It follows your schedule! Schedule your central heating to come on when you need it, setting two different weekly schedules. It is also possible to create five different scenarios related to multiple temperature requirements (“day”, “night”, “evening”, “out of home”, etc.).
Consumptions under control It provides a guide to how much energy your heating system is using showing weekly, monthly or annual consumptions graphs.
It helps you saving money! Baxi Mago allows you saving money on your energy bills: thanks to the control from smartphone or tablet, it is possible to reduce the temperature while you are away, with saving on consuptions. Furthermore, it modulates the power of the boiler with less consumptions both on heating and DHW production.
3 Features and communication protocols
The different communication protocols are listed below: the protocol must be chosen according to the boiler. R-BUS R-BUS is the communication protocol, owned by BDR THERMEA, used in the new platform of products such as Prime and heat pumps (PBS-i WH2; PBS-i FS2). The product based on this protocol can be connected directly to Baxi Mago, without any gateway. OpenTherm (OT) OpenTherm (OT) is a standard communication protocol used in the heating systems between the boiler and the thermostat. As a standard protocol, it doesn’t depend on the producer. Some features have been implemented to allow Baxi Mago working with heating systems of other brands. OT communicates with 2 wires, indipendant from the polarity and without batteries. GTW16 (OT) is listed, with all technical information, in the website of OpenTherm Association. BSB BSB is not an open standard protocol, it is a BUS communication protocol, owned by SIEMENS. To use Baxi Mago with Baxi products based on this protocol, it is necessary to install GTW17 between Baxi Mago and the boiler. BSB has a specific polarity that must be respected: usually, the information regarding the polarity are in the manual of the boiler.

Positioning the chronothermostat
The room unit must be positioned taking into account the following factors: • On an internal wall • Away from draughts • 1.2-1.5m from the floor • Not behind doors, bookcases or other objects • Not in direct sunlight • In a room where the user spends most of their time • Away from heat sources (fireplace, radiators, light, candles, etc.)
Presence sensor
The main screen of the display lights up as you move your hand towards the thermostat or when passing by. The presence sensor allows the display to turn off automatically when going away, with energy savings.
