1. Introduction

1.1 Safety instructions This document contains important warnings and safety instructions which must be observed and

followed by the users. Failure to follow these warnings and safety instructions will put the fault-free

operation of the Room Controller Touch at risk.

1.2 Intended use The Room Controller Touch has been designed solely for residential use in private homes and small

offices. It is not suitable for industrial use.

The Room Controller Touch is designed to facilitate the climate control in a room and provide the user

access to this through an intuitive LCD Touch screen menu.

The Room controller can operate in two application modes:

• Control mode; in which the Room Controller Touch controls the regulation of the climate in a room

• Sensor mode; in which the Room Controller Touch registers the room climate conditions and the

user settings and sends them to an intelligent device, e.g. xComfort Smart Home Controller (SHC),

which actually controls the climate in the room.

Since the transmission of radio signals is based on a non-exclusive communication channel,

interference to the transmission are possible. Because of this, the Room Controller Touch

must not be used to control components with safety-related functions, such as

overheating protection, emergency stop or emergency call.

The use of the unit for any purpose other than described in this document or the failure to observe the

warnings and safety instructions it contains will immediately invalidate any claims in respect to the

warranty and/or liability.

1.3 Instructions for disposal Do not dispose of this device with regular domestic waste.

Electronic equipment must be disposed of at local collection points for waste electronic

equipment and in compliance with the local regulations governing waste electrical and electronic

equipment.

1.4 About this document These operating instructions are intended for end users and describe the operation and menu structure

of the Room Controller Touch.

Certain functions and their availability depend on the configuration of the Room Controller Touch during

the installation. These functions are marked with (Optional).

Please contact a suitable qualified electrical engineer for all assembly, installation and

basic configuration requirements or if you need to remove or dispose of the device.

Faulty installation or configuration can otherwise cause damage to property and persons.


2 The Room Controller Touch

2.1 Operation The Room Controller Touch is equipped with a Display with Backlight and Touch function. The display is

used to display the information through which, by touching the display, the Room Controller Touch can

be operated.

Note: The display is designed to respond to on-screen pressing only. Compared to the commonly

used touch displays for smartphones and tablets it may be the case that touching the

display a little more firmly is necessary.

In the Idle-state the display shows the temperature and status with the backlight switched off. On

touching the display it enters the Active-state. In this state, the backlight is switched on, and when

connected to the xComfort SHC, the information is refreshed to get the latest status.

Note: To maximize the battery life, a delay between the information on the display in the idle-

state and the actual status in the xComfort SHC is possible. The maximum possible delay

can be reduced by the installer, but this will lead to a reduction in the battery life. In other

configurations the display always contains the latest information.

2.2 Cleaning mode To prevent unwanted changes during the cleaning of the Room Controller Touch, the display can be put

into the cleaning mode.

The Room Controller Touch must only cleaned with glass cleaner or window cleaner, and

never with abrasive products

During the cleaning mode, the Room Controller Touch will ignore any touching on the display. The

display shows the remaining time in seconds until the Room Controller Touch switches back to normal

operation mode.

2.3 Replacing the batteries The Room Controller Touch operates with 2x LR03 (AAA) batteries which are located in the rear section

of the Room Controller.

Replace the batteries when the low battery indicator is shown on the display.

Note: Optionally, the Room Controller can also be used with an external mains power adapter. In

this case batteries are not required. Contact your installer for more information.

Do NOT press the center of the display to mount!! For the correct mounting, with two

hands, simply press the outer frame of the Room Controller Touch.

Used batteries should not be disposed of with regular domestic waste. They should be

taken to a battery disposal point.

Never recharge standard batteries!! This entails a risk of explosion.

Do not throw the batteries into fires

Do not short-circuit batteries

>10 Sec.


2.4 Operation mode The operation functions of the Room Controller Touch are grouped into the following:

• Frequently used operation functions, Basic operation functions.

• Occasionally used operation functions, Enhanced operation functions

• Changes to the settings, Edit operation functions

Note: To start operating the Room Controller Touch, touching the screen once is necessary to

activate the display.

To maximize the battery life, the Room Controller Touch display will enter the Idle-state. In this state,

the display shows the temperature and status with the backlight switched off. On touching the display

again it enters the Active-state. In this state, the backlight is switched on, and when connected to the

xComfort SHC, the information is refreshed to get the latest status.

2.5.5 Show Room Humidity

The Room Controller Touch also measures the humidity in the room, and the humidity can be displayed

by selecting the display humidity screen.

2.5.6 (Optional) Show outdoor temperature.

Sensor mode

This option is available when the Room Controller is connected to an intelligent device which provides

the outdoor temperature.

Control mode

The option is available in control mode if, during installation, the external temperature sensor input is

configured for use as an outdoor temperature sensor.


2.5.7 (Optional) Show Time and Day of Week

Optionally, the current time can be displayed. The option is available in both the sensor mode and the

control mode if the Week Program Timer is enabled during the installation.

2.5.8 (Optional) Touch-button(s)

The Touch-buttons of the Room Controller Touch can be used as push buttons to control the lights,

shutters/blinds in the room, for example, or to trigger Scenes in the xComfort SHC.

Note: To get the Touch-buttons, an actuator or intelligent device must be connected to the

Touch-button of the Room Controller during the installation. Contact your installer for

more information.

The Room Controller Touch has up to two Touch-buttons . Their behavior depends on the

configuration during the installation:

• 2x Single Pushbuttons: Each Touch-button is connected individually to an actuator(s) or to an

intelligent device (e.g. the xComfort SHC). The Touch-button acts as single pole pushbutton.

The Touch-button supports short pressing (e.g. switch on/off) and long pressing (e.g. dimming

up/down).

• 2x Single Rocker with arrow keys: Each Touch-button is individually connected to an actuator(s)

or to an intelligent device (e.g. xComfort SHC).

When the Touch-button is pressed it will start flashing, and the arrow keys are shown, which can

be used ‘up ‘ or ‘down’. In this respect on the ‘up’ key, apply a short press to switch on and a

long press to dim up. Press briefly on the ‘down’ key to switch off or to dim down.

• 1 Single Rocker: Both Touch-buttons are connected to the same actuator(s). The pair of Touch-

buttons behave as one 2 pole pushbutton. The Touch-button on the left is the ON/UP

(short/long press) part and on the right the OFF/DOWN part.


2.6 Enhanced Operating Instructions

2.6.1 (Optional) Activate/Deactivate Week Program

The Week Program can be optionally deactivated (OFF) or activated (ON). When it is OFF, it is only

possible to manually switch between the pre-defined set-point temperatures (operation mode), and

when it is ON, the operation mode is based on the programmed week program.

2.7 Edit Operating Instructions

2.7.1 Change Pre-Defined Set-Point Temperature

The Room Controller Touch supports up to 2 x 4 (4 for heating and 4 for cooling) different pre-defined

set-point temperatures (operation modes) which can be manually (re-)programmed via the screen.

Frost protection mode. Factory default values 10°C/32°C (or -5K with Room Manager)

Standby or Night mode. Factory default values 18°C/28°C (or -0,5K with Room Manager)

Economy mode. Factory default values 19°C/26°C (or -1K with Room Manager)

Comfort or Day mode. Factory default value 21°C/24°C (or 0K with Room Manager)

Sensor mode

When connected to the xComfort SHC, the values of the pre-defined temperature are the same as the

set-point temperatures in the SHC. Making a manual change on the Room Controller Touch will also

change the set-point in the SHC (and v.v.).

When connected to a Room Manager, the predefined temperatures are used as offset in the Room

Manager for the Room Manager’s current set-point temperature.

Control mode

The initial values used in controller mode are programmed during the installation (MRF). The set-point

values are used by the Room Controller Touch for the climate control.

Note: If the ‘Heating&Cooling’ mode is active, the Room Controller will maintain a minimum

temperature difference between the heating set-point and cooling set-point temperature

(dead zone) to prevent the continuous switching between heating and cooling. This dead

zone value can be configured during installation. The factory default is 3K.
