Operating Modes 

Normal Mode 

Heating or Cooling mode with automatic changeover and manually selected fan speed 
(III, II or I). In Normal mode, the controller maintains the adjusted setpoint. 

Economy Mode 

A potential-free operating mode changeover switch can be connected to status input 
D1-GND. When the switch closes its contact (due to an open window, for instance), the 
operating mode will change from Normal to Economy. In this operating mode, the 
relevant setpoints of heating or cooling are maintained (adjustable in Parameters P01 
[setback temperature for heating] and P02 [setback temperature for cooling]). The 
operating action of the switch (NC or NO) can be selected. 

Standby 

The relevant setpoints of heating and cooling are maintained when in Standby   mode, 
provided those setpoints have been adjusted. The standby temperature setting for 
Heating mode in Parameter P03 is adjustable from 41°F to 68°F (5°C to 20°C) or 

“OFF” 

and the setting for Cooling mode in Parameter P04 is adjustable from 70°F to 95°F 
(21°C to 35°C) or OFF. 

Avoiding Damage Due to 
Moisture (continuous 
fan) 

To avoid damage due to moisture in very warm and humid climates resulting from lack 
of air circulation in Economy mode (for example, in hotel rooms during unoccupied 
periods), the fan can be kept running in Economy mode when activating Parameter 
P17. In this case, the fan keeps running at the selected speed or at speed I if the 
operating mode select

or is in Standby “ ”. 

Setting the Control 
Parameters 

A number of control parameters can be set to optimize control performance. These 
parameters can also be set during operation without opening the unit. In the event of a 
power failure, all set control parameters will be maintained. 

Settings 

The parameters can be changed as follows: 

1. 

Set the operating mode selector to Standby “ ”. 

2.  Press buttons "+" and "

–" simultaneously for a minimum of three seconds. Release 

them and, within two seconds, press the "+" button again for three seconds. The 
display will show P01.  

3.  Select the required parameter by repeatedly pressing the "+" and "

–" buttons: 

 

4.  Press buttons "+" and "

–" simultaneously; the current value of the selected 

parameter appears, and can be changed by repeatedly pressing the "+" and "

–" 

buttons. 

5.  Press buttons "+" and "

–" simultaneously again or five seconds after the last press 

of a button. The last parameter will be displayed again. 

6.  To display and change additional parameters, repeat steps 3 through 5. 

7.  All changes will be stored and the controller returns to Normal operation 10 

seconds after the last display or setting.
