Introduction

The Danfoss LX thermostat can switch on your heating system at predetermined times on different days of the week. For each day of the week, you can set individual temperatures for 4 periods, cal-led events. The thermostat comes with a default schedule suitable for most installations. Unless you change the settings, the thermo-stat will operate in compliance with the default schedule. Lowering the temperature when the home is unoccupied will reduce your energy costs without reducing comfort.

Furthermore, the thermostat contains an adaptive preheat feature that automatically changes heating period start times so as to ensure that the required temperature is reached at the required time. After three days the adaptive preheat feature learns when the heating must be switched on.

First Time Settings

The fi rst time you turn on the thermostat, time and day must be set. The time fl ashes. Set the current time using the Up or Down buttons. Then press the OK button to confi rm the time. The day of the week will then fl ash. Select the current day using the Up and Down buttons. Press the OK button. The thermostat is now ready for use and will control your heating according to the pre-programmed 4-event schedule (see Factory Settings for Automatic 5:2 Program).

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)

The thermostat is GFCI protected which ensures personal safety in case of ground faults.
It is important that the GFCI is checked monthly.

Checking the GFCI

Testing can only be performed while the thermostat is calling for heat.

Adjust the setpoint until the heating symbol ( ) appears. Use the Up button to increase the heating demand and then press the OK button Wait 10 seconds to allow the thermostat to adjust to the new setpoint.

Then press the TEST button on the top of the thermostat.
The test is successful if the red light in the TEST button lights up and GROUND FAULT is shown on the display. If this does not oc-cur, check the installation/contact your electrical installer.
Press the Standby/Reset button to reset the GFCI.
The red light should go out and the display returns to normal appearance.
Press the Down button to return to the original temperature setting. If the test fails, check the heating cable and thermostat.

If during normal operation the GFCI trips without the TEST button being pressed, there could be a ground fault! To check whether it is a ground fault or nuisance tripping, press Standby/Reset.
If this causes the red light to go off and stay off, it was nuisance tripping and the system is operating correctly. If this does not occur, there is a ground fault! Contact your electrical installer.

4-Event Program

I want the temperature to be controlled automatically in accordance with a program of individual temperature settings for four separate events during a day:

  • When I wake up in the morning,

Quick Set Temperature

I want to permanently change the temperature for the event currently active in the automatic program.
To do so, you must:

  1. Press the Up or Down buttons to set the required temperature for the event currently active.
  2. Press the OK button.

The new temperature setting will then be saved and used for this event in the future.

Example: If you change the temperature on a Tuesday morning while the thermostat is running a 5:2 program, the new temperature will apply to all mornings from Monday to Friday.

Adaptive Preheat Feature

I want to ensure that the required temperature has already been reached when I get up in the morning or come home from work.

The adaptive preheat feature calculates when the thermostat must start the heating system to ensure that the required temperature is reached at the set time. Three days after the adaptive preheat feature has been activated, it has learned when the heating must be switched on to attain the required temperature.

If, for example, the thermostat shows 1° too much, the offset should be set to 1°. The temperature will then be set 1° lower.

Application

    Regulator: The thermostat functions as a simple regulator and no sensors are used.
    Room limit: The thermostat controls room temperature while using the floor sensor as a limit sensor. If you choose this option, you must set a maximum and minimum temperature for the limit sensor, so that the thermostat will switch the heating off or on if the temperature on the floor reaches the maximum or minimum temperature respectively. This can, for instance, be used to avoid excessively high temperatures on wooden flooring (maximum limit) or excessively cold temperatures on tiled/stone flooring (minimum limit). (Factory default for 088L5132)
  6. Press the OK button.
  7. Select Exit to exit the option.

Please note: Usually, the electrician who installed the thermostat will have selected the correct type of temperature control for your application.
