Outdoor Temperature Sensor Connections
Section 2.1
Control Installation
1. Install outdoor temperature sensor on outside
of structure.
2. Connect field supplied wiring to terminals
inside of sensor. Ensure wiring is run through
strain relief at bottom of sensor housing.
Reinstall sensor cover onto sensor backing.
3. Run field supplied wiring between sensor and
controller sub-base.
4. Locate wiring connections on sub-base of
Versatronik COMO OT Room Controller.
5. Wire to terminals 5 and 6 in sub-base of
Versatronik COMO OT.
Install Versatronik Como OT onto sub-base for
programming or adjustments.
WARNING
!
When extending wire there is the possibility of
exposure to electromagnetic interference. Avoid
running wires beside or near high voltage 120/240
VAC conductors. If proximity to high voltage
conductors cannot be avoided, use stranded, twisted
pair of shield design wire. Ensure that only one end of
the shielding is grounded.
Important
The outdoor temperature sensor should be
mounted 2 to 2.5 metres above ground level on
the north or north-west facing wall of the
building. In the case of multi-storey buildings, it
should be mounted in the upper half of the
second storey. Make sure that the sensor is not
located over windows, doors and air vents, nor
immediately beneath a balcony or guttering. Do
not paint over the outdoor temperature sensor
housing.

Operation Overview
The Versatronik COMO OT Room Temperature
Control is designed to operate with OpenTherm
enabled boilers to provide efficient operation of
the boiler’s burner. This is achieved by maximizing
burner modulation, instead of demand ON/OFF/ON
operation from standard room thermostats.
The control allows operation with or without an
outdoor temperature sensor. When used without
the sensor, outdoor reset operation is not
possible. As such, some of the settings will not be
available. When the outdoor sensor is installed
and wired to the control,
it is immediately
recognized.
Room temperature
feedback may also be
enabled in an effort to
maximize occupant
comfort. When the
control is programmed
for room temperature
feedback, the room
influence factor
adjustment can be set to
modify the operation/
response of the boiler/
burner. Depending on the
type of heating (eg. Baseboard, panel radiators or
radiant floor), room temperature feedback may
not provide the desired result. This is due to low
mass versus high mass systems and the response
of each system.
When the controller is operating in outdoor reset
mode, it is possible to program the control for up
to three desired normal room temperature
settings. This is based on the timers 1, 2 and 3.
Setting T-Room Des at the same values allows
consistent normal room temperatures from timer
to timer. When the control is not in normal
temperature mode, it operates in reduced mode.
The reduced mode temperature set point can also
be set.
Control Operation
Section 3.0
The slope adjustment operates in conjunction with
the normal mode and reduced mode settings.
Adjustment of the heating slope is based on
providing the heat necessary from the boiler/
system to overcome the heat loss of the structure.
By making adjustments to the slope and room
temperature mode settings, a boiler water
temperature will be calculated. Heating curve
settings of 0.8 and below are generally suited to
lower temperature systems where a setting of 1.0
and above may be better suited for higher water
temperatures. When adjusting the heating curve
from 0.8 to 1.0, there is a 12C/ shift.
The dial on the front of
the control allows the
user to make minor
adjustments, which
effects the end
calculation of boiler water
temperature set point.
Each dot equates to a +/-
1 degree C or 2.5
degrees F.
The pump operation of
the boiler will be guided
by the selection of room
temperature feedback. If
the room feedback is
turned ON, the pump will operate based on
whether the actual room temperature is above or
below the set point. If the actual room
temperature is above the set point value, the
pump will remain off until the room temperature
drops sufficiently to create a call for heat.
If the room feedback is switched off, the pump will
continue to operate until the control enters warm
weather shut down. The warm weather shut down
mode takes place when the out door temperature
is greater than the normal and reduced mode
temperatures. As the outdoor air temperature
drops below the normal and/or reduced room
temperature set points, the pump will again
continue to operate.
Important
DHW production with the Versatronik Como is not
possible unless the boiler supports a DHW
function. With the OpenTherm communications,
the DHW production is possible just as long as the
boiler supports the functionality.
