I'm on shaky ground here but isn't that referring to using an external
controller with the original still in place but set to continuous? *
No, I believe you remove the whole controller from the front of the
boiler and relocated it - which is why the mounting kit I gave you the
part number for earlier includes a blanking plate to fill the hole on
the boiler
Dave, does your controller look like the one on page 14?
Yes - similar. It's called a Vitotronic 200 - the one with weather
compensation mode.
The external temperature sensor appears to connect to pin 1+2 on
connector X3 and not directly to the the Vitotronic unit so it
shouldn't make any difference.
I have every faith that if you just find pins 6+7 on connector X3,
extend them to wherever you would like the control panel and reconnect
them, it should work.
The official manufacturers part would be nice because it gives you a
proper mounting but I can't see it being necessary from a technical
point of view.
