10.Important Information
• OWL Intuition heating and hot water controls are designed to intelligently help you save energy and money. Actual savings depend upon individual home and heating system characteristics, lifestyle / occupancy patterns and set up preferences.
• The heating Boost feature adds the Boost Temperature Increment to either the cur- rent room temperature or to the current / next Comfort Period target temperature, whichever is higher.
• In the unlikely event that the Room Sensor or Tank Sensor loses knowledge of the correct date and time, then the heating / hot water will continue to operate however it is likely to be out of step with the actual current day and time. This will continue until such a time as the date and time information can be downloaded from the OWL serv- ers again. This could occur if the Network OWL is not connected to the Internet after the batteries have been replaced. If this occurs, use the Comfort and Standby buttons to manually bring the heating on / off until the Internet connection is restored to the Network OWL.
• If the Room Sensor or Tank Sensor batteries are allowed to get too low, then the heating / hot water will no longer be able to switch on. This could be a risk for elderly and infirm householders. Please ensure batteries are replaced as soon as possible after the warning messages are given.
• In order to ensure long battery life, the Room Sensor and Tank Sensor only communi- cates over the radio link to the Network OWL once every time period as shown in the table below. This means that it can take a while for web dashboard or smart phone instigated commands, such as clicking on the Comfort icon, to take effect. This is nor- mal operation. Button presses on the actual Room Sensor or Tank Sensor will respond immediately.
Room Sensor / Tank Sensor Radio Update Rate
After the initial potentially slow response, the Room Sensor or Tank Sensor will remain “ready for action” for the following 2 minutes. Web dashboard commands during this period should take effect within 10 seconds.
