FA ROTEX ESU - 07/2008

The example shows the factory settings for the switching times for the direct heating circuit. Odd numbers (such as t1.1, t1.3) 
define the corresponding switch-on time, whilst even ones (such as t1.2, t1.4) represent the switch-off time. The switching time 
must be set to "——.——" for unused switching cycles, (such as t1.7 or t1.8 in the "Automatic I" switching time programme, if 
factory settings are to be used).
