RF 1 wiring

[jelboy]

I have just had to replace my junction box so I put in a Honeywell wiring centre but now my boiler ignores my rf1 and keeps the 3 way open ... Anybody know which terms the rf1 go into in the honeywell centre? 1 and 3 i thught but to no avail... The receiver is communicationg with the stat ok... Any thoughts please

I have a Drayton RF 1 wireless stat and am wiring it into a Honeywell wiring centre (the simpletons one with it all laid out for you) Options in the wiring centre are 1, 2, 3 and earth..
Thanks for your reply

what boiler do you have

is it a combi or heatonly

wiring centre normally have a strip of ten terminals?

 

[jelboy]

A Worcester 24 Ri and the wiring centre is not the junction box type, it is the Honeywell one with the basic pcb and terminals for each component, stats, boiler etc.. I think the wiring on my Tempus 7 could be at fault - I have the HW on and off wired and the CH on wired.. I sthat correct? The boiler is currently ignoring the programmer and runs on its own!
Thanks again

Have you got the honeywell MI that shows you faults and how to cure them?

Depending on how your system is controlled, you may have to cut certain links in wiring centre

 

[jelboy]

I don't have the MI but in the wiring centre it tells you which links to cut.. which I have done. The boiler is now responding to the programmer ok but still not the stat! I have it wired into 1 and 3 but it really doesn't do anything! Any ideas?
Thanks

Have run thru it and boiler STILL IGNORES stat!!

What aint it doing?

 

[jelboy]

The boiler is still ignoring the stat...
I have put my meter across the wiring from the rf1 and it has continuity all the time.. with stat up or down. That ain't right surely?!!
Thanks

what happens if you remove one stat wire (carefully)
does boiler go off

 

[jelboy]

Yes boiler goes off.
Think I will get a Honeywell dial stat tomorrow and test to see if my wireless has lost the plot!
Thanks for all your help

Wire the reciever unit to permanent live,neutral and earth.
wire boiler to voltage free relay.

Either the SCR (receiver) is not wired correctly or there is no communication between the Wall unit and the SCR.
