OVERVIEW
The latest range of Polypipe’s Radio Frequency central heating controls offer a quick
and easy option for both new and retrofit installations.
The following guide will take you through the simple step by step process for setting
up your new RF controls system.
Before you commence the setting up process please be sure to have your
RF Thermostat and Four Channel Timer technical installation guides to hand
as these will provide you with the necessary information required to complete
the RF initialisation set-up between the room thermostat units, four channel timer
and the RF master and slave units.
In order to ensure that the best RF signal is transmitted and received the remote
antenna unit as supplied should be positioned in a vertical plane and at least 50cm
away from any other electrical outlet or any metallic pipe work.

Pairing The RF Thermostats
(PBDIG RF PBRS RF & PBPRPS RF)
1) Press and hold the OK button for approximately 10 seconds
and the first green LED will illuminate (flashing).
2) Press the OK button again quickly and the first LED will turn
Red to show that the first zone is ready to be paired with
the relevant room thermostat. At the same time the second
LED will flash green.
First ensure that the wiring unit is correctly wired up to the electrical system in
accordance with the instructions as given in the installation manual as supplied
with the PB2ZM RF. Switch on the power to the unit and the green power LED
should illuminate.

3) Pair the first thermostat by following the procedure as
shown in the installation guide as supplied with the RF
thermostat units Once the pairing signal has been accepted
the first LED will become solid green. At this point it is
important to remember to then switch this thermostat
to the OFF mode so as to prevent its wireless signal from
interfering with any further pairing process.
4) Press the OK button again quickly and the second LED
will now flash Red indicating that the second zone is ready
to be paired. Follow the same pairing process for this zone
as previously explained.
At this stage the PB2ZM RF unit will now be paired to the
two thermostatic zones. If an additional RF Slave Unit is to be
used continue to follow the above procedure until all of the
remaining zones have also been paired.
Additional Information:
To toggle between zones to be paired please use the left and
right arrow buttons.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
At this stage the thermostat units will now be paired to their
relevant master wiring centre and slave unit zones (if used).
In the case of the PBPRPS RF fully programmable units where
no additional timer unit is to be used it is necessary to now
complete the pairing process by pressing and holding the OK
button until all of the LED’s go out. Once this happens the
pairing process is now complete and the zones should respond
to the relevant demand signals from thermostat unit/s.
5) Pairing the Time Clock:
Where the PBDIG RF or PBRS RF units have been used it is
necessary to now pair the relevant timer channel on the
PB4CTC RF timer unit to the master wiring centre. To do
this you will need to access the Installer Menu in the timer
unit by following the instructions as supplied with the unit
. Once you have chosen the required channel to be used
and have initialised the pairing function all of the Green
LED’s will switch off inside the master unit and slave unit
to indicate that the pairing of the time clock has been
successful. Please note that no actions are necessary to the
master wiring centre.
Once the time clock and room thermostats have been
switched to the required operating mode the system should
now respond accordingly.
Performing a Full Factory Reset:
Sometimes it may become necessary to return the master
wiring unit and slave unit (if fitted) to their factory resets.
This action will completely erase any current pairing information
and enable the units to be fully reprogrammed.
To do this press and hold down all three of the buttons on the
side of the master unit until both green LED’s are illuminated.
During this process if only one of the LED’s illuminates you will
need to first release the three buttons and then press them
again until both LED’s are lit. Once this happens keep the
buttons depressed until both LED’s switch off and then quickly
release the buttons. After a few seconds both LED’s will flash
Green once and then switch off again. The unit/s are now
fully reset.
