6.2.2 Wireless

The wireless connection is divided into 2 types:
•

Connection via a ‘modbus’ protocol.

•

Control via an application.

!Caution

Only 1 type of wireless connection is possible on the communication module.

6.2.2.1 Connection via ‘modbus’ protocol

Wireless connection of a Domotics system to the receiver is possible via a connection according to the ‘modbus’ 
protocol. Such a connection can only be established with a communication module (see Appendix 3, fig. 35 (W)). 
This module can be ordered from DRU. This communication module translates the ‘modbus’ protocol from the 
Domotics system into a wireless signal to the receiver.

When connecting a Domotics system via the communication module to the receiver, proceed as follows:

Ø

Use the remote control to test whether the location where the communication module will be placed is within the 
reach of the receiver.

Ø

Place the remote control on this location and test the reception sensitivity (RSSI).

Ø

Press the on/off button and down arrow at the same time. The value that is now visible, must be between -20 and 
-70 (see User Manual, "Reception Sensitivity"). If needed, hold the remote control closer to the appliance in order 
to improve the reception.

Ø

Connect the communication module by means of an RJ45 plug, according to the instructions in the manual that is 
supplied with this module.

Ø

Now follow the steps described in the ‘modbus’ protocol manual. It is available from the supplier of the domotics 
system.

6.2.2.2 Control via application

Also when operating the appliance via a tablet provided with the DRU Control App (iOS or Android), you will need 
a communication module. This module can be ordered from DRU.

In order to control the fire via an application, proceed as follows:

Ø

Using the remote control, test whether the location where you want to place the communication module is within 
the receiver's range.

Ø

Place the remote control on this location and test the reception sensitivity (RSSI).

Ø

Press the on/off button and down arrow at the same time. The value that is now visible, must be between -20 and 
-70 (see User Manual, "Reception Sensitivity"). If needed, hold the remote control closer to the appliance in order 
to improve the reception.

Ø

Connect the communication module by means of an RJ45 plug, according to the instructions in the manual that is 
supplied with the communication module.

Ø

Use the instructions for the application in order to install it.
