Fitting and Connecting the Vitotrol 200-E
Note: Electronic assemblies can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Prior to commencing any work, touch earthed objects such as heating or water pipes to discharge static loads.
Connection
2 wire cable of at least 21 AWG; wires are interchangeable. Cable length: Max. 150 ft. (50 m). Total length of all PlusBus subscribers: Max. 150 ft. (50 m).
Note: Never route the cable to the remote control immediately next to 120V or other high voltage cables.
Connection to the boiler with external plug: See the boiler installation and service instructions.
Note on B and C: If making the connection to the boiler with screw terminals for the BUS connection, disconnect plug 74 and connect the wires directly.

Commissioning
Configuring the Remote Control
Up to 4 heating circuits can be operated with one Vitotrol 200-E. Maximum of two Vitotrol 200-E can be connected to one control unit.
The remote control must be configured during commissioning:
- If no Vitotrol 200-E has previously been connected to the heating system: See chapter "Reconfiguration".
- If a Vitotrol 200-E previously connected to the heating system is being replaced with a new Vitotrol 200-E: See chapter "Configuration following replacement of the remote control".
- If there is already a Vitotrol 200-E connected to the heating system and an additional Vitotrol 200-E is being fitted: See chapter "Configuration of an additional remote control".
Reconfiguration
- Switch ON the power supply on the control unit.
- With [up/down arrows] select the language.
- Press OK to confirm.
- With [up/down arrows] select the subscriber number, e.g. 1. Note: To return to the configuration, press [back button] and [?] simultaneously for approximately 5 sec.
- Press OK to confirm.
- If available: Mark the room temperature sensor with OK. Use [up/down arrows] to select "Save with OK". The operating status of the heating circuits/system is transmitted. A progress bar appears on the display. This process may take several minutes. When the progress bar disappears, the configuration is complete. Note: To return to the configuration, press [back button] and [?] simultaneously for approx. 5 sec.
- Configure the remote control at the control unit.
Control unit installation and service instructions
A progress bar appears on the display of the remote control while the control unit is being configured.
Configuration following replacement of the remote control
- Look at the fault message on the control unit of the boiler to find the subscriber number of the remote control (48, 49, 50 or 51).
- Look in the following table to find the correct subscriber number that needs to be set at the new remote control (1, 2, 3 or 4).
- Follow the steps detailed in chapter "Reconfiguration". Set the subscriber number specified in the table.
| Subscriber number shown at the control unit | Subscriber number to be set at the remote control |
|---|---|
| 48 | 1 |
| 49 | 2 |
| 50 | 3 |
| 51 | 4 |
Configuration of an additional remote control
- Call up the subscriber number of the existing remote control at the control unit of the boiler: In the "Service" menu, look under "Appliances detected" to see which of the subscriber numbers are already assigned to other remote controls (48, 49, 50 or 51).
- In the following table, look for one of the unassigned subscriber numbers. Read off the relevant subscriber number that needs to be set at the new remote control (1, 2, 3 or 4).
| Subscriber number shown at the control unit | Subscriber number to be set at the remote control |
|---|---|
| 48 | 1 |
| 49 | 2 |
| 50 | 3 |
| 51 | 4 |
