New update for the Truma App (4.10.0) and Truma iNet Box (2.09.06)

New technical requirements have been realised with this update.

This includes the required adjustment of Angular JS to Version 1.8.

Furthermore, optimisations have been made, which enhance your user experience.

  1. Rework of the GSM setup for refined SIM card detection.
  2. Differentiated display of fault reports via SMS.
    You will know directly from the SMS whether a warning or fault is involved.

We look forward to your feedback on the new version.

Mover and Combi flashing codes

Some of our units have an error code that gives us more detailed information about the cause of the error.

The flashing code is similar to a Morse code. This means short and long flashing characters in an individual sequence (e.g. short, long, ls slls).

This can be used to offer faster help when contacting your dealer, service partner or our service centre.

Mover

On the Mover models, the flashing code consists of eight consecutive characters. This is repeated several times, each time starting anew after a pause of approx. three seconds.

As soon as a fault is indicated on the remote control, the LED (j) on the control unit emits the flashing code.

8 flashing signs

These mover models have the flashing code output:

  • Mover XT models
  • Mover SX
  • Mover SER/TER
  • Mover SR

l

Combi 4/6 (E)

With the Combi Gas connected to the CP classic analogue control unit, the flashing code also provides more precise information on the cause of the fault.

If the control unit reports a malfunction, the cause can be narrowed down more precisely using the flashing code on the heating board.

For Combis manufactured before 06/2018, there are eight flashes of the red LED. For Combis produced later, the number was increased to ten characters.

Combi before 06/2018 – 8 flashing signs
Combi after 06/2018 – 10 flashing signs

You are welcome to send us flashing codes by e-mail as a video or directly name them by telephone.

Peculiarities of gas cylinders in connection with the LevelControl

The LevelControl measures the cylinder level via ultrasound. For this, it is necessary that the coupling pad of the device has clean contact with the bottom of the gas cylinder.

Suitable are upright (propane / butane – LPG) steel or aluminium gas cylinders with a diameter of 200 to 350 mm.

Depending on the cylinder type and age, there may be different obstacles to clean measurement.

Here are some examples of obstacles and the corresponding solutions:

Bottle heavily rusted/dirty

Due to the uneven surfaces caused by rust, the ultrasonic signal can no longer penetrate cleanly into the bottle. A measurement is therefore not possible.

In this case, it is recommended to mount the LevelControl in such a way that the coupling pad rests on a surface that is as smooth as possible. In severe cases, the only solution is to replace the bottle.

Bottle stand base too narrow

On such a bottle, the LevelControl has no place underneath. The bottle rests with its entire weight on the LevelControl and squeezes the coupling cushion. This also means that no measurement is possible.

The supplied feet or other distance blocks can provide a remedy.

Bottle base dented/flattened on the underside

If the LevelControl is attached to the centre of such bottles, the coupling pad no longer rests on the ground as desired. A measurement is therefore not possible at this point.

In this case, simply move the LevelControl a little out of the centre.

Tank bottles/gas tanks

Tank bottles have a special interior that enables refuelling (fuel indicator, etc.). This interior deflects the ultrasonic signal of the LevelControl so that no measurement result can be calculated and displayed.

The LevelControl cannot be used on such bottles/tanks.
