TheapplicationA260isveryflexible.Thesearethebasicprinciples:
Heating(circuit1andcircuit2):
Typically,theflowtemperatureisadjustedaccordingtoyour
requirements.TheflowtemperaturesensorS3(circuit1)and
S4(circuit2)arethemostimportantsensors.Thedesiredflow
temperaturesatS3andS4arecalculatedindividuallyintheECL
controller,basedontheoutdoortemperature(S1).Thelowerthe
outdoortemperature,thehigherthedesiredflowtemperature.
Bymeansoftwoweekschedules,theheatingcircuitscanbe

InSavingmodetheheatingcanbereducedorswitchedofftotally.

Furthermore,thereturntemperaturelimitationcanbedependent
