Maximum Program Runtime of Directly Communicating Loads
This option can only be set for program-controlled loads.
The maximum program operating time is the time that a program-controlled load requires for its longest program. The maximum program operating time defines the latest time at which a load must be switched on so that its longest program can be completed within the specified time limits.
| Maximum program operating time for a washing machine |
|---|---|
You have defined a time slot from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. for your washing machine; i.e., your washing machine's washing cycle must be completed by 6:00 p.m. The longest washing cycle of your washing machine lasts 3 hours. Therefore, enter at least 3 hours as the maximum program runtime when configuring the switching device. In this case, the washing machine will start at 3:00 p.m. at the latest so that the longest washing cycle can be completed. If the selected washing cycle is of shorter duration, the Sunny Home Manager still adheres to the maximum program runtime. | |
