Away Hold

To set the temperature while the occupants are away, use the
Permanent Away 2 scene. This scene changes all thermostats
on the network to the Away temperature setting. If there is
an Outdoor Reset Module on the tN4 communication bus,
the boiler no longer responds to domestic hot water calls
for heat. Setpoint demands continue to operate as in the
Occupied mode.

Offset

This thermostat uses a high quality temperature thermistor
and is calibrated to accurately read the room temperature.
However, if you wish to fine tune the measured room

Units of Temperature

The thermostat can display temperatures in either
Fahrenheit (°F) or in Celsius (°C).

Backlight

Use the thermostat's backlight to increase the visibility of
the display. You can set the backlight to On, Temporary,
or Off. If you select On, the backlight remains permanently
on. If you select Temporary, the backlight comes on for 30
seconds when a button is pressed. If you select Off the

tN4 Address

When connected to other tN4 devices through a tN4 bus,
the thermostat is automatically assigned a network address.
The tN4 address is useful when trying to correct bus error
open and short circuits.
The address includes the bus water temperature designation
and a device number. The bus water temperature designations
available are Boiler, Mix 1, Mix 2, etc. The device number
can range from 1 to 24. If the thermostat is operating as a
member of a thermostat-only network, the thermostat does
not have an address and the address item in the MISC
menu is not available.
The device number determines the heating priority for each
zone. A thermostat with device number 1 has a higher priority

Pump Exercising

When connected to a tN4 system control, the thermostat
exercises the pump relays for 10 seconds every 3 days.
Exercising helps prevent pump seizure. While the thermostat
is exercising, the display shows "Test".
Away Temperatures
By default, the Set Heat Away temperature is set to 62°F
(16.5°C).
• • To set the Away temperature, go to the Adjust menu and
select the Set Heat Away item. The Access Level must
be set to Installer or Advanced.
temperature, use the Offset feature to increase or decrease
room temperature in tenths of degrees.

than device number 24. The tN4 address allows the tN4
system control to shut off low priority zonezs when the heat
source is unable to heat all zones simultaneously. In some
cases, the installer may want to change the thermostat's
address in order to change the thermostat's priority relative
to other thermostats.
Note: Keep track of manually set tN4 addresses. When
a tN4 address is manually set, tN4 thermostats using the
Auto Address setting will automatically be assigned new
addresses.
If two thermostats are manually set to the same address, an
error message will appear. The error remains until one of
the addresses is manually changed to a vacant address.
Exercising does not occur when:
• • Mode of Operation is set to Off.
• • Heat Source is set to Other.
• • DIP switch 2 is set to None.
