programme for heating, hot water and
circulation pump for connection to
Vaillant heating equipment with eBus.
The connection between the room
temperature thermostat and the heating
unit is by radio link.
The VRT 360f enables you to specify the
room temperature using heating
programs. In addition, you can select
special functions such as the party
function, and control the timed
operation of a boiler and a circulation
pump.

operating mode (e.g. ), or, if
activated, the special function and the
current room temperature, the day of
the week, the time and the symbol for
heating, hot water and/or the circulation
pump, depending on which is requested.
