Timer Modes

Timer Modes off er the most effi cient mode of operation for a predictable heat demand. Additional functions such as
'Advance' and 'Boost' allow the User to make temporary adjustments to timer schedules for a more fl exible operation.
Each timer is broken down into 4 defi nable 'Heating On' time periods and temperatures per day, for each day of
the week. Each day consists of a 24-Hour period, starting and
fi nishing at midnight.
'Heating On' periods are times when the heater is trying to achieve
and maintain the target room temperature.
It is possible to change the Target Temperature of a Heating On
period when that period is active. This will temporarily adjust the
Target Temperature for just that instance and will not permanently
modify the settings for the timer in use.
NOTE:
If Adaptive Start is enabled, the heater will maintain the room at the required temperature
for the duration of the heating period. To achieve this, the heater will begin heating the room
before the start of the heating period to ensure the room is at the required temperature when
the period starts.
If Adaptive Start (AS) is disabled, the heater will not operate until the beginning of the heating
period. This should be taken into consideration when setting the heating periods.
See page 16 for instruction on enabling/disabling Adaptive Start.
