Operating Instructions

 

RDF400...

 

 

 

RDF400... – the room thermostat that allows you to set the ideal room temperature.  
The thermostat provides Comfort, Energy Saving, and Protection mode and can operate in Auto timer mode using 
8 programmable time schedules.  

 

The fan operates either in Auto mode or at a speed selected in Manual mode.  

 

You can either take advantage of the thermostat's factory settings or adjust it as needed.

Press the   button until you reach the desired fan mode. 

 

In Auto mode, the thermostat automatically selects the fan speed based on set-
point and actual room temperature. The fan continues to run at low speed 
(factory setting) after the room temperature reaches the setpoint . 

 

In manual mode, the fan always runs at the speed that you select:  
Low fan speed 
Medium fan speed 
High fan speed

Press operating mode button   to change the operating mode display. 
In protection mode, the plant stops operating. However, if the room temperature 
drops below 8 °C, heating is switched on to protect the room against frost.  
Your HVAC installer can change the frost protection limit and set a heat pro-
tection limit as needed: 

Changes made by installer: 

 

 

Frost protection:  ...........

Heat 

protection:

In Comfort mode, the thermostat maintains the room temperature on the set-
point which can be readjusted using the + and – buttons. 

 

In Energy Saving mode, the room temperature is maintained at a lower or higher 
setpoint, thus saving energy and money.  
Adjust parameters P11 and P12 to change the preselected setpoints. 
The thermostat can be set to Energy Saving mode 

either

 by pressing the ope-

rating mode button if enabled (P02 = 2), 

or

 via an external signal (switch) such 

as window contact, keycard or presence detector. 

 

In Auto timer mode, the thermostat automatically switches between Comfort 
and Energy Saving mode according to the time schedule.

Changeover between cooling and heating is either
