Energy Control

• The Thermostat has an integrated radio revceiver for Nobø Energy Control, Nobø Orion 700 and also for direct connection with Nobø Sense MSW magnet switch.
• Connect the thermostat to Nobø Energy Control by using automatic search in the app. Slide the switch from standby to on while the app is searching for units.
• While searching, the thermostat will show its ID-code in the display. The ID-code can be used for manual registration (Orion 700).
• When connected to Nobø Energy Control, the temperature can be set either on the thermostat or via the app. Changes will automatically be syncronised between the thermostat and the app. (Does not apply when in power regulator mode.)
• When connected to Orion 700, temperature settings can be adjusted on the thermostat only.

Setting the day and time
At first startup the thermostat will ask you to set the current day and time .

• Use the buttons to select the current day.
• Confirm the selection by pressing .
• Next, use the buttons to set the hour (24H clock). Confirm again with . Repeat to set the minutes.
• After a power outage or similar, you may need to set the day and time again. If needed, the thermostat will go directly to the settings screen when the power is turned back on.
• To correct an incorrect day and time setting, enter the “Menu > Set time”.
• The current day and time is hidden when the keylock is on, and when the backlight is dimmed down.
