Setting the clock
The A4100 thermostat is fitted with a real time clock. This clock is used by the A4100
thermostat for the programming functions as described below.
It is essential that the clock time and day are set accurately if you require your
programmed events to start on time.
To set the clock, tap the “CLOCK key. The LCD will show the Hours Digit flashing. Use
the up or down key to adjust the hours to the correct time (note the AM / PM symbol).
Tap the “CLOCK” key again and now the minute’s digits will flash. Adjust this value using
the up or down key to show the correct minute. Tap the “CLOCK” key again and now the
weekday flashes, again use the up or down key to set this value to the correct day of the
week. Tap the “DONE” key again to exit the clock set function.

Residential Programmable Mode
Programming your 4 daily events
The A4100 is an individual 7 day
‐
and 5+2 programmable thermostat. For each day of
the week you are able to have 4 timed set temperature changes or programmed events.
For clarity these events are conveniently named “WAKE”, “DAY”, “EVENING”&“SLEEP”.
The number “WAKE” event may be used to set the temperatures of your home that you
would like to wake to.
The number “DAY” event is typically used to set the temperatures you wish your home to
maintain whilst you are away at work.
The number “EVENING” event is often used to set the temperature you wish to be
greeted with upon returning home at the end of the day.
The number “SLEEP” event can be used to set a comfortable and energy efficient
temperature while you sleep. You are permitted to have every event occur at a different
time of the day and set a different heating and cooling set temperature for each of the 4
daily events. You are also able to set a heating set point temperature between Heating
OFF and 38 degrees Celsius (100 F). You are able to set a cooling temperature between
zero degrees Celsius (32F) and Cooling OFF (provided your installer has not set control
limits that restrict this range of adjustment).
Remember, each of the 4 programmed event set temperatures will hold the home
temperature until the next event time arrives where the new event set temperature will
then be used. So The “WAKE” event set temperature will be the temperature of your
home until the “DAY” event time arrives, then The DAY” event set temperature will be the
temperature of your home until the “EVENING” event time arrives, then The “EVENING”
event set temperature will be the temperature of your home until the “SLEEP” event time
arrives, then The “SLEEP” event set temperature will be the temperature of your home
until the next days “WAKE” event time arrives.
Programming your A4100 thermostat or setting these daily events is no more
complicated than setting the clock as described previously. The same keys are used in
the same sequence.The LCD shows only relevant information for the event being
adjusted thus reducing possible errors that may be caused by having confusing
information displayed on the LCD.
To enter the program mode. Press “SCHED” key. The display will change to show the
period day and 4-period. Using the PROG DAY keys adjust the day to the day you wish
to start programming or to the day you wish to edit an existing event or program.
