Installer menu

To access the installer menu, you must hold OK and  Functionfor 5 seconds.

  • When in the installer menu, pressFunction orFunction and OK to navigate and select.
Normal Mode (Nor)

When the thermostat is in Normal mode, the thermostat will try to reach the target temperature after the program changes.
Example: Program 1 on the thermostat is 21°C for 06:30am and the room temperature is 18°C. The thermostat will start the heating at 06:30am and the room temperature will start to increase then.
To return to main menu, press OK to select Nor.

  • Optimum Start Mode (OS

When the thermostat is in Optimum Start mode, the thermostat will try to reach the target temperature by the start time of the next switching time. This is done by setting the Ti (time interval) on the thermostat in this menu to 10, 15 or 20. This will allow the thermostat 10 mins, 15 mins or 20 mins to increase the room temperature by 1°C.
Ti can be set when OS is selected in the installer menu. Symbol20˚C
To return to main menu, press OK to select required Ti
To achieve the target temperature when the program starts, the thermostat will read:

  1. The Room Temperature (RT)
  2. The Setpoint Temperature (ST)
  3. The Target Temperature Difference (TTD) is the difference between the setpoint temperature and the room temperature .

The time (in minutes) that it will take to overcome (TTD) is called Optimum
Start Time (OST) and its maximum value is 3 hours = 180 mins. This is subtracted from the start time.
As the temperature increases the thermostat will recalculate the OST if the temperature is increasing too quickly.

Optimum Start Control Graph with Ti = 20

Example when Ti = 20
Program 1 on the thermostat is 21°C for
06:30am and the room temperature is 18°C.
The thermostat will start the heating at
05:30am to reach 21°C for 06:30am @ Ti=20.

Example when Ti = 10
Program 1 on the thermostat is 21°C for
06:30am and the room temperature is 18°C.
The thermostat will start the heating at
06:00am to reach 21°C for 06:30am @ Ti=10.

Optimum Start Control Graph with Ti = 15
