Product overview
The thermostat is primarily designed for use in systems equipped with 4-pipe fan-coil units. It may also be used in other heat / cool systems, including split systems and air to air heat-pumps.
The thermostat controls room temperature by sequencing the operation of heating and cooling. A selectable dead-band prevents overlap of heating and cooling processes. For systems equipped with compressor derived cooling, including heat-pumps, a selectable compressor delay timer is also included. If used to control a heat-pump, the reversing valve can be generalisation on either a heat or cool demand.
Installation
-
First remove the wall plate from the back of the unit.
-
Ensure that there is a minimum of 50mm above the unit and 100mm below the unit in order to mount the plug-in module.
-
Fix at a height of approximately 1.5m from the floor, away from draughts or heat sources such a fan-coil outlets, sunlight or office equipment.

Commissioning
Prior to re-fitting the thermostat to the wall plate, the DIL switches on the
rear of the unit must be set to the desired setting.
DIL Switch options, shown in factory set position ON
DIL Switch descriptions
Switch 8 : If set to On/Off, both heating and cooling stages operate in on/off mode. If set to Chronic, heating stage operates in chronic-proportional modes, cooling continues in On/off mode
Switch 7: Active only if switch 8 is set to Chrono. This switch determines the number of cycles per hour that the thermostat will impose on the system, the options are three 20 minute cycles or six 10 minute cycles
Switch 6 : Allows Celsius or Fahrenheit temperature scaling to be selected
Switch 5: Enables or disables a compressor delay timer which is activated
at the end of each cooling call.
This feature need only be used where cooling is provided by a compressor as
opposed to chilled water. Set to Cmp del if a compressor delay is required,
otherwise leave set to No Cmp del
Switch 4: Active only if switch 5 is set to Cmpdel. The options are 3 or 4 minutes
Switch 3: Allows dead-band between heating and cooling to be set, options are 2°C or 4°C
Switch 2: Allows application to set as fan coil or as heat pump. If heat- pump is selected, the output normally used to operate the heating valve is re- assigned to the heat-pump reversing valve, the compressor stop/start signal for both heat and cool calls is re-assigned to the relay normally used to operate the cooling valve
Switch 1: The function of this switch is dependent upon the setting of switch 2:
- Switch 2 set to Heat-pump: allows the reversing valve to be set up to be energised in heating mode (R+), or energised in cooling mode (R-)
Mounting thermostat to the wall plate
- To mount the thermostat to the wall plate, align the tabs on the top of the thermostat with the apertures in the wall plate and hinge the thermostat down, pressing firmly to engage the securing clip in the wall plate.
Locking & limiting
- To lock or limit the setting range turn the setting dial to 3 and remove knob.
- Position the locking springs on the rear of the dial to the desired position and re-mount the knob ensuring that number 3 on the dial aligns with the reference mark on the case.

LED lit green when thermostat is powered
LED lit orange when fan running
Fan runs continuously
Fan runs with heat or cool demand
Thermostat off -
LCD display, shows actual room temperature unless knob is moved at which time a fl ashing set temperature is momentarily displayed. During heating demand a flame symbol is lit, during cooling demand a snowflake symbol is lit
-
LED lit red during heating demand
LED lit green when cooling demand.
LED fl ashes green during compressor delay period -
RESET button
-
Temperature setting dial, read setting off LCD display
Note: Should it be necessary to reset the microprocessor for any reason,
a reset button is located beneath the setting dial. Use a non-metallic point,
for example a match- stick to depress the recessed button.
