Thermostat Function Description
Cooling mode
(Proportional-Integral(PI) control cooling)
Example: P-band is 2°C
The valve cooling output PI and the temperature differential(room temperature
and setting temperature) as following picture.
Fan speed instruction
- Continuously press button, you can select HI speed, MED speed, LOW speed and AUTO speed, the LCD will display the corresponding marks. If you select the AUTO speed:
- Room temperature is higher or equal 3 ‘C than the setting temperature, the fan will run HI speed; if the room temperature is higher or equal 2 °C and lower or equal 3°C than the setting temperature, the fan will run MED speed. Other will run LOW speed.
- If you choose fan run with valve in parameter 6 of configuration,the Auto fan would stop if cooling valve close
External sensor
- When the external sensor is connected, the thermostat will show temperature detected by the external sensor.
- When the external sensor is removed or open the circuit, the thermostat will show temperature detected by the ambient sensor.
Key lock
In power-on status long press the button to activate key lock or cancel the
button lock. With different key lock options, refer to parameter LF.
Room card
- If a room card is not present,it could set the default setting temperature from the configuration menu by parameter 9.
- If the room card activates, it could set energy-saving temperature from the configuration menu by parameter 10.
Configuration Menu operation
- The configuration menu allows you to set certain thermostat operating characteristics to your system or personal requirements. Switch off the thermostat, long press button or more than 3 seconds to enter the configuration menu, The display will show the first item in the configuration menu.
