    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    FYI, I compared the gas meter before leaving and when I came back, and this confirmed that the new thermostat solved the problem I had.

    Replacing Drayton Digistat SCR with Honeywell BDR91

    Thank you very much. No. I was thinking of replacing both units. The BDR91 and CM927 seem to have good reviews and go for cheap on eBay. (Though I'll delay the replacement as Drayton has offered to send me another thermostat, so I'll test that first.) Because it is a different topic! This...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    I'm not sure where this aggressiveness comes from and apologise if I'm the cause of it. Anyway, I didn't demand anything from Drayton. I'm experiencing a failure with their kit. I tried to diagnose it and got much help in this forum. I contacted them described the fact and suggested my...

    Replacing Drayton Digistat SCR with Honeywell BDR91

    Hi, I'm looking to replace my current Drayton Digistat SCR with a Honeywell system. The wiring on my SCR is: N - Blue (1st cable) L - Brown (1st cable) 1 - Blue (2nd cable) 2 3 - Brown (2nd cable) 4 What should the wiring for the Honeywell BDR91 unit be? Should it be: N - Blue (1st cable)...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    I did go back to them, but I haven't got any further response (yet). I don't think I can invoke the Trade Description and Sale of Goods Act as this was installed four or five years ago before we moved in. So although I agree that it is not fit for purpose, it is likely too late and I'm not the...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    Update... I received on Saturday a new SCR sent by Drayton/Schneider Electric. I installed it when I came back in the night. I paired our thermostat (I had taken its battery out as there was no point fighting with the ghost thermostat) and set it to a low temperature. Sunday morning our flat...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    I'll give a go with the the new SCR when I receive it, but if the issue persists I'll likely replace it with a Honeywell system (they are much cheaper on eBay than the Drayton and appear to have a good reputation). If I have to do that I hope I can find some good instructions on how to change...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    For those following this thread, earlier today I got an email response from Drayton and their diagnosis is that I likely have 'a failed SCR'. They are kindly offering me a replacement. If their diagnosis is correct, the replacement will fix things. If, however, my earlier guess is what's...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    I started asking a couple of neighbours if they changed thermostat recently but just realised that if the range is typical as per the manual: '30m typically. The range may be affected by the composition / density and number of walls between the Digistat RF and SCR.', 30m is approximately four or...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    If that's what Drayton uses than I stand corrected. That would rule out collision possibilities though that was the most logical possibility based on the information you provided and my current reality. Edited: A further thought, even if the id is 72-bit, it is possible that not all the 72 bits...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    There are two facts that are not consistent with this suggestion: 1) This started to happen recently and I hadn't matched the thermostat and receiver for years. So how come the SCR suddenly added the identity of this remote thermostat. 2) I re-matched my thermostat just after the remote...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    I am indeed reaching that stage. Can you recommend any RF thermostat where the identity can be set and is definitely used? This doesn't seem to a be feature listed in the marketing for thermostats and I want to be sure not to end up in the same situation with another neighbour.

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    Thank you for your several responses and enquiries. There's no documentation about doing this. I do not know if the matching process described by Drayton (in the documentation I linked to in response #7) erases the SCR's memory or not. I don't either. It is not documented. I do not have...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    I thought of that last point, it is unlikely as our thermostat/SCR had worked fine for years. This remote control of the SCR happened without me re-matching the Digistat+RF and the SCR initially. I did match them hoping this might stop this remote issuing of command, but it didn't. Anyway, to...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    I agree, which is also why I'm surprised not to find any similar report. I removed the Digistat+RF from its wall support to check the PCB. No switch visible. The PCB was displaying three sticky labels: 2012 MODEL No: RF6010 (the last digit was cut but is most likely a zero) MFR Date: 08/09...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    Thank you all for the responses so far. Some additional information based on some of the responses: Tuned it to 433.925, heard the same rattle than when my thermostat sends control, rushed to the SCR unit and it had its red light flashing and then the green light switching on the boiler (when...

    Has my neighbour taken over my Drayton SCR?

    Hi, I have a Drayton Digitstat+RF thermostat synced with an SCR unit connected to a Worcester combi-boiler. This has worked fine for several years, but for the past few weeks the boiler goes on and off independently of our thermostat. When the boiler is off, raising our thermostat above room...
