Mx-RBW
Room Control Module
Application
Safety Instructions
Solar-powered room control module with LCD and controls, with smart communication management for measuring room
temperature and for wireless transmission of measured values, occupancy, setpoint and weekly schedule.
The Mx-RBW supports the EnOcean radio standard ISO/IEC 14543-3-10 for direct communication with the Mx-D15 radio
small actuator or an EnOcean gateway. It uses EEP D2-10-01* for connection to an EnOcean gateway.
In combination with the Mx-D15, the Mx-RBW constitutes a functional unit for controlling the room temperature.

Installation
CAUTION:
This product description contains the specific settings and functions of the Mx-RBW. In addition to these instructions, the product
description of the Mx-D15 must also be observed.
General Installation Instructions:
It is not always possible to freely select the installation location of devices which communicate wirelessly, as radio data transmission is
influenced to a greater or lesser extent by structural or spatial factors.
Before installation and assembly, the building structure must be analyzed and a series of measurements must be made to determine
the specific ranges within the building.
In order to establish operational and reliable communication paths, the following aspects must be considered before and during
planning:
- Structural factors restrict the transmission ranges which can be reached. Building materials and screening elements (e.g.
suspended ceiling elements, installation shafts, fire doors, etc.) must be taken into consideration during planning.
CAUTION:
Elevated humidity increases natural signal damping.
NOTE:
Recommendation: Plan radio paths horizontally on a single level with max. 30 m between the transmitting and receiving modules.
• Designed only for use in rooms.
• Observe minimum distances to potential sources of interference.
- Min. 0.5 m to high-frequency sources of interference (such as microwaves, transformers or computers)
- Min. 3.0 m to transmitters of other radio systems (such as a cordless telephone or headphones)
- Min. 0.1 m to metal and door frames
• Minimize the eect of wall thickness (for example partition walls or room dividers) by ensuring that the radio signal passes through
the walls at as close to a right angle as possible.

Mx-RBW
Room Control Module
Installation (continued)
• Do not select installation locations in the radio shadow of screening building parts/structures. No direct reception possible.
• Where the device is installed at the limits of reliability, change the position of the transmitter/ receiver slightly if possible (reduce
overlapping eects of radio waves).
• The room control modules are to be mounted in a location where they are exposed to the air circulation in the room so that they can
quickly and accurately measure the room temperature.
• As a result of the autonomous operation and wireless installation of Mx-RBW, the selected installation location can be changed and
optimized at any time without additional eort.
Mounting
The installation location must have sucient lighting; using the device in unlit rooms (such as interior kitchens/bathrooms) shortens
the length of the maintenance cycle.
The solar cell is optimized for indoor use and it works particularly eciently with diuse lighting.
CAUTION:
Prolonged illumination at high intensities, e.g.
- Direct sunlight or
- Artificial light (such as halogen emitters) can cause damage to the solar cell.

Mx-RBW
Room Control Module
Operation, Display and Settings
The Mx-RBW room control module is operated on three levels: the operating level, the configuration level and the service level.
The descriptions for these can be found on the following pages.
NOTE:
If the occupancy button is switched to “absent” (economy mode) during an active usage time, the economy mode is active until the
next switching point (start time) for “comfort mode”.
Comfort mode: Operating mode for a room that is in use (usage status: “Present”). The controller operates with the
specified comfort setpoint. This setpoint is set to a comfortable room temperature.
Economy mode: Energy-saving operating mode (movement status: “Absent”/economy mode) for a room that is not in use.
The controller operates with a predefined reduced set- point.
Summer mode: Summer operating mode. The temperature is controlled using economy mode
Switching on the device
The device is delivered in a storage mode (display switched o)
-This standby state can be ended by simultaneously pressing the knob and the occupancy button for approximately 3 seconds.
