Selecting Program Controllability

  • This option is only adjustable for the load type Self-configured.

You must make this setting directly when adding the load and specify whether the load must run predefined programs or not:

Setting

Explanation

Yes

After the start, the load runs through a defined program.
Interrupting the load during the course of the program can affect the operation result and should therefore be avoided. (Examples: washing machine, dryer)

No

The load always runs when an electric current is present and always carries out the same function during operation.
Multiple switching on and off per day does not cause any problems. The load does not have to run permanently - as long as a minimum operation time per day is achieved, interruption of operation has no negative effect on the function being carried out. (Examples: pond pump, heating element, water heater)

Once the setting has been made, it cannot be changed. If you want to change the information, you must delete the load and add it again.

State of the Assigned Switching Device after Load Operation

This information is coupled with the program controllability and cannot be changed.

You see the following settings:

  • If the load is program-controlled: switched on

  • If the load is not program-controlled: switched off

Upon expiry of the set time period, the load remains in operation until the previously set target value (e.g. target temperature for a heat pump) is reached. You must set the target value directly on the load (see manual for the load).
