Normal Mode (Nor)

17. Installer menu

To access the installer menu, you must hold 

OK

 and       for 5 seconds. 

When in the installer menu, press         or         and 

OK 

to navigate and select. 

When the thermostat is in Normal mode, the thermostat will try to reach the 
target temperature after the program changes.  

Example:  Program 1 on the thermostat is 21°C for 06:30am and the room 

temperature is 18°C. The thermostat will start the heating at 06:30am and the 

room temperature will start to increase then. 

To return to main menu, press 

OK 

to select 

Nor

When the thermostat is in Optimum Start mode, the thermostat will try to 
reach the target temperature by the start time of the next switching time. 
This is done by setting the Ti (time interval) on the thermostat in this menu 
to 10, 15 or 20. This will allow the thermostat 10 mins, 15 mins or 20 mins to 
increase the room temperature by 1°C. 
Ti can be set when OS is selected in the installer menu. 
To return to main menu, press 

OK 

to select required

 Ti

To achieve the target temperature when the program starts, the thermostat 
will read:
 

1.  The Room Temperature (RT) 

 

2.  The Setpoint Temperature (ST)

 

3.  The Target Temperature Difference (TTD) is the difference between  

 

  the setpoint temperature and the room temperature .

The time (in minutes) that it will take to overcome (TTD) is called Optimum 
Start Time (OST) and its maximum value is 3 hours = 180 mins. This is 
subtracted from the start time.
As the temperature increases the thermostat will recalculate the OST if the 
temperature is increasing too quickly.
