Mode Selector Functions
The RXPW4 controller allows control of multiple Dimplex heaters
from a single point. Heaters can be grouped together in “zones”
and each zone configured with a different time program for each
day of the week. Up to 4 zones are available.
Before the controller can be programmed, it is first necessary to set
the current time and day of the week.
1.
Turn the mode selector switch to the
position.
2.
Use the “+” and “-” buttons to cycle through the hours/
days of the week until the correct time/day is set.
3.
Press OK to confirm.
Note
: Typically 1 = Sunday, 2 = Monday, etc.
Setting the daily program for each zone
