I have recently had my programmer replaced to a Randal 715 with
seperate controls for CH and HW.

The good news is that you appear to have a fully pumped system capable of
fully independent control. You bad news is that also appear to have selected
a complete cretin to wire up your new programmer.

Any number of wiring faults could explain the behaviour you are seeing.
Connecting one end of the thermostat to permanent live, rather than the
programmer's call for heating is one of the likely ones. Don't worry about
the lack of connection to "Htg Off". This is rarely used. The lack of
connection to one of the thermostat's terminals may be an issue, however.

Hi Christian,

Sounds about right, I have since found out that when the room
thermostat was installed it blew the fuse for the programmer. The
original rmt was replaced and the system 'commissioned' by the
installed.

I disconnected everything and reset the programmer etc and fixed a new
rmt to the wall (a Honeywell direct replacement instead of some
generic thing). Anyway everything appears to be working ok, I have
checked the switched live to the rmt and it comes on only when the
programmer is expecting it, so all looks good, although I will be
monitoring the system for a while yet.
