An introduction to your programmable room thermostat
Your programmable room thermostat allows you to programme
different temperatures at different time periods. You can programme
one set of times and temperatures for week days with a different set of
temperatures for weekend days, this is referred to as 5/2 day operation.
The thermostat can also be set up by your installer to provide one set
of times and temperatures that are repeated each day of the week. This
is referred to as 24 hour operation.
The thermostat can also be set by you to provide two different
programming blocks which can then be assigned to any day of the
week, this is referred to as A/B programme operation.
All thermostats can be set by your installer to provide up 2, 4 or 6 time
and temperature settings each day.
All thermostats feature useful overrides, including a programmable
frost setting.
Your thermostat has some advanced features which the installer will
set-up if they are required.There are also a number of advanced features
which can be set up by you. These advanced settings alter the way that
your thermostat operates, some also affect the programming functions
and the user overrides. Please read the User Advanced Programming
instructions before programming the unit (see page 10).
Preset programmes
Your TP5001 comes ready programmed with a set of operating times and
temperatures which suit most people. Please remember that some of the
options available will depend on how the installer has set up the unit.

Note: If set up for 4 events per day, events 3 & 4 are skipped. If set up
for 2 events per day, events 2, 3, 4 & 5 are skipped. In both cases the
events are re-numbered.
Before you start
Open the flap on the front of the programmer and
press the RESET button with a non-metallic object
until the display goes blank. This will ensure that
the factory programmes are set and that the micro-
computer in the product is operating correctly.
Customising the display
For the sake of clarity, the instructions assume that the display setting
uses a 24 hour clock, °C and that days of the week are numbered 1-7,
(where 1 is Monday). All of these settings can be personalised after the
thermostat has been programmed, see pages 8 and 9.
Setting the correct date and time
Your TP5001 incorporates a real time clock with calendar function that
automatically changes time in both Spring and Autumn. The time and
date is set in the factory for the CET time zone, and does not normally
require adjustment. If you live in another time zone refer to“Time zone
offset” on page 11. However, should it be found necessary to adjust
time or date for any other reason refer to the following instructions.

Your thermostat includes an optional optimum start control. This
feature allows you to set the time at which you require a room
temperature by. The thermostat then calculates how soon before the
event time the system must be turned up to ensure that the room is at
the temperature by the required time. A full description of this and how
to enable it and set it up is given in User Advanced Programming,
steps 12 & 13, (page 12 and 13).
Battery replacement (battery models only)
