Mounting & Installation
Caution!
- Installation and connection should only be carried out by a qualified person.
- Only qualified electricians or authorised service staff are permitted to open the thermostat.
- If the thermostat is used in a way not specified by the manufacturer, its safety may be impaired.
- Prior to setting the thermostat, it is necessary to complete all required settings described in this section.
- Before commencing installation, the thermostat must be first disconnected from the mains.
This thermostat can be mounted in the following ways:
- Directly mounted on wall
- To a recessed conduit box
- Remove the thermostat from its packaging.
- Choose a mounting location so that the thermostat can measure the room temperature as accurately as possible.
- Mount the thermostat 1.5 metres above the floor level.
- Prevent direct exposure to sunlight or other heating / cooling sources.
- To open the front housing
- use a philips screwdriver to loosen the screw on the bottom right of the thermostat.
- insert and rotate a 3.5mm flat screwdriver into the slot on the bottom left.
- Wire the thermostat according to the wiring diagram on page 6.
- Screw the backplate onto a back box or directly to the surface.
- Close the front housing and tighten the screw on the bottom of the thermostat.
Replacing the batteries
- is displayed when the batteries need to be replaced.
- Push in the battery compartment to release it.
- Replace the batteries with 2 x AA Alkaline batteries.
- Re-insert the battery compartment. Push it until it clicks into place.
On / Off Function
Press to turn the thermostat On or Off.
When in the ON mode the thermostat will display the current ambient
temperature.
When in the OFF mode the thermostat will display the current ambient
temperature and the word ‘OFF’.
Adjusting the target temperature
Rotate clockwise to increase the target temperature.
Press or wait 5 seconds. The target temperature is now saved.
Rotate anti-clockwise to decrease the target temperature.
Press or wait 5 seconds. The target temperature is now saved.
Locking the Keypad
To lock the thermostat, press for 10 seconds. will appear on the screen. The
buttons are now disabled.
To unlock the thermostat, press for 10 seconds. will disappear from the
screen. The buttons are now enabled.
Backlight AUTO
There are three settings for selection.
‘bL AUtO’ The backlight is on for 10 seconds when any button is pressed.
‘bL OFF’ The backlight is permanently off.
To adjust the backlight setting, press for 10 seconds.
‘bL AUtO’ appears on the screen.
Rotate to change the mode between AUTO and OFF.
Press to confirm selection and to return to normal operation.
Menu Function
This menu allows the user to adjust additional functions.
PO 1 Operating Mode (Normal / Delay Start / TPI)
There are three settings for selection, Normal, Delay Start or TPI mode.
The default setting is Normal.
Press and hold the and together for 5 seconds,
P01 & Nor will appear on the screen,
Press to select.
Rotate to select between
Nor (Normal mode)
dS (delay start mode)
tPi (Time proportional integral mode)
Press to confirm the mode.
PO 1 Operating Mode (Normal / Delay Start / TPI)
Nor (Normal Mode)
When the temperature falls below the target temperature, appear and the
thermostat will activate the demand for heat.
When the temperature rises above the target temperature, disappear, and the
thermostat will cancel the demand for heat.
Delay Start Control (On/Off)
When the delay start mode is active, ‘dS’ will appear continuously on the
screen. When in this mode the thermostat is delayed by a variable time
depending on the current temperature, target temperature and also the fall in
temperature from when the delay start has activated.
The will flash until the thermostat activates.
When activated the thermostat will allow the heating system time to reach the
target and delay start will remain inactive until it reaches this target. E.g:
If the temperature is 6˚C below the thermostat target, the thermostat will
call for heat immediately.
If the temperature is 2˚C below the target, the thermostat will not call for
heat for 32 minutes.
Delay start can be reactivated by:
- Lower the target below the current temperature.
- Press to set the temperature.
- Increase the target above the zone temperature within 6° .
- Press to confirm.
The heating will be delayed as per the graph on page 16.
If the difference between the actual temperature and the target is 1°C the
thermostat will delay starting for circa 40 minutes.
If the difference between the actual temperature and the target is 3°C the
thermostat will delay starting for circa 24 minutes.
If the difference is 6°C or more then the thermostat will be switched on
immediately.
The time delay will change if the temperature drops from the original
calculation.
Time Proportional Integral Mode (TPI)
When the thermostat is in TPI mode and the temperature is rising in the zone
and falls into the Proportional Bandwith section, TPI will start to affect the
thermostats operation. The thermostat will turn on and off as it gains heat so
that it doesn’t overshoot the target by too much. It will also turn on if the
temperature is falling so it doesn’t undershoot the target which will leave
the user with a more comfortable level of heat.
There are 2 settings that will affect the thermostats operation
- The number of heating cycles per hour
- The Proportional Bandwith
CyC – Number of Heating Cycles per hour 6 Cycles
This value will decide how often the thermostat will cycle the heating on and off when trying to achieve the target temperature. You can select 2/3/6 or 12.
Pb -Proportional Bandwith 2°C
This value refers to the temperature below the target at which the thermostat
will start to operate in TPI control. You can set this temperature from 1.5°C
to 3.0°C in 0.1°C increments.
PO 2 Setting High and Low limits Hi 35°C Lo 5°C
This menu allows the installer to change the minimum and maximum temperatures
that the thermostat can be set at.
To access this setting press and hold and together for 5 seconds. ‘P01 & Nor’
will appear on the screen.
Rotate clockwise.
‘P02 & HI LO’ will appear on the screen.
Press to select.
‘Hi Lim’ will appear on the screen and the temperature will begin to flash.
Rotate to select the high limit for the thermostat.
Press to confirm.
‘Lo Lim’ will appear on the screen and the temperature will begin to flash.
Rotate to select the low limit for the thermostat.
Press to confirm. The settings will be saved and the user will be returned to
the previous screen.

thermostat when the temperature is rising and falling. To access this setting
press and hold and together for 5 seconds.
‘P01 & Nor’ will appear on the screen.

‘HOff’ appears on the screen and the temperature will begin to flash. Use to
select the ‘HOff’ temperature, press to confirm. Press to confirm.
The settings will be saved and the user will be returned to the previous
screen.
P04 – Calibration
This menu allows the installer to calibrate the temperature of the thermostat.
To access this setting press and hold and together for 5 seconds. ‘P01 & Nor’
will appear on the screen.

Press to select.
Current actual temperature will flash on the screen.
Rotate clockwise or anti clockwise to calibrate the temperature. Press to
confirm the temperature.
The current temperature will be saved and the user will be returned to the
previous screen.
