Salus RT505TX Manual 011_89 04/09/2012 08:59 Page 4 INTRODUCTION A programmable thermostat is a transmitter that combines the functions of both a room thermostat and heating controller into a single unit. The programmable thermostat is used to switch the heating system in your home on and off as needed. It works by controlling the temperature according to a series of programmed settings that take effect at different times of the day.
Salus RT505TX Manual 011_89 04/09/2012 08:59 Page 5 The ideal position to locate the RT505TX thermostat is about 1.5m above floor level. It should be mounted in a location where the thermostat is accessible, reasonably lit and free from extremes of temperature and draughts. Do not mount the thermostat on an outside wall, above a radiator or in a location where it may be subjected to direct sunlight.
