to installers and end users.

The Q-Stream evolution

extracts air from the home. In
most cases, this air is extracted
from the kitchen, toilet and bathroom.
During the heating season, the air
extracted from the home is warmer
than the outside air. For this reason
it is important not to ventilate too
much. Because this system works on
humidity control as standard and can
be expanded with CO2 sensors and
controls,

How Q-Stream evolution works

The Q-Stream evolution provides a basic ventilation system. This
residential fan includes a humidity sensor that permanently measures
the humidity of the air drawn in from the home and ensures that the
system automatically switches to a higher extraction capacity when
showering or cooking.

Both the controls and the CO2 sensor have exactly the same options. The
following options can be activated on the control and CO2 sensor itself: •
Ventilate more; • Ventilate less; • Automatic mode

Automatically determines the extracted air volume based on the

detected humidity. If no increased humidity is detected, the system will
ventilate in a low setting; • Night mode Night ventilation takes place in
an increased ventilation mode.

This setting is lower than the maximum automatic setting, but higher
than the low setting. Because all residents are at home during the
night, increased ventilation is necessary. This position is also suitable
for presence during the evening (or possibly during the day);

• Booster position
Maximum boost ventilation position for accelerated refreshing of
the indoor air. This position is higher than the maximum automatic
position; • Holiday mode

Residential fan and controls

A compact, intelligent and energy-efficient domestic fan that can operate
autonomously and is equipped with built-in air quality sensors and can
communicate with the room sensors and controls.

The sensors and controls are identical in design. There are three
different controls and two different CO2 sensors, namely:

Operation
1. Battery operated operation
2. Box powered operation (12V)
3. Mains powered operation (230V)

CO2 sensor
4. Box powered sensor (12V)
5. Mains powered sensor (230V)

Activating the functions Buttons 1, 2

and 3 have different functions when pressed briefly (shortpress) and long
(longpress).

Short press is <1 sec, long press is >2 sec. The functions are described below,
as is the LED feedback.

The LEDs turn off automatically after 2 seconds and reactivate at the touch of a
button.

When the link button of the residential fan is pressed, it is in a connection mode for
two minutes. This action is required before you can continue registering the control
and/or sensor.

Logging in
Pressing buttons 1 and 3 at the same time provides a connection with the
Q-Stream evolution.
LED feedback: all LEDs run back and forth until the connection has
been made. When the devices have recognized each other, the LEDs
go out automatically.
The link/login button on the Q-Stream evolution residential fan provides
the following feedback.
The LEDs on the Q-Stream evolution flash continuously until the
network is closed again by pressing the link button again. If you do
not press the button, the network closes automatically.
Both are possible in the order of registration, first residential fan,
then sensor/control or vice versa.

Shortpress
Button 1: (-) lower ventilation position.
LED feedback: one LED keeps disappearing, to a minimum of one LED.

The LED(s) light up for 2 seconds and do not flash.

Button 2: (A) activate automatic mode.
LED feedback: LEDs ramp up, from 4 to 7.
The LED(s) light up for 2 seconds and do not flash.
Button 3: (+) higher ventilation position.
LED feedback: one LED is added at a time, up to a maximum of four
LEDs.
The LED(s) light up for 2 seconds and do not flash.

Power supply
Box-powered and mains-powered
The sensor / control, with the exception of the battery-powered control,
can be supplied with voltage in two ways.

Box-
powered This means that there is a wired connection between the domestic
fan and the sensor/control. In this case there is a power line and a
communication line. Wireless communication is disabled in this variant.
The connection diagram is described under the following illustrations.

Mains powered
This means that there is a wireless connection between the domestic fan
and the sensor/control. The sensor/control is equipped with a 230V-9V
transformer that can be connected to mains power. The connection
diagram is described under the following illustrations. However, the
transformer is already connected and connected to the sensor/control at
the time of purchase. If this is used later, please note that it may only be
connected by a recognized electrical installer.

The illustrations on the next page show the mains-powered

control or sensor at the top right, clearly showing the already
connected transformer block. The two wires must be connected to the
mains circuit of the house by means of a connecting terminal, with the
blue wire being neutral and the brown wire

wire the phase. At the top right is the 12V wired control or sensor.
This is connected to the modbus circuit both on the Q-Stream
evolution residential fan and on the control/sensor. The 4-core cable
must be connected to both devices according to the Modbus connection
diagram. The picture below right shows the Modbus connector of the
domestic fan (top right) and the sensor/control (top left). 1 is the 12V
max connection, 2 is the Modbus B communication line, 3 is the Modbus
A communication line and 4 is the GND (ground).

Situation 1: wired
• The bottom right image is the connector of the box and the bottom
left of the sensor.
In both cases: •
1=GND • 2=A
(data) • 3=B (data)
• 4=12V • One
must ensure that 1
goes into 1 etc.

Case 2: wireless
Supplied assembled with transformer block (black wire in GND; red
wire in 12V).

Frequently Asked Questions

My ventilation system does not respond to the battery-operated
control • The battery of the control may be empty. This can be checked
by activating the control. If no feedback is visible via the LEDs after
pressing, the batteries are probably empty. Insert new batteries.

• The domestic fan is out of reach of the controls.

Armament and the use of insulating foils can send the range of your
control. Operate the system again at a location closer to the domestic
fan.

My ventilation system does not respond to the

sensors • The sensors may be switched off. These can be switched on
again by activating the automatic mode on the sensor itself.
• Indoor air is of sufficient quality so that the sensors do not
detect pollution.

My ventilation system continues to ventilate at a high

level • Indoor air is of insufficient quality • System is in
night mode • System is in high mode • System is in boost
mode

In all cases, the system works normally

The power has been off the system, what should I do? • After
a power failure, the system will start up in automatic mode. The domestic
fan and the control remain linked and all settings are retained. So
you don't have to do anything else.

For all other questions, please contact our colleagues in the Aftersales
department. Available via aftersales@buva.nl and 0180-69 75 00.
