An operating display (lamp, contactor, etc.) can be connected to the control circuit board for external monitoring of the ventilation unit by a building supervisor, for example. For this purpose, there is potential-free relay contact on the control circuit board “k1”.
Relay contact “k1” is closed when the ventilation unit is running. Maximum load-bearing capacity for relay contact k1 = 3A / 250 V AC, 2A / 30 V DC.

When connecting a CO2 or VOC sensor for the demand-driven fresh air supply. The ventilation unit only reacts to the sensor if ventilation level 2 (nominal ventilation) is selected on the room air control.
If a CO2/VOC sensor is connected, only one RLS 1 WR room air control may be connected.
Never operate an EAQ 10/2 air quality sensor together with a CO2 sensor.

W1 - 230 V AC connection cable
W2, W2´ - Control cable for room air control
W4 - Connection cable for external hygrostats (to be supplied by the customer). Connection to A2 control circuit board at CO2 terminals
When connecting a hygrostat with potential-free contact for demand-driven removal of moisture, the hygrostat must have a potential-free switching output.
The hygrostat always switches the ventilation unit to ventilation level 3 if the set humidity value is exceeded (potential-free contact in hygrostat closes).
If the humidity in the room drops, the ventilation unit switches back to the previously selected ventilation level.
If you switch manually from ventilation level 3 to level 2 or 1, this deactivates the automatic function of the hygrostat temporarily. This is then switched back to active if the level drops below the hygrostat set point once.
Connect the hygrostat to terminal "CO2".
Jumper 10 on the A2 control circuit board must be open.
Set the switching point at the hygrostat manually.
Never connect a hygrostat and a CO2 sensor/VOC sensor at the same time.

k - Switching output, potential-free relay contact
W5 - Connection cable for differential pressure controller (provided by customer)
If there is negative pressure in the room, the differential pressure controller switches the fans in the ventilation unit off. This blocks the room air control RLS 1 WR. The LED display goes out. The unit is only released again when the differential pressure controller switches the fans back on. The ventilation unit runs again at the same ventilation level
as before it was blocked.

T1 - Supply air temperature sensor in
supply air channel (provided by customer)
W1 - 230 V AC connection cable
W2, W2´ - Control cable for room air control
W6 - Connection cable of supply air temperature sensor. Connection on GW1 circuit board to KL2 terminals.
For WS 170 in passive-energy houses, an NTC 15 must also be installed to protect against icing over (if the supply air is too cold). The ventilation unit then switches off at supply air temperatures of less than 6 °C.
Only in Comfort and Bypass units when deploying a supply air temperature sensor: Remove the resistor on GW1 circuit board at the KL2 terminals.
