the minutes, touch SET, change the hours, touch SET, change the day, touch SET. Then touch the ON/OFF icon to put in run mode. Full set-up can be completed later.
The transmitter can be wall-mounted, or placed on a table-top or counter, using the back-plate or the stand includ-ed in the carton. If wall-mounting, fix the back-plate to the wall observing the UP ↑ ↑ marks, align the top two recesses on the back of the transmitter, to the top two lugs on the back-plate, then rotate downwards to ‘click’ the other two lugs in place. Reverse this procedure to remove the transmitter from the back-plate. Note that – if you hold the transmitter for longer than a few seconds, it will start to detect your body temperature, rather than the ambient room temperature, and this will affect the calculation of demand / no demand for heat. Replace the transmitter onto the back-plate or stand so that it will again start to detect the ambient room temperature.
Fit the receiver to the wall, and connect to the terminals provided. See the wiring diagrams below:
Before connecting the receiver to the boiler, make sure that you have followed the boiler external thermostat connection instructions. A mains connection to a volt-free terminal could damage the boiler circuitry.
Connect 230V AC Live and Neutral to L & N Fit a short link wire between L & COM Connect the (230V mains) switched live to N O Do not connect anything to terminal N C
The VIBE receiver is a double-insulated Class II control. No earth connection is needed. Use a separate single screw terminal block to provide earth continuity if required. Clip the cover on top of the installed receiver: align the two lugs on the upper edge of the cover with the tabs on the base, and pivot downwards, applying light pressure until the housing clicks into place.
Power-up the control set and complete the setting up procedure
After fitting batteries to the transmitter; fitting the receiver to the wall and installing wired connections appropri-ate for the heating appliance, switch on the mains supply to the receiver. The green Power L E D should be visi-ble on the receiver. Now check the receiver response: keep the transmitter approximately 1 to 2 metres from the receiver, and touch the UP arrow to raise the SET temperature above the measured ROOM temperature. Within 2 or 3 seconds the demand symbol (see left) should appear in the display, and within a further ~10 seconds, the receiver.
Assuming the receiver response is O.K., proceed to the rest of the setting-up procedure.

Configuration options—additional notes:
Option | Description |
05 | If you set a frost-protection temperature, the heating will be switched on when the measured temperature falls below this level, even if the transmitter has been turned off. |
10 | 0 – (default) Room and Set temperatures displayed. 1 – only Set temperature displayed |
51 | 76— you can set every day with a different programme 526—two programme sequences can be set, one for weekdays, one for weekends. The fac- tory default programme shown in the user instruction is the default programme for both. |
52 | Please read ‘how it works’ for a full explanation of temperature regulation modes |
53 | Set if you chose OPs (Optimum Start) regulation. For the best results, the time interval se- lected should approximate the time taken to increase the room temperature by 1 degree. |
54 | Set if you chose TPi regulation. Select a lower number for heating systems with a slow re- sponse, and a higher number for heating systems with a fast response. |
55 | Set if you chose TPi regulation. Sets the temperature below the set-point at which TPi con- trol will begin |
Press and hold the centre override button on the receiver until the Heating on LED flashes rapidly. Release the override button—the LED must be flashing. Turn off the transmitter by touching the ON/OFF icon. The display will go blank. Now touch the SET icon for 5 seconds. A unique pre-set four-character code will show in the top left of the display. Release and then briefly touch the SET icon once more. The receiver LED will stop flashing and the RF link has been refreshed. Quit back to normal running mode by touching the ON/OFF icon.
