INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
CUT OFF THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ANY OPERATIONS ARE PERFORMED.
DO NOT LAY THE CABLE CLOSE TO THE CONTROL PANEL CABLE!
WHILE ROUTING THE CONTROL PANEL CABLE DO NOT COIL THE EXTRA LENGTH.
-
Fix the junction box to the wall.

Wiring diagrams
OPERATION ALGORITHM
Switch on the temperature controller by pressing the power button (2). Press
the fan speed selection button. The display will show one of the characters
(14 in Fig. 2) or AUTO. This means that the fan will rotate at HI (high), MED
(medium), LOW or AUTO (automatic mode) speed. If AUTO mode is selected, the
fan speed will vary according to the difference between the actual room
temperature and the set temperature. If the room temperature is more than 3
degrees above the set temperature when cooling or more than 3 degrees below
the set temperature when heating, the fan will run at its highest speed. If
the room temperature is 2-3 degrees higher than the set temperature for
cooling or 2-3 degrees lower than the set temperature for heating, the fan
will run at medium speed. If the room temperature is 0-1 degrees above the set
temperature when cooling or 0-2 degrees below the set temperature when
heating, the fan will run at low speed.
Heating system operation
Set the heating operation with the mode button (15 in Fig. 2). Press “+” to
increase the control temperature value. If the room temperature is lower than
the set temperature, the heating system will start. Press “-” to decrease the
control temperature value. If the room temperature is higher than the set
temperature, the heating system will stop.
Operation of the cooling system
Set the cooling operation with the mode button (10 in Fig. 2). Press “-” to
decrease the control temperature value. If the room temperature is higher than
the set temperature, the cooling system will start.
Press “+” to increase the control temperature value. If the room temperature
is lower than the set temperature, the cooling system will stop.
Operation in the night mode
Press the button to switch to the night mode (5 in Fig. 1). The night mode
symbol (9 in Fig.2) appears. This mode will be active for 8 hours and the
temperature controller will control heating or cooling according to the
schedule below. Press the night mode button again, the corresponding symbol
will disappear, which means that the night mode is cancelled.
Features of the night mode operation
The temperature controller is set to the cooling mode: For a gradual
temperature change, one hour after setting the night mode, the set temperature
will automatically rise by 1 degree, and 2 hours later, the set temperature
will rise by 2 degrees and will be held at this level.
for 8 hours until the timer is switched off. When the timer is switched off, the setpoint will be restored to its original level automatically. The temperature controller is set to the heating mode: To obtain a better temperature variation smoothly, 30 minutes after setting the night mode, the set point temperature will automatically decrease by 1 degree, and one hour later, it will decrease by 2 degrees. After 2 more hours, the set temperature will decrease by 3 degrees and this temperature will be maintained until the timer is switched off, which is 8 hours. When the timer is switched off, the set point will automatically return to its initial state.
ADJUSTMENT OF CONTROL MODES
Setting the control modes allows you to set certain operating characteristics
of the temperature controller for the automatic mode, according to your
requirements. Switch off the temperature controller by pressing the power
button then press and hold the night mode button (5, Fig.1) for at least 4
seconds until the display switches on. This means that you have entered the
first menu control mode setting item. There are a total of 4 of these items,
which are shown on the display accordingly. The relevant menu item is selected
by pressing the button (5). In each menu item, use the “+” or “-” button to
change the settings. To exit the menu and return to normal operation, switch
off the temperature controller by pressing the power button and switch it on
again.
If no button is pressed within 20 seconds, the temperature controller will
switch off.
Menu item 1: Temperature accuracy. The display will show “Temp adjust”. The
default value is 0, it is blinking in the configuration menu. Any value from
“-3” to “+3” may be selected. You can set the room temperature in the display
up to 3 degrees above or below.
Menu item 2: Entering the upper limit of the temperature setting. The display
shows 37°C, which is the maximum default value set by the manufacturer. Use
the “+” and “-” buttons to set the maximum limit. It can be set between 26°C
and 37°C.
Menu item 3: Entering the lower limit of the temperature setting. The display
shows 5’C, which is the minimum default value set by the manufacturer. Use the
“+” and “-” buttons to set the minimum limit. It can be set between 5°C and
24°C.
Menu item 4: Fan control. The display shows “ON”, which is the default value
set by the manufacturer. Use the “+” and “-” buttons to select between “ON”
and “OFF”. If “ON” is selected, the temperature controller will switch the fan
on at the set speed and will not stop until the mode selection button or fan
speed selection button is pressed. When selecting “OFF”, if the set
temperature is lower than the room temperature when heating or the set
temperature when cooling is higher than the room temperature, the temperature
controller will stop the fan and will remain in this mode until the mode
selection button is pressed.
Remote control
To operate the temperature controller using the remote control, point the remote control towards the front panel of the controller at a distance of no more than 4 m. In the process of long-term use, the battery of the remote control may discharge. If this occurs, the battery needs to be replaced. To do this, remove the battery holder from the bottom of the remote control and replace the battery ensuring correct polarity.
