Adaptive Settings
NOTE: Adaptive Start
This is a continuously learning function and will be affected daily by changes in the
heater’s environment. The heater will take into account the starting temperature of
the room so pre-heating should remain accurate.
It is important that if multiple heaters are installed in one room that all heaters have
the Adaptive Start (AS) function enabled. If this is not the case, heaters with AS
enabled will pre-heat the room to the desired target temperature before the heaters
with AS disabled attempt to output heat.
It is likely that if two heaters are required in one room, that the output from one
heater may not be sufficient to heat the room alone. This may cause the pre-heat
time calculation to extend to a large degree if the heaters do not all have AS enabled.
This may lead to heat at unwanted times and excessive wear to some heaters.
A two-hour limit is enforced on the calculation, however, if all heaters have AS
enabled and pre-heating takes over one-hour, extreme environmental factors may
be affecting the calculation or the heaters may be under sized for the room. Please
contact us for support if your pre-heat time seems excessive.
Open Window Detection
This is a global setting that can interrupt any active mode. Activating this setting enables Open Window
Detection to switch the Heater to a ‘Heating Off’ state if it detects an open window in the room it’s operating
in.
Adaptive Start
Adaptive Start is predictive function that only modifies Timer Mode operation. This function models the
heating characteristics of the room and uses that information to pre-heat the room for only the time required
to achieve the Target Temperature by the start of the ‘Heating On’ period.
For example, with Adaptive Start off, the ‘Heating On’ time is the time that the Heater will begin to try and
achieve the Target Temperature. With Adaptive Start On, the Heater will begin to heat the room before the
User-defined Heating On time so that the Target Temperature is achieved when the User defined the ‘Heating
On’ start time.
NOTE: Open Window Detection
In environments where the product may read sudden decreases in temperature,
this feature may activate in error. This can occur in drafty or poorly insulated
environments as well as if the heater is undersized for the room. This feature should
be disabled using the instructions above if activating for reasons other than the
intended purpose. If you think that your environment is not as described here and
this feature is activating, please contact our customer care team with the details on
the rear page of this document.
