Installing and Connecting the AKL08RF Zigbee Zone Wiring Centre

Use the AKL08RF zone wiring centre to simply and safely connect thermostats and corresponding thermal actuators or motorised valves. The AKL08RF connects to the wireless network through the AC10RF

coordinator or the Universal Gateway SG888ZBWH. One coordinator can support up to nine wiring centres, which means that if you buy more than one wiring centre, you will only need one of the

included coordinators. Keep the other coordinators in a safe place as spares. If you are using the Universal Gateway SG888ZBWH please remove the AC10RF coordinator from your system.

Install the AKL08RF only in dry and closed interior rooms. Relative air humidity in the room may not exceed 95%. Clean the AKL08RF only with a dry and soft cloth. Do not use solvents or aggressive cleaning agents.

If you are not using theSG888ZBWH

Gateway then plug in the AC10RF

coordinator.

Jumper Settings/Positions for Pump/Boiler

On/Off Delay

The pump/boiler on delay and the pump

off delay are fixed 3 minutes in the software

and at 0 in the terminal. The default setting

for the boiler off delay is also 0 minutes,

but can be changed to 15 minutes.

To do this, carefully remove the jumper and

re-insert it in the other position as shown below:

Wireless

The default setting for the wireless connection

is internal (INT). If the external antennae A8RFA

is used change this setting (EXT). Carefully

remove the jumper and re-insert it in the other

position as shown below:

Type of Actuator

The default setting for the type of actuator is

normally closed (NC). To change this setting

to normally open (NO), carefully remove the

jumper and re-insert it in the other position as

shown below. Note that the actuator setting

and thermostat setting must be the same.

Push in the Dew Point

wires in the AKL08RF

for a dry contact

humidity sensing.

• Bend and place the wires into their

correct positions.

• Reattach the 24V supply connection.

• Bend and place the wires into the

round holes at the button of the

AKL08RF for actuators/motorised

valves. You can add up to 4 actuators

or motorised valves for each zone.

• Reattach the white cover to the

wiring center and secure it with two

screws.

Make sure there is the correct

fuse (4 Amp).

Re-attach the plastic cover. Turn the

screw in the lock position. Switch on

main power supply to the unit. The red

LED comes on.

Re-attach the High voltage cover and

secure it with two screws.

Coordinator

Connecting the AKL08RF (s) to the ZigBee Wireless Network

1. On powering up the AKL08RF, all actuator LEDs light up green then go off, then the Network Status LED flashes green.

2. Press and hold the button on the coordinator for five seconds. The button flashes red to indicate the coordinator is

ready to pair. The Network Status LED on the AKL08RF goes steady green when connected.

3. Repeat the process for every AKL08RF in the system. Note that one coordinator can support up to nine AKL08RFs.

4. To identify your AKL08RF (WC) number press Pair for one second. The LED on the zone number lights green:

Zone 1 = WC -1, Zone 2 = WC-2, and so on. The Network Status LED is used to identify WC-9.

5. To pair your Salus thermostats, see your thermostat manual.

6. Press the coordinator button for five seconds until the LED flashes steady red.

Note: To restore the AKL08RF back to factory default settings at any time, using a suitable tool, press the Reset button to the left

of the pair button.

Checking the System Configuration and Communication

• Press and hold the coordinator button for one second. All devices connected to the system flash. To stop checking, press and hold the coordinator

button again for one second.

• Press and hold the Pair button on the WC for five seconds. All devices connected to the AKL08RF will flash. To stop checking, press and hold the Pair

button again for five seconds.

Deleting all Devices from the Wireless Network

• To delete all devices connected to the network, press and hold the coordinator button for 15 seconds. The colour of the button changes from red

to amber.

• To delete all devices connected to the AKL08RF, press and hold the pair button on the AKL08RF for 15 seconds. The G1 and G2 LEDs turn from flashing

red to solid red then go off.

Note: After all devices have been deleted from the wireless network, they will need to be reinstalled. Refer to the instruction manuals.

Universal Gateway

Connecting the AKL08RF (s) to the ZigBee Wireless Network

1. On powering up the AKL08RF, all actuator LEDs light up green then go off, then the Network Status LED flashes green.

2. Remove the coordinator, access the Wise.ly App and add your AKL08RF. When in Pairing Mode, the Universal Gateway will start flashing red. The Network

Status LED on the AKL08RF goes steady green when connected.

3. Repeat the process for every AKL08RF in the system. Note that one Universal Gateway can support up to 100 devices

(thermostats, ARV’s, etc.).

4. To identify your AKL08RF (WC) number press Pair for one second. The LED on the zone number lights green:

Zone 1 = WC -1, Zone 2 = WC-2, and so on. The Network Status LED is used to identify WC-9.

5. To pair your Salus thermostats, see your thermostat manual.

6. The Universal Gateway will turn solid blue automatically, once the pairing process is complete.

Note: To restore the AKL08RF back to factory default settings at any time, using a suitable tool, press the Reset button

to the left of the pair button.

Checking the System Configuration and Communication

• Go to the Wise.ly App and press the Identify button. The device will start flashing. Stop the identify process by pressing

the button from the App again.

• Press and hold the Pair button on the WC for five seconds. All devices connected to the AKL08RF will flash. To stop

checking, press and hold the Pair button again for five seconds.

Deleting all Devices from the Wireless Network

• You can remove your devices from the Wise.ly App. Equipment, All equipment menu.

• To delete all devices connected to the AKL08RF, press and hold the pair button on the AKL08RF for 15 seconds. The G1 and G2 LEDs turn from flashing

red to solid red then go off.

Note: After all devices have been deleted from the wireless network, they will need to be reinstalled. Refer to the instruction manuals.
