Setting the Frost Protection temperature / Storage Tank Limit Temperature
Note that the unit must be in PROGRAMMING MODE, (keypad lock disabled)
in order to change both values.

1

To adjust TF, first make sure that the display select indicator is at 

.  Now

press the hidden TF adjust key (see section 3.1 diagram for location of key)

 keys to adjust this value.

3

Press the 

 key to exit and accept the new value.

4

Press the hidden TF adjust key a second time.  The tank safety temperature
will be displayed (+60°C to +90°C).

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

3.4.1 MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM RECORD TEMPERATURES

The maximum and minimum Collector and Tank temperatures may be

displayed by pressing and holding the 

 key for 3 seconds.  Ensure that the

 or 

 selector lamp is selected.  The display will show the maximum

temperature reached since the unit was reset.  This may be reset to the

present Collector or Tank temperature by pressing the 

 key whilst viewing

the maximum recorded temperature (while the 

 key is pressed).  To view

the maximum ever recorded temperature, continue to press the 

 key for a

further 8 seconds after the maximum temperature has been read (an “F”
indicates that a sensor fault or temperature above 100°C has occurred in the
unit’s history).
The minimum Collector and Tank temperatures may be displayed in the same

manner only using the 

 key.  To reset proceed as above.

The hysteresis has been increased to ± 2°C.

The pump will switch off if the Tank temperature reaches 90°C and back on
again when the tank temperature drops to 86°C.  As before, the pump will run
if the Collector sensor registers a temperature above 99°C, until the Tank
reaches 90°C.  The tank safety temperature has priority over all other
settings.
