Standard Terms
Self Learning Optimisation is a system whereby the Heatmiser control will automatically
calculate the start up time to ensure the building is up to temperature for the programmed
switching time. It does this by monitoring the internal temperature readings, so that for example
in milder weather conditions heat up times are reduced - thus saving energy.
Compensation is a system whereby the Heatmiser monitors the Internal and External
temperatures and regulates the flow temperature according to the preset slope setting in the
control. By monitoring the internal and external temperatures the Heatmiser can calculate the
flow temperature needed to maintain the programmed room temperatures.
Pump Overrun To help dissipate the heat from the boiler, a pump overrun time can be set in
the Heatmiser Plus. When enabled, the pump will run on for a number of minutes
(programmable) after the zone has switched off.
Boiler Sequencing The Heatmiser Plus can sequence up to 6 modular boilers providing the
most efficient way of heating a building.
Alarm/Override Inputs The Heatmiser Plus has 8 inputs which can be used as zone overrides
or alarm inputs. When set as an override, the zone will override on/off when the input is made or
broken. The alarm input mode allows the Heatmiser to flash on screen an alarm message when
the input is made.
Preheat is the number of hours the control can come on before the programmed switching time
(when in optimising mode) This is set under the Engineers code and can be set to no more than 8
hours.
Rate of change is the time it takes to raise the building 1’C. The factory default for this setting
is 20 minutes but the control will automatically adjust this according to the fabric of the building.
Override Using the override button on the Heatmiser Keypad allows the user to override the
zone for a selected number of hours, to allow for unscheduled use of the system. A maximum can
be set to stop users entering long override periods.
Switching period status:
•Day is when the control is being controlled to an actual switching time. (For example
Between 07.00—18.00 the control would be in a DAY condition. Outside of these hours the
control would be in a NIGHT condition.
•Night is when no switching times have been programmed. At these times the control is set
back to the NIGHT temperature.
The Heatmiser Plus has two different types of RUN mode screens. The first is the Time/Date
screen and the other is the Zone information screen. The Zone information screen layout will
change depending on how the zone is setup.

Configuring the system
The Heatmiser Plus is our multipurpose control and has a wide number of configurations
available. This section aims to guide you through the configuration process.
To configure the Heatmiser Plus follow the steps below;
•Press PROG and enter the configuration code which will be located on the reverse side of
the Heatmiser keypad or alternatively on the Heatmiser enclosure back box.
•When you have entered the code you will be presented with the following screen.
•At this point you are able to begin 1) SYSTEM CONFIG 2) SYSTEM RESET

are able to reset the system back
to the factory defaults.
SYSTEM CONFIG.
•Press 1 for Config
•You are now presented with 5 possible zone types for Zone 1. These zone types are
explained as follows.
<1> OPT <02> COMP <03> HILO <04> BS FIXED
<05>BS VARIABLE ZONE 1 TYPE ? :
1.OPT = Optimiser. The control will automatically calculate the start up time to ensure the
building is warm by the start of the programmed switching time. It does this by monitoring
the internal temperature and adjusting the amount of preheat required.
2.COMP = Compensator. The control will automatically calculate the flow temperature
required to maintain room temperature. By monitoring the internal and external sensor
temperatures, the flow temperature can be increased or decreased to suit demand. This
calculation is worked from a slope factor which can be altered on-screen. The slope factor
is set to 06 as a factory default. In this setting for every 1 degree rise in external
temperature the flow temperature will be decreased by 3 degrees. If the slope factor
is increased to 07 - for every 1 degree rise in external the flow will be decreased by 4
degrees.
3.HILO = This setting gives control over high/low heaters. A high/low differential setting can
be set which is the number of degrees below the required temperature that the high flame
will switch off.
4.BS FIXED = This option is used when you are sequencing boilers and you have a
hot water cylinder or more than one heating zone on the boiler circuit. The control allows
you to enter a fixed flow temperature.
5.BS(VARIABLE) = This option is used when you have only one heating zone on the boiler
circuit and no hot water cylinder. This option gives you the setting to control the minimum
and maximum flow settings as well as the slope factor which is mentioned under
Compensation above.

1.Setup > Calibration
The Heatmiser Plus has eight sensor inputs and these should be calibrated after installation of the
system.
To calibrate the Heatmiser sensors you firstly need a temperature reading from a digital
thermometer, for each zone or pipe being monitored.
From this reading we are now able to calibrate each sensor on the system.
To calibrate the sensors, follow the steps below;
•Take the actual reading from your Enter calibration setting number 1 <10>
thermometer and the reading THE SENSOR IS NOW READING : 18
from the Heatmiser sensor.
•As an example, your thermometer reading is 20 and the Heatmiser sensor is 18 with a
calibration of 10. (The calibration figure is the two digits in the brackets in the above
screen) In this example there is an error of 02 degrees, however as the Heatmiser works
in 1/2 degree steps the calibration needs to be increased by 04. Therefore the calibration
figure in this example should be 14.
•The process outlined above should be repeated for all sensors on the system. Use the
ENTER key to advance through the different calibration screens.
1.Setup > Maximum override time
To avoid excessive use of the Override button it is recommended that a maximum override time
is programmed in to the control.
•Enter the maximum override period Enter the maximum override you want from
