5.2.2 HOT WATER • If there is a hot water demand to the EvoLink, i.e., if both The EvoLink controls the operation of both the heat pump and the the hot water channel of the programmer and the cylinder supplementary heat source (boiler).
The Grant EvoLink control system includes a manual controls: override function, operated via the touch screen user interface. IMPORTANT. To use the following the EvoLink MUST be first • By using this function the EvoLink control can be manually be set to standby.
It is a pseudo integral timer. This allows manual selection of the supplementary heat source. The EvoLink will use the heat pump as its primary heat source. OVERRIDE MODE The EvoLink will use the supplementary heat source as its primary heat source.
