Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this quality product from Unique Automation. To enjoy the
full potential of your new product, please take time to read this guide. Having done
so, keep it handy for future reference.
bathomatic is a fully automated bath management system and shower control
designed to remove the chores of bath filling and water temperature maintenance
leaving the pleasurable part of the bathing experience.
bathomatic can be controlled by a range of interfaces and this guide covers the use
of the bathomatic Basic User Interface (BUI). Below are simple instructions allowing
users to run a bath and alter their preferences using the easy to navigate BUI with its
function/navigation buttons and graphics display.

Graphics Display
When the bath is empty or BUI is not used for few minutes BUI goes into
hibernation and its graphics display goes blank. To make the system ready for use
you need to touch any function or navigation button and the graphics below will
appear indicating bathomatic status: Current bath water temperature and depth and
the last called / desired water temperature and depth.
bathomatic status:Filling - when bathomatic is filling
Paused - bathomatic filling/draining is paused1
Draining / emptying - when bathomatic is draining
Empty
Current Water Temperature - displays the temperature of the water in the bath
Current Water Depth - displays the depth of the water in the bath
Desired Water Temperature - displays the temperature value last sent to
bathomatic
Desired Water Depth - displays the depth value last sent to bathomatic
1Pressing the button during filling or draining will put bathomatic in paused status awaiting further
instructions. Pressing the button again will change status to filling and followed by the
button will change status to draining.

Quick Start
Touch the BUI if the graphics display is blank. The graphics display will light up
showing the current depth and temperature of water in the bath in the larger font
and in the small font on the lower right below temperature and depth the last used
desired values for temperature and depth. Should you whish to run the same
values again, just press
To increase/decrease the desired water temperature use / and to
increase/decrease the desired water depth use / . Pressing the will start
filling to the new values.
The desired values for water temperature and depth can be altered when
bathomatic is empty and is not filling or draining. Should you wish to change the
desired temperature and depth when bathomatic is filling or draining press which
will pause bathomatic, then change the values and press again for bathomatic to
resume filling to the new settings.
When the desired water temperature and depth are being changed their reading on
the graphics display move from the small to the big font type in the place of the
current values.
Presets
bathomatic stores 9 presets with individual temperature, depth and perfume
selection.
Running a preset

0% - bath calibration
The easiest and fastest way for 0% bath calibration is done by pouring water into
the bath tub with the plug closed until the water fills the cavity of the waste
completely and becomes level with the bottom of the bath tub. When the water is
level with the bottom of the bath tub let it settle for a little while then select SET 0%
in the SERVICE MENU and press to store the value.
Below is a method for 0% bath calibration using the BUI. Some practice is
necessary until you can precisely draw the right amount of water by using only the
BUI and often it is easier to draw more water than needed and adjust the depth by
manually lifting the plug until the water level is at 0%
Bath tub calibration should only be undertaken when the bath tub is in sight, and
you have easy access to the power switches supplying bathomatic and all
associated equipment. It is advisable that calibration is done prior to final
positioning of the bath panels/aprons. bathomatic can only operate reliably if it is
calibrated correctly

100% - bath calibration
Different bath tubs hold different amounts of water, thus calibrating the baths 100%
depth is essential to ensure bathomatic does not overflow. bathomatic can take
any depth to be 100% thus you have to teach it your choice of 100% depth or full
bath. Typically 100% is set to at least 20mm below the point of overflow. When the
bath tub is full let the water settle for a little while then select SET 100% in the
SERVICE MENU and press to store the value. Before you attempt to SET
100% you must first SET 0%
It is strongly recommended that 100% bath calibration is made below the point of
overflow.
If 100% - bath calibration is set at the point of overflowing, due to the fluctuation of
depth reading bathomatic may never reach 100%, thus it may not stop filling should
100% fill is requested.
