functIon
With the MAX! Boiler Controller you can control your central
heating and hot water tank according to your personal needs.
You can easily adjust the times and temperature for your he-
ating and hot water via PC from home or via smartphone app,
no matter where you are.
The device has two channels:
• MAX! Central heating for controlling your heating and
• MAX! Hot water for controlling your warm water tank.
Each channel can be controlled independently.
The configuration of the device is done via the MAX! software.
Therefore, simply connect the MAX! Boiler Controller to the
MAX! Cube. Then set up your individual week programs with
temperatures and times according to your personal needs.
With the smartphone app, you can control your system even
while being away from home.
You can control the channel “Central heating” also via
the MAX! Wall Thermostat+ and the Boiler Controller,
without the need of a MAX! Cube or Internet connection.
In this case, the configuration of your heating is done
directly on the MAX! Wall Thermostat+. Simply install the
MAX! Wall Thermostat+ in a room of your house or flat
that is frequently heated and connect the MAX! Boiler
Controller with the device. For further information,
please refer to the user manual of the MAX! Wall
Thermostat+.
