Functions 

The controller acquires the room temperature with its integrated sensor or via a return 
air temperature sensor (QAH11.1) and maintains the setpoint by delivering two-position 
control commands. The switching differential is 4°F (2°K) in heating mode (adjustable) 
and 2°F (1°K) in cooling mode (adjustable). 

Fan Operation 

Fan operation is selected on the controller’s front panel, either in "Auto” or “Fan On” 
mode. 

When function "(Auto) – temperature-dependent" is selected, the fan is switched on/off 
(one-speed) depending on the temperature and the control output. When function “Fan 
On” is selected, the fan will run continuously (one-speed). 

The fan is switched off by: 

  leaving the heating or cooling sequence, if the “Temperature-dependent fan control“ 

function is activated. 

  manually setting the “Heat-Off-Cool” selector to “Off”. 

  turning the controller’s power supply off. 

Fan overrun 

When DIP switch 2 is set to OFF, the auxiliary heater is connected, the controller is in 
heating mode, and the fan overrun function is activated. When the electric heater 
output (terminal 7) is switched off by the controller in the heating sequence, the fan 
overrun will start based on the time delay set with parameter P08. Fan overrun has the 
highest priority and overrides the controller’s Off position.
