1.1 Description Wireless humidity sensor
Intended and unintended use
This manual is about the Wireless humidity sensor (See E in image below).
The Wireless humidity sensor should only be used in combination with products that have been approved by Brink
Climate Systems B.V.
The Wireless humidity sensor can only be used together with a wireless controller for controlling a HRU
appliance which is equipped with a USB connection!
The Wireless humidity sensor is extension for a wireless remote control to operate your ventilation system.
Brink supplies a range of wireless remote controls/sensors that make contact with a heat recovery unit by means
of a USB transceiver. This range consists of the 5 following types of wireless controls/ sensors (A, B, C, D & E):
A.
Wireless Controller A.
B. Wireless Controller with B.
build-in CO
2
-sensor
C. Wireless Controller with C.

connection (for example
HRU appliance type Flair)
Wireless humidity sensor 616860-B Brink / 3

The Wireless humidity sensor must always be used with a transceiver on the HRU appliance; a combination of
multiple remote controllers on 1 USB transceiver is possible.
In total, a maximum combination of 12 controllers /sensors can be connected to 1 transceiver (Max. 4
controllers / max. 4 CO2-sensors and max 4 humidity sensors).
Note: A controller with a build-in CO2- sensor is seen as an CO2-sensor and a controller with a build-in humidity
sensor will be seen as an humidity sensor.
When one or more sensors/ controllers are connected to the HRU appliance, it will ventilate according to the set
conditions of the connected wireless sensor(s).
If multiple controllers /sensors are used, the controller / sensor that requests the highest ventilation level always
has priority.
The air flow quantities associated with the ventilation settings must always be set on the connected appliance
and cannot be adjusted on the Wireless humidity sensor. For ventilation settings, see the installation manual of
the relevant connected HRU appliance.

3 Assembly
3.1 Mounting Wireless humidity sensor on the wall
You should perform the step1 to step 4 to assemble the Wireless humidity sensor.
An example of a wireless controller is shown in this section, but other wireless controllers/sensors are
assembled in the same way.
Step 1
The wall bracket can be attached to a flush mount electrical box (Ø 55 mm) or can be directly mounted on
the wall with supplied double sided adhesive tape. Mounting on a electrical box is only necessary when a
permanent power supply (option) is used. The Wireless humidity sensor should be placed at a height of
approximately 1.65 meters above the floor.
▪Screw or glue the wall bracket onto the wall in the▪
correct position.
Take note!
The up arrow on the wall bracket must point
upwards!

Step 2
Remove the plastic isolation strip from the battery.
Step 3
Click the Wireless humidity sensor (A) together with
supplied frame (B) on the wall bracket (C).
After mounting the Wireless humidity sensor on the
wall bracket remove the foil from the front.
Step 4
When the Wireless humidity sensor has been fitted on the wall the
USB transceiver can be placed in the USB port of the appliance which
must be connected with the Wireless humidity sensor. To connect the
USB transceiver with HRU appliance see ®.

3.2 Remove Wireless humidity sensor from wall bracket
For removing the Wireless humidity sensor from the wall bracket
grasp the front of the Wireless humidity sensor by edges and gently
pull away from wall.
An example of a wireless controller is shown in this section, but other
wireless controllers/sensors can be removed from the wall bracket in
the same way.
3.3 Connecting the AC/DC converter (option)
Warning!
At all times disconnect the 230 V. power supply when connecting the AC/DC converter.
When using the optional AC/DC converter, the wall bracket must be attached to a electrical wall box (Ø 55 mm).

4 Put into use
4.1 Connecting additional Wireless humidity sensor with USB
Transceiver (Pairing)
The Wireless humidity sensor can be used as an extension to a set of wireless
controller and a USB transceiver.
When the Wireless humidity sensor is mounted on the wall and the USB transceiver is
placed in the HRU (see image on the right), the Wireless humidity sensor can be
connected (pairing). Follow the steps as described below:
Step 1
Apply main power supply to the HRU appliance.
Step 2
Press the pairing button of the USB transceiver (>2 sec & < 10 sec).
The green LED on the USB transceiver starts flashing (1x per second). The
pairing mode is active for 10 minutes.
Step 3
Press any of the invisible buttons on the Wireless humidity sensor.
The LED's (5 pcs) will flash (0,5 sec. ON and 5 sec. OFF); max time 5
minutes.
Step 4
Press the pairing button ( >2 sec & < 10 sec) on the bottom
of the controller (through a small hole), for example with
the end of a paper clip.
Pairing enabled when the LEDs (4 pcs) light
in turn (0.5 sec. ON and next will ON when
previous is OFF).
Pairing disabled ; go back to step 3.

Step 5
For configure a "note ID" button 1 on the wireless controller with humidity
sensor. For example press invisible button 2; LED 2 will flash once.
When there are more wireless controllers or wireless sensors to connect
with the device, press different (invisible) button; the number of the button is
also the number of connected accessories in the menu of the device. If
pairing is not successful go back to Step 4. Check also the USB transceiver.
The air flowquantities associated with the ventilation settings must always be set on the connected HRU
appliance and cannot be adjusted on the Wireless humidity sensor
For settings Wireless humidity sensor ( To switch on and set the sensitivity of the humidity sensor), see the
installation manual of the relevant connected HRU appliance; this setting applies to all connected humidity
sensors.

4.2 Back to factory setting Wireless humidity sensor
It is possible to set the Wireless humidity sensor back to factory settings.
Perform the following actions for both controller(s) and the USB transceiver:
Factory setting controller
▪Press the pairing button (for example with end of a paper▪
clip) for more than 20 seconds.
▪To confirm this reset all LED's will flash two times.▪
▪All the pairing information has been deleted from the▪
Wireless humidity sensor.
Factory setting USB transceiver
▪Press the button for more than 20 seconds.▪
▪To confirm this reset the green LED will flash two times.▪
▪All the pairing information has been deleted from the▪
USB transceiver.

5 Maintenance
5.1 General maintenance
Careful!
Clean the screen with a soft cloth.
Never apply water and/or (cleaning) liquid to the screen.
5.2 Replace battery
Replace battery
If there is no response to the operation of the buttons and the LED no
longer lights up if buttons are operated, the battery voltage is too low.
(Not applicable if the optional 230 volt power supply interface is used.)
Replace battery with correct type CR2032.MRF battery manufacturer
Renata (or Panasonic CR-2032/BS ).
Pay attention to the position of the battery! The text marked "+" must
always be legible after inserting the battery.
For replacing battery take Wireless humidity sensor from the wall
bracket (see ®Remove Wireless humidity sensor from wall bracket
page 8).
