Hi All,
Just upgrading the 4-wire baseboard thermostats in the house to these digit al 2-wire ones. I bought one to try and it is working well. It's 240vac int o 2 x 1500w baseboard heaters in series. I like it and will replace some of the others in the house.
But, it has no on/off switch which means before going to bed I need to hold the "Down" button while is clunks down to 40F. With four more in the house I will have to start half an hour before bedtime. OK, kidding a little the re.
Can anyone help with a schematic and then directions where to cut and I wil l hack at the circuit board traces and solder the leads for a switch?
I'd like the switch to safely disable the TRIAC control circuit without int erfering with the current settings. I don't care if it displays the temp wh en it is off or not. That's the normal mode, but it doesn't matter if it is displayed or not as long as the settings remain, well, until the next powe r outage. {gasp}
Thanks
Dave
