Frequently Asked Questions - Theta+ FERROLI

What is the Ferroli Theta+ used for?
The Ferroli Theta+ is a heating control system for managing multiple heating circuits, domestic hot water, solar systems, and cascade boilers. It includes standard units, boiler control panels, and room units.
How do I set the data bus address on a remote unit?
After first start-up, the remote unit shows a segment character. Select language, then the device identification and bus address appear. Use the rotary knob to adjust the address (e.g., 11 for direct circuit of basic unit) and confirm by pressing.
What should I do if the control unit shows a sensor error (e.g., code 10-0)?
Code 10-0 indicates an outdoor sensor break. Check the sensor connection and cable. Refer to the alarm table: 10-0 = outdoor sensor break, 10-1 = short circuit. Replace the sensor if needed.
How can I activate the automatic sensor recognition (Auto-Set)?
Auto-Set is activated in the SYSTEM level, parameter 14. Set it to ON. Manual activation: during switch-on, keep the rotary knob pressed during segment test.
What is the maximum cable length for sensor and data bus cables?
For low voltage sensors (0.5 mm²) and data bus (J-Y(St)Y 1x2x0.6 mm²), the maximum length is 100 meters. Longer distances increase interference risk.
How do I perform a relay test?
Enter the RELAY TEST level via the rotary knob. Select each component (e.g., heat generator, pumps, mixer actuators) and toggle them ON/OFF to verify operation. Press the knob to cycle.
Can I connect more than one control unit?
Yes, up to 5 control units can be cascaded with addresses 10, 20, 30, 40, 50. The main unit (address 10) controls the burner; others are add-on units for extra heating circuits.
What does the frost protection symbol (ice crystal) mean?
The ice crystal symbol indicates that frost protection is active. The system will prevent freezing by maintaining a minimum temperature (default 3 °C, adjustable in SYSTEM parameter 05).
How do I reset the operating hours counter?
Go to the HEAT GENERATOR level, parameter 37 for operating hours counter. Set to RESET and confirm with the rotary knob. Stages can be reset individually (RESET ST-1 or ST-2).
What are the recommended installation distances to avoid EMC interference?
Keep mains voltage cables (230 V) at least 2 cm from sensor/data bus cables. Maintain 40 cm distance from equipment like motors, relays, microwaves, and television sets. Crossings are allowed.

General safety instructions

All electrical connections and safety measures have to be carried out by a specialist according to the valid norms and VDE-guidelines as well as the local instructions.

The electrical connection must be fix (see instructions by VDE 0100).

The electrical connection has to be done according to the wiring diagram of the respective boiler control panel.

Important!

Deenergize the boiler before opening. Unprofessional plugging attempts under voltage may damage the control or cause dangerous electrical shocks.

Safety measures for EMC - conform installation

  1. Cables with mains voltage must be generally installed separately from sensor and data bus cables. In this case a minimum distance of 2 cm must be observed. Crossing of lines is permitted.

Mounting location

a – for applications without room sensor If the internal room sensor is not to be activated the RS may be mounted at any location indoors.

b – for applications with room sensor The remote unit should be fixed at a height of approx.1.20 – 1.50 m at a place most representative of all rooms. It is recommended to chose an interior wall of the coolest day room (such as entrance halls). In order to ensure sufficient air circulation at the room station, it must be mounted to the wall with a gap inbetween.

The remote unit must not be mounted

  • at locations exposed to direct sunlight (seasonal variations should be taken into account)
  • close to heat-producing appliances (televisions, refrigerators, wall lamps, radiators etc.)
  • onto walls heated by under plaster heating pipes or chimneys.
  • onto outside walls

  • in corners behind curtains or shelves (due to insufficient ventilation)
    – close to doors of unheated rooms (due to the influence of low temperature)

  • on unsealed under-plaster wiring boxes (influence of external low temperatures due to the chimney effect of installation tubes)
  • in rooms with radiators controlled by thermostatic valves (mutual influence).

Mounting

After removing the front panel by pressing the locating lug at the lower side the socket can be mounted at the desired location using the enclosed dowel pins and screws. The cable for the bus connection has to be led through the lower cut-out of the socket.

Recommended connecting cable:

$$ J - Y (S T) Y 1 \times 2 \times 0. 6 m m ^ {2} $$

Maximum length: 100 m

Note:

For new installations use a under-plaster wiring box for perfect wiring.

Terminal assignment

The wiring between remote unit and standard unit or boiler control panel has to be made by a shielded data bus cable at terminals A and B of both units. The connecting terminals may not be changed and have to be installed according to the labelling of the terminals A/B in the wall socket. Changing the terminals causes no displaying.

Socket (unit removed)

After completing the electrical wiring hang remote unit conclusively on top side according figure on page 11 and turn down until it clicks into the wall socket.

Electrical connections (control unit)

See installation instructions of control unit.

Data bus addressing

In order to guarantee a selective communication between remote units and control units it is necessary to set every remote unit in the bi-directional data bus system to the corresponding data bus address.

This concerns in the same way the coupling of control units for extension of heating circuits, which communicate on the same data bus line.

By this reason control units and remote units are equipped with data bus addresses.

Data bus address (control unit)

Single control units must always have the address 10. In heating plants with several control units (maximum 5) the main controller that works on the burner gets the data bus address 10, the remaining controllers have to be set to addresses 20, 30, 40 and 50 one after the next.

Adjustment of data bus address of the control unit

To adjust the data bus address in the control unit the corresponding specialist code must be entered in the data bus level first (see starting up the control unit).

Adjustment of data bus address of the remote unit

The assignment between the data bus addresses of the control units and remote units is to a fixed factory preset scheme in accordance with the following table:

Equipment Outdoor sensor AF (OT)

FERROLI Theta+ - Equipment Outdoor sensor AF (OT) - 1

natural_image Circular mechanical component with two mounting holes (no text or symbols visible)

Outdoor sensor AF 200

Mounting location

The outdoor sensor should be installed on the most exposed and coldest side of the building (north or north-west) so that it does not collect any direct sun light particularly in the morning.

Note: Chose the corresponding side of building due to the direction of the preferential living area.

Never mount sensor onto external heat sources such as chimneys, hot air from air shafts, sunlight or black undergrounds etc. since this will falsify the measured values considerably. The cable outlet must be directed downwards in order to avoid the intrusion of moisture.

Electrical installation

1- Install sensor cable to the sensor location
2- Loosen lid screws and remove top
3- Mount open sensor case with enclosed central fixing screw. Use sealing ring! Cable outlet must be directed downwards!
4- Insert sensor cable. The cable insulation must be encircled by the sealing lips of cable entry.
5- Set up electrical connection. For the electrical installation preferably a 2-core cable with at least sectional view of 1mm^2 is recommended.

The connection is made at the screw terminal block inside the sensor case and may be changed.

6- Put on lid again and screw it firmly with the case. Pay attention to correct seat of sealing ring.

Code-Input

Specialist code

After entering the specialist code the parameters which are certain for the heating specialist are released and can be processed according to the heating plant design.

To enter the specialist code the buttons and have to be pressed simultaneously for approx. 3 seconds until the request to enter the code will be displayed.

i + B CODE 1000

Every flashing digit can be modified with the rotary knob according to the code number and confirmed by pressing the knob once. The further digits are treated in same way.

After entering all digits correctly and confirming the last digit the specialist code is accepted by displaying INSTALLER OK, with wrong entry the message CODE ERROR will appear.

INSTALLER OK

CODE ERROR

The factory preset code for the specialist is 1234

Note: Contact boiler manufacturer if the factory preset specialist code is not accepted!

Important: Released parameters are locked again if for the duration of no further service occurs. In this case the specialist code must be entered again.

Automatic SET-Function

This function allows to remove heating or hot water circuits from operation.

The control circuits are registered automatically, if their corresponding sensors are connected and provide acceptable measuring values. Control circuits without the corresponding sensors remain automatically without consideration.

The automatic set function will be activated after every switch-on.

Automatical activation

Provided that the auto-set function is turned on (see SYSTEM-Level - parameter 14) and the initial start-up date was not yet stored, connected or disconnected sensors will be registered automatically at every switch-on of the control unit. During this time error messages of sensors (short circuit or interruption) will be suppressed.

After the initial start-up date was stored, a modified sensor configuration can only be taken over by manual activation.

Manual activation

AUTO-SET function can be manually activated at any time by keeping the rotary knob pressed during the segment test when switching control unit on.

FERROLI Theta+ - Manual activation - 1

flowchart
graph TD
    A["Basic Display"] --> B["Device 2233B/VICE 20 V 3.3"]
    B --> C["Auto Set"]
    C --> D["Display"]

The auto set function registers the following sensors:

  • Outdoor sensor
  • Flow sensor 1
  • Flow sensor 2
  • Hot water tank sensor
    – Heat generator /boiler sensor

Furthermore the auto set function is carried out only, if the control circuits which are assigned to the corresponding sensors were parameterised in the respective levels.

For the hot water sensor:

HYDRAULIC Level

Parameter 2 - Function DHW charging pump Setting range OFF or 1 (DHW charging pump)

For the supply sensor 1:

HYDRAULIC Level

Parameter 3 - Function mix. heating circuit 1 Setting range OFF or 3 (mix. heating circuit)

For the supply sensor 2:

HYDRAULIC Level

Parameter 4 - Function mix. heating circuit 2 Setting range OFF or 3 (mix. heating circuit)

For the boiler sensor:

Level HEAT GENERATOR

Parameter 1 – Type of heat generator Setting range OFF or 1 (1-stage-burner)

With that a programmed parameterisation will not be changed again, the current values will be checked before. A modification is carried out only if one of the adjustments listed above is given. In this way the auto set function for example never can cancel a return flow increase of mixer heating circuit 2, or can function it to a mixer heating circuit.

Alarm messages

In order to set up a precise diagnosis in the case of malfunction the control system is equipped with an extensive alarm message system. An occurring error is always announced in the display of the corresponding basic control and stored.

There are five different categories of alarm messages:

1 - Sensor alarm messages

Sensor values which are not in their respective measuring range will either be sensor breaks or sensor short circuits. They appear with an error message according to their use.

2 - Boiler alarm messages

This messages depend on the actual switching conditions. They appear with the corresponding error message, depending on the version and allocation.

3 - Logical alarm messages

These messages will react on the actual control result. They appear with the corresponding error message, depending on the version and allocation.

4 - Bus alarm messages

These messages display address problems such as double addresses or not recognizing addresses within the data bus system. They appear with the corresponding error message, depending on the version and allocation.

5 - Alarm messages from boiler control

These alarm messages are transmitted by the boiler control system via a data interface and are displayed or stored in the control unit. More detailed information regarding alarm messages can be found in the boiler documentation.

Display and further processing of logical error messages can be enabled or disabled by using the respective parameterisation in THETA (see SYSTEM level-parameter 13 logical error message).

Further processing in case of alarm messages:

  • Alarms will be indicated in the basic display of the control unit
    – System errors appear in the information level beside the corresponding information
  • Alarm messages are loaded into a alarm message log (see description below)
  • Alarm messages activate in case of corresponding parameterisation an alarm output for optical or audible signallers.
  • Alarm messages are transmitted via data bus to corresponding gateways.

Malfunction log

The control unit has a malfunction log in which a maximum of 20 alarm messages can be saved. The alarm messages are displayed with date, time and malfunction type (error number). The query is carried out in the sequence of the entered alarm messages in the level ALARM.

The last (= most recent) alarm message is in first position (No. 01); the previous alarm messages are shifted down by a position upon each new alarm message. The last (20.) alarm message is deleted when a new message appears.

Alarm messages from condensing boiler controls represent a special feature. If enabled (SYSTEM parameters 27 and 28), these will be written into an own alarm message memory.

Note: Only the last 5 alarm messages will be displayed in ALARM level in the room devices. System parameters 27 and 28 are not available for room units!
