Automatic operation and set a different temperature. Then the temperature will not be governed by the program schedule, but by the manually selected temperature: In this case CRONO.X will behave as an ordinary thermostat. This status is indicated by the symbol on the display.
Automatic). WINTER-HEATING /SUMMER-AIR CONDITIONING OPERATION MODES CRONO.X controls both Heating and Air-conditioning systems. Depending on the selection, the device’s control mode is indicated by the fl ame icon for WINTER – HEATING or by the snowfl ake icon for SUMMER – AIR- CONDITIONING.
The Starting operating mode is AUTOMATIC and it is kept for a determined term (hours and days), after which the device switches back to the OFF mode. This is used to switch the CRONO.X off for a certain time or a day when nobody is going to be in.
CONTROL BY TELEPHONE DIALLER The CRONO.X programmable thermostat can be remote-controlled through a telephone. This feature is especially useful to control the heating in second homes, as this makes it possible to prepare a warm environment.

CONFIGURATION FOR X.CODE WAVE (code VN782900), X.CODE BUS (code VE072500) and for PHONE DIALERS WITH CLEAN OUTPUT CONTACT After connectig the 2 OUT BUS terminals in the CRONO.X up to those marked as relay output contacts in the X.CODE WAVE, X.CODE BUS or other dialer for landline phone or GSM cell phone with a clean output contact.
• Press to confi rm AUTOMATIC SOLAR/DAYLIGHT TIME SWITCHING CRONO.X changes the time from daylight saving to solar on the last Sunday in March at 02:00; from solar to daylight saving on the last Sunday in October at 03:00. This function too can be disabled, or else the date and hour in which the time switch occurs can be changed.

ON for a time span that is proportional to the difference between the set-point and the temperature measured. At the end of every Control Period, CRONO.X reads the temperature measured and compares it with the set-point: based on the difference between the 2 values, it then keeps the output ON for a proportional time accordingly.
