8 Advanced Programmable Timer
The Advanced Programmable Timer mode enables the setting of a timer-controlled program for automatic comfort temperature, and an energy-saving lower setback temperature if standard room comfort temperature is not required.
Example below for 5/2 day setup, 4 Temperature settings.
The function consists of 2 programs:
P1 with 4 events in 5 days (Mon. Tue. Wed. Thu. Fri.) P2 with 4 events in 2 days (Sat. Sun.).
P1: Press ![]() P1, Event 1:
P1, Event 2-4: |
P2: Sa. Su. are now shown in the display.
P2, Event 1:
P2, Event 2-4: |
If schedule working mode is set to 24hr, only P1 program will be available, see parameter P01. Mo. to Su. will be set together with the same times and temperatures.
The thermostat will continue the 4-event program based on the present time and day.
To set and change the room temperature temporarily:
- Press < or > at any time to change the desired temperature value. SET is shown in the display.
- When releasing the < or >, the display returns to showing the actual temperature. This temperature change is only temporary and will be maintained only until the next programmed setting!
A default program provides timer control if the customer does not create own programs:
