3Description of the device
The FloorControl RT05 programmable thermostat is a compact device
with a display that allows precise programmming of the temperature
in a room or rooms according to the day and time. The use of
FloorControl RT05 in a room provides thermal comfort and reduces
unnecessary heat loss.
FloorControl RT05 is available in two versions: battery powered
(2xAAA) and supplied with 230 V AC mains voltage.
The FloorControl RT05 room thermostat is dedicated to the
FloorControl WB01 D-8 underfloor heating wiring box to control the
floor heating system.
The FloorControl RT05 thermostat may be used to control a heating
or cooling device, such as a gas or electric boiler.
The RT05 thermostat consists of the main part with display and a rear
part for mounting in a mounting box. The rear part can be
disconnected by turning it counterclockwise (OPEN arrow). The rear
part can be reattached by inserting it into the main part and locking it
in place when turned clockwise (CLOSE arrow).

The FloorControl RT05 programmable thermostat, battery-powered
version (Art. No. 86 020), may be connected to both versions of the
WB01 D-8 underfloor heating wiring box
(230 V AC - Art. No. 86 013 or 24 V DC - Art. No. 86 014).
The FloorControl RT05 programmable thermostat supplied with 230 V
AC mains voltage (Art. No. 86 019) can only be connected to a wiring
box supplied with 230 V AC mains voltage (Art. No. 86 013).

3.3. Operation
The FloorControl RT05 programmable room thermostatis designed to
maintain the desired room temperature. When the room temperature
drops below the programmed value, the thermostat opens the contact,
sending a signal to the heating device or the wiring box of the
FloorControl underfloor heating control system to increase it. In
cooling mode, the situation is reversed –if the room temperature rises
above the programmed value, the thermostat closes the contact,
thus sending a signal to the cooling unit to lower it.
The thermostat's advanced software allows it to operate in the
following modes:
weekly mode
- control on a weekly schedule,
day/night mode
- working in a day/night programme,
manual mode
- keeping the room temperature setpoint constant.

transport.
Do not throw the device.
Protect against soaking, moisture, dirt and dust.
NOTE Possible damage to the during improper storage.
Store the device in a dry and clean room.
Protect against soaking, moisture, dirt and dust.
5Assembly and start-up
The RT05 thermostat's mounting location must provide protection
from the weather. The RT05 thermostat must not be installed
outdoors.

FloorControl RT05 programmable room thermostat 13
The RT05 thermostat is designed for wall mounting using a standard
Ø60 mm flush-mounted electrical junction box. It cannot be mounted
on a base or placed directly on a finished wall.
NOTE Possible damage to existing installations
When making openings in walls, special care must be
taken not to damage electrical cables or other existing
wires.
5.1. Wall mounting
Check whether the wall is strong and thick enoughand whether the RT05
thermostat will fit in the place of your choosing. Then place and fix a Ø60
mm electrical box in the opening. Disconnect the rear of the thermostat
(see chapter 3) from its main part by slightly turning it counterclockwise.
Fix the rear part to the box using the holes A, B or A and B (depending
on the type and the method of mounting the electrical box) marked in
Figure 7. Snap the main part of the thermostat onto the rear part by
slightly turning it clockwise.
Figure 7: Mounting holes
5.2. First start-up
Before the first start up:
1. Connect the thermostat with the corresponding wiring box
WB01 D-8 or heating device according to section 5.3.
Applies to the battery version:
2. Insert the batteries into the rear of the thermostat
Applies to the 230 V version:
2. Connect the power supply according to section 5.3
3. Install the thermostat in the wall in accordance with section
5.1.

14 FloorControl RT05 programmable room thermostat
5.3. Electrical connections
Make sure that the power supply is disconnected and secured against
accidental switching.
Observe health and safety regulations and other accident prevention
regulations. All applicable national legislation must also be complied
with. Applies to the 230 V version:
The FloorControl RT05 room thermostatis connected to 230
V AC.
______________________________ ________________
WARNING Do not allow the thermostat and electrical
cables to come into contact with water.
__ ________________
5.3.1.Connections to the WB01 D-8 box
Only one room thermostat can be assigned to a given zone on the
FloorControl WB01 D-8 box.
Make the connections to the box as shown in Figure 8, 9 or 10,
depending on your version.

5.3.2.Compatibility with WB01 D-8 wiring boxes
The 230V version of RT05 thermostat can be connected only to the
WB01-D8-230V box, while the battery version can be connected
both to the WB01-D8-230 box and to the WB01-D8-24 box. To
properly recognize your thermostat version refer to section 3.4.
5.3.3.Connections to other heating devices
The RT05 thermostat can be used to control (on/off) other heating or
cooling device such as a gasboiler. To control other heating devices,
we recommend using the battery version of FloorControl RT05
programmable thermostat (see section 3.4).
Such a connection should be made in accordance with the manual
of the heater you want to control.
Formost gas boilers, control isby potential-freecontact.Thiscontact
is previously bridged. You should:
1. Remove the bridge (the element shorting the two control
contacts).
2. Connect the two wires in place of the bridge.
3. Connect the wire to the thermostat connections
according to the following diagram.

6.2. Operating modes
The FloorControl RT05 room thermostat can operate in one of the
three operating modes described below (Chapters 9.2.1 to 9.2.3).
6.2.1.Manual mode
In manual mode, the temperature is set directly from the main screen.
Use the and buttons to set it.
Manual mode is activated automatically by pressing one of these
buttons.
When manual mode is activated, it becomes the current mode only
until the nearest programmed setpoint temperature change of the
previously active mode.
Example: It's 5:10pm. The weekly mode is active with a comfort
temperature of 22ºC and a programmed energy-saving temperature
change to 19ºC at 11:00pm. When you press and set the temperature
to 24ºC, manual mode is activated as the current mode. The
temperature of 24ºC will be maintained until 11:00pm, when it will
change to 19ºC and return to weekly mode.
The current operation of manual mode as active mode is indicated
by the icon .

18 FloorControl RT05 programmable room thermostat
Figure 13: Example of the main screen during manual operation.
Manual mode can be deactivated by pressing .
6.2.2.Day/night
In day/night mode, the desired temperature depends on the time. The
user enters a separate setpoint temperature for day (comfort
temperature) and night (energy-saving temperature) and the exact
times when the controller will start the day (time with comfort
temperature) and night (time with energy-saving temperature).
To activate the day/night mode, press and the icon will
appear on the screen.

6.2.3.Weekly mode
In the weekly mode, the user determines at which times and on which
days comfort temperature will be maintained, and on which it will
switch to energy-saving.
FloorControl RT05 programmable room thermostat allows 9 different
programmes.
The programmes are divided into 3 main groups:
programmes 1÷3
By selecting programme 1, 2 or 3, daily settings are made for all days
of the week at once.
Example: Comfort temperature of 21ºC was set from 5pm to 10pm,
and energy-saving temperature of 19ºC from 10pm to 5pm the
following day. As a result, the RT05 thermostat will maintain 19ºC at
3:40pm regardless of the day of the week.
programmes 4÷6
By selecting programme 4, 5 or 6, daily settings are made
separately for working days (Monday-Friday) and
the weekend (Saturday-Sunday).
Example: A comfort temperature of 21ºC was set from 5pm to 10pm,
and energy-saving of 19ºC from 10pm to 5pm the following day on
working days; comfort temperature of 21ºC was set from 8am to 11pm,
and energy-saving of 19ºC from 11pm to 8am on the weekend. As a
result, the RT05 thermostat will maintain 19ºC at 3:40pm on working
days and 21ºC at the same time on Saturday and Sunday.
programmes 7÷9
By selecting programme 7, 8 or 9, the daily settings are made
separately for each day of the week.
Example: You can set independent hours of comfort and energy-
saving temperature separately for each day. On Wednesday, the
comfort temperature can be set between 5pm and 10pm, on Friday
between 4pm and midnight, and on Saturday between 7am and
midnight.
The weekly mode is activated by pressing which results in the
icon appearing on the home screen.
