Introduction to the ME-Control Thermostat
The ME-control thermostat is very user friendly and has intelligent software to guide the user throughout the whole menu-structure. The thermostat is capable of switching your underfloor heating system on and off, up to four different times of the day. The ME-control has an automatic Setback period. The setback periods are the events between your comfort periods. This will lower your room temperature as well as your energy costs without reducing the comfort.
In order to program just follow the onscreen information, you will be guided through the different menus and functions automatically.
Nevertheless it is strongly recommended to study the operators manual carefully and keep it for future reference.
The ME-Control has a 3-button structure:
Middle button : Selection button, higher/lower and Scroll through options.
Right button : to confirm choices/settings and to proceed.
Left button : to rectify wrong choices and settings.
* Some menu parts contain more program choices than displayed at first sight. Use middle button to scroll down until "Back to main Screen" is displayed, this is always the last choice in all menus.

Energy consumption formula:
The read out of energy consumption is as follows;
30 days x 24 hours x %Last 365 days x Installed power = energy consumption in kWh
100
365 days x 24 hours x %Last 365 days x Installed power = energy consumption in kWh
100
Example:
30 days x 24 hours x 20 (% Last 365 days) x 1.7 (kW installed power) = 244 kWh
100
If the energy consumption screen displays N/A, this means there is no available percentage at present time. Thermostat hasn't reached the period of measuring yet.
