USING THE THERMAL RADIATOR

RFE Plus models have a built in electronic thermostat with a sensibility of 0.1 ºC. It is possible to set temperatures with an accuracy of 0.5ºC.

The daily or weekly programmer (selectable) allows you to allocate three different temperature levels to any of the 48 intervals of 30 minutes of the day.

SWITCHING ON THE HEATER AND SETTING THE TIME

Turn the mode selector dial to P position then press and hold the until the time flashes intermittently. Set the hours by pressing the + and – keys. Set the minutes the same way. Press the key once more to store the time.
If at any point you should need to change the times that have been set, just press the key and repeat the above process.

FROST PROTECTION MODE

With this mode on, if the room temperature drops below 3oC the heater will connect itself automatically. If the display shows the time, the heater is in frost protection mode. Press the key to shift from frost protection mode (time is shown in the display) to standard mode (temperature is shown in the display) and vice versa.

SELECTOR “O”, “P”, “I”.

Position “0” :
The heater is switched off permanently. The display is switched off.

Position “P” :
The heater is following a program. It will maintain the SUN, MOON or temperatures as per the introduced program. At this position if the display shows the time the heater is in frost protection mode.

Position “I” :
The heater is maintaining the SUN temperature and will be identified by both the SUN and MOON indicator being lit. This is useful when the SUN temperature is required, and we do not want to modify the program. At this position, if the display shows the time the heater is in frost protection mode. Press the key to shift from frost protection mode (time is shown in the display) to standard mode (temperature is shown in the display) and vice versa.

SUN, MOON AND TEMPERATURES

The electronic programmer is able to handle three temperature levels during a 24hr period.

Press the key to set the SUN temperature.

The display will show the SUN temperature. The display will show the SUN temperature value blinking.

Set the SUN temperature value by means of the + and – keys and press the key to store the value. If the display shows the time the heater is in frost protection mode. Press the key to shift from frost protection mode (time is shown in the display) to standard mode (temperature is shown in the display) and vice versa. Repeat the above steps with the key to set the MOON temperature.

The temperature level is 3oC and it is a fixed value. SUN, MOON or temperatures can be allocated to any of the 48 intervals of 30 minutes throughout the day.

DAILY PROGRAMMES

It is best to visualise the day split in to 48 intervals of 30 minutes each. The SUN, MOON or temperatures can be allocated to any of them.

The default settings include a daily mode so that the heater will repeat the program every day. If different programmes are required throughout the week, please see the next step WEEKLY PROGRAMMES. To check a programme or to make a new one, follow these steps:

Press the ‘PRG’ key and the display will show 00:00 intermittently.

Press one of the three keys –     to allocate SUN, MOON or OFF (frost protection) from 00:00h to 00:30h. If SUN or MOON temperatures are selected the relevant luminous indicator will be lit. If OFF temperature is selected both luminous indicators will be off.

Press the + key to go to the next interval. The display will show 00:30 intermittently and, again, press one of the three keys     to allocate SUN, MOON or OFF (frost protection) from 00:30h to 01:00h or press + key directly if the existing temperature level is ok.

Repeat these steps allocating the desired temperatures levels over the 24 hours of the day. Press the – key at any time to modify a previous period. By reaching the 23:30 in the display and pressing + key, the controller will store the program and will return to the previous mode.

At any time PRG key can be used also to store the program and return the previous mode.

EXAMPLE
Let’s see an example of how to introduce a program with the above distribution of temperatures.
OFF from 24:00h to 7:30h in the morning. The heater will be on only if the temperature drops to 3ºC.
SUN temperature from 7:30h to 9:00h.
MOON temperature from 9:00h to 13:00h.
SUN temperature from 13:00h to 15:00h.
MOON temperature from 15:00h to 19:30h.
SUN temperature from 19:30h to 24:00h.

WEEKLY PROGRAMMES

It is possible to allocate different programmes to different days of the week. To do this, the controller has to be changed from 24hr mode (factory default) to 24hr/7days mode as follows:

Move the selector to 0 position, the display will be Off. Press the key and at the same time turn the selector to P position maintaining hold of the key for five seconds. The display will show P-SE which means that weekly mode has been set.

SETTING THE DAY:

Press and hold the key until the display shows the number of the day. Set the correct number, if required, by pressing the + or – keys. Press the key again and the values will be saved.

To check a programme or to make a new one press PRG key. The display will show day1 . Press the PRG key again and the display will show 00:00 intermittently. Follow the steps from the DAILY PROGRAMMES section until the display shows day1  again. Repeat this process with the 7 days of the week. When the display shows day7 the weekly program will be stored by pressing + key.

If the display shows day1 then pressing and holding the + key will copy the day 1 program to day 2 and so on.

It is possible to allocate any of the three temperature levels to all of the intervals on any of the days by holding the relevant (temperature mode) key until an audible signal is heard.

To turn back the controller from 24hr/7days to a single 24hr period press the PRG key for six seconds. This will restore the factory default settings.

KEYBOARD LOCK

Press and hold the key until the following is shown on the display [ – – ] The heater will still function internally. To unlock the keyboard press and hold the key.

SUN MANUAL OVERRIDE

In programming mode, the heater will maintain the sun temperature set point and will ignore the pre-set programme until the next change in the programming temperature level.

Hold the SUN key pressed in programming mode to set the sun manual override. Both SUN and MOON indicators will be lit to confirm this.

This function could be useful when SUN temperature is required and we do not want to modify the program. By pressing the SUN key for 4 seconds with Sun Manual Override activated, the function will be removed and the heater will follow the programme again.

ADVANCED FUNCTION
