TECH CONTROLLERS EU-M-12t User Manual
This manual provides detailed information on the installation, setup, and operation of the TECH CONTROLLERS EU-M-12t control panel.
I. Safety
Before using the device, read the following regulations carefully. Failure to comply may lead to personal injury or controller damage. Store the manual in a safe place for future reference. Ensure all users are familiar with the operation and security functions. The manufacturer is not responsible for injuries or damage resulting from negligence. Users must take necessary safety measures to protect their lives and property.
WARNING:
- High voltage! Ensure the regulator is disconnected from the mains before any power supply activities (plugging cables, installation).
- The device should be installed by a qualified electrician.
- Before starting the controller, measure the earthing resistance of electric motors and the insulation resistance of cables.
- The regulator should not be operated by children.
WARNING:
- The device may be damaged by lightning. Disconnect the power supply during storms.
- Any use other than specified by the manufacturer is forbidden.
- Check cable condition before and during the heating season. Ensure the controller is properly mounted and clean it if dusty or dirty.
Changes in products described in this manual may occur. The manufacturer reserves the right to introduce changes to structure or colors. Illustrations may include additional equipment. Print technology may result in color differences.
TECH CONTROLLERS prioritizes environmental care. Electronic devices must be disposed of safely. The symbol of a crossed-out rubbish bin indicates that the product must not be thrown into ordinary waste bins. Segregating waste for recycling helps protect the environment. Users are responsible for transferring waste electrical and electronic equipment to designated collection points.
II. Description of the Device
The EU-M-12t control panel operates with the EU-L-12 controller and manages subordinate room controllers, sensors, and thermostatic actuators. It supports wired RS 485 and wireless communication. The panel allows system management by controlling and editing settings for heating devices in individual zones, including pre-set temperature, floor heating, and schedules.
CAUTION: Only one panel can be installed in the system, supporting up to 40 heating zones.
Functions and equipment of the controller:
- Controls EU-L-12 and EU-ML-12 controllers, thermostatic actuators, room controllers, and wired/wireless temperature sensors (e.g., EU-R-8b Plus, EU-C-8r). Displays information in full color on a large glass screen.
- Allows online control of the heating system via https://emodul.eu.
- Includes the EU-MZ-RS power supply.
- Features a large, color glass display.
The control panel itself does not measure temperature; it relies on registered controllers and sensors.
III. Installing the Controller
The EU-M-12t panel is designed for mounting in an electrical box and requires installation by a qualified person. To mount the panel, screw the rear housing part onto the wall (1) and slide the device into it (2). The EU-M-12t panel works with the EU-MZ-RS power supply (3), which is included in the set and mounted near the heating device.
Diagram Description (Page 5): Shows the EU-M-12t panel (2) being mounted onto a wall bracket (1), with the EU-MZ-RS power supply (3) nearby.
Diagram Description (Page 6): Illustrates wiring connections. Shows a power supply unit, a controller unit (EU-L-12), and the EU-M-12t panel. It details the connection of power and communication cables (GND, VCC, A/YELLOW, B/GREEN) between these units.
Diagram Description (Page 7): Provides a detailed wiring diagram showing connections between the EU-L-12 controller, the EU-M-12t panel, and a 230V power source. It specifies wire colors (YELLOW, GREEN, BROWN, GND/WHITE) for different terminals like RS VALVE, RS INTERNET, SENSOR, OPENTHERM, etc.
WARNING: Danger of injury or death due to electric shock on live connections. Disconnect power supply before working on the device and secure it against accidental switching on.
CAUTION: Incorrect wiring may damage the controller.
The panel should be connected to the first or last controller as it cannot be equipped with a terminating resistor. Refer to the EU-L-12 manual for termination connection details.
IV. First Startup
Registration the Panel in the Controller
For correct operation, the panel must be connected to the EU-L-12 controller and registered. Follow these steps:
- Connect the panel to the controller and both devices to the power supply.
- In the EU-L-12 controller, navigate to:
Menu
→Fitter's menu
→Control Panel
→Device Type
. Select wired or wireless registration based on assembly type. - On the EU-M-12t panel screen, click the
Register
option.
After successful registration, data synchronizes, and the panel is ready.
CAUTION: Registration is successful only if the system versions of the registered devices are compatible.
CAUTION: If factory settings are restored or the panel is unregistered, the registration process must be repeated.
