Thermy is the climate module of the Camper Jarvis system. It connects your roof air conditioner and your fridge to the SmartKnob. You set target temperature, operating mode and night setback where you already control lights, water and energy: on the SmartKnob or in the dashboard on your phone. No extra remote, no separate control panel. Everything runs locally in the vehicle, with or without internet.

Highlights

  • Roof air conditioner on the SmartKnob: target temperature and mode, no remote
  • Fridge with data port: on and off, faults in plain words, temperature with a RuuviTag in the fridge
  • Night setback for a quiet sleep (for the fridge, with a RuuviTag in the fridge)
  • Cooling with solar surplus (with Volty, Solar Plus and a RuuviTag in the fridge)
  • Scenes and schedules, for example pre-cooling in the afternoon
  • Powered through the adapter cable straight from the device, no extra cable
  • Built-in self-diagnostics, no personal data
  • Encrypted radio link to the SmartKnob, local with or without internet

What Thermy can do

Air conditioning without a remote

Thermy speaks the language of modern roof air conditioners with a data port, for example the Dometic FreshJet. You set the target temperature, choose the operating mode and always see what the unit is doing. The little remote that is always everywhere except where you need it can stay in the drawer.

A fridge that thinks ahead

Thermy also connects modern fridges with a data port. You switch it on and off on the SmartKnob and get faults in plain words instead of decoding blink codes. With a RuuviTag in the fridge, you also see the temperature there and set it. Then Thermy can also lower the cooling at night so the compressor starts less often and you sleep in peace. RuuviTag support is coming soon.

Cooling with solar power

When the battery is full and the sun keeps shining, your fridge uses the surplus to pre-cool a little deeper. That saves power in the evening and keeps the compressor quiet for longer. This needs Volty for the battery data, the Solar Plus add-on licence and a RuuviTag in the fridge.

Comfortable on autopilot

Link Thermy to your scenes and schedules: pre-cool in the afternoon, switch to quiet night mode at bedtime or only run the air conditioner while shore power is connected. You can still control everything by hand at any time.

Plug and play instead of hunting for adapters

Thermy plugs straight into your device with a matching adapter cable and takes its power from there too. No extra power cable needed. Then pair Thermy with the SmartKnob, done. We sort out which cable fits your air conditioner or fridge together with you when you send your request. If your device is not listed yet, just ask us, we keep adding brands.

Climate with Thermy, heating with Heaty

Thermy takes care of air conditioner and fridge. For the parking heater there is Heaty, which is technically built on the same module. On the SmartKnob and in the dashboard everything ends up together in one place.

Find faults instead of hunting for them

Thermy has built-in self-diagnostics. They remember technical events such as voltage dips, restarts or excessive temperature, even across a power cut. If something ever goes wrong, your dealer or our support sees the cause straight away instead of searching for it. That saves guesswork, back-and-forth and often a workshop visit. The self-diagnostics know how the device is doing, not what you are doing: they hold no personal data at all.

Part of the Camper Jarvis system

Thermy connects wirelessly and encrypted to the SmartKnob, with no dedicated control wire and no cloud. It is developed to the processes of the automotive industry (Automotive SPICE), CE compliant and tested in accredited laboratories. New features arrive by update, automatically over the internet or by file from our firmware page.

Thermy at a glance

Air conditioning without a remote

Target temperature and mode on the SmartKnob or in the dashboard, for example the Dometic FreshJet.

Fridge in view

On and off, faults in plain words instead of blink codes. With a RuuviTag in the fridge, also see and set the temperature.

Quiet nights

With a RuuviTag in the fridge, Thermy lowers the cooling at night, so the compressor starts less often.

Cooling with solar power

With a full battery the fridge pre-cools deeper with surplus solar. With Volty, Solar Plus and a RuuviTag in the fridge.

Plug and play

Matching adapter cable, power comes from the device. No extra cable needed.

On autopilot

Pre-cool in the afternoon, quiet at night, air conditioning only on shore power: all automated.

Frequently asked questions about Thermy

Which devices can I control with Thermy?

Roof air conditioners with a data connection, for example the Dometic FreshJet, and fridges from Dometic, Thetford and Vitrifrigo. We work out which adapter cable fits your device with you when you send your enquiry. If your device is not supported yet, just ask us, we keep adding more brands.

What can I set with Thermy?

For the air conditioner, target temperature and operating mode, and you can always see what the unit is doing. For the fridge, you switch it on and off and get faults in plain language instead of blink codes.

Manufacturers do not transmit the actual temperature inside the fridge via the CI bus. Thermy can only set the fridge temperature once the actual temperature is known, which takes a RuuviTag wireless sensor in the fridge. Support for RuuviTag is coming soon. Then Thermy can also reduce cooling at night so that the compressor starts less often.

Everything on the SmartKnob or in the dashboard, no extra remote control needed.

Does Thermy need its own power cable?

No. Thermy plugs straight into your device with a matching adapter cable and gets its power from there too. Then you pair Thermy with the SmartKnob and you are done.

Do I need a SmartKnob for Thermy?

Yes. Thermy is a module and connects wirelessly and encrypted to the SmartKnob, the hub of the system. That is where, along with the dashboard, you operate your air conditioner and fridge.

Can Thermy work automatically?

Yes. You link Thermy to scenes and schedules, for example pre-cooling in the afternoon and switching to quiet night mode at bedtime. You can still control everything by hand at any time.

Can my fridge cool with surplus solar power?

Yes. When the battery is full and the sun keeps shining, the fridge uses the surplus to pre-cool a little further. That saves power in the evening and keeps the compressor quiet for longer. For this you need Volty for the battery data and a RuuviTag in the fridge.

What is the difference between Thermy and Heaty?

Thermy takes care of the air conditioner and fridge, Heaty of the parking heater. Technically, both are built on the same module. On the SmartKnob and in the dashboard, everything ends up together in one place.

I am planning a MaxxFan. What should I prepare during my build?

Lay a shielded data cable from the roof hatch down right away. The MaxxFan interferes strongly with unshielded cables, and this way you will not have to get back up to the roof hatch later.
