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

When no aircos are found, an error will be displayed
An error dialog, no aircos found
If no aircos are found, check the cabling, and also if the aircos are turned on.
No message will appear when everything went fine.
