Temperature display in °C or °F: DIP switch 3
DIP switch ON: Temperature display in °F. DIP switch OFF: Temperature display in °C (factory setting). Press the DIP switch reset button to save the settings.

Start optimization: DIP switches 4 and 5
Optimization advances the switch-on point P.1 to ensure that the selected setpoint is reached at the desired time. The setting depends on the controlled system, i.e., on heat transmission (piping system, radiators), building dynamics (building mass, insulation), and heat output (boiler capacity, flow temperature). DIP switches 4 ON and 5 ON: 1 h/°C For slow controlled systems. DIP switches 4 ON and 5 OFF: ¼ h/°C For fast controlled systems. DIP switches 4 OFF and 5 ON: ½ h/°C For medium controlled systems. DIP switches 4 OFF and 5 OFF: OFF Off, no effect (factory setting). Press the DIP switch reset button to save the settings.

Note on synchronization
During startup, REV..DC synchronizes automatically to the time signal (DCF77) from Frankfurt, Germany. Synchronization takes max. 10 minutes. Synchronization restarts each time you press the button or move the program selection slider from the RUN position during these 10 minutes. Siemens recommends to set the desired settings upon startup, install the REV..DC in the desired location, and not carry out any actions on the REV..DC for the next 10 minutes. In normal operation, the REV..DC synchronizes to the radio clock every day at 3:10 a.m.

Note on reception
The time signal from Frankfurt is modulated to a radio signal. The reception of this radio signal depends on the distance to Frankfurt, atmospheric conditions as well as the location where the REV..DC is installed. Siemens cannot guarantee that the REV..DC can receive the time signal from Frankfurt at any time and any place

No reception
The radio clock symbol is deactivated and an error message is displayed if the clock was not able to synchronize the time for 7 consecutive days. The controller then runs on the internal quartz.

DIP switch reset
After you change one or several DIP switch positions, you must press the DIP switch reset button to reset the DIP switch. Otherwise, the previous setting remains active!.
