INSTAT+ 2R Programmable Thermostat

Operation (Overview)

Principle of function

INSTAT+ the programmable room thermostat allows you to set time periods (up to 6 per day) and temperatures to suit your own lifestyle. Once fully installed and powered the device will automatically set the correct time and in auto mode will control your heating system according to pre-set program 1 (see 7.). The temperature is controlled by sensing air temperature, switching on the heating when the air temperature falls below the thermostat setting, and switching it off once this set temperature has been reached.
NOTE:
The adjusted values (while programming) will be accepted automatically after ~5 sec.

How to insert batteries (2 AA 1,5V Alkaline)

Automatic mode (AUTO)
In this mode, the room temperature is automatically controlled according to the pre-set program. The pointer indicates the mode is set to AUTO. The number at the bottom right indicates the program event during the day. (Fig. 1)

How to change the temperature for a short period of time (override)
When in AUTO mode, you can override the existing temperature setting for a short period of time. Press the + or – buttons to change the temperature setting. While in temperature override the pointer indicates both AUTO and MAN (Fig. 2). When the next programmed time/temperature event is reached, the device will revert to the AUTO mode.

How to set a constant room temperature (manual operation)
In this mode, a constant temperature can be set, and the pre-set program is ignored. The temperature last selected is chosen as the initial temperature.

How to activate this mode
Press the < button until the pointer indicates MAN (Fig. 3). Set the temperature by pressing the +- button Exit the mode by pressing the > button

How to set the room temperature for a set time (holiday/party mode)

In this mode, the temperature can be set for periods of time ranging from a few hours up to 199 days, e.g. when you are away from home for longer periods of time (holidays). The remaining hours/days are shown. Time periods between 1 hour and 23 hours and 1 day and 199 days can be set.

How to activate this mode
Press the < button until the pointer indicates the suitcase icon (Fig. 4)

  • Set the temperature by pressing the +- button
  • Select the time by pressing the < button
  • Set the time by pressing the +– button

Once you have set your time period, the time will flash for 10 seconds and then start the holiday/party period.
To exit this mode, press < or >.
When hours have been set, the controller will return to AUTO mode once the set hours have passed.
When days have been set, the controller will return to AUTO mode at midnight of the last day.
Note: the current day (today) must be included in the setting. e.g. 1 day is set; the controller returns to AUTO today at midnight.

Pre-set programs
There are 3 pre-set time/temperature programs that are already available in the controller. Pre-set program 1 (as shown below) is the default. Therefore, if pre-set program 1 is the best program to suit your lifestyle, you do not need to change the time/temperature settings on the device. To select another program see 9.3

If operating mode “7 days” is chosen (see installer options, option 1), the days can be selected as blocks or individual days (Fig. 5 to 8). The blocks are selected by repeatedly pressing the > button.
Note: To facilitate programming, blocks of days with the same times/temperatures can be formed before starting.

Program 1 (home during the day)

Program 2 (home for lunch and on weekends)

Program 3 (at work all day)

How to adjust the pre-set time/temperature program to suit personal needs

  • Select the day function by pressing the > button up to position “Day”
  • Select the day by pressing the +- button
  • Set the times for this day
  • Select the event (1…6) by pressing the > button
  • Set the time by pressing the +- button
  • Select the temperature by pressing the > button
  • Set the temperature by pressing the +- button
  • The > button must be pressed to accept a setting.
  • If you wish to change other events or days, repeat the actions described above. To return to auto mode, press the < button.
    Note: The last event of the current day can be extended up to the first event of the following day.

How to change user options

The controller offers a number of options that can be changed by the user (see Table 1.). To activate the menu, in AUTO Mode press the < and > buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds elect an option by pressing the < or > button Change an option by pressing the +- button Press < or > to accept each change.

How to switch off the programmable thermostat (option 8, table 1)
When switched off, the programmable thermostat no longer controls the room temperature, and the room is not heated. The display will show OFF, and the buttons will not function. In the installer options (refer to Installation Guide) you can select whether or not frost protection is to active (heating is called for if the temperature falls below 5°C) when the programmable thermostat is switched off.

How to change the batteries
When the batteries start to run low, the battery icon (refer to Fig. 1) starts to blink. The controller continues to function normally. After roughly 6 months, the device will cease to function and will permanently display the battery icon (Fig. 9). Disposal of batteries according to legislation.

How to change the time, day, month, and year
The controller comes with a pre-set clock, which also automatically switches from daylight savings time to standard time. There should be no need to change these settings. However, should the need arise, the
settings can be changed in the following way.
