Driver TIGRA enable connection of FOU remote control
panel marked re pectively 0,1,2,3. Thi number i di played
when turning on the driver by the network button on the pla h
creen. It i al o vi ible on the tally of every panel. “0” panel i
the ba ic (main) panel, crewed to the main hou ing of the
driver or directly connected to the hou ing when the main
panel i mounted on the boiler and upper hou ing, for example,
behind the container or on rear/ ide wall of the boiler. On the
other hand, every additionally mounted panel in the apartment
will be of equential number 1, 2 or 3. There i no po ibility to
connect for example two panel of the ame number. Driver
oftware automatically detect the connected panel and allow
it the control over the whole unit work. Every additional panel
look the ame a the main panel (0) and allow the full
5

regulation of the boiler and view of the heating unit current
work mode. There i an ability to mount the panel for example
on a wall, metal ba e, or in any other place you choo e.
Modern con truction ba ed on two proce or allow
operation of the unit even without the panel. Any time you
can di connect one of the panel (even the “0” panel) and the
driver will work anyway, en uring the full control over work of
the boiler.
3.2 EMOTE PANELS SUPPLY
Each of remote control panel i directly powered from the
driver main hou ing. The device u e a tandard 4-wire cable
with 0,5 cro - ection which provide power upply (red and
blue wire) and data tran mi ion (black and white wire).
De cription of the panel ocket and connection chematic are
placed in every panel on rear wall of the hou ing and in the
manual. De cription of driver' ocket connector can be found
below. There i a po ibility to power the panel from
independent power upply 12V connected to the wall ocket
230V near the device and connect it with the driver central unit
by only a 2-wire cable tran mitting information. Only two
central pin of the panel connector are u ed then (black and
white wire – data tran mi ion).
When connecting more than one remote panel there i no
need to connect each panel with the driver! Ju t connect
for example 3 panel in erie and only one of them
hould be connected by a cable with the main driver.

Below you can ee a ocket for remote panel connecting. Two
upper pin are the upply. Two bottom pin – information
tran mi ion, data tran mi ion:
–12V + RED wire
–12V - BLUE wire
–INFO + data tran mi ion, BLACK wire
–INFO - data tran mi ion, WHITE wire
3.3 PANEL- CENT AL UNIT
COMMUNICATION
To enable communication between the panel( ) and the central unit (main
driver), you can u e only two central pin on the ide of panel and two
bottom pin of the connector on the driver hou ing, marked in the picture a
INFO + i INFO – (black and white wire ). In order to upply the panel
directly from the driver, you can u e two additional pin (outer in the panel
and two upper in the connector of the driver, red and blue wire ). Panel can
be al o powered directly from an independent power upply 12V. If the
panel ha an independent upply, you can u e only a 2-wire cable
tran mitting data (INFO+ and INFO-)
No supply means a mistake in cables connection between pins
+12V and -12V. No main screen of the driver (time, mode, set
temperature and operating status) is a mistake in cable
connection between INFO+ and INFO-). A mistake while
connecting the cables may cause damage to the panel or central unit!

7 D IVE HANDLING
Plea e contact u if there are any problem with the driver
handling or the proce of burning, once you read thi
in truction. Technical ervice number i given on the title page
of thi manual. Our erviceman will help you with handling
and etting the device.
7.1. First run
The driver can be enabled by the power witch on the left ide of the
driver upper hou ing. Current temperature of the central heating boiler
will be di played on the red di play. Set temperature (T et) will be
di played on the LCD and the operating mode of the driver- (OFF).
The current time and operating mode are al o di played (factory
etting – NORM, more detail de cription of operating mode in para
11).
In the OFF mode, you can make any change in menu, becau e the
driver i in “ tandby” - fan and fuel feeder are not active.
The device can be witched to BURNING UP operating mode u ing
the button - in cription BURNING UP will be then di played.
Pre ing again thi button will cau e a return to the “ tandby” mode –
OFF.
7.2 Changing the function parameters in the
driver menu
Any function parameter changes can be done in the same way:
U ing button or you witch to menu and then find the function
of your intere t, the value of which you want to change.
Select the function, and then u ing thi button you witch to the
edition creen (green color of the di play).
U ing again button or you can make change that hould be
confirmed by thi button . The creen will be blue again. The change
wa accepted. U ing thi button you can witch to the main creen.
13

In the summer season, when the boiler is not used, the driver
should be in the “OFF” mode. Only then the ANTI STOP
function of the central heating circulation pump is on. This
function enables the central heating pump cyclically once a week,
eliminating that way the phenomenon of the pump getting stiff. You
can also enable the driver using the power switch or remove the
plug from the power socket, just remember to turn on the central
heating pump in the manual mode for a moment once a week.
7.3 Burning up in the boiler
In order to et fire to the boiler, you hould witch to the function
MANUAL OPE ATION.
Using the buttons:
or you hould find the creen MANUAL OPE ATION.
U ing thi button you can accept and turn on the manual
operation. The creen will change it color to green. It indicate that
the manual operation function i enabled. From that moment you can
enable/di able the following receiver :
–fan (button )
–fuel feeder (button )
–central heating circulation pump (button )
U ing thi button you can enable the feeder to upply the fuel.
While in the manual mode, you can al o tart the blower and central
heating pump at any moment u ing the e button on the keyboard.
By enabling/di abling the blower and feeder, reach the temperature of
about 40 ˚C.
It is recommended that the circulation pump should work
while setting fire in the manual mode.
After etting fire and reaching the appropriate temperature - 40 ˚C,
you can exit the MANUAL CONTROL u ing thi button and
14

return to the main creen. The di play will change it color form green
to blue.
The driver will automatically et fire in the boiler and reach the
temperature et by the u er.
U ing thi button you elect the operating mode – FIRE
SETTING. While etting fire, you adju t the parameter FEED TIME,
FEED PERIOD and BLOWER LEVEL according to the clue ( ).
Minimal temperature that can be set on the boiler
depends on the manufacturer's suggestions of the
boiler. More information on that issue can be found
in the technical specification of the device. Not
following the manufacturer's suggestions and burning in
lower temperatures may cause the central heating boiler
warranty expire.
Automatic fire setting is indicated by BURNING UP message on the main
display. When the boiler reaches the set temperature, inscription
RUNNING appears.
During automatic burning up, you should properly
choose the parameters FEED TIME, FEED PERIOD
and BLOWER LEVEL to maintain the appropriate
level of heat on the feeder's head and the best possible
flame while burning up. During burning up, the user has
only two parameters to use – FEED TIME and BLOWER
LEVEL. It is recommended that the feed period was set to 90
sec. Such feed period is the most optimal for boilers of 1 -
60KW.

8. OPE ATING MODES
( tandby, top, etting fire, regulation, running)
After witching off the device u ing the power witch, the
di play will how the in cription OFF. You can adju t the
parameter , but in thi mode, the driver doe not control the
fuel feeder and fan. Circulation pump work according to the
etting depending on temperature.
After pre ing the burning up tart , and word BU NING
UP appear – the feeder and fan tart. When the et temperature
i reached, the driver witche to the UNNING mode. Only
blow work, in order not to extinct. Depending on etting the
value FEED COUNT, the feeder tart . (ie, count set to 3
enables the feeder every third blow, count set to 2 starts the
blower every second blow, etc. Feed count set to OFF causes
that in the running mode the fuel will not be supplied). When
temperature drop below the et (minu the value of hi tere i ),
the drive witche to the EGULATION operating mode. A
do e of fuel i automatically upplied and blower tart . In the
EGULATION mode, it i enabled with a frequency et by
u ing the function FEED TIME and FEED PERIOD. Fan
work all the time, increa ing the heat to achieve the et
temperature again. The drive will witch to EXTINCTION
mode if there i no fuel left in the container, then the lynchpin
will be broken at the drive of the feeder or when the upply
y tem will be broken or when the temperature drop below the
value of REGULATOR TURN OFF TEMPERATURE. When
for example the regulator turn off temperature i et to 35
degree and the current temperature at the boiler drop to 34
degree , after 5 minutes – extinction tart , which la t for 2
hour (factory etting, po ibility of change). After 2 hour , the
driver witche to the STANDBY mode. The feeder and fan
witch off.
16

The u er i informed about the EXTINCTION tart (after 5
minute delay) by a hort beep when the current boiler
temperature drop below the DRIVER SWITCH-OFF
TEMPERATURE. 5 min. later the extinction proce will tart.
To witch again to the BURNING UP mode, pre until the
