Hi Andy,

Thanks for the response. I've finished decorating where the thermastat is going, so I wired it up this afternoon. All seems to have gone well, although I have noticed the following:

Evening (econo) Temperature is set to 17°c
Daytime (Comfort) Temperature is set to 20°c

When the thermostat knocks my heating on (and it does this correctly when the temperature drops below 20°c in the daytime setting), the rotating fan icon (cooling) is shown, and not the sun icon (heating) as I would have expected.

I've set all the internal dip switches to 1 (Temperature span 1°c, operation mode: heating) but this hasn't changed anything. Just wondering if you'd seen the same or had any ideas?

Would this happen if the wiring was the wrong way round? I'm *assuming* that the red wire was live (I've not connected the blue - neutral - and the yellow is conneted to NO as described.

Cheers,
Matt

My old connections were Live, Neutral and Heat. I connected the Live to the
COM terminal and Heat (for switching the heting on) to the NO connection.
The Neutral is not required for this type of thermostat and I have safely
terminated that wire.

All works great and it looks quiet cool too.
