- Wiring
Note: A typical system wiring example is shown on page 18 - Mount the unit on the wallplate
- With the unit powered up, it is recommended to press and release the RESET button to start up the FP735Si unit.
Programming Options
FP735Si is delivered with a set of parameters that have been pre-programmed to cover the most typical type of installations. See (5.0). If a different parameter setup is wanted the unit provides two programming options:
Normal programming
Normal Programming is meant for setting the timing profile that controls the ON and OFF periods for the room heating and for the hot water. A daily profile may be programmed and a profile can control the entire week where the weekend may be handled separately. Also a timing profile for a holiday can be entered.
As part of the normal daily operations, a simple one-button press (+HRS) can extend a running ON period for room heating and/or hot water by one hour. This can be repeated 3 times giving up to 3 hours extension.
By pressing ADV (advance), the user can jump to the next event in the daily timing profile. If for instance, the user wants to bring on the room heating immediately whereas the profile has been programmed to bring it on in two hours, the user can simply press ADV and the heat will be turned on.
See the User Guide for normal programming instructions.
Advanced P rogramming
Advanced Programming is meant for changing certain parameters that are usually only set once. Advanced Programming can typically be made by the installer as part of the system installation and setup.
Pre-programmed Parameters
FP735Si is delivered with a set of pre-programmed parameters.

Copy Functions
FP735Si provides 3 copy functions: Standard Copy, Advanced Copy and Channel Copy. Standard Copy is the default setting.
If the Advanced Copy function is wanted, it must be changed in Advanced Programming mode (page 13). Channel Copy is always available.
Standard Copy
Pressing COPY/i will copy the previous day’s events into the displayed day. The unit will then display the 1st event for the new day.
The Standard Copy function is only present if the unit is set to run in 7 day mode, or 5+2 day mode.
To perform a standard copy operation:
a) Press CH to select the channel.
b) Press PROG to go to event programming.
c) Press DAY/HOL to select the day to copy to.
d) Press COPY/i to copy the previous day’s events to the displayed day.
Advanced Copy
The Advanced Copy function is available in 7 day mode only. This allows any day to be copied to any other day, or days.
To use the Advanced Copy function, go into the event programming using the PROG button, then:
- Press DAY/HOL to select the day to be copied from.
- Press COPY/i to copy from the selected day.
When selected, the day will begin to flash. - Press DAY/HOL to select the day to be copied to.
- Press COPY/i to copy to the selected day.
- Repeat steps 3 and 4 to select and copy other days.
- To stop copying, use the DAY/HOL button to go back to the flashing day and press the COPY/i button. The previously flashing day will stop fl ashing to indicate it has been de-selected.
NOTE: When a day has been copied to, it will remain visible and not flashing when the DAY/HOL button is used to select other days.
Channel Copy
Channel Copy is used to copy events from one channel to another channel.
To perform a Channel Copy operation:
a) Press CH to select the channel to copy to.
b) Press COPY/i to copy from the previous channel.
The Information Key
When running in normal operation, the Information key COPY/i will provide the following information:
1st COPY/i key press: the model number is displayed.
2nd COPY/i key press: the software version is displayed.
3rd COPY/i key press: the next event time is displayed.
4th COPY/i key press: the Service Due end date is displayed (if set).
In holiday mode, the information key will provide the holiday end date only.
Note: the fi rst COPY/i key press will only turn on the backlight if no keys have been pressed for 2 minutes.
How to Reset The Unit
FP735Si has three levels of reset:
