Operation (Overview)
1. Principle of function
The INSTAT+ 868-r is a programmable room thermostat that allows you to set time
periods (up to 6 per day) and temperatures to suit your own lifestyle. Once fully
installed and powered the device will automatically show the correct time and in auto
mode will control your heating system according to pre-set program 1 (see 7.). The
temperature is controlled by sensing air temperature, switching on the heating when
the air temperature falls below the thermostat setting and switching it off once this set
temperature has been reached.
No wiring is necessary, the information will be transmitted via RF to a receiver.
An INSTAT 868-a.... radio receiver is required for operation.
NOTE:
The adjusted values (while programming) will be accepted automatically after ~5 sec.
2. How to Insert / change batteries (2 AA 1,5V Alkaline)
When the batteries start to run low, the battery icon (see I) starts to blink.
The thermostat continues to function normally.
After ~ 6 months, the device will cease to function and will permanently display the
battery icon. Dispose of batteries according to legislation.
3. Automatic mode (AUTO)
In this mode, the room temperature is automatically controlled according to the pre-
set program. The pointer indicating the mode is set to AUTO. The number at the bot-
tom right indicates the program event during the day. (Fig. 1)
4. How to change the temperature for a short period of time
(override)
When in AUTO mode, you can override the existing temperature setting for a short
period of time.
Press the + or – buttons to change the temperature setting.
While in temperature override the pointer indicates both AUTO and MAN (Fig. 2).
When the next programmed time/temperature event is reached, the device will revert
to the AUTO mode.
5. How to set a constant room temperature (manual operation)
In this mode, a constant temperature can be set and the pre-set program is ignored.
The last temperature selected here is chosen as the initial temperature
How to activate this mode
Press the < button until the pointer indicates MAN (Fig. 3).
Set the temperature by pressing the + / – buttons
Exit the mode
by pressing the > button
6. How to set the room temperature for a set time
(holiday/party mode)
In this mode, the temperature can be set for periods of time ranging from a few hours
up to 199 days, e.g. when you are away from home for longer periods of time (holi-
days).
The remaining hours/days are shown. Time periods between 1 hour and 23 hours and
1 day and 199 days can be set.
How to activate this mode
Press the < button until the pointer indicates the suitcase icon (Fig. 4)
Set the time
by pressing the + / – button
Select the temperature
by pressing the > button
Set the temperature
by pressing the + / – button
Once you have set the temperature, it will flash for 10 seconds and then start the hol-
iday/party period.
To exit this mode, press < or >.
When hours have been set, the thermostat will return to AUTO mode once the set
hours have passed.
When days have been set, the thermostat will return to AUTO mode at midnight of the
last day.
Note: the current day (today) must be included in the setting.
e.g. 1 day is set; the thermostat returns to AUTO today at midnight.

7. Pre-set programs
There are 3 pre-set time/temperature programs which are already available in the
thermostat. Pre-set program 1 (as shown below) is the default. Therefore, if pre-set
program 1 is the best program to suit your lifestyle, you do not need to change the
time/temperature settings on the device.
To select an other program see 9.2

9.3 How to change the number of events per day (option 3, table 1)
2, 4 or 6 time/temperature events can be selected for all days according to individual
need (unused events will be skipped). If there is no need for 6 events, choosing 4
makes programming easier.
9.4 How to switch on/off the automatic daylight savings time/standard time
change (option 4, table 1)
You can select whether or not you want the time change to be carried out automatical-
ly. If it is not carried out automatically, the time has to be adjusted manually (see 9.5).

To switch off the protection lock, set this option to OFF.
9.9 Master/Slave (option 13, 14, table 1)
The INSTAT+ 868-r can be used as Master-thermostat; it is a time master. With the time
Master, rooms controlled from simple transmitters INSTAT 868-r1 (slaves) will set back
or set up its temperature according the time info from the Master. The temperature
limits can be set with option 13 and 14.
Note: If option 13 and 14 are set to the same value, then the slave rooms will only be
controlled to its comfort temp. and comfort temp. -4°. The area comfort temp. -2° is
not available.
For Heating
As compare values, the lower temperature from the active program and (Auto, tem-
porary override, Man and Holiday) will be used
E.g. Active program = 21°, Man = 12°
12° will be used, the slave’s rooms will set back the temp by 4°
For Cooling
As compare values, the higher temperature from the active program and (Auto, tem-
porary override, Man and Holiday) will be used
E.g. Active program = 21°, Man = 25°
25° will be used, the slave’s rooms will set up the temp by 4° (the slaves need to
be set to cooling mode)
