communication). The controller enables signifi cant energy saving due to precise
temperature management in particular rooms. Due to advanced software, the controller
fulfi ls a wide range of functions:
• controlling thermostatic actuators 230V
• controlling the pump ( 230V input)
• voltage-free contact intended for controlling e.g. the heating device
• possibility of connecting Internet modules which allow the user to adjust certain
functions and view certain parameters via the Internet
• controlling 8 temperature sensors (placed in separate heating zones
Controller dimensions
II.a) Principle of operation
Controller decides if a given zone needs to be heated on the basis of current temperature
value sent by the room sensor or the room regulator as well as the individual operation
algorithm of the zone.
If heating is necessary, controller opens the valve and activates the pump and the
additional contact which may be used e.g. for controlling the heating device.
Each zone should be assigned wired valve actuators.

NOTE
The user should enable the Internet module to connect with data servers listening
on TCP/2000 port. Most computer networks are protected by various software
(fi rewalls, anti-virus software etc.) which may block data exchange with the
above mentioned port. If any problems arise, contact technical support or your
computer network administrator.
STEP 5. Set current time and date
Set current time and date in the fi tter’s menu.
Step 5. Confi gure temperature sensors / room regulators
To enable UFH8ZMP external controller to control a given zone, it is necessary to provide
it with current temperature value. The easiest way is to use temperature sensor. If the
user wants to be able to change the pre-set temperature value directly from the zone, it is
advisable to use room regulators (an additional advantage of using room regulators is the
possibility of setting a weekly schedule of the pre-set temperature).
The user may also choose UFHTFTM room regulator which off ers additional
functionalities apart from sending the current temperature readings. It serves as a master
controller enabling the user to change the pre-set zone temperatures, adjust the weekly
schedules etc. Only one room regulator of this type may be installed in the heating system.
Regardless of the type of temperature sensor / room regulator chosen, it must be
registered in a particular zone in UFH8ZMP controller menu
How to register UFHSENSEWP room sensor:
In order to register, go to Sensor in the submenu of a
given zone (Zone / Registration / Sensor). After selecting
Registration press the communication button on the
selected temperature sensor.
If the process has been completed successfully, UFH8ZMP
external controller display shows an appropriate message.

If the registration process has been completed
successfully, the UFH8ZMP display shows an appropriate message
whereas the room sensor display shows “Scs”. In case of errors in
the registration process, the room sensor display shows “Err”.
How to register UFHTFT room regulators:
In order to register, go to Sensor in the submenu
of a given zone ( Zone/Registration/Sensor). After
selecting Registration go to the room regulator menu
and activate the registration process (Controller
settings / Registration).
If the process has been completed
successfully, SUFH8ZMP external controller display
and the room regulator display show an appropriate
message
NOTE
Only one sensor / room regulator may be assigned to each zone.
The following rules must be kept in mind:
- once registered, the sensor/regulator cannot be unregistered, but only switched off by
selecting Switched off in the submenu of a given zone,
- if the user attempts to assign a sensor/regulator to the zone to which other sensor/
regulator has already been assigned, the fi rst sensor becomes unregistered and it is
replaced by the second one.
- if the user attempts to assign a sensor/regulator which has already been assigned to a
diff erent zone, the sensor/regulator is unregistered from the fi rst zone and registered in
the new one.
It is possible to set individual pre-set temperature value and weekly schedule for each
room sensor / regulator assigned to a given zone. The settings may be confi gured both
in the controller menu (Main menu/Sensors) and via polypipe.emodul.eu (using Internet
module).

UFH8ZMP
VI.b) Manual operation
This function enables the user to activate particular devices (pump, voltage-free contact
and valve actuators) independently of the others it order to check if they operate properly.
In is advisable to check the devices using this procedure at the fi rst start-up.
VI.c) Zones
This submenu enables the user to confi gure operation parameters for particular zones.
When the pre-set temperature value in a zone is reached, the controller labels the zone as
suffi ciently heated and the status remains until the temperature drops below the pre-set
temperature by hysteresis value. When the temperature in all the zones is suffi cient, the
controller disables both the pump and the voltage-free contact.
Submenu of each zone:
• OFF/ON
After the room sensor has been connected and registered in a given zone. The sensor may
be deactivated by selecting OFF option.
• Pre-set temperature
The pre-set zone temperature depends on the weekly schedule settings. However, this
function enables the user to change this value separately.
After the value has been set, the user defi nes how long the temperature should apply.
When the time elapses, the pre-set temperature depends on the weekly schedule again.
If the user sets 00:00 as the time, the temperature applies for indefi nite period of time.
The main screen displays current pre-set temperature value and the time left (see: Main
screen description).

User’s manual
• Weekly control
The controller off ers two types of weekly schedules:
Own – local schedule
This weekly schedule is assigned to a given zone only. After the room sensor has been
detected by the external controller, the schedule is activated automatically in this zone and
may be adjusted by the user to individual needs.
1..5 schedules – global schedule
These schedules have universal settings for all zones and they cannot be edited in the
external controller (to introduce changes it is necessary to connect to the Internet via the
Internet module or UFHTFTM).
In order to assign a schedule to a given zone, choose Select option.
In order to adjust the global schedule as the current schedule in a given zone,
choose Edit option. After the schedule has been modifi ed and saved, it is overwritten as a
local schedule.
The type of weekly schedule assigned to a zone is displayed in the main screen (See: Main
screen description – screen area no. 9).
Edit
In order to start editing, select Edit option.
The user may program up to 3 time periods with pre-defi ned time limits (with the
accuracy of 15 minutes). Separate temperature value is assigned to each time period. The
next step involves setting the temperature value to apply outside the time periods (setback
temperarture).
The last step involves choosing days of the week when the settings should apply.
Use ▲to edit the next day and press ▼ to select/deselect.
• Calibration
Room sensor calibration should be performed while mounting or after it has been used
for a long time, if the external temperature displayed diff ers from the actual temperature.
Calibration setting range is from -10˚C to +10˚C with the accuracy of 0,1˚C.
• Hysteresis
This function is used to defi ne tolerance of the pre-set temperature in order to prevent
undesired oscillation in case of small temperature fl uctuation (within the range 0 ÷ 10⁰C)
with the accuracy of 0,1°C.
Example: if the pre-set temperature is 23⁰C and the hysteresis is 0,5⁰C, the zone
temperature is considered too low when it drops to 22,5⁰C.

VII. Protections and alarm
In order to ensure safe and failure-free operation, the regulator has been equipped with a
range of safeguards. In case of an alarm, a sound signal is activated and the display shows
a message informing about the detected problem.
Temperature protection.
UFH8ZMP external controller is equipped with thermal protection which disconnects
UFH8ZMP from the power supply when the protection temperature has been exceeded.
WARNING
!!!This item must be connected in order to start the controller.!!!
Automatic sensor control
In the event of temperature sensor or external sensor damage, an alarm is activated and
the display shows an appropriate message, e.g.: „Sensor damaged”.
The alarm remains active until the fault is removed (the sensor battery or the sensor itself
is replaced) and alarm is deleted in the external controller.
How to delete the zone alarm in the external controller
Select the zone in which the alarm occurred (indicated by the exclamation mark instead of
the number). Press EXIT – two options appear on the screen:
-Reset
The external controller re-attempts to communicate with the sensor (it may take up to
several minutes). Until the communication is established, the valve remains in the alarm
mode (closed – zone temperature reached). If the communication attempt fails, the alarm
activates again.
-Deactivate
This option deactivates the zone altogether. It may be activated again by selecting Activate
in Main menu/Sensors/1..8 zones.
