5. Installation
5.1 Ensure the mains supply is switched off and the circuit supply fuses
are removed or the circuit breaker turned off.
5.2 Disconnect the mains supply from the wiring centre.
5.3 Mount the power box next to the wiring centre (where fitted),
or the boiler.
5.4 Use the power box as a template to mark the position of the mounting
screws. Drill the mounting hole taking care to avoid any joists, electrical
cables or water/gas pipes that may be hidden beneath the surface.
5.5 Insert the rawl plugs into the holes that have been drilled and align the
power box with the mounting holes. Then insert the screws and tighten
until a firm hold of the power box is ensured.
5.6 Connect the live (brown) and neutral (blue) wires on the power box
to a 230V AC supply from the wiring centre, making sure the polarities
match up accordingly with the wiring centre. Refer to the connection
diagram (section 6) for reference.
5.7 Remove the connections from the existing thermostat from the wiring
centre. If there is a neutral connection (blue) this is no longer required
for the installation and must be disconnected. Refer to the connection
diagram (section 6) for reference.
5.8 Connect the existing thermostat connections in the wiring centre to the
two black wires from the power box flex marked boiler. These are volt
free connections, and are not polarity sensitive. Refer to the connection
diagram (section 6) for reference.
5.9 Connect the previously removed wires that go from the wiring centre
to the thermostat to the white wires from the power box, marked
thermostat. The wires are not polarity sensitive. Remove the existing
thermostat if fitted. Refer to the connection diagram (section 6)
for reference.

joists, electrical cables
or water/gas pipes that
may be hidden beneath
the surface.
5.12 Insert the rawl plugs into the holes that have been drilled.
5.13 Connect the two white coloured wires from the flex of the power box
to the TRTWIFI. The wires are not polarity sensitive. If there are 3 wires,
then omit the neutral (blue) wire.
5.14 Re-fit the front of the TRTWIFI by hooking the lower edge over the tab,
and pressing the top home until it clicks, taking care not to bend
the 8 connecting pins.
5.15 Reconnect the mains supply

Manual Override
• The temperature can be manually over ridden, by touching on the set
temperature and selecting a new one. This will override the programmed
temperature until the next programmed change. The symbol will
show on the screen. To revert back to the programmed temperature,
touch the symbol and the override will be cancelled.
Operating Modes
• The following options are available in mode settings through the devices
home screen.

13
14
Auto: Output is controlled by the target temperature set for the day
periods. The target temperature for a programmed period can be
temporarily overridden using the manual override function.
Permanent OFF: Output will remain off until auto is re-enabled
by the user. In this mode, manual override is disabled and programmes
will not run.
Permanent ON: Output will switch on when the temperature drops below
the target temperature set. Once the target temperature has been reached
the output will switch OFF. This action will repeat indefinitely unless the
mode has been changed.
Holiday: Output is switched off until the date entered by the user, at which
time the programme schedule will default back to running as normal.
Frost Protection Mode: Output is switched off unless the room
temperature drops below 5°C.
• Only one mode can be selected at any time. Permanent OFF, ON,
and holiday can be cancelled by returning the App to Auto mode
or by pressing the mode button on the thermostat.
Programme Entry
• The App supports multiple programmed times, with an easy repeat function
for different days. Up to 6 timed periods can be added with a target
temperature from 5°C to 35°C.
• Timed periods and their temperatures are programmed via the programme
key on the device home page. Hold the chosen programme set (normally
named default) and press edit to begin setting your timed periods for the
device. Hold the chosen time or temperature down to edit the timed periods
and their temperature counterparts, hold the day MTWTFSaSu to change
weekly repeats, or select the – or + buttons to add or remove pages.
The default plan is:
06:00 21°C
08:00 17°C
12:00 21°C
14:00 17°C
16:30 21°C
22:30 17°C

Quick Programming Tips
• Up to 6 timed temperature periods are allowed per day.
• They can be edited or deleted by holding the time or temperature.
• If there are less than 6 periods, new periods can be added using the + key.
• The active repeats are shown in dark blue and active days for other pages
are shown in turquoise.
• Days can be selected and deselected by touching the day required.
• The dots or grey squares show the number of pages, with the bold square
being the active page.
• If a day is de-selected, it shows grey; this would mean that the programme
last will continue to run until the next active day with a programme
takes over.
• If there are grey days, a new page can be added using the + page button.
If there are no grey days, new pages cannot be added because all the days
would be active on one of the pages from that programme set.
• If individual day programming is required, this can be achieved by having
only one active day per page until no additional pages can be added.
(Page 1 M, Page 2 Tu, Page 3 W, Page 4 Th) etc.
Note: On exiting programming, any days that are grey will be
deleted. Days cannot be left inactive. If a day is missing, the last
temperature set will be active until the next programmed day.
Resetting the Thermostat
• Put the thermostat into couple mode, (see page 8). Press + or - to see the
following menu options; Couple, Time entry, programming, copy, technical,
and reset. Press set to select.
• Technical can be used to re-calibrate the displayed temperature.
• It is recommended that the Programastat+ App is used to perform all
programming operations, but changes made here at the thermostat
will be reflected in the App on your phone.

Advanced Settings
The advanced settings menu can be found on the mode settings page
relevant to the user’s device and allows the user to do the following
• Users: Allows the main account holder to add additional users know as
sub account users. Sub-account users can manipulate the control aspects
of the TRTWIFI but will not be able to delete the device from the main
holders account. Sub-account users must register via the user’s option in
the advanced settings menu while the main account holder is logged in,
this way the App will register any sub-account user to the main account
holders TRTWIFI device.
IMPORTANT Sub-account users must not register via the
registration screen when they download the App,
this will result in creating a main account.
• Controls: Allows the user to change the temperature swing between
0.5 and 1.0, and turn on the optimum start function and proportional
control function.
• App download: Allows the user to check which version of the App
they are using and check for updates. This feature is only available on the
Android version of the App. IOS users must update the App via the
Apple Store.
• User manual: Provides links to our website, the relevant instructions
and to our YouTube channel.
• About: Provides the company address and contact details for any
problems with the unit.
• Config devices: Allows the user to change the router or extension
the device is connected to.
• Time format: Allows the user to change the time format between
a 12/24 hour clock.
• Privacy policy: Directs the user to the Timeguard privacy policy page
on our website.
