User Operating Instructions
Three Channel Central Heating and
Hot Water Programmer
ChannelPlus H37XL
The ChannelPlus family of electronic programmers offer a range
of advanced features coupled with simplified 'menu driven'
programming all designed to help save energy.
The ChannelPlus H37XL is designed to give independent time
control over 3 channels of heating and hot water on a 7 day
weekly programme. Each channel offers up to 3 programmed On
/ Off operations per day for each day of the week.
For day to day operation each channel has a manual 1 or 2 hour
boost button as well as an advance button to bring forward the
next programmed operation. The back lit display, automatic clock
and menu driven programming are all features designed to make
the operation of the ChannelPlus H37XL as simple as possible to
use.

programme on each individual channel by means of the blue
‘select’ buttons under the front flap.
The options include:
AUTO - Programmer follows all programmed ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’
times.
ALL DAY - Channel operates from 1st ‘ON’ time until 3rd ’OFF’,
ignoring all switching times in between.
ON - Channel will be constantly ‘ON’.
OFF - Channel will be constantly ‘OFF’, there is the ability
to turn off heating during summer without altering the
programme times. 1 or 2 hour boost still available.
All of the settings above will be permanent, i.e. unaffected by
programme times, until alteration by the user.

that the channel is in the AUTO mode to begin with. As all
channels are totally independent it is possible to have them set
differently if necessary*.
