• Only an authorised electrician may open the device.
• Disconnect external voltages and secure against activation.
• Only use the product if it is in flawless state.
• Do not operate the device without device cover.
• This unit is not intended to be used by persons (including children) with restricted physical, sensory or
mental skills or who lack experience or knowledge. If necessary, these persons must be supervised by
a person responsible for their safety or receive instructions from this person on how to use this unit.
• Ensure that children do not play with this device or its packaging. Children must be monitored if
necessary.
• In case of emergency, disconnect the complete room-by-room temperature control system.
• Observe the performance limits of the device and its environmental conditions.
• Lay the cables of connected consumers in a way that they do not lead to dangers (e. g. trip hazards)
for persons and pets.
• Only operate the device in a dry and dust-free environment.
• Do not expose the device to the influence of humidity, vibration, continuous solar radiation or other
types of radiation, coldness or mechanical load.
The Alpha IP base station serves for the room-by-room control of a floor heating system. The base sta-
tion registers and processes the registered target and actual temperatures of connected Alpha IP room
control units. According to this information, the rooms are always set to the specified temperature via
the connected thermal actuators. As an option, a recirculation pump is connected to the base station
to be controlled or supplied with energy by the station (depending on the model).
The range inside buildings can be strongly different from the range in open air.
Communication with other components is performed via the Homematic (HmIP) radio protocol. Radio
transmission is realised on a non-exclusive transmission path; thus, interference cannot be completely
excluded. Interference can be caused e. g. by switching processes, electric motors or defective electric
appliances.
