Siemens RDG100 Thermostat Details

The Siemens RDG100 thermostat is engineered for a diverse range of HVAC applications, ensuring optimal climate control in various settings. It supports 2-pipe fan coil units, including configurations with electric heaters or integrated radiator/floor heating. Furthermore, it's suitable for 4-pipe fan coil units, 2-stage heating or cooling setups, and universal heating/cooling systems, even accommodating compressors in DX-type equipment.

This thermostat provides significant flexibility through its two multifunctional inputs (X1, X2) and one digital input (D1). These inputs can be freely configured for purposes such as keycard contact, external temperature sensors (room or return air), dewpoint monitoring, electric heater enablement, or fault signaling. This adaptability allows for tailored control strategies based on specific room or system requirements.

Users can choose between several operating modes: Comfort, Economy, and Protection, which can be selected via the thermostat's operating mode button or external contacts. For models like the RDG100T, an additional Auto Timer mode is available, featuring 8 programmable timers to automatically switch between Comfort and Economy modes throughout the week, complete with a 48-hour power reserve clock.

Beyond standard temperature maintenance, the RDG100 incorporates several advanced features. An automatic or manual heating/cooling changeover function ensures seamless transition between seasons. To prevent issues in 2-pipe changeover systems, a configurable purge function periodically opens the valve to ensure accurate medium temperature acquisition.

Fan control is highly customizable, offering automatic or manual operation for 1-speed or 3-speed fans. Features like "Fan kick" periodically run the fan at low speed during the dead zone to enhance air circulation and prevent moisture damage. A "Fan start booster" momentarily increases fan speed to overcome inertia, and "Fan overrun" ensures adequate cooling after the electric heater switches off.

For energy efficiency and comfort, the thermostat includes minimum and maximum setpoint limitations, preventing extreme temperature settings. A "Clean fan filter reminder" proactively alerts users when maintenance is due, contributing to system longevity and efficiency. Furthermore, a button lock function, either automatic or manual, prevents unauthorized adjustments to settings.

The thermostat also supports "Extended Comfort" and "Temporary Timer" functions, allowing occupants to briefly override standard operating modes for increased presence or absence. For the RDG100T model, an infrared remote control receiver provides convenient remote adjustment of operating modes and setpoints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can't find the answer you need? Here are some frequently asked questions about the Siemens RDG100 Thermostat, and we answer them below.


How do I adjust the room temperature on my RDG100 thermostat?
The room temperature setpoint can be adjusted using the rotary knob when the thermostat is in Comfort mode. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the temperature and counterclockwise to decrease it.

What are the main operating modes available on the RDG100 thermostat?
The RDG100 offers Comfort, Economy, and Protection modes. For the RDG100T model, an additional Auto Timer mode with programmable schedules is also available.

How does the fan control work on this thermostat?
The fan can operate in Automatic mode, where speed is determined by the thermostat's logic based on the setpoint and room temperature, or in Manual mode, where it runs continuously at a selected speed (Low, Medium, or High).

What is the purpose of the 'Protection mode'?
Protection mode safeguards the room against frost (default 8 °C / 46 °F heating setpoint) and can also be configured for overheating protection (default OFF for cooling), preventing damage during unoccupied periods.

Can I limit the range of temperatures that can be set on the thermostat?
Yes, the setpoint range for Comfort mode can be limited by setting minimum (P09) and maximum (P10) parameters, which helps in energy saving and maintaining a comfortable environment.

What is the 'Purge function' and why is it important?
The purge function (parameter P50) is recommended for 2-pipe changeover systems with 2-port valves. It periodically opens the valve during off-hours to ensure the changeover sensor accurately acquires the water temperature, even when the valve has been closed for extended periods.

What does the 'Clean fan filter reminder' indicate?
This function (configured via P62) counts fan operating hours and displays a "FIL" message when a threshold is reached, reminding the user to clean or replace the fan filter. It does not affect thermostat operation.

How can I lock the buttons on my RDG100 thermostat?
The buttons can be manually locked or unlocked by pressing and holding the fan mode button for 3 seconds, if parameter P14 is set to '2' (manual locked). If P14 is set to '1' (auto locked), buttons will lock automatically after 10 seconds of inactivity.

What is the 'Temporary timer for extended presence or absence' feature?
This allows users to temporarily extend Comfort mode (for presence) or Economy/Protection mode (for absence) by 0.5 to 9.5 hours, overriding the current operating mode for a set duration.

What should I do if my thermostat displays 'Er1'?
An 'Er1' message indicates a failure of the built-in temperature sensor. If no external sensor is connected or configured, the thermostat may need to be replaced.

Where is the ideal mounting location for the RDG100 thermostat?
The thermostat should be mounted in a clean, dry indoor location, approximately 1.5 meters (5 feet) above the floor. Avoid niches, bookshelves, behind curtains, direct solar radiation, or proximity to heat sources. Do not mount on a metallic surface.

Are there any specific wiring precautions for the RDG100?
Yes, adhere to local regulations for wiring and protection. An external circuit breaker (max. C 10 A) is required for the AC 230 V supply. Fan outputs must not be connected in parallel, and cable diameters should match the overcurrent protection. Inputs X1-M and X2-M carry mains potential and must be insulated if the conduit box carries mains voltage.
