Introduction
The Ignite Wireless series is designed to control a typical domestic central heating system.
The Relay module can switch two independent channels. This would usually be the Central
Heating and the Hot Water.
The central heating channel is switched on and off in response to commands from the
supplied Wireless Thermostat.
The Hot Water channel is switched on and off at the programmed time intervals that the
user sets. (When in Auto Mode)

Radio Signal
Consideration for location of your new system components and the affects that this may
have on the radio signal is extremely important. The signal will travel between units in a
straight line and will degrade both with distance and (much more importantly) objects that it
has to pass through.
The Relay Module uses WiFi, so you need a WiFi signal where the Relay Module is located.
You can use your phone to get a good indication of signal strength, hold this against the wall
where the Relay Module is located.
If you cannot get a good signal, consider using a Wifi Range extender to help boost the
signal around the property.
The Thermostat needs to connect to the Relay Module via its internal low power radio.
Every house is different and this is NOT a gaurantee, but as a guide, the units should be
able to communicate with each other through two single skin brick or stud walls.
If the above is not possible then consider moving one or more of the system components.
Also, the radio can be adversely affected by large metal objects such as your boiler, hot
water cylinder, radiators and mirrors. For best performance, ensure that your units are
placed at least 1 metre away from such objects.

Bad Positioning
The below image shows the path that the signal will travel to communicate between the
Relay Module and Thermostat. This is an example of badly positioned items for the following
reasons.
The signal travels between 2 external walls.
Good Positioning
Simply by moving the Thermostat slightly to the right we have greatly improved the signal.
The signal will now only travel through one internal wall

Installation - Relay Module
Tools Required (Not supplied)
Philips screwdriver
Flat blade screwdriver
Long nosed pliers
BS4662 back box
Isolate the existing supply, then remove the existing Programmer (if fitted). Make a careful
note of all wiring locations of the existing programmer before removing any wires. The Relay
Module will replace most existing programmers on the market.
Remove the front cover from the Relay Module, this should easily lift off the unit. If the unit
has been ‘clicked’ in place, then grip the resessed part of the rear and pull the chrome part
of the front cover off.
Pull out the control panel from the wall mount by placing two fingers
on either side whilst holding the wall mount and pulling apart.
Then secure the wall mount onto the single or double gang back box using the two M3
screws provided. If you are not using an existing back box then you will either need to
sink a backbox into the wall, or use an external back box. You can find these in all good
hardware stores.
This unit is designed for fixed wiring only. Wire the unit up following the appropriate circuit
schematic for your heating system type, ensuring that all wires are securely held and that
no bare copper is visible outside the connector block. For ease of wiring, we recommend
1mm2 cable, although 1.5mm2 can also be used. All wiring should conform to the current
IEEE wiring regulations. When replacing an existing programmer, the wiring conversion
table, on the back cover, may be of assistance.
All diagrams are in schematic form and earths have been omitted on the drawings for
clarity. The Relay Module is a class 2 device and does not require an earth. Ensure that you
do not break earth continuity to the rest of the circuit. You may need to join the existing
earth leads together using a terminal strip. Ensure that the circuit is protected by a 3 amp
fuse.
If you are replacing an existing Wired Thermostat with our Wireless Thermostat.
The Wired Thermostat should be removed from the circuit and the Thermostat wiring made
safe by disconnecting the wiring and bridging the connections if required. Depending on
your existing system, the wired Thermostat may be wired back to either your programmer,
the wiring centre / junction box, a zone valve or the boiler itself.

For guidance please refer to the wiring diagrams below, and/or the Wiring Conversions on
page 12.
After the wiring has been completed, Push the control board assembly
into place and secure using the 4 screws. Before putting on the front
cover, we suggest that you test the unit for correct operation.

Installation - Thermostat
Preparing your new Thermostat
There is a back panel that can be used to fully cover single gang back boxes.
If this is not required, it can be removed from the wallmount by twisting it anti-clockwise.
(Fig 5)
Pull the thermostat away from the wall mount. (Fig 6)
Installing the Wall Mount
If you have a single gang back box, secure the wall mount to this using the two M3 screws
provided.
If you do not have an existing back box then, using the wall mount as a template, mark the
location of the two holes on the wall. For reference, the two holes are 60.3 mm apart.
Drill suitable holes (6mm diameter for the supplied wall plugs) and fix the wall mount to the
wall using appropriate wall plugs and screws. WARNING be aware of any buried cables
before drilling.
Install the Batteries in the Thermostat, then place the Thermostat over the cover, this will
click into place. (Fig 7)

Testing the system
Testing the Hot Water
On the Thermostat - Press the 'HW MODE' key until the HW Selector hovers over Man.
Or on the Relay Module - The HW light should be out. Press the HW button twice to switch it
on. It will light green and the unit will call for heat on the HW circuit.
Check that the boiler has fired up and any zone valves have moved to their appropriate
positions. Press the same button again to turn the channel off.
Testing the Central Heating
Press the 'CH MODE' key until the CH Selector hovers over Man.
Press the '/\' key until the temperature is above the room temperature.
You should see a flame icon appear and the CH light on the Relay module should start
to flash Green. Check that the boiler has fired up and any zone valves have moved to their
appropriate positions.
Press the 'CH MODE' key again. The flame icon will go out, the CH Light on the Relay
Module should turn Greeen and boiler should no longer be on (please allow a few minutes
for the boiler to switch off).
Once you have ascertained that the unit is functioning correctly, push the front cover over
the Relay Module until it clips into place.
Please leave this installation manual with the user.

Pairing
Your units were all pre paired before they left the factory. If they do not connect up correctly,
and you have waited for at least 10 minutes, the most likely reason is radio range, see the
section on ‘Radio Signal’ above.
In the unlikely event that you need to pair the units to each other then:
To Pair the Thermostat to the Relay Module
• Press the pairing button(Middle) on the Relay Module, this will make all three
lights flash grreen. Then press the appropriate button (CH) to pair the central
heating channel to a thermostat, this will start the light flashing.
• Press and hold the 'CH MODE' and 'ADV HW' keys on the Room Thermostat until
the C1 is displayed.
Once paired the flashing light on the relay module will turn green and the signal indicator
will show a connection strength.
