  • Page 1 COMPUTHERM Q7 Programmable digital room thermostat design! Operating Instructions...
  • Page 2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE THERMOSTAT COMPUTHERM Q7 type switched-mode room thermostat is suitable to regulate the overwhelming majority of boilers and conditioners. easily connected boiler conditioning device that has a double wire connector for a room thermostat, regardless of whether it has a 24V or 230V control circuit.
  • Page 3 The device can be programmed according to customer-specific requirements so that the heating/cooling system heats/cools your residence or office to the required temperature at the dates and times specified by you, to reduce energy costs while maintaining comfort. Separate temperature programs can be prepared for each day of the week.
  • Page 4 19.8°C or below, and switches it off at 20.2°C or above. Please refer to Section 3.4 for the modification of the factory default switching sensitivity of ±0.2°C. The thermostat is equipped with a pump protection function, which, to prevent the pump from sticking, switches on the boiler for a one minute period at 12:00 p.m.
  • Page 5 The information shown on the liquid crystal display of the thermostat includes the following: Programme number Manual control indicator The days of the week Set temperature Time Temperature modification until the next manual Low battery voltage interference Current temperature of the room Sign of the boiler/air Timed manual conditioner...
  • Page 6 1. LOCATION OF THE DEVICE It is reasonable to locate it in a room used regularly or for many hours per day so that it is in the direction of natural ventilation in the room but protected from drought or extreme heat (e.g. direct sunlight, refrigerator, chimney, etc).
  • Page 7 2. INSTALLATION OF THE THERMOSTAT Pressing the lock on the upper side of the housing of the thermo- stat, remove the back cover of the thermostat as shown in the figure. With the help of the screws provid- ed and some tools fasten the rear Latch panel of the device to the wall.
  • Page 8 No. 1 (NO); No. 2 (COM) and No. 3 (NC). These con- nection points are located under an inner cover on the inner side of the rear panel. Connect the two connection points of the heating or cooling equipment to be controlled to terminals No.
  • Page 9 ATTENTION! Always consider the loadability of the thermostat and follow the manufacturer’s instructions of the heating or cooling equipment. The device must be installed and connected by a qualified professional. The voltage appearing at terminals No. 1 (NO) and No. 2 (COM) depends only on the system being controlled, therefore the dimensions of the wire are determined by the type of the device to be controlled.
  • Page 10 3. PUTTING THE THERMOSTAT INTO OPERATION, BASIC SETTINGS 3.1 Inserting batteries The battery compartment is in the inner side of the front panel of the housing. Insert 2 AA alkaline batteries (LR6 type) in accordance with the diagram in the battery compartment. After the batteries have been inserted, the display flashes the day, time and program number as well as the adjusted and measured temperatures.
  • Page 11 3.2 Setting the current day and time Press the “SET” button to go to the main screen, then press the “DAY” button. At this time only the first three letters of the current day will flash on the display of the thermostat and the hour and minute values can be seen.
  • Page 12 buttons on the front panel of the device, set the minute value of the current time. When you wish to continue modifying the settings, please press the “DAY” button again. If you wish to finish settings, confirm them by pressing the “SET” button. At this point adjusted data are recorded and the device goes back to the main screen (if no buttons are pressed for at least 15 seconds, the settings are automatically confirmed and the device goes back to the main screen).

  • Page 14 3.4 Setting the switching sensitivity (accuracy) The switching sensitivity means the temperature difference between the adjusted value and the actual temperature measured during the switching process. A smaller switching sensitivity results in steadier room temperature and therefore in higher comfort. The heat loss of the room (building) does not depend on the switching sensitivity.

  • Page 18: Programming The Thermostat

    4. PROGRAMMING THE THERMOSTAT 4.1 A brief introduction to programming • Programming means the setting of switching times and selection of accompanying temperature levels. The device can be programmed for a one-week period. Its operation is automatic, and it will cyclically repeat the programs that have been keyed in.
  • Page 19 • The start time of switch , which cannot be PROG changed, only its temperature can be adjusted. So under the factory default settings, the thermostat performs only one switch ( ) every day, which is in effect from until PROG the next day.
  • Page 20 using a stove, more gas is needed to keep a pan of water boiling than to just keep it warm.) – • The switches are deactivated by factory default PROG PROG (their start time is ), but they can be activated at need. Their start time can be freely set between at 10-minute intervals given the constraint, that their start time should be in...
  • Page 21 • In order to enter the programming mode, press the “SET” button and hold it down and press the “PROG” button, too. During the programming the values being adjusted are flashing on the display. The modification of these values can always be done using the large buttons.
  • Page 22 selection of days). But be aware: if the program of all the days are created together, than their program can only be modified together. Therefore, if a different program is needed for at least one day, then the program of the days should be created separately, and the repeated programs should be copied using the “COPY”...
  • Page 23 23°C during the day. During that time of the day, when the family is at work or school, only a lower temperature is needed. As heating up and cooling down usually takes a long time, it is reasonable to set the start time of the switches 0.5-1 hour before the desired time of the modified temperature.

Following this, with the help of the buttons, set the comfort temperature selected by you. After the temperature has been set, press the “SET” button to save the modification (after approximately 15 seconds, it is automatically saved).
  • Page 37 During this temporary modification, the segments indicating the time on the display alternately show the exact time (TIME) and the time remaining in manual control (TIME LEFT, for example that is 4 hours and 2 minutes). After this time has elapsed, the icon disappears and the device resumes the program that has been set.
