Selecting using operating modes

  • Your Herschel Select XLS heater works most efficiently when it is set up to run against a program controlled by the T BT thermostat This program will always ensure your room reaches the temperature you want at the time you want it, each day of the week
  • Usually you will want to set up and run the unit in Program PRG mode You can always override the programmed set temperature to be higher or lower by using the or keys to change the temperature and the T BT will maintain this override temperature until the next programmed period starts when the next programmed temperature will be set)
  • Selecting Manual ( mode allows you to set and maintain a constant temperature that does not vary with the time of day
  • There is also a Holiday ( mode which allows you to save energy by setting a lower temperature while you are away The HOL mode has a day counter feature allowing you to set the number of days you are away

Selecting the Operating Mode
To select Manual or Programming modes press the PRG button until the mode you require is shown at the top of the display

Manual Mode

  • Select the Manual mode by clicking the PRG button until MAN is shown on the display
  • Use the or buttons to set the temperature you want the T BT to maintain in the room Note that the T BT will maintain this temperature 24 x 7 until you switch to another mode

Program Mode
The T-BT comes with the following program defaults which you can keep or change

Programming the T-BT
To change the program defaults, proceed as followsHERSCHEL-T-BT-Battery-

Holiday Mode

  • Holiday (Away) mode allows you to set a cooler fallback temperature to maintain in the house to save energy but avoid frozen water pipes. The model has a countdown timer in which you can set up to 99 days away.
  • The T-BT will revert to a fixed 18˚C setting when holiday mode completes.
  • To set the Holiday countdown timer, long press on the Holiday (Palm Tree) button on the keypad. The “HOL” Mode is displayed and the set temperature will begin to flash.

Adaptive Start
Adaptive start is an intelligent energy-saving feature that will turn on the heating in advance of the next scheduled time if the current temperature is more than 5°C below the next target temperature. (This avoids wasteful loads on the heater).
Adaptive Start will only work if the feature is activated and shown as a Timer icon on the display (see display schematic on page 2). To activate the Adaptive Start feature, press “SET” and ‘-’ together for 3 seconds. To deactivate, repeat the process.

Calibration

  • Calibration is a process to alter the temperature of the T BT up or down in order to align the unit with another thermostat
  • The T BT can be calibrated 55°C up or down from the default of 0 (no calibration) You can calibrate in steps of 0 55°C
  • Calibrating UP (i e 11°C etc) means the T BT will display a higher temperature than the present one being shown Use this when you think the T BT is under reading compared with another thermostat
  • Calibrating DOWN (i e 11°C etc) means the T BT will display a lower temperature than the present one being shown Use this when you think the T BT is over reading compared with another thermostat
  • When adjusting the T BT Time Temperature settings using the SET button, calibration is the final setting you can change The default is 0 Use or keys to adjust this figure up or down
