What is TPI control?
TPI (Time Proportional and Integral) control is an algorithm that reduces temperature fluctuations by cycling the heating more frequently as the target temperature is approached.
Troubleshooting
The heating does not turn on when expected
Verify the thermostat is in the correct operating mode and check that the target temperature is set higher than the current room temperature.
The display is blank
Ensure the mains power supply is active and that the thermostat is correctly wired to the 230Vac supply.
Temperature readings seem inaccurate
Ensure the thermostat is not mounted near heat sources (lamps, radiators) or in an area subject to direct cold drafts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician, as this is a 230Vac mains-operated device. The unit is designed for recessed wall mounting and should be installed in a location away from direct sunlight or drafts to ensure accurate sensor readings.
Compatibility: The volt-free contacts allow this unit to switch a wide range of heating equipment, including boilers and zone valves.
Care: To maintain the device, keep the front interface free of dust. Use a dry or slightly damp lint-free cloth for cleaning; avoid harsh chemical cleaners or water ingress as the unit has an IP20 protection rating, meaning it is not protected against water spray.
