Chrono-proportional Control
Traditional ON/OFF room thermostats control room temperature by switching
the circulating pump, and usually the boiler, on and off.
Because of the thermal inertia of the heating equipment and the relati ely
large switching differentiials of on/off de ices large space temperature
ariations often occur, resulting in poor comfort conditions.
Chrono-proportional Control as implemented in the TP75-RF o ercomes the
problem by ensuring that the boiler fires regularly for periods calculated to
maintain radiator temperature without o erheating and to pre ent the radiator
temperature falling to a le el which can allow down draughts from cold
surfaces, e.g. windows, to cause discomfort.
The control logic works on a proportional band of 4°F which assumes that the
boiler will operate at full load when the sensed space temperature is 4°F or
more lower than the programmed set point.
The following graph shows the relati e on/off periods per cycle against
ariances in de iation from the set point.

Control Features
The TP75-RF is a wireless communication ersion of the standard hardwired
TP75 programmable thermostat. The TP75-RF, which contains a transmitter,
works in conjunction with an RX recei er module which can be located up to
30m from the thermostat.
The TP75-RF Series of programmable room thermostats incorporate two
special features that can be enabled at the time of installation - Optimum
Start Control and Chrono-proportional Control.
Optimum Start Control (OSC)
With this enabled the e ent 1 control temperature, (which would normally be
an increase from an o ernight set-back temperature), may be programmed
to be achie ed by a desired time. The heating plant will be switched on earlier
than the programmed time by a period related to the start-up cur e selected
and the space temperature sensed at the beginning of the selected start-up
period. The diagram below indicates the switch on periods for the a ailable
start-up cur es.
If OSC is disabled then the unit will operate as a con entional room
thermostat, switching on the heating plant at the e ent 1 time with the e ent
1 temperature being achie ed in a time related to the pre ailing conditions.

Switch No. 1- 5/2 DAY or 7 DAY.
When the switch is in the 7 DAY position each day may be programmed
with different switching times and temperatures. Placing the switch in
the 5/2 DAY position enables Monday to Friday to be programmed with
one set of switching times and temperatures, and Saturday and
Sunday to be programmed with a different set.
Switch No. 2 - OSC ON or OSC OFF
This is used to enable or disable the optimum start control (OSC)
function for e ent 1. To cater for different types of building construction
with differing fabric constants there are four start-up cur es from which
to choose, (see the diagram o er the page). These cur es dictate how
long before e ent 1 the heating equipment will be switched on. The
selectable start-up durations are 0:00, 0:30, 1:00, 1:30 or 2:00 (2
hours). (Selecting 0 effecti ely disables the function).
Once initiated the difference between the space temperature and the
e ent 1 temperature is used to generate a pre-heat period proportional
to the OSC period selected. The closer the space temperature is to the
e ent 1 temperature, the shorter the pre-heat period. Refer to the
earlier section on Optimum Start Control for more detail.
It is recommended that the initial setting of the OSC is 30 minutes. See
the section on post-commissioning.
Switch No. 3 - CHRONO or ON/OFF
With this switch set to ON/OFF the TP75 will act as a con entional room
thermostat, switching the heating plant to maintain the programmed
temperature. When set to CHRONO the control function selected by
switch No. 4 is enabled.
IMPORTANT. For systems with motorised zone al es ON/OFF mode
is recommended.
Switch No. - Chrono 6 or Chrono 3
This switch configures the TP75-RF to control different forms of
heating system, typically as follows:
Use Chrono 3 for high thermal inertia systems, e.g. floor standing cast
iron boilers.
Use Chrono 6 for low thermal inertia systems, e.g. low water content
boilers and combi. boilers.
See the earlier section on Chrono-proportional Control for more detail.
5. Position the slots in the top surface of the module over the lugs at the
top of the wallplate, and hinge downwards until the module is pressed
fully against the wallplate. Tighten the two screws from below to fix the
module to the wallplate.

be active after a RESET has been performed. The pre-s e t
programme is shown in the chart with the Setting Instructions.
The chart also has spaces for users own times and temperaturesa s
required by them.
19. The time and programme memory are maintained by the batteries
which should last more than two years. Every 24 months the batteries
should be renewed. Internal circuitry retains the time and programme
memory for one minute, long enough for the batteries to be changed.
If the batteries olts drop, before a change is due, a battery symbol will
blink in the display. When this occurs the TP75-RF will operate
normally for 2 weeks. After the 15th midnight all relays will switch to
OFF, the unit will shut down with just the time shown. When new
batteries are fitted the unit will start to operate normally again.

Setting Instructions.
Post-commissioning
Optimum Start Control
If this has been enabled, initially set to the recommended 30 minutes start-
up duration and the e ent 1 temperature is not achie ed by the e ent 1 time,
then refer to the Setting Instructions and increase the start-up duration one
stage, i.e. to 1 hour.
If the space temperature at the beginning of an Optimum Start sequence is
consistently lower than the programmed e ent 1 temperature by more that
2°F, then the e ent 1 temperature may not be achie ed by the e ent 1 time.
In this case the e ent 1 time should be brought forward sufficiently to
compensate, so that the comfort temperature is achie ed when actually
required.
Intelligent Anticipator
If, when the heating equipment is switched on, the room temperature is 4°F
or more lower than the programmed temperature the electronic anticipation
function measures the rate of rise in the sensed temperature and will switch
the heating plant off before the programmed temperature is reached. The
residual heat in the system after the heating plant has shut down will ensure
that the comfort temperature is achie ed. This will impro e the comfort
conditions and minimise fuel consumption.
