To put the ViCare Repeater into operation, please proceed as follows:
- Remove the battery if necessary.*
- Insert the micro USB plug into the device.
- Plug the power supply unit into a 230V/50Hz earthed socket, max. 1m from the installation location.
New installation
For a new installation, we recommend this sequence for commissioning:
- Heat generator or ventilation unit
- ViCare Repeater
- ViCare components, e.g. ViCare Climate Sensor, ViCare Floor Heating Thermostat, ViCare Radiator Thermostat, Vitotrol etc.
Existing installation
If you integrate the ViCare radio repeater into an existing installation and the connection strength is not yet sufficient, please switch your heat generator or ventilation unit off and on again for approx. 15 minutes. If necessary, use the operating instructions for your device, which you can also find online here.
*Please note: If the device has already been registered as a ViCare Climate sensor (in battery mode), you must first reset the device to the factory setting. You can find out how to do this here. You must then reprogram the device using the ViCare app.
