Quick Start Guide

Device Setup

The Home Thermostat is used to control and schedule home heating. It
wirelessly links to LightwaveRF Boiler Switch which turns on and o your Boiler.
If the Thermostat is also linked to the Lightwave Link, you can also control and
schedule your heating via the LightwaveRF App. This section will show you how
to setup the basic functions of the Home Thermostat including setting the
target temperature, modes, and creating a schedule. The following section will
show you how to link the Thermostat to other LightwaveRF Heating devices,
such as the Boiler Switch, to integrate it into your heating system.

Basic Operation

Lightwave Link Home Thermostat Boiler Switch

The default mode of operation of the Home Thermostat is referred to as
‘Running Mode’. This is denoted by the symbol of the running man on the
main display. When in Running Mode, the Thermostat implements the
pre-set heating schedule and maintains pre-set ‘on’ and ‘setback’
temperatures during the relevant set time periods (see programming
section for information on how to set this).

If the heating is on, pressing the Standby button overrides the schedule and
turns o the heating until the next ‘on period’. If the heating is o, pressing
the Standby button will turn the heating on until the next ‘o period’. When
toggling Standby, the new target temperature is briefly displayed on the
screen in place of the current temperature. If the thermostat requires the
heating to be turned on to achieve its new target temperature, a flame
symbol will be displayed to indicate that it has sent a command to the
LightwaveRF Boiler Switch to turn on the Boiler.

Holding the Standby button for a couple of seconds activates ‘Away mode’. Away
mode also reverts to a pre-set setback temperature (see setting modes); however,
rather than returning to the schedule at the next on/o period, the mode will
continue to remain active until it is manually cancelled by pressing the Standby
button. These functions can also be carried out on the LightwaveRF App.

Device Setup

The Standby button

Device Setup

The Boost function

Pressing the Boost button sets a temporary target temperature 1.5 degrees
above the current temperature for the duration of 1 hour. If there is a target
temperature higher than the current temperature already set, pressing the
boost button will match this temperature.

Pressing the button twice boosts the temperature for 2 hours, three times 4
hours, four times 8 hours, and the fifth press will cancel the boost function. An
active boost function is denoted by a sun symbol on the display. It can be
cancelled at any time by pressing the standby button (press twice to return
to normal running mode).

Setting a target temperature

The arrow shaped buttons on the Thermostat allow you to manually change
the current target temperature. Tap the up or down buttons to move the
temperature in 0.5 degree increments. The new target temperature will
remain active until standby mode is activated, the mode button is pressed to
change modes, or the next ‘heating cycle’ in the running schedule is initiated
(explained in next section). These actions will revert the target temperature
to the current existing pre-sets. Pressing the ‘Display’ button allows you to
view the current target temperature.

Device Setup

Modes

Pressing the Mode button toggles between the four Thermostat modes. Each
mode contains pre-set programmable target temperatures. When a mode is
selected, the Thermostat will be set to these target temperatures until the
mode is changed.

Running mode

The main Thermostat mode is ‘Running’. Unlike the other modes which can
only store temperatures, Running mode also allows you to create a weekly
heating schedule which can change the target temperature up to 8 times per
day. When the home is occupied, this mode should be constantly running.

Away & Holiday modes

Away and Holiday modes allow you to specify a temperature that you want
to set the heating to whilst you are away. Holiday mode also allows you to
specify the number of days that you want this to be active for.

Frost mode

This mode should be activated when the home is unoccupied for long
periods. It prevents pipes from freezing by setting a minimum temperature.

Programming Running mode

Device Setup

1. Press the ‘Program’ button and then press the ‘OK’ button when option ‘1’

appears on the display.

2. The next option screen allows you to choose which days of the week to

schedule. You can set all week days to be the same, setup week then
weekend days, or each day individually. Select the appropriate option by
using the Arrow keys to scroll and then pressing the ‘OK’ button. You will
need to return to the menu several times if you want to setup days individually.

3. Next, the target temperature and setback temperature (on and o) need

to be set for each ‘heating cycle’. Once again, use the Arrow keys to scroll
and OK to select a temperature.

4. Once this is set, you need to choose the periods of the day that you want

to be heated. Each one is referred to as a ‘heating cycle’ and is denoted on
the display by a series of blocks corresponding to the times of day marked
next to it. Set the first heating cycle by scrolling to select a start time and
pressing OK. Then select an end time and press OK. Running mode allows
up to 4 independent heating cycles. Each one of these needs to be set,
however, if you require less than 4, simply set the on and o times for
unwanted cycles to the same time which will eectively cancel them.

Setting Away, Holiday and Frost modes

Programming Time/Date, Constant & Oset temperatures

Device Setup

1. Press the ‘Program’ button, scroll using the Arrow keys, and then press the ‘OK’

button when options ‘3 (Away), 5 (Holiday) or 6 (Frost)’ appear on the display.

2. Select a target temperature by scrolling using the Arrow Keys and

pressing OK when the desired temperature has been selected. This applies
to all three modes.

.

To set the time and date, press the Program button, scroll to option 2 using
the Arrow keys, and press the OK button. Scroll to select the correct, year,
month and day followed by the time, and press OK to save it.

Selecting the constant temperature option disregards the modes and
schedules and simply allows the Thermostat to operate in real time. The
temperature can be set using the arrow keys. Press the Standby button to
cancel this feature.

Setting the oset temperature causes the Thermostat to display a current
temperature that is higher or lower that the actual temperature measured.
It can be raised or lowered in 1 degree increments using the arrow keys and
saved by pressing the OK button.

Using the Thermostat with a Boiler Switch

The Home Thermostat schedules the
heating by wirelessly controlling the
LightwaveRF Boiler Switch which turns
the boiler on or o. In the vast majority
of installs, it will also be linked to the
Lightwave Link to allow the App to
control the boiler via the Home
Thermostat.

Using Thermostats & Boiler Switches to manage a multi-zone
(upstairs/downstairs) system.

If you have an existing multi-zone heating
setup that includes motorised valves (more
common in larger houses), more than one
Home Thermostat and Boiler Switch can be
used to control each zone separately. Refer
to the Boiler Switch instruction manual for
more information about this setup. See
www.lightwaverf.com/product-manuals.

Device Setup

Linking the Thermostat to LightwaveRF heating devices

To use a LightwaveRF Home Thermostat with other
LightwaveRF heating devices, such as the Boiler Switch, you
will need to ‘link’ them. The thermostat can be linked to other
LightwaveRF heating devices using the following method.

1. Press and release the ‘link’ button on the thermostat. ‘link’

should appear on the display.

2. Press the Link button on the heating device you wish to

link. ‘Link OK’ should appear to indicate that the Thermostat
is linked.

To unlink a heating device from the Thermostat, press and
release the linking button and then press the Standby button.
This activates ‘unlinking’ mode. Press the linking button on the
heating device you wish to unlink. The ‘deleted’ should be
displayed to indicate that the devices have been unlinked.

To completely clear the memory of the Thermostat, press
and release the linking button. Then hold the linking button
until ‘clear’ is displayed. Finally, press and release the linking
button once more. ‘Cleared’ should be displayed.

Device Setup

Linking to the LightwaveRF Apps

To use the LightwaveRF App or Web App
to control the Home Thermostat, you will
first need to install the ‘Lightwave Link’.
This allows any LightwaveRF devices to be
linked to and controlled by a smartphone,
tablet or PC. The Thermostat can be linked
to the App using the following method:

2. (Intermediate): Smartphone Control from anywhere

Required: Home Thermostat, Lightwave Link, Boiler Switch

Installing a LightwaveRF Boiler Switch and linking it to a Lightwave Link and
Home Thermostat allows you to control your home heating from anywhere
using a smartphone or tablet. If you are staying late at work, you can turn o
the heating so as not to waste energy, or turn it on in advance if coming back
late on a cold night. If you are away on holiday in the winter, turn on the
heating to a low level to make sure that the house does not get cold and
damp. This simple installation can save you a significant amount of energy.

3. (Advanced): Zoned Heating

Required: Home Thermostat, Link, Boiler Switch, TRVs

With the LightwaveRF App and the Lightwave Link you can create an
expandable zoned system that can take care of your entire home.
Temperatures can be set for each room or ‘heating zone’, and heating can be
planned week by week and room by room. If you have electric radiators, you
can still achieve this by connecting them to Electric Switches. You can also
link wet radiators AND electric radiators and schedule them together for a
totally integrated heating system!

Problem: The Thermostat will not consistently operate remotely.
Solution: The Remote/Thermostat/Lightwave Link may be encountering

interference or may be at the edge of its reliable range of operation. First,
ensure that there are no large pieces of metal or bodies of water in the path
of the transmission. If the problem persists, try moving the devices closer
together.
