1.4 Target audience, prerequisites
This document assumes that users of the RDF KNX thermostats are familiar with
the ETS and/or Synco ACS tools and able to use them.
It also presupposes that these users are aware of the specific conditions associ-
ated with KNX.
In most countries, specific KNX know-how is conveyed through training centers
certified by the KNX Association (see www.konnex.org/
).
For reference documentation, see section 1.2.
1.5 Glossary
The inputs, outputs and parameters of an application can be influenced in various
ways. These are identified by the following symbols in this document:
Parameters identified by this symbol are set using ETS.
Parameters identified by this symbol are set using the ACS tool.
Setting RDF KNX parameters is only supported by the following tool
versions:
– ETS3f or higher
– ACS version 5.11 or higher
Inputs and outputs identified by this symbol communicate with other KNX devices.
They are called communication objects (CO).
The communication objects of the RDF KNX thermostats work partly in S-mode,
partly in LTE mode, and partly in both. These objects are described accordingly.
A list of the parameters is shown in section 3.13.

2.4 Integration via KNX bus
The RDF room thermostats can be integrated as follows:
Integration into Synco 700 system via LTE mode (easy engineering)
Integration into Synco living via group addressing (ETS)
Integration into Desigo and Apogee via group addressing (ETS) or individual
addressing
Integration into third-party systems via group addressing (ETS)
The following KNX functions are available:
Central time program and setpoints, e.g. when using the RMB795 central control
unit
Outside temperature or time of day via bus displayed on thermostat
Remote operation and monitoring, e.g. using the RMZ792 bus operator unit
Remote operation and monitoring with web browser using the OZW772 or
OZW775 web server
Maximum energy efficiency due to exchange of relevant energy information, e.g.
with Synco 700 controllers (e.g. heating demand, cooling demand)
RDF301.50 only: 4 buttons to control KNX actuators via KNX S-mode
("switching groups" with functions such as switching, dimming, blinds control,
8-bit scene)
Alarming, e.g. external fault contact, condensation, clean filter, etc.
Monitoring input for temperature sensor or switch
Engineering and commissioning can be done using…
– local DIP switches / HMI
– Synco ACS service tool
– ETS
The RDF room thermostats are especially tailored for integration into the Synco
700 system and operate together in LTE mode. This extends the field of use of
Synco for individual room control in conjunction with fan coil units, VAV, chilled
ceilings and radiators.
Thanks to S-mode extension to the QAX9x3 central apartment unit, communicating
room thermostats can be easily integrated into Synco living systems. Using the
S-mode data points of the central apartment unit, additional room information can
be exchanged with the room thermostat via KNX TP1 (RF function is not available
on the room thermostats). To make the integration, the ETS engineering tool is
required.

3. Functions
3.1 Temperature control
Setting of the control parameters (P01, etc., mentioned throughout the document)
is described in section 3.13.
The thermost
at acquires the room temperature via built-in sensor, external room
temperature sensor (QAA32), or external return air temperature sensor (QAH11.1),
and maintains the setpoint by delivering actuator control commands to heating
and/or cooling equipment. The following control outputs are available:
ON/OFF control (2-position)
Modulating PI/P control with 3-position control output (only for 2-pipe
applications)
The switching differential or proportional band is 2 K for heating mode and 1 K for
cooling mode (adjustable via parameters P30 and P31).
The integral action time for modulating PI control is 5 minutes (RDF301...) and 45
minutes (RDF600KN), adjustable via parameter P35.
The display shows the acquired room temperature or the Comfort setpoint, selecta-
ble via parameter P06. The factory setting displays the current room temperature.
Use parameter P04 to change the room temperature display from °C to °F as
needed.
The acquired room temperature (internal or external sensor) is also available as
information on the bus.
With automatic changeover or continuous heating / cooling, symbols
/
indicate that the system currently heats or cools (heating or cooling output is
activated).
With manual changeover (P01 = 2), symbols
/ indicate that the system
currently operates in heating or cooling mode. Thus, the symbols are displayed
even when the thermostat operates in the neutral zone.
Concurrent display of the current temperature or setpoint in °C and °F (parameter
P07 = 1) is possible on the thermostats.
The outside temperature can be displayed on the room thermostat by setting
parameter P07 = 2. This temperature value has only information character.
In LTE mode, the outside temperature can only be received on outside temperature
zone 31.
In S-mode, the corresponding communication object needs to be bound with a
KNX sensor device.
Time of day via bus can be displayed on the room thermostat by setting parameter
P07 = 3 or 4. The display format is either in 12- or in 24-hour format.
The information can be received from a Synco controller with time master
functionality or any other KNX device if the corresponding communication object is
bound.
When an application program is downloaded to the Synco devices via ETS, the
correct group addresses need to be downloaded as well to display the time of day
on the room thermostat. (see Synco Knowledge Base - KB771)

3.2 Operating modes
The thermostat's operating mode can be influenced in different ways (see below).
Specific heating and cooling setpoints are assigned to each operating mode.
The thermostat sends the effective room operating mode on the bus.
The following operating modes are available:
In Auto Timer mode the room operating mode is commanded via bus.
Auto Timer is replaced by Comfort when no time schedule via bus is present
In Comfort mode, the thermostat maintains the Comfort setpoint. This setpoint can
be defined via parameters P8, P9 and P10.
It can be locally adjusted via the +/- buttons or via bus.
In Comfort mode, the fan can be set to automatic or manual fan speed: Low,
medium or high.
The setpoints (less heating and cooling than in Comfort mode) can be defined via
parameters P11 and P12.
The thermostat switches to Economy mode when...
– the operating mode button is pressed (only possible if parameter P02 is set to 2)
– Economy is sent via bus
– an operating mode switchover contact (e.g. keycard contact presence detector,
window contact) is active.
The contact can be connected to multifunctional input X1, X2.
Set parameter P38 / P40 to 3 (P02 is irrelevant) *)
– "Window state" is sent via bus, e.g. from a KNX switch or a KNX presence
detector (P02 is irrelevant) *)
*) Operating mode switchover: Only one input source must be used, either local
input X1/X2or KNX bus.
User operations are ineffective and “OFF” is displayed if the operating mode
switchover contact is active, or if "Window state" is sent via bus.
In Protection mode, the system is...
– protected against frost (factory setting 8 °C, can be disabled or changed via
P65)
– protected against overheating (factory setting OFF, can be enabled or changed
via P66)
No other operating mode can be selected locally if Protection mode is commanded
via bus.

3.2.1 Different ways to influence the operating mode
The operating mode can be influenced by different interventions.
The source of the effective room operating mode state can be monitored using the
"Cause" diagnostic data point in the ACS tool, operator unit RMZ792 or web server
OZW772 / 775.
Source Description Value of DP "Cause"
Operating mode is not Auto Timer
No time schedule via bus
Room operating mode selector

The following table shows the priorities of different interventions.
A lower number means a higher priority.
Priority Description Remark
Commissioning In parameter setting mode (highest priority), you can always
command an operating mode independent of all other settings or
intervention via bus and local input.
Protection mode via bus
from time schedule
Protection mode, sent by a time schedule, has priority 2.
It cannot be overridden by the user nor by an operating mode
switchover contact.
Operating mode
switchover contact
If the contact is closed, the operating mode changes to Economy.
This overrides the operating mode on the thermostat.
"Window state" via bus
"Window state" sent via bus has the same effect as the operating
mode switchover contact.
Note: Only one input source must be used, either local input
X1/X2 or KNX bus.
Operating mode button The user can switch the operating mode using the operating
mode button.
Operating mode via bus The operating mode can be changed via bus
Temporary extended
Comfort mode via
operating mode button
The operating mode can be temporarily set from Economy to
Comfort by pressing the operating mode button, if...
– Economy was sent via bus
– extended Comfort period >0 (parameter P68)
The last intervention wins, either locally or via bus
Time schedule via bus
The operating mode sent via bus can be overridden by all other
interventions. Exception: Protection mode has priority 2.

Building Technologies Functions 2012-10-04
If a time schedule via bus is present, e.g. from central control unit, then the Auto
Timer mode
is active. The thermostat automatically changes between Comfort
and Economy according to the time schedule via bus.
The display shows the Auto Timer mode symbol
along with the symbol for the
effective room operating mode (Comfort
or Economy ).
By pressing the operating mode button, you can change to another operating
mode.
Automatic fan is the default fan speed in Auto Timer mode.
Each time the time schedule sends a new operating mode (switching event), the
operating mode of the thermostat is set back to Auto Timer mode. This is to assure
that the room temperature is maintained according to the time schedule.
If the time schedule sends Precomfort mode, then this mode will be transformed
either into Economy (factory setting) or Comfort (selectable via parameter P88).
No intervention is possible neither by the user nor by an operating mode switch-
over contact, if Protection mode is set by the time schedule. OFF flashes on the
display when the user presses a button.
The operating mode can be selected locally via the operating mode button.
The behavior of the operating mode button (user profile) can be defined via
parameter P02, factory setting is P02 = 1.

Suited for homes and rooms where manual switching to
Economy mode is desired
The thermostat can be forced into Economy mode (e.g. when a window is opened,
when a presence detector signals "no one present", when the keycard of a hotel
room is withdrawn, etc). The contact can be connected to multifunctional input X1,
X2. Set parameter P38, P40 to 3.
The function is also available via the KNX signal "Window state", e.g. from a KNX
switch or a KNX presence detector.
Note: Only one input source must be used, either local input X1/X2 or KNX bus.
User operations are ineffective and “OFF” is displayed if the operating mode
switchover contact is active, or if "Window state" is sent via bus.

Comfort mode can be temporarily extended (e.g. working after business hour or on
weekends) when the thermostat is in Economy mode. The operating mode button
switches the operating mode back to Comfort for the period preset in P68.
Press the operating mode button again to stop the timer.
The following conditions must be fulfilled:
mode selection via operating mode button is set to “Protection-Auto” (P02 = 1)
and the time schedule via bus is Economy
Parameter P68 (extend Comfort period) is greater than 0
During the temporary Comfort mode extension, symbol
appears.
If parameter P68 (extend Comfort period) = 0, extended Comfort cannot be
activated; pressing the operating mode button will switch the thermostat to
Protection.
If the operating mode switchover contact is active, pressing the operating mode

3.2.2 Communication examples
The following examples show two typical applications of a central time schedule in
conjunction with local control of the room operating mode.
The room operating mode in rooms 1…2 of a building is determined by the time
schedule. Window contacts are fitted in all rooms.
The following conditions are specified:
The rooms are used and controlled by the time schedule as follows:
– Night setback from 17:00 to 08:00 (Economy)
– Protection from 20:00 to 06:00
– Lunch break from 12:00 to 13:00 (Precomfort)
The substitution (parameter P88) for Precomfort via bus is set on the thermostats
as follows:
– Room 1: Comfort (1)
– Room 2: Economy (0)
Operating mode switchover
In room 1, the window is opened briefly, once in the morning, once in late
afternoon and once at night (1). Only the opening in the morning has a direct
impact on the effective room operating mode.
During lunch break, the time schedule changes to Precomfort. The mode remains
in Comfort as set by parameter “Transformation Precomfort” (P88 = 1).

Interaction of user operation (operating mode button) and central time
schedule
In room 2, the window is opened briefly, once in the morning and once at night (1).
Only the opening in the morning has a direct impact on the effective room opera-
ting mode.
With the operating mode button, the operating mode can be changed between
OFF and Auto or temporary Comfort extension respectively.
During lunch break, the time schedule changes to Precomfort. The mode of the
thermostat changes to Economy as set by parameter “Transformation
Precomfort” (P88 = 0) (6)
During lunch break, the user changes the operating mode to Comfort
(temporary Comfort extension) by pressing the operating mode button (2).
At 13:00, the timer is reset due to mode change of the central time schedule
In the afternoon, the user switches the thermostat off by pressing the operating
mode button (3). At 17:00 the user setting is reset to Economy by the time
schedule
At 19:30, the user again extends the Comfort mode (4). At 20:00, the timer is
reset by the time schedule
After 20:00, pressing the operating mode button has no effect, as the central
time switch sets the thermostat to Protection (5)

3.3 Room temperature setpoints
3.3.1 Description
The factory setting for the Comfort basic setpoint is 21 °C and can be changed in
the thermostat’s EEPROM via parameter P08 or via bus with communication object
" Comfort basic setpoint". The last intervention always wins.
The Comfort setpoint can be adjusted via the +/- buttons,
or via bus from a remote device like a touchpanel, operating unit, etc.
The last intervention always wins.
If the “Temporary setpoint” function is enabled via parameter P69, the Comfort
setpoint adjusted via the +/- buttons or via bus is set back to the Comfort basic
setpoint stored in P08 when the operating mode changes.
For comfort or energy saving purposes, the setpoint setting range can be limited to
minimum (P09) and maximum (P10).
If the minimum limit P09 is set lower than the maximum limit P10, both heating
and cooling are adjustable between these 2 limits
The customer adjusts the desired setpoint and the thermostat controls the room
temperature accordingly.
For 4-pipe applications *), the selected comfort setpoint is in the middle of the
dead zone (P33). The unit stops to energize the heating / cooling outputs as
soon as the room temperature reaches the dead zone.
Example
5°C 40°C25°C18°C
P10P09
Cooling setpoint adjustable 18…25 °C
Heating setpoint adjustable 18…25 °C
If the minimum limit P09 is set higher than the limit P10, then
– The setting range of cooling setpoint is from P09…40 °C in place of 5…40 °C
– The setting range of heating setpoint is from 5…P10 °C in place of 5…40 °C.
This allows the user to limit the maximum heating setpoint and the minimum
cooling setpoint. This concept helps to save energy costs.
For 4-pipe applications *):
– The thermostat runs with the setpoint of the active sequence:
In heating mode, the heating setpoint is active and adjustable via rotary knob.
In cooling mode, the cooling setpoint is active and adjustable via rotary knob.
– Switching from the heating setpoint to the cooling setpoint and vice-versa
occurs when the room temperature reaches the adjusted limitation (P09 or
P10) of the inactive sequence. E.g. the thermostat is in heating sequence
and runs with the heating setpoint. When the room temperature reaches P09,
the thermostat switches to cooling mode and runs with the cooling setpoint, as
long as the room temperature does not drop below P10.
Example
5°C 40°C25°C21°C
P09P10
Cooling setpoint adjustable 25…40 °C
Heating setpoint adjustable 5…21 °C
For heating and cooling applications (e.g. 4-pipe):
P09 is the setpoint for cooling and P10 the setpoint for heating
– The setpoint can not be adjusted via the rotary knob

Use control parameters P11 and P12 to adjust the Economy mode setpoints.
The heating setpoint is factory-set to 15 °C, and the cooling setpoint to 30 °C.
Use control parameters P65 and P66 to adjust the Protection mode setpoints.
The heating setpoint is factory-set to 8 °C (frost protection) and to OFF for cooling.
If a setpoint (Economy or Protection) is set to OFF, the thermostat does not control
the room temperature in the corresponding mode (heating or cooling).
This means no protective heating or cooling function and thus risk of frost in
heating mode or risk of overtemperature in cooling mode!
The Economy setpoints are accessible at the service level (P11, P12); the
Protection setpoints at the expert level (P65, P66).

Central setpoint shift is used for summer / winter compensation in particular
Setpoint shift does not affect the setpoints stored in parameters P08, P11, P12,
P33
Local shift and central shift are added together
Applies only to Comfort and Economy setpoints; Protection setpoints are not
shifted centrally
The resulting (current) setpoint heating and cooling is limited by the Protection
setpoint; if Protection setpoint is OFF, then minimum 5 °C and maximum 40 °C
are used
The resulting setpoints for cooling and heating of the same operating mode have
a minimum distance of 0.5 K between them
The result of local and central shift, together with the room operating mode, is
used by the thermostat for temperature control (current setpoint)

3.4 Applications overview
The thermostats support the following applications, which can be configured using
the DIP switches inside the front panel of the unit or a commissioning tool.
All DIP switches need to be set to OFF (remote configuration, factory setting) to
select an application via commissioning tool.
The tool offers the applications printed in bold text (basic applications).
For universal applications (chilled ceiling, etc.), refer to section 3.6.6.
For comp
ressor applications, refer to subection 3.6.7.

3.5 Additional functions
The heating / cooling changeover information can be received via bus. This is only
possible if the control sequence is set to automatic heating / cooling changeover
(parameter P01 = 3) and no local input X1, X2 is assigned with this function.
In the absence of the required information (e.g. due to problems with data
communication, power failure, etc.), the thermostat operates in the last valid room
operating mode (heating or cooling).
If a cable temperature sensor (QAH11.1 + ARG86.3) is connected to X1 / X2, and
parameter P38 / P40 is =2, the water temperature acquired by the changeover
sensor is used to change over from heating to cooling mode, or vice versa. When
the water temperature is above 28 °C (parameter P37), the thermostat changes
over to heating mode, and to cooling mode when below 16 °C (parameter P36).
If the water temperature is between the 2 changeover points immediately after
power-up, the thermostat starts in the previously active mode.
The water temperature is acquired at 30-second intervals and the operating state is
updated accordingly.

If manual hea
ting / cooling changeover is commissioned (P01 = 2), then heating /
cooling mode cannot be changed via bus / changover sensor / switch; it will remain
in the last mode as selected locally via button.
The thermostat acquires the room temperature via built-in sensor, external room
temperature sensor (QAA32), or external return air temperature sensor (QAH11.1)
connected to multifunctional input X1 or X2.
Inputs X1 or X2 must be commissioned accordingly. See section 3.9 “Multi-

The changeover sensor ensures changeover from heating to cooling mode based
on the acquired water temperature. We recommend activating the “Purge” function
(parameter P50) with 2-port valves. This function ensures correct acquisition of the
medium temperature even if the 2-port valve is closed for an extended period of
time. The valve is then opened for 1 to 5 minutes (adjustable) at 2-hour intervals
during off hours.
The “Purge” function (parameter P50) must be disabled if the thermostat is used in
compressor-based applications.
In very warm and humid climates, the fan can be run periodically or continuously at
a low fan speed (e.g. in empty apartments or shops) in Economy mode by setting
parameter P61, in order to avoid damage from moisture due to lack of air
circulation. See also section 3.8 “Fan control”, under “Fan kick function”.
Limit the ON/
OFF switching cycle to protect the HVAC equipment, e.g. compressor
and reduce wear and tear. The minimum output on-time and off-time for 2-position
control output can be adjusted from 1 to 20 minutes via parameters P48 and P49.
The factory setting is 1 minute.
Readjusting the setpoint or heating / cooling mode changeover immediately results
in calculation of the output state; the outputs may not hold the minimum 1-minute
ON/OFF time.
If parameter P48 or P49 is set to above 1 minute, the minimum ON/OFF time for
the control output is maintained as set, even if the setpoint or changeover mode is
readjusted.
All heating sequences can also be used for floor heating.
You can use fan coil unit heating / cooling sequences for floor heating or cooling by
disabling the fan via parameter P52.
The floor temperature should be limited for 2 reasons: Comfort and protection of
the floor.
The floor temperature sensor, connected to multifunctional input X1 or X2, acquires
the floor temperature. If the temperature exceeds the parameterized limit (parame-
ter P51), the heating valve is fully closed until the floor temperature drops to a level
2 K below the parameterized limit.
This function is factory-set to OFF (disabled).
Input X1 or X2 must be commissioned accordingly (P38 or P40 = 1).
See section 3.9 “Multifunctional input”.

Dew point monitoring is essential to prevent condensation on the chilled ceiling
(cooling with fan disabled, parameter P52). It helps avoid associated damage to
the building.
A dew point sensor with a potential-free contact is connected to multifunctional
input X1 or X2. If there is condensation, the cooling valve is fully closed until no
more condensation is detected, and the cooling output is disabled temporarily.
The condensation symbol “
” is displayed during temporary override and the fault
“Condensation in room” will be sent via bus.
The input must be commissioned accordingly (P38, P40).
See section 3.9 “Multifunctional input”.
If the “Button
lock” function is enabled by parameter P14, the buttons will be locked
or unlocked by pressing the operating mode button for 3 seconds.
If “Auto lock” is configured, the thermostat will automatically lock the buttons 10 /

The state (heating or cooling) of the thermostat can be monitored with the ACS tool
(diagnostic value “Control sequence”). The last active mode is displayed when the
thermostat is in the dead zone or temperature control is disabled.
With a 2 pipe application, the control sequence state is determined by the
application mode (see section 3.6.2) and by the state of the heating / cooling

3.6.4 2-pipe fan coil unit with electric heater
On 2-pipe applications with electric heater, the thermostat controls a valve in
heating / cooling mode with changeover, heating only, or cooling only plus an
auxiliary electric heater.
Cooling only is factory-set (P01 = 1) with enabled electric heater (P13).
In cooling mode, the valve receives an OPEN command if the acquired tempera-
ture is above the setpoint.
The electric heater receives an ON command if the acquired room temperature
drops below “setpoint” minus “dead zone” (= setpoint for electric heater) while the
electric heater is enabled (parameter P13 = ON).
Note: “Setpoint for electric heater” is limited by parameter “Maximum setpoint for
Comfort mode” (P10).
In heating mode, the valve receives an OPEN command if the acquired tempera-
ture is below the setpoint. The electric heater is used as an additional heating
source when the heating energy controlled by the valve is insufficient.
The electric heater receives an ON command, if the temperature is below “setpoint”
minus “setpoint differential” (= setpoint for electric heater).
The electric heater is active in heating mode only and the control output for the
valve is permanently disabled when manual changeover is selected (P01 = 2).
Remote enabling / disabling of the electric heater is possible via input X1 or X2 for
tariff regulations, energy savings, etc.
Input X1 or X2 must be commissioned accordingly (parameters P38, P40). See
section 3.9 “Multifunctional input”.
The ele
ctric heater can also be enabled / disabled via bus.
If “Enable electric heater” input is used via bus, then the function must not be
assigned to a local input X1 or X2.
An electric heater must always be protected by a safety limit thermostat!

3.6.5 4-pipe fan coil unit
On 4-pipe applications, the thermostat controls 2 valves in heating and cooling
mode, heating / cooling mode by manual selection, or heating and cooling mode
with changeover. Heating and cooling mode (P01 = 4) is factory-set.
The heating or cooling output can be released via operating mode button if
parameter P01 is set to Manual (P01 = 2).
If parameter P01 is set to changeover (P01 = 3), the heating and cooling output is
swapped according to the input state of the changeover sensor / switch / bus input
(see automatic heating and cooling changeover sensor in section 3.5). This mode
is used for th
e so-called “Main and secondary” application. This is a 4-pipe fan coil
unit system with different capacities of the 2 coils. The water circuit is changed to
optimize the energy exchange depending on the season (summer / winter):
– Winter: Large coil (V1) for heating, small coil (V2) for cooling
– Summer: Large coil (V1) for cooling, small coil (V2) for heating

On changeover applications, the Comfort setpoints for heating and cooling
sequence are the same (w).
On 2-pipe applications with electric heater, the Comfort setpoint is either at the first
heating sequence (in heating mode) or at the cooling sequence (in cooling mode).
The setpoints for Economy and Protection mode are below the Comfort setpoints
(heating) and above the Comfort setpoints (cooling).
They can be set via parameters P11, P12 (Economy mode) and P65, P66

*) Only on 2-pipe application
In the ACS tool, Y11 and Y21 are called Y1 and Y2.
The valve or compressor receives the OPEN/ON command via control output Y11
or Y21 when…
1. the acquired room temperature is below the setpoint (heating mode) or above
the setpoint (cooling mode).
2. the control outputs have been inactive for more than the “Minimum output
OFF-time” (factory setting 1 minute, adjustable via parameter P48).
OFF command when…
1. the acquired room temperature is above the setpoint (heating mode) or below
the setpoint (cooling mode).
2. the valve has been active for more than the “Minimum output on-time” (factory
setting 1 minute, adjustable via parameter P49).
The electric heater receives an ON command via the auxiliary heating control
output (Y…, see Mounting Instructions) when…
1. the acquired room temperature is below the “Setpoint for electric heater”
2. the electric heater has been switched off for at least 1 minute
The OFF command for the electric heater is output when…
1. the acquired room temperature is above the setpoint (electric heater)
2. the electric heater has been switched on for at least 1 minute
A safety limit thermostat (to prevent overtemperatures) must be provided externally.
Output Y11 provides the OPEN command, and Y21 the CLOSE command to the 3-
position actuator.
The factory setting for the actuator's running time is 150 seconds. It can be
adjusted via parameter P44.
The parameter is only visible if 3-position is selected via DIP switches.
1. When the thermostat is powered up, a closing command for the actuator
running time + 150% is provided to ensure that the actuator fully closes and
synchronizes to the control algorithm.
2. When the thermostat calculates the positions "fully close" or "fully open", the
actuator's running time is extended + 150% to ensure the right actuator
position is synchronized to the control algorithm.
3. After the actuator reaches the position calculated by the thermostat, a waiting
time of 30 seconds is applied to stabilize the outputs.

The type of the control outputs on 2-pipe applications (2- or 3-position) is set via
DIP switches (see section 3.4).
The DIP
switches have no impact if the application is commissioned via tool.
Control outputs need to be set via ACS in this case.

3.8 Fan control
The fan operates in automatic mode or at the selected speed with manual mode.
In automatic mode, the fan speed depends on the setpoint and the current room
temperature. When the room temperature reaches the setpoint, the control valve
closes and the fan switches off or stays at fan speed 1 (parameter P60).
Factory setting for P60:
RDF600KN fan Off in dead zone
RDF301... fan speed1 in dead zone
The fan speed and mode can be changed via bus.
For this purpose, the fan command value needs to be enabled.
The fan speed and mode can be monitored via bus.
The individual switching points for ON of each fan stage can be adjusted via control
parameters P55…P57. The fan speed switch off point is 20% below the switch on
point. The diagrams below show fan speed control for modulating PI control.

The thermostat can control a 1- or 3-speed fan (selected via control parameter
P53). A 1-speed fan is connected to terminal Q1, a 3-speed fan to terminals Q1,
Q2 and Q3.
Fan operation can be limited to be active with cooling only or heating only, or even
be totally disabled via control parameter “Fan operation” P52.
When fan operation is disabled, the fan symbol on the display disappears and
pressing the fan button has no impact.
This function allows you to use the thermostat on universal applications such as
chilled / heated ceilings and radiator, etc. (see section 3.6.6).
In automatic
mode, a dwelling time of 2 minutes (factory setting) is active. The fan
maintains each speed for at least 2 minutes before it changes to the next speed.
This minimum on-time can be adjusted from 1…6 minutes via parameter P59.
In automatic fan mode and with the room temperature in the dead zone, the control
valve is normally closed and the fan disabled. With the “Fan kick” function, the fan
can be released from time to time at low speed for minimum on-time (see above)
even if the valve is closed.
This function can be used to avoid damage from moisture due to a lack of air circu-
lation, or to allow a return air temperature sensor to acquire the correct room
temperature.

Note: Fan kick value “0” means the fan runs continuously in the dead zone.
Fan kick value “OFF” means the fan does not run in the dead zone.
When the fan starts from standstill, it starts at speed 3 for 1 second to ensure safe

When the electric heater is switched off, the fan overruns for 60 seconds
(parameter P54) to avoid overtemperature of the electric heater or prevent the
thermal cutout from responding.
In case of fan failure, the thermostat cannot protect the electric heater against
overtemperature. For this reason, the electric heater must feature a separate safety
device (thermal cutout).
The “Clean fan filter reminder” function counts the fan operating hours and displays
message “FIL
“ to remind the user to clean the fan filter as soon as the threshold
is reached. This does not impact the thermostat's operation, which continues to run
normally. The function is set via parameter P62 (default = Off (0)).
The “Clean filter reminder” is reset when the operating mode is manually set to
Protection and back.
In Auto Timer mode
, the default fan mode is automatic. The fan mode can be
changed to Manual by pressing the FAN button. The fan returns to the automatic
default mode after each switchover from Comfort to Economy mode, and vice
versa.

Operational action can be changed between normally open (NO) and normally
closed (NC) via parameter P39, P41
Each input X1 or X2 must be configured with a different function (1…5).
Exception: 1 or 2 inputs can be configured as fault (6) or monitor input (7,8)
X1 is factory-set to “Operating mode switchover” (3), X2 to “External sensor”
(1)
For more detailed information, refer to section 3.4 “Applications”.
3.10 Handling faults
When the room temperature is outside the measuring range, i.e. above 49 °C or
below 0 °C, the limiting temperatures blink, e.g. “0 °C” or “49 °C”.
In addition, the heating output is activated if the current setpoint is not set to “OFF”,
the thermostat is in heating mode and the temperature is below 0 °C.
For all other cases, no output is activated.
The thermostat resumes Comfort mode after the temperature returns to within the
measuring range.
For fault status messages on the bus, see section 3.11.8.
In the event of a power fail
ure, all working conditions (operating mode, setpoint, fan
stage, all control parameter settings) are stored without time limitation.
When power returns, the thermostat reloads this data and continues to work in the
same conditions as before.

3.11 KNX communications
The RDF KNX thermostats support communications as per the KNX specification.
S-mode Standard mode; engineering via group addresses.
LTE mode Logical Tag Extended mode, for easy engineering,
is used in conjunction with Synco.
3.11.1 S-mode
This mode corresponds to KNX communications.
Connections are established via ETS by assigning communication objects to group
addresses.
3.11.2 LTE mode
LTE mode was specifically designed to simplify engineering. Unlike with S-mode,
there is no need to create the individual connections (group addresses) in the tool.
The devices autonomously establish connections.
To make this possible, the following circumstances are predefined:
Every device or subdevice is located within a zone
Every data point (input or output) is assigned to a zone
Every data point (input or output) has a precisely defined "name"
Whenever an output and an input with the same "name" are located in the same
zone, a connection is established automatically, as shown in the following diagram.

LTE zones, filter tables, etc.), see "Communication via the KNX bus for Synco
700, 900 and RXB/RXL, Basic Documentation" [6]
LTE mode data points and settings are described in the Synco Application
Manual [12]
To engineer and commission a specific system, use the Synco700 planning and
commissioning protocol (XLS table in HIT, [7])
3.11.3 Zone addressing in LTE mode
(in conjunction with Synco)
In cases where RDF KNX room thermostats are used in LTE mode (e.g. in
conjunction with Synco), zone addresses need to be allocated.
The following zone address must be defined together with the Synco devices at the
planning stage depending on the application.
Short description Factory setting Parameter
Geographical zone (apartment) --- (out of service) P82
Geographical zone (room) 1 P83
Heat distr zone heating coil 1 P84
Refr distr zone cooling coil 1 P85
Note: “Subzone” of “Geographical zone” is fix 1 (not adjustable)
The device will send and receive LTE communication signals only if the zone
address is valid (not OSV = out of service).

The zones to be defined are as follows:
Geographical zone
(space zone)
(Apartment . Room . Subzone)
Apartment = ---, 1...126
Room = ---, 1...63
Subzone = fix 1
Zone in which an RDF KNX thermostat is physically located. Other
room-specific devices may also be located in this zone.
Information exchanged in this zone is related specifically to the device
like operating mode, setpoints, room temperature, etc.
The designations "Apartment", "Room" and "Subzone" do not need to
be taken literally. For example, Apartment can be used to refer to a
group of rooms, floor or section of a building. ”Room", however, really
does refer to a room.
Subzone is not used for HVAC devices. It is more relevant to other
disciplines, such as lighting. Subzone is fix at “1” and not visible.
The time switch information is expected from the same zone where
the thermostat is located (Residential).
If no time switch information is received from the same zone, the
thermostat will use the information received from the same apartment
but with room “1“ A.1.1 (Office).
Example:
Commercial building
In a commercial building, the
time switch information is sent by
the RMB795 central control unit.
The zones are divided in so
called “Room groups” (e.g. 1...4),
where each “Room group” can
have an individual schedule. A
room thermostat in the same
“Room group” need to have the
same Apartment Address.

3.11.5 Send heartbeat and receive timeout
In a KNX network, S-mode and LTE mode communication objects can be exchanged
between individual devices. The
Receive timeout defines the period of time within
which all the communication objects requested from a device must have been
received at least once. If a communication object is not received within this period, a
predefined value is used.
Similarly, the
Send heartbeat defines the period of time within which all the commu-
nication objects requested must be transmitted at least once.
Fixed times are specified as follows:
– Receive timeout: 31 minutes
– Send heartbeat: 15 minutes
Individual zones can also be disabled (out of service) via control parameter if they
are not being used. In disabled zones, the LTE signal will no longer be periodically
sent, and will therefore reduce bus load.
3.11.6 Startup
The application is restarted after every reset, so that all the connected motorized
valve actuators are synchronized (see "Control outputs", 3.7).
Af
ter a reset, it takes up to 5 minutes for all the connected room thermostats to
restart. This is designed to avoid overloading the mains power supply when
restarting. At the same time, it reduces the load on the KNX network, as not all
thermostats transmit data at the same time. The delay (T
WaitDevice
) is determined by
the thermostat's device address. After the delay, the device starts to send.
3.11.7 Heating and cooling demand
In conjunction with Synco, the heating and/or cooling demand from each room is
transmitted to the BACS to provide the required heating or cooling energy.
An example for LTE mode is described in section 3.11.4.
In S-mode, th
e current state signals of the control outputs are available.

3.11.8 Fault function on KNX
If a fault occurs (e.g. digital fault input, dew point, communication configuration,
etc.) then a fault will be sent on the bus.
An RDF thermostat listens on the bus and sends its fault when the fault has the
highest alarm priority. This ensures that the management station does not miss any
alarms.
If alarms occur at the same time, the alarm with the highest priority will be first
displayed and sent on the bus.
Fault transmission is different in LTE mode and S-mode:

Priority order is #1…6
External faults #4…5: If faults are active, the display will show AL1, AL2,
alternating. On the bus, only the fault with the highest priority will be sent
A supervisor alarm system may command the thermostat to stop sending faults to
the bus via the communication object “Fault transmission” (disable / enable).
This has no impact on the local display of faults.
After a timeout of 48 hours, the sending of faults will automatically be enabled
again.

3.13 Control parameters
A number of control parameters can be readjusted to optimize control performance.
This can be done on the thermostat via HMI or via commissioning / operating tool.
These parameters can also be set during operation without opening the unit.
In the event of a power failure, all control parameter settings are retained, see page 45.
The co
ntrol parameters are assigned to 2 levels:
Service level”, and
“Expert level” including communications, diagnostics and test
The “Service level” contains a small set of parameters to set up the thermostat for
the HVAC system and to adjust the user interface. These parameters can be
adjusted any time.
Change parameters at the “Expert level” carefully, as they impact the thermostat’s
control performance and functionality.

3.13.2 Parameter setting / download via tool
Control parameters can be adjusted via bus either by parameter download during
commissioning or during normal operation with a tool like ACS.
With the ACS tool, the parameters can be changed…
– during commissioning via parameter download (all parameters)
– during normal operation via Popcard (most of the parameters)
Most parameters can be changed during normal operation using the OZW772 web
server or the RMZ792 bus operator unit.
ETS is an engineering tool and can be used for the full commissioning of the RDF
KNX thermostats. Device address, application, control parameters and parameters
for the switching groups can be defined and downloaded via ETS
Setting RDF KNX parameters is only supported by ETS4 or higher / ACS version
5.11 or higher.
The RDF KNX thermostats (without ETS parameter download) require version
ETS3f or higher
Connecting a KNX commissioning / operating tool to the RDF is described in

4. Handling
4.1 Mounting and installation
Mount the room thermostat on the conduit box. Do not mount on a wall in niches or
bookshelves, behind curtains, above or near heat sources, or exposed to direct
solar radiation. Mount about 1.5 m above the floor.
Mounting /
dismounting
Mount the room thermostat in a clean, dry indoor place without direct airflow
from a heating / cooling device, and not exposed to dripping or splash water
RDF301... :In case of limited space in the conduit box, use mounting bracket
ARG70.3 to increase the headroom by 10 mm
Before removing the front cover, disconnect the power supply.
Wiring
See Mounting Instructions enclosed with the thermostat.
M3171... [3], M3076.1 [3a]
Comply with local regulations to wire, fuse and earth the thermostat
Properly size the cables to the thermostat, fan and valve actuators for AC 230
V mains voltage
Use only valve actuators rated for AC 230 V
The AC 230 V mains supply line must have an external fuse or circuit breaker
with a rated current of no more than 10 A
Cables of SELV inputs X1-M/X2-M: Use cables with 230 V insulation, as the
conduit box carries AC 230 V mains voltage.
Inputs X1-M or X2-M: Several switches (e.g. summer / winter switch) may be
connected in parallel. Consider overall maximum contact sensing current for
switch rating
KNX communication cables (input CE+ / CE-): Use cables with 230 V
insulation, as the conduit box carries AC 230 V mains voltage
No metal conduits
No cables provided with a metal sheath

4.2 Commissioning
The room thermostats are delivered with a fixed set of applications.
Select and activate the relevant application during commissioning using one of the
following tools:
– Local DIP switch and HMI
– Synco ACS
– ETS
Set the DIP switches before snapping the front panel to the mounting plate, if you
want to select an application via DIP switches.
All DIP switches need to be set to “OFF” (remote configuration), if you want to
select an application via commissioning tool.
After power is applied, the thermostat resets and all LCD segments flash, indicating
that the reset was correct. After the reset, which takes about 3 seconds, the
thermostat is ready for commissioning by qualified HVAC staff.
If all DIP switches are OFF, the display reads "NONE" to indicate that application
commissioning via a tool is required.
Each time the application is changed, the thermostat reloads the factory setting for
all control parameters, except for KNX device and zone addresses!
Connect the Synco ACS or ETS tools to the KNX bus cable at any point for
commissioning:

The thermostat's control parameters can be set to ensure optimum performance of
the entire system.
The parameters can be adjusted using
– Local HMI
– Synco ACS
– ETS
Commissioning of switching groups for RDF301.50 is only possible with ETS).
The control parameters of the thermostat can be set to ensure optimum
performance of the entire system (see section 3.13, control parameters).
The control sequence may need to be set via parameter P01 depending on the
application. The factory setting is as follows:
Application Factory setting P01
2-pipe and chilled / heated ceiling 1 = cooling only
4-pipe, chilled ceiling and radiator 4 = heating and cooling
When the thermostat is used with a compressor, adjust the minimum output on-
time (parameter P48) and OFF-time (parameter P49) for Y11/Y21 to avoid
damaging the compressor or shortening its life due to frequent switching
Recalibrate the temperature sensor if the room temperature displayed on the
thermostat does not match the room temperature measured (after min. 1 hour of
operation). To do this, change parameter P05
We recommend to review the setpoints and setpoint ranges (parameters
P08…P12) and change them as needed to achieve maximum comfort and save
energy
The programming mode helps identify the thermostat in the KNX network during
commissioning.
Press buttons “operating mode”
and “+” simultaneously for 6 sec to activate
programming mode, which is indicated on the display with "PrO
g
".
Programming mode remains active until thermostat identification is complete.
Use ETS to assign the KNX group addresses of the thermostat's communication
objects.
RDF301.50 has 2 switching groups with a pair of buttons each, which must be
configured via ETS. The switching groups only work in S-mode.
Each device has a unique KNX serial number inside the front panel. An additional
sticker with the same KNX serial number is enclosed in the packaging box. This
sticker is intended for installers for documentation purposes.

5.2.3 Operation and monitoring with OZW772
The OZW772 web server enables users to operate a Synco HVAC system from a
remote location – via PC, or from a smart phone – using the HomeControl app.
A start page shows the most important data points. A combination of menu / path
navigation enables users to access all data points quickly and straightforwardly.
The entire installation can be visualized in the form of plant diagrams. Alarm and
state messages can be forwarded to different message receivers, such as e-mail,
SMS, etc.
For details, see Commissioning Instructions CE1C5701.
5.2.4 Operation and monitoring with RMZ972
The RMZ792 is a communicating operator unit
designed for operating Synco™ 700 and RDF
KNX devices in a KNX network.
The operator unit is suited both for fixed
installation and mobile use (e.g. for use by the
service engineer).
Third-party devices cannot be operated with it.
For details, see Basic Documentation CE1P3113.
The application cannot be displayed in the form of text, instead a number is used:
(Parameter Plant type on menu Basic setting):
0 = no application
1 = 2-pipe
2 = 2-pipe and electric heater
4 = 4-pipe
