Devices in general

Do not expose devices to dripping water.

Room units Install room units in the main occupancy rooms.

The place of installation should be chosen so that the sensor can capture the room
temperature as accurately as possible without getting adversely affected by direct
solar radiation or other heat or refrigeration sources (about 1.5 meters above the
floor)

Powered by base The base provides the power for QAA55 and QAA75. When the units are removed
from the base, power is cut off (i.e. the units are out of operation).

2.2 RF components
RF devices in general The wireless components should be located such that transmission is as
interference-free as possible. For installation, the following points must be
observed:
l Not in the vicinity of electrical cables, strong magnetic fields or equipment such
as PCs, TVs, microwave ovens, etc.
l Not near larger metal structures or constructional elements with fine metal
meshes, such as special glass or concrete.
l The distance to the transmitter should not exceed 30 meters or 2 floors

Do not expose devices to dripping water.

Room units Install room units in the main occupancy rooms.

The place of installation should be chosen so that the sensor can capture the room
temperature as accurately as possible without getting adversely affected by direct
solar radiation or other heat or refrigeration sources (about 1.5 meters above the
floor)

2.2.4 RF module BSB AVS71.393

The RF module BSB extends the product range by introducing wireless
communication. The RF module BSB allows system components, such as room
units, to transmit data without laying cables.
In contrast to the RF module AVS71.390 communication occurs between RF
module BSB and basic unit (controller) via BSB. As a result, the RF module BSB
can be placed farther away from the basic unit (controller) (see Technical data).

RF module (AVS71.390) and RF module BSB (AVS71.393) cannot be used

concurrently.

Engineering l Do not install the unit inside a metal housing.

l Use the device only inside a building.

To check required RF components, go to the "RF" operating page, operating lines
130 to 132 and 134 to 137.
Via the operating level "Commissioning".
In the aforementioned operating lines, you can see whether the desired room units,
operator units and RF repeaters (as applicable) are operations or not (or no
reception).

The final check of the RF components is conducted using an operator or room

unit featuring operating line display (not QAA5x).

l Protective functions active.

l Automatic summer / winter changeover (ECO functions)

Continuous operation or

On: The DHW is treated according to the selected switching program. Keep hot
function is generally released.
On Eco: Same as operating mode "On", but: Keep hot function is off.
Off: No DHW heating, but the protective function is active.

The keep hot function maintains the temperature of the instantaneous DHW
heater so that warm water is quickly available the next time the facet is turned on.

DHW push
The DHW push function is only available for the DFW storage tank.

The DHW push is triggered by pressing the DHW mode button for an extended
period (> 3 seconds).
DHW push initiates a single DHW charging cycle to the nominal setpoint. The push
is active until the nominal DHW setpoint is reached.
DHW push can also be started when:
l DHW mode is "off".
l Operating mode changeover is effected via H1 or centrally (LPB)
l All heating circuits use the holiday function

NOTICE

Once triggered, the DHW push cannot be cancelled via the operator unit.
