In contrast to conventional, thermal drives, the motorised drive can move to any valve position calculated by the floor heating controller to set the desired room temperature. This achieves even thermal flow and a continuous heat output. In isolated cases, replacing conventional with motorised drives may cause flow noise at the heating manifold if the pump pressure has been set too high and the valves are only slightly open. You can eliminate this by changing the pump settings or adapting the floor heating controller parameters.

11 Troubleshooting

11.1 Command not confirmed

If at least one receiver does not confirm a command, the device LED (A) lights up red at the end of the failed transmission process. The reason for the failed transmission may be radio interference, (see „14 General information about radio operation“ on page 40). This may be caused by the following:

  • Receiver cannot be reached.
  • Receiver is unable to execute the command (load failure, mechanical blockade, etc.).
  • Receiver is faulty.

11.2 Duty cycle

The duty cycle is a legally regulated limit of the transmission time of devices in the 868 MHz range. The aim of this regulation is to safeguard the operation of all devices working in the 868 MHz range.

In the 868 MHz frequency range we use, the maximum transmission time of any device is 1% of an hour (i.e. 36 seconds in an hour). Devices must cease transmission when they reach the 1% limit until this time restriction comes to an end. Homematic IP devices are designed and produced with 100% conformity to this regulation.

During normal operation, the duty cycle is not usually reached. However, repeated and radio-intensive pairing processes mean that it may be reached in isolated instances during start-up or initial installation of a system. If the duty cycle is exceeded, this is indicated by three slow flashes of the device LED, and may manifest itself in the device temporarily working incorrectly. The device starts working correctly again after a short period (max. 1 hour).

14 General information about radio operation

Radio transmission is performed on a non-exclusive transmission path, which means that there is a possibility of interference occurring. Interference can also be caused by switching operations, electrical motors or defective electrical devices.
