Setting range: 0 °C to 30° C
Default: 12 °C
F 5.3 - Curve menu 5.3 = Slope of the heating curve
The demand for heat is different due to differences in the type of building/insulation/type of heating/outdoor
temperature. The characteristic curve is used to control the heat dissipation of the heating circuit relative to
the outdoor temperature. The controller can make use of a normal straight curve (Setting simple) or a split
curve (Setting split) that is divided into 2 parts by a split point. The straight curve can be set easily using one
parameter. The characteristic curve for the split mode is adjusted in 3 steps.
In the simple setting the curve can be adjusted with the help of the graphic diagram. The slope is changed,
and the calculated reference flow temperature is displayed for -12 °C.
Setting the split curve is more precise but more complicated. First the standard slope has to be set, after that
the split point and finally the steepness of the curve after the split. While adjusting the curve, the steepness of
the slope and the calculated reference flow temperature for -12 °C outdoor temperature is displayed.
Setting range:
Heating curve: simple or split / Default: simple
Slope: 0,0-3,0 / Default: 0,8
Split point at outdoor temp.: +10 °C … -10 °C
Angle: differs, depends on steepness and split point
The diagram shows the influence of the selected
characteristic curve steepness (standard curve) on the
calculated reference flow temperature of the heating
circuit. The correct curve is appointed by setting the
intersection point of the calculated maximum flow
temperature and the minimum outdoor temperature.
Maximum calculated flow temperature 60 °C at
minimum outdoor temperature according to heat
demand calculation -12 °C. The intersection results in
a slope of 1.2.
The following settings can be used for
parallel shift of the characteristic for
certain time periods such as daytime and
nighttime mode.

Settings HC menu 5
F 5.4 - Day correction menu 5.4 = parallel shift of the curve
The day correction means a parallel shift of the heating curve during the daytime operating hours, since
depending on the outdoor temperature it is possible that the building may not be optimally heated with the set
characteristic. If the characteristic is not optimized, the following situation may occur:
in hot weather - the rooms are too cold
in cold weather - the rooms are too hot
In this case, one should gradually reduce the characteristic slope in steps of 0.2, each time raising the day
correction by 2-4 °C.
This procedure can be repeated several times as needed.
Setting range: from -10 °C to +50 °C
Default: 5 °C
F 5.5 - Night correction menu 5.5 = parallel shift of the curve
The night correction produces a parallel shift of the heating curve during the nighttime operating hours. If
a negative value is set for the night correction, the reference flow temperature is lowered accordingly during
the nighttime operating hours. In this manner, primarily at night, but also during the day when no-one is at
home, energy can be saved.
Example: A day correction of +5 °C and a night correction of -2 °C produces a reference flow
temperature in nighttime operation that is by 7 °C below that of daytime operation.
Setting range: from -30 °C to 30 °C
Default: -2 °C
F 5.6 - Comfort temperature boost menu 5.6 = parallel shift of the curve
The comfort temperature boost is added to the set day correction. In this manner it is possible to carry out
quick heating and/or a higher temperature in the living spaces at a certain time each day.
Setting range: from 0 °C to 15 °C
Default: 0 °C = off.
F 5.8 - Reference / actual - menu 5.8 = switch-on hysteresis for additional heating
This setting determines the allowed undershoot of the heating circuit temperature under the calculated
reference flow temperature. If the heating circuit flow temperature falls below the reference temperature by
this value, the additional heating (R5) is activated after a delay of 5 minutes.
Setting range: -10 °C to 10 °C
Default: -2 °C
The additional heating (relay R5) is started when the flow temperature (in case of 2 heat circuits:
one of the flow temperatures) is below the reference flow temperature for 5 minutes continuously.
F 5.9 - Reference / actual + menu 5.9 = vypínací hystereze
(only if sensor S4 is connected)
This settings determines the allowed overstepping of the heating circuit temperature to the calculated
reference flow temperature at sensor S4. If the temperature at S4 exceeds the reference flow temperature by
this value, the additional heating is switched off.
Setting range: 1 °C to 10 °C
Default: 2 °C
If sensor 4 is not connected, the additional heating at R5 is switched off when the sensor of
the heating circuit S2 (respectively, of the heating circuits S2 and S3) reaches or exceeds the
reference flow temperature.
It is recommended to install sensor 4 in the accumulation tank at the same level (or below) of the
heating circuit conduit to prevent unnecessary switching of the additional heating.

Settings Heating circuit 2 menu 6
F 6 - Settings HC 2
The necessary basic settings required for the control
function of the DHW heating are made in menu
„6. Settings HC 2”.
The menu is closed by pressing „esc” or selecting
„Exit settings”.
The settings for Su/Wi Day, Su/Wi Night,
Reference/actual- and Reference/
actual+, which are made in „Settings
heating circuit” are applied to both
heating circuits.
F 6.1 - Curve menu 6.1 = slope of the heating curve 2
The demand for heat is different due to differences in the type of building/insulation/type of heating/outdoor
temperature. The characteristic curve is used to control the heat dissipation of the heating circuit relative to
the outdoor temperature. The controller can make use of a *normal straight curve (Setting simple) or a *split
curve (Setting split) that is divided into 2 parts by a split point. The straight curve can be set easily using one
parameter. The characteristic curve for the split mode is adjusted in 3 steps.
In the simple setting the curve can be adjusted with the help of the graphic diagram. The slope is changed,
and the calculated reference flow temperature is displayed for -12 °C.
Setting the split curve is more precise but more complicated. First the standard slope has to be set, after that
the split point and finally the steepness of the curve after the split. While adjusting the curve, the steepness of
the slope and the calculated reference flow temperature for -12 °C outdoor temperature is displayed.
Setting range:
*Curve: simple or split / Default: simple
Slope: 0,0-3,0 / Default: 0,8
Splitpoint at outdoor temperature: +10 °C … -10 °C
Angle: differs, depends on steepness and split point
The following settings can be used for parallel shift of the curve for certain periods such as
daytime and nighttime.
F 6.2 - Day correction menu 6.2 = parallel shift of the heating curve 2
The day correction means a parallel shift of the heating curve during the daytime operating hours, since
depending on the outdoor temperature it is possible that the building may not be optimally heated with the set
characteristic.
If the characteristic is not optimized, the following situation may occur:
in hot weather - the rooms are too cold
in cold weather - the rooms are too hot
In this case, one should gradually reduce the characteristic slope in steps of 0.2, each time raising the day
correction by 2-4 °C.
This procedure can be repeated several times as needed.
Setting range: from -10 °C to 50 °C
Default: 5 °C
F 6.3 - Night correction menu 6.3 = parallel shift of the heating curve
The night correction produces a parallel shift of the heating curve during the nighttime operating hours. If
a negative value is set for the night correction, the reference flow temperature is lowered accordingly during
the nighttime operating hours. In this manner, primarily at night, but also during the day when no-one is at
home, energy can be saved.
Example: A day correction of +5 °C and a night correction of -2 °C produces a reference flow
temperature in nighttime operation that is by 7 °C below that of daytime operation.
Setting range: from -30 °C to 30 °C
Default: -2 °C
F 6.4 - Comfort temperature boost menu 6.4 = parallel shift of the heating curve
The comfort temperature boost is added to the set day correction. In this manner it is possible to carry out
quick heating and/or a higher temperature in the living spaces at a certain time each day.
Setting range: from 0 °C to 15 °C
Default: 0 °C = vyp.
