The RF-OPTIMA BASIC PLUS thermostat and the receiver have a binary code with which the channel can be set. The receiver has a button to link it
with the thermostat, which in turn has a button to link it. This linking has usually already been activated. Should this not be the case, the following steps
can be taken.
- Press the button on the receiver (A); the green LED light will flash (B).
- Press and hold the SET (E) button on the thermostat for seconds. You will hear a buzzing sound (D) and the LED lights on the
receiver will stop blinking.
- The location (channel) will be shown on the thermostat display. The thermostat and the receiver are now linked. Press the SET
button (E), to continue.
The jumper (E) can be removed to switch off buzzer mode.
The measured temperature of the RF-OPTIMA BASIC PLUS is easy to calibrate. Only use this function if the measured temperature deviates (this
happens if you place the thermostat in a drawer or similar), thermostat must be in off status!
- Press and hold the SET (E) button on the thermostat for seconds; the code (e.g. 8cAS )will be shown in the top left corner.
- Use the + (F) and – (G) buttons to set the temperature value. This value can be adjusted by -8 to +8°C.
- Press the SET (E) button on the thermostat to save this function and leave the menu. Press the O (C) button to turn on the
thermostat.

Setting the time, day and temperature on the thermostat:
To set the time and day with the following steps.
- Press and hold the SET button (E) for around seconds. The minutes display (top left in the display) flashes.
- Change this value using the + (F) and – (G) buttons.
- Press the SET button (E). The hour display (top left in the display) flashes.
- Change this value using the + (F) and – (G) buttons.
- Press the SET button (E). The day display (top left in the display) will flash as a number.
- Change this value using the + (F) and – (G) buttons. Use 1 for Monday, 2 for Tuesday, for Wednesday, 4
for Thursday, 5 for Friday, 6 for Saturday and 7 for Sunday.
- Press the SET button (E). The set temperature for heatingmode can be made.
- Change this value using the + (F) and – (G) buttons.
- Press the SET button (E). The set temperature for coolingmode can be made.
- Change this value using the + (F) and – (G) buttons.
- Press the SET button (E), save the settings and leave the menu.

The receiver can be mounted directly on a wall or in a flush-mounted box. Remove the fascia panel first of all; there are two indentations on the bottom
side which can be pushed in using a screwdriver.
The receiver has a connecting terminal which has 5 connections.
The RF Optima Basic Plus has also a connection terminal for heating or cooling OR for automatically heating/cooling by a heatpump

The RF thermostat has on the backside pins which is connecting a green or black terminal on the mounting plate
which can be used for heating or cooling mode. The default setting is heat, but when the terminal 7 and 6 are being
connected, the thermostat is set for cool mode. This connection can be made with a thin electric wire 0,25mm2
When the thermostat must be act automaticly, e.g by heatpump, make the wiring as below.
The main heat/cool installation must have a volt free output!
– Connect on terminal 7 the COMMON wire.
– Connect on terminal 6 the COOL wire.
– Connect on terminal 5 the HEAT wire.
When the heat/cool installation generate heat, contact 7 and 5 should be activated. When the heat/cool installation
generate cooling, contact 7 and 6 should be activated.
Minimum wire thickness for this cable is 0,75mm2

- Batteries should be replaced once a year to ensure accurate operation (use alkaline AA batteries, 1.5 V, e.g. from Duracell).
- Treat the OPTIMA-RF BASIC PLUS thermostat and the receiver with care; the thermostat and the receiver have sensitive electronics.
- The OPTIMA-RF BASIC PLUS cannot tolerate moisture and extreme heat; ensure that the thermostat and the receiver are suitably
protected.
We hope you enjoy using the OPTIMA-RF BASIC PLUS thermostat.
