Energy Effi ciency and the Environment
Home	energy	use	is	responsible	for	more	than	¼	of	the	total	UK	carbon	emissions	which	 contribute	 to	 climate	 change.	 Heating	 and	 hot	 water	 systems	 based	 on	boilers	 account	 for		 of	 this	 fi	gure,	 so	 it	 is	 important	 to	 understand	 how	 your	controls	can	help	to	maximize	energy	effi	ciency	while	maintaining	your	comfort.
Your	 Programmer	 should	 be	 used	 in	 conjunction	 with	 appropriate	 temperature	controls.	 In	 order	 to	 save	 energy	 the	 following	 general	 points	 should	 be	observed:
1.	 Ensure	 your	 system	 contains	 a	 room	 thermostat	 and	 a	 hot	 water	 thermostat,	and	 that	 both	 are	 set	 to	 appropriate	 temperature	 levels:	 typically	 20°C	 for	 the	room	temperature	and	between	55	-	60°C	for	the	hot	water	temperature.
2.	 Programme	your	heating	and	hot	water	to	be	off	when	you	are	not	in	the	house.	If	you	are	concerned	about	possible	frost	damage	to	any	exposed	pipe	work,	it	is	advisable	to	fi	t	a	frost	protection	system	–	your	installer	can	advise	you	about	this.
3.	 Think	 about	 how	 you	 use	 your	 domestic	 hot	 water	 –	 if	 you	 have	 a	 storage	system,	it	is	not	necessary	to	have	this	switched	on	all	the	time,	even	when	you	are	in	the	house.
4.	 Consider	 the	 heat	 up	 times	 required	 for	 your	 central	 heating.	 Every	 home	responds	 differently	 when	 the	 heating	 is	 switched	 on.	 Adjust	 the	 start	 time	 so	that	you	are	not	cold	when	you	get	up	in	the	morning.	A	shorter	heat	up	time	is	required	for	other	heating	periods.
5.	 In	 the	 evening,	 when	 the	 house	 is	 up	 to	 temperature,	 it	 is	 often	 possible	 to	switch	off	the	heating	up	to	an	hour	before	you	go	to	bed,	without	any	noticeable	reduction	in	comfort.

WHAT IS A PROGRAMMER?
...an Explanation for Householders (as recommended by the Energy Savings Trust)
Programmers	allow	you	to	set	‘On’	and	‘Off’	time	periods.	Some	models	switch	the	central	heating	and	 domestic	 hot	 water	 on	 and	 off	 at	 the	 same	 time,	 while	 others	 allow	 the	 domestic	 hot	 water	and	 heating	 to	 come	 on	 and	 go	 off	 at	 different	 times.	 Set	 the	 ‘On’	 and	 ‘Off’	 time	 periods	 to	 suit	your	own	lifestyle.	On	some	programmers	you	must	also	set	whether	you	want	the	heating	and	hot	water	to	run	continuously,	run	under	the	chosen	‘On’	and	‘Off’	heating	periods,	or	be	permanently	off.	The	time	on	the	programmer	must	be	correct.	Some	types	have	to	be	adjusted	in	spring	and	autumn	at	the	changes	between	Greenwich	Mean	Time	and	British	Summer	 Time.	 You	 may	 be	 able	 to	 temporarily	 adjust	 the	 heating	programme,	 for	 example,	 ‘Override’,	 ‘Advance’,	 or	 ‘Boost’.	 These	are	 explained	 in	 the	 manufacturer’s	 instructions.	 The	 heating	 will	not	work	if	the	room	thermostat	has	switched	the	heating	off.	And,	if	 you	 have	 a	 hot-water	 cylinder,	 the	 water	 heating	 will	 not	 work	 if	the	cylinder	thermostat	detects	that	the	hot	water	has	reached	the	correct	temperature.

WHAT IS A PROGRAMMER?
General Description
Your  Honeywell  ST9400A  provides  timing  control  for  both  your  central  heating  and hot water systems, letting you set ON and OFF periods to suit your own lifestyle. 
The ST9400A does not directly control the temperature but works together with other temperature controls, such as room thermostats and cylinder thermostats, to control your heating and hot water system in your home.
ST9400A has 1-day programming and 2 on/off periods per day. It is simple to use but still allows heating and hot water to be set at different times from each other.
The  following  instructions  explain  how  to  programme  and  use  the  ST9400A  to provide the most home comfort at the least cost.
The way to use a Programmer
Think about the time periods when you are typically in the house and when you are not,  and  also  the  times  when  you  use  a  lot  of  hot  water.  These  are  the  times  you should  use  as  the  basis  for  the  programmes.  It  will  be  necessary  to  allow  some heat-up time for the heating system after periods when it has been off – this would typically be 1 - 1½ hours, depending on your house and your preferences.
Other features are commonly available on the Programmer to enhance comfort and convenience, for example, OVERRIDE, EXTRA HOUR, and MODE buttons.
A  typical  use  of  the OVERRIDE  feature  is  when  you  return  home  unexpectedly  for the rest of the day and the heating is off. Just press the OVERRIDE button and the heating  will  come  on  until  the  next  programme  time,  at  which  point  it  will  follow  the normal  programme.  The  advantage  here  is  that  you  do  not  have  to  remember  to switch off because the normal time programme does this for you.
A typical use of the EXTRA HOUR button would be if you returned to the house for a  short  period  when  the  heating  and  hot  water  were  off.  Pressing  the  appropriate EXTRA HOUR button gives you 1, 2, or 3 hours of heating, exactly when you need it. Another typical use is when the heating is already on and you want it to stay on a little longer - just press EXTRA HOUR and, for that day only, an hour will be added to the end of the time at which heating normally goes off.
The MODE  buttons  allow  you  to  select  how  you  want  to  operate  heating  and  hot water independently.  The  most  obvious  use  is  to  switch  heating OFF  during  the summer  months,  but  you  may  also  use  this  feature  if  you  take  a  mid-week  day  off work, you can then set the MODE to ONCE to keep the system ON during the day from the first programmed ON time till the last programmed OFF time. 
						

							


Your ST900A should have been set up to work correctly when it was installed. However, the following will show you how you can modify your settings to meet your particular lifestyle.
To  assist  you  with  programming  and  everyday  use  your  ST9400A  will  display  text messages at every stage to help you get the most out of your central heating and hot water system. The ST9400A uses LoT™ Technology to constantly update the display to give you feedback about what is required.
Step 1: Setting the Date & Time
Your  ST9400A  had  the  date  and  time  set  at  the  factory,  and  these  are  normally maintained by a backup battery in the event of power failures. If you wish to change the date or time, or if the LoT™ Display shows the message ‘SET DATE + TIME’ just follow the instructions below. Otherwise, go to Step 2.
a. Move the slider to the DAY/TIME position. The message ‘SET DATE + TIME’ will show briefly on the screen, followed by ‘SET THE DAY’, and the day of the month will now be flashing to indicate it can be changed.
b. To change the day of the month, press the   or  buttons until the correct day is shown.  Each press of the button will change the date by one day. As soon as a change has been made, the message ‘IS DAY OK?’ will be displayed. Once the  correct  day  is  reached,  press  the  green   button  to  confirm,  and  move  to the  next  step.  If  you  do  not  need  to  make  a  change,  just  press  the   button immediately and this will move you to the next step.
c.  The month digits will now be flashing and ‘SET THE MONTH’ will be displayed. To change the month, press the   or  buttons until the correct month is shown. The  message  ‘IS  MONTH  OK?’  will  be  displayed.  Press  the  green   button  to confirm the month is correct, and move to the next step.

d. The  year  digits  will  now  be  flashing  and  ‘SET  THE  YEAR’  will  be  displayed.  To change the year, press the   or  buttons until the correct year is shown. The message ‘IS YEAR OK?’ will be displayed. Press the green  button to confirm the year is correct. If you have made a change, and the date is a valid date, the message ‘DATE SAVED’ will show, and you can move to the next step. If the date you  set  was  not  valid,  for  example  31  September,  the  message  ‘INVALID’  will show and you will be returned to the start of the date setting operation.
e.  The time will now be flashing and the message ‘SET THE TIME’ will be displayed. To change the time, press the   or  buttons until the correct time is shown. Each press of the button will change the time by one minute. Holding the button down  for  more  than  a  few  seconds  will  change  the  time  slowly  at  first,  then quickly. The message ‘IS TIME OK?’ will be displayed. Press the green  button to confirm the time is correct.  If you have made a change, the message ‘TIME SAVED’ will show, followed quickly by ‘DATE + TIME COMPLETE’.
f.  Move the slider to the RUN position, to complete setting the date and time.
Note:  if  the  slider  is  moved  at  any  time  before  the  date  and  time  have  been  set correctly,  the  message  ‘DATE  UNCHANGED’  will  be  displayed  briefly,  and  your changes will not be saved.
Step 2: Running a Built-in Programme
With  the  date  and  time  correct,  your  ST9400A  Programmer  will  now  be  operating to  the  built-in  programmes.  These  have  been  designed  to  provide  heating  and  hot water at typical times throughout the day, but if you want to customise the settings, please see the next section ‘PROGRAMMING YOUR ST900A’ (page 6). 
						

							


PROGRAMMING YOUR ST900A
The Built-in Programmes
The  built-in  programmes  give  you  a  starting  point  that  you  can  personalise  to  your own  requirements.  Your  Installer  should  have  selected  one  and  ticked  the  box alongside it. If there is no tick, the product normally leaves the factory with Profile A installed, but it is a simple matter to select one of the other profiles (see Changing the Installer Parameters, page 12).

PROGRAMMING YOUR ST900A
Reviewing the Programme Times
To review your hot water programme, move the slider to the HOT WATER position. 
To review your heating programme, move the slider to the HEATING position.
To  review  the  programme  times,  press  the   button  repeatedly.  The  appropriate ON  and OFF  markers  will  be  displayed  to  show  you  which  time  is  being  reviewed. Any  of  these  times  can  be  adjusted  by  using  the    or   buttons,  and  then confirmed  using  the   button.  Remember  to  return  the  slider  to  the RUN  position after reviewing is complete.
Modifying the Hot Water Programme
The  hot  water  programme  has  two  pairs  of ON/OFF  switching  times  per  day.  Each time  can  be  set  between  3.00  am  and  2.50  am  (on  the  next  day)  to  allow  you  to programme the hot water to stay on past midnight, if required. 
a. Move the slider to the HOT WATER position. ‘SET HOT WATER’ will show briefly to verify this action.
b. ‘SET ON-TIME 1’ will then be displayed and the time setting for the first ON 1 time will now be flashing to indicate it can be changed. If you do not wish to change the time, press the green  button and move to the next step. If you do wish to make a change, use the   or  buttons to change the first ON 1 time. Each press of the button will change the time by 10 minutes. As soon as the time has been changed, the message ‘ON-TIME 1 OK?’ will be displayed. Press the green  button to confirm the time is correct and move to the next step. ‘SAVED’ will be displayed for a moment to confirm that any change has been saved to memory.

Note:  When  pressing  the   button  the  next ON  or OFF  marker  may  start  to  flash. This indicates you have tried to set a time equal to one of the next programme times already  in  the  memory.    Similarly,  when  pressing  the   button  the  previous ON  or OFF  marker  may  start  to  flash.  This  indicates  you  have  tried  to  set  a  time  equal  to one  of  the  previous  programme  times.  If  this  happens  the  ST9400A  simply  moves both times together as long as you continue to press the   or  buttons.  Follow the procedure in ‘Reviewing the Programme Times’ (page 7) to check and adjust these times as necessary.
c. ‘SET OFF-TIME 1’ will be displayed and the first OFF 1 time will now be flashing. If you do not wish to change the time, press the green  button and move to the next step.  Otherwise,  use  the    or   buttons  to  change  the  time.  Press  the  green  button to confirm the time is correct and move to the next step. ‘SAVED’ will be displayed for a moment to confirm that any change has been saved to memory.
d. The remaining ON and OFF times (ON 2, OFF 2) can be set by using the   or   buttons  to  change  the  time,  and  the  green   button  to  confirm  the  time is correct and move to the next step. If you do not wish to change the time, just press  the  green   button  to  move  directly  to  the  next ON/OFF  time  without making any changes.
e.  After setting or reviewing the last off time, OFF 2, the message ‘COMPLETE’ will be displayed to indicate the times have been set.
Exiting HOT WATER Programming Mode:
To exit HOT WATER programming mode, move the slider to the RUN position. This can be done at any time during the programming process, and any changes made and confirmed with the  button will have been saved.
Note: If the unit is left in HOT WATER Programming mode for more than 10 minutes without the  slider  being  moved  or  any  buttons  pressed,  the  message  ‘MOVE  SLIDER’  will  be displayed.  Press a button to finish programming, or move the slider to the RUN position.

OPERATING YOUR ST900A
Choosing the Operating Mode (for Heating and/or Hot Water)
The operating mode may only be changed when the slider is set to the RUN position.
A  green INDICATOR  LAMP  shows  when  the  heating  or  hot water is switched ON.
Two MODE buttons are provided to select the Operating Mode and therefore how the heating and hot water are controlled.
Heating has four possible Operating Modes; these are OFF, AUTO, ONCE, CONT.  Pressing the heating MODE button scrolls round these modes in sequence, and the display indicates which mode is currently active.
• OFF mode The heating will remain OFF.
• AUTO (Automatic) mode The heating will be switched ON and OFF according to the heating programme.
• ONCE mode The heating will come ON at the first programmed ON time, and go OFF at the last programmed OFF time.
• CONT (Continuous) mode The heating will remain ON continuously.
The  hot  water MODE  button  operates  in  the  same  way  as  described  above  for  the heating MODE button.
