This means that your climate system can be controlled at all times. The Smart Remote Controller is placed near the
OptiClimate(s) and connected to the OptiClimate(s) with a cable. A computer or smartphone (remotely) communicates
via the internet with the Smart Remote Controller, which controls the OptiClimate(s).

INSTALLATION
Control 2 or more Opticlimates remotely:
Connect your Smart Remote Controller (or Computer) with a Repeater Box 8. A Repeater Box distributes the communication
from the Smart Remote Controller over 8 channels. Because of this it is possible to control up to 8 OptiClimates. Connect the
USB Interlink Adapter to the USB-port of the Smart Remote Controller (or Computer). Use a Black Interlink Cable to connect
the USB Interlink Adapter with your Repeater Box 8 at the RS485-port.
What is the distance between the Repeater Box and the Smart Remote Controller?
Less than 5mt: connect with supplied USB cable 5mt
More than 5mt: connect with a black Interlink cable + USB Interlink Adapter
