Commissioning

6 Commissioning

6.1

Commissioning of the device is always carried out via the Web-based surface of the System

Access Point. It is assumed that the basic commissioning steps of the overall system have already been carried out. Knowledge about the Web-based commissioning software of the

System Access Point is assumed.

The System Access Point establishes the connection between the free@home participants and the smartphone, tablet or PC. The System Access Point is used to identify and program the participants during commissioning.

When energized, Basic and Comfort thermostats that have not been programmed are in programming mode for 10 minutes and can be logged into the system. Programmed devices share information about their type and supported functions with the System Access Point.

During initial commissioning all devices are given a universal name. The installer must change this name within the commissioning process to a name practical and specific for the system.

The devices must be parameterised for the use of additional functions.

Note

General information about commissioning and parameterization is available in the ABB-free@home ® system manual.

Coupling of wireless devices with the System Access Point free@home wireless devices must first be coupled with the System Access Point before they can be used in a project. The devices exchange a security key during the coupling process.

Communication between devices is carried out encrypted after coupling and they are firmly connected with the System Access Point. Coupled devices cannot be connected with a different

System Access Point. They must first be reset to the factory settings.

Note

Separate commissioning is carried out for thermostats.

Carry out the following steps to couple one or several devices with the system:

1. Install the free@home wireless device(s).

2. Use your smartphone, tablet or PC to call up the user interface of the System Access Point that is ready for use.

3. Remove the batteries from the device.

4. Start the scanning mode ("Settings" > "free@home-Wireless" > "Search for wireless devices“).

■

The System Access Point consecutively scans all free@home wireless devices. Devices that are in programming mode are integrated automatically into the system. The scanning process ends 10 minutes after the last device has been found.

Integrated devices are listed in the "Device list" of the user interface.

6. Use the serial numbers to check whether all installed devices have been found.

■

If a device has not been found, reset it to the factory settings and start a new scanning process.

Possible reasons for not finding devices:

– The device is not in programming mode.

– The 10-minute programming time has expired.

– The device has already been coupled with a different system.
