2 System Overview
2.2 Operating principle
The hot water and cold water circulations contain valves of the types LegioThermK and
LegioTherm2T. The latter serves hydraulic alignment (circulation system).
Both circulations can be rinsed. The rinse water runs into a drain.
The LegioTherm valves are equipped with a temperature sensor.
All valves are connected with the master via power supply and communication cables serially
(i.e. not radial!), which also supplies them with power. The master controls the opening angle
of the valves according to its programming, taking into account the connected sensors and cre-
ates log data in the form of protocols.
After the valves are installed according to their operating instructions, they only must be con-
nected to Hycleen Automation power supply and communication cables. The power supplied
by the master via these connection cables. For cable lengths of more than 300 m and
additionalHycleen Automation Powerbox is required. Via its 2 cable connections, a master
with 2 power boxes can supply and control up to 1,000 m cable length.

3 Installation
3 Installation
The insulation of the valves must be removed for cabling the valves.
To remove the insulation, carefully pull apart both parts (1, 2). Make sure that the tem-
perature sensor cable is not detached or damaged.
Put the insulation aside for later assembly.
After assembling each valve, remove the detachable part (3) of the label from the valve and
stick it in the installation plan. This part contains information about the valve type, serial number
and size etc., and serves the subsequent identification of the valve in the installation plan.

3 Installation
3.1 Mounting master on the wall
The housing of the master is attached to the wall using 4 eyelets (1).
Drill 4 dowel holes with a diameter of 6 mm into the wall according to dimensional draw-
ing and insert the supplied dowels (2).
Use a Phillips screwdriver to screw on the master with the 4 screws provided (3).
3.2 Cabling master with valves
The connecting cables include 2 lines for the voltage supply and 2 signal lines. The two cable
ends are equipped with the same female plug-in connectors. They are secured to prevent rota-
tion and their M12 knurled screws ensure a reliable hold, even in harsh environments.
Non-approved components can cause malfunctions!
Components must not be modified and connecting cables or distributors for star topology
cabling must not be installed at any time!
Always interconnect master, valves and, where required, powerboxes in series, i.e.
one behind the other, to the components specified by the manufacturer!
10

3 Installation
Sub-standard assembly can cause malfunctions!
If the cabling is carried out with the power supply switched on, this could cause damage to
the electronic components!
Make sure that neither the master nor powerbox(es) are supplied with voltage while
cabling!
Connecting master
Connect one of the plugsof the connecting cable to the left M12 connection(1) of the
master and fasten the knurled screw. After that the M12 (2) connection can also be
used, for example, (1) for one side of the building, and (2) for the other side.
Close the open M12 connection on the last valve with a protection cap (8).
When switching on the master, the valves coming from the master are numbered auto-
matically, starting with the left line (1). The components of the right line (2) are then fur-
ther numbered directly afterwards.
11

3 Installation
Sub-standard assembly can cause malfunctions!
If no component is connected to the left connection (1), the master will ignore the
right connection (2) during the booting procedure after switching on.
When switching on the components, start with the left line (1)!
Connect power supply cable to the connection(7) of the master. The other elements are
reserved for service purposes: Ethernet connections(3), UPS connection(4), USB
connections(5), potential-free switching contacts (6).

3.3 Installing other components
Extending the connecting cable
Use the connector (6) for connecting two connecting cables in series.
Installing the Powerbox
In the case of cable lengths longer than 300m, switch a powerbox between two con-
necting cables. This way, the cable length can be extended by another 200 m to 500 m
maximum.
Connect the plug of the first connecting cable to one of the M12 plugs(9) of the power-
box and fasten with a knurled screw.
Connect the plug of the second connecting cable to the second M12 plug(9) of the
powerbox and fasten with a knurled screw.
Only insert the cold-device plug of the power cable into the connection (8) to begin the
startup of the system once all components have been correctly cabled.
The LED (7) of the powerbox lights up green.

3 Installation
Installing the temperature sensor
The external temperature sensor (3, 9952.000, PT1000) is delivered with a converter (2,
output 4 - 20 mA) and connecting cable (1).
Screw the temperature sensor (3) with its screw-in thread AG ¼" to the desired point of
the installation. Example: Installation to a JRG LegioStop inclined seat valve:
Under JRG number 9951.xxx the temperature sensor (3) is delivered fully pre-installed
on a red brass pipe section (6, DN 15 or DN 20), complete with matching insulation (7),
which also offers room for the converter (2).
With this variation, only the pipe section (6) is installed to an appropriate point of the
installation.
Position the converter (2) in the included insulation (7).
16

3 Installation
The external temperature sensor is connected to the controller of a valve (flushing or cal-
ibration valve), for this, connect the connection valve (1) to the M8 connection (8).
Using the above-shown extension cables (9, 9943.005) the connection of several exten-
sion cables of 5m each in series can bridge a distance of max. 50 m between the tem-
perature sensor and the valve. We recommend to always minimize the distance to the
valve.
Installing the run off monitoring system
The run off monitoring system (1) detects whether the water in the run off exceeds the
maximum level determined by the installation height of the sensor.
It is connected to the controller of a valve (flushing or calibration valve), for this, connect
the connection valve (1) to the M8 connection (8).
The Flushing function determines to which flushing valves the run off monitoring should
apply.
Using the above-shown extension cables (9, 9943.005) the connection of several exten-
sion cables of 5m each in series can bridge a distance of max. 50 m between the sensor
and the valve. We recommend to always minimize the distance to the valve.
17

3 Installation
Installing the flow sensor
The external flow sensor (1) measures the flow through the pipe section.
It is connected to the controller of a valve (flushing or calibration valve), for this, connect
the connection valve (1) to the M8 connection (8).
Using the above-shown extension cables (9, 9943.005) the connection of several exten-
sion cables of 5m each in series can bridge a distance of max. 50 m between the sensor
and the valve. We recommend to always minimize the distance to the valve.

4 Working with the master
4 Working with the master
The master allows the control and steering of all connected components.
It is protected from unauthorized access by a password: 137.
The available functions depend on the current configuration. A sample configuration is
described here.
4.1 Commissioning
The Hycleen Master starts automatically as soon as the voltage supply is switched on. A notice
then appears informing you that some settings first have to be performed. In this phase, all
valves supplied correctly with power flash blue and green alternately and can communicate
with the master.
The master first records and numbers the connected components. It groups each valve, sensor
etc. into the relevant function groups. The numbering starts at the left line and is then continued
at the right line, see also Installation.
The adjustment path of the valve plug for all valves of type LegioTherm 2T is also checked in
order to adjust the exact position of the valve plug.
It is not possible to enter any data during all these initialization processes. The indicator lights of
the valves light up yellow and the master checks the firmware version of each component. If an
update is necessary, this is performed automatically by the master and a message is displayed,
too.
Afterwards, the recorded components are displayed.
19

4 Working with the master
If some of the components were not recorded correctly, press button(1) to close the dia-
log, switch the master off, check that all components are connected correctly and then
switch the master on again.
If all valves were recorded correctly, confirm dialog positively with button(2).
The master overview appears. The detected components are initialized.
The pre-configured applications can already be opened and parameterized using the
functional elements in(1) without starting them. The Run button (2) is still inactive.
After successful initialization, a message(3) additionally appears. The Runbutton
(2) becomes active.
Press the Run (2) button to start normal operation. This button only becomes active if it
was positively confirmed that all components were detected, and the initialization of the
components was completed afterwards.
Thus, the main menu is also displayed completely.
