Introduction
A room thermostat simply switches the heating system on and off as necessary. It works by sensing the air temperature, switching on the heating when the air temperature falls below the thermostat setting, and switching it off once this set temperature has been reached. Turning a room thermostat to a higher setting will not make the room heat up any faster. How quickly the room heats up depends on the design of the heating system, for example, the size of boiler and radiators. Neither does the setting affect how quickly the room cools down. Turning a room thermostat to a lower setting will result in the room being controlled at a lower temperature, and saves energy. The heating system will not work if a time switch or programmer has switched it off. The way to set and use your room thermostat is to find the lowest temperature setting that you are comfortable with, and then leave it alone to do its job. The best way to do this is to set the room thermostat to a low temperature ­ say 18C ­ and then turn it up by one degree each day until you are comfortable with the temperature. You won't have to adjust the thermostat further. Any adjustment above this setting will waste energy and cost you more money. If your heating system is a boiler with radiators, there will usually be only one room thermostat to control the whole house. But you can have different temperatures in individual rooms by installing thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) on individual radiators. If you don't have TRVs, you should choose a temperature that is reasonable for the whole house. If you do have TRVs, you can choose a slightly higher setting to make sure that even the coldest room is comfortable, then prevent any overheating in other rooms by adjusting the TRVs. Room thermostats need a free flow of air to sense the temperature, so they must not be covered by curtains or blocked by furniture. Nearby electric fires, televisions, wall or table lamps may prevent the thermostat from working properly.

Features
The RT310from SALUS Controls is a stylish and accurate digital thermostat with an easy to read Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
Features
· Frost protection(selectable) · Low-Battery Warning · Low-Battery Detection · Modern Casing · Sleep Mode · User Friendly

Installation
The ideal position to locate the RT310 thermostat is about 1.5m above floor level, in a location where the thermostat is accessible, reasonably lit and free from extremes of temperature and draughts. Do not mount the thermostat on an outside wall, above a radiator or in a location where it may be subjected to direct sunlight. The electrical connections to the RT310 are made to the supplied industry standard backplate. This simplifies installation, as no connections are made to the controller itself. Connection details are shown below - no Earth connection is required for the correct and safe operation of the RT310, but a parking terminal is provided to connect an Earth wire if one is present.

DIP switch settings
The DIP switches are found on the rear of your thermostat and can be used to change the span (temperature accuracy) of your thermostat from the default +/-0.5°C to +/-0.25°C. This may cause your boiler to operate more frequently. The DIP switches are located on the back of the thermostat. ON +/-0.25°C, OFF +/-0.5°C. The span is the accuracy with which the thermostat operates when displaying your temperature. You can increase the accuracy by setting the span to +/-0.25°C, meaning that your thermostat will be sensitive to a quarter of a degree temperature change and will activate/deactivate the boiler.

Operations
Initial Power UP
After power up, the thermostat is reset. During system reset, all LCD icons are displayed for 2 seconds and the keys are locked. After that, all keys are unlocked and the thermostat is initialized. Then software version is shown. The typical reset display is shown below.

The following table shows the settings of the RT310 digital thermostat after RESET button is pressed:

Adjusting Setpoint Temperature
By changing the Setpoint temperature, you are permanently altering your temperature. You can change the set point temperature very easily while you are reviewing the set point temperature. Press the UP or DOWN keys repeatedly to change the temperature setting. The set point temperature will flash to indicate that it can be changed: the temperature will be changed in 0.5°C steps per key press. The RT310 will return to Normal mode if no keys are pressed for more than 2 seconds. Once the new Setpoint is implemented, the change is permanently overridden until a new Setpoint is set again. Setpoint temperature cannot be changed if Frost Protection mode is enabled.
