 WHAT IS A PROGRAMMER?

General Description
Your Honeywell ST9400C provides timing control for both your central heating and
hot water systems, letting you set ON and OFF periods to suit your own lifestyle.

The ST9400C does not directly control the temperature but works together with other
temperature controls, such as room thermostats and cylinder thermostats, to control
your heating and hot water system in your home.

With 7-day programming and up to 3 on/off periods per day, every day can be set
differently, and heating and hot water can be set at different times from each other.

The following instructions explain how to programme and use the ST9400C to
provide the most home comfort at the least cost.

The way to use a Programmer

Think about the time periods when you are typically in the house and when you are
not, and also the times when you use a lot of hot water. These are the times you
should use as the basis for the programmes. It will be necessary to allow some
heat-up time for the heating system after periods when it has been off – this would
typically be 1 - 1½ hours, depending on your house and your preferences.

Other features are commonly available on the Programmer to enhance comfort and
convenience, for example, OVERRIDE, EXTRA HOUR, and MODE buttons.

A typical use of the OVERRIDE feature is when you return home unexpectedly for
the rest of the day and the heating is off. Just press the OVERRIDE button and the
heating will come on until the next programme time, at which point it will follow the
normal programme. The advantage here is that you do not have to remember to
switch off because the normal time programme does this for you.

A typical use of the EXTRA HOUR button would be if you returned to the house for
a short period when the heating and hot water were off. Pressing the appropriate
EXTRA HOUR button gives you 1, 2, or 3 hours of heating, exactly when you need
it. Another typical use is when the heating is already on and you want it to stay on a
little longer - just press EXTRA HOUR and, for that day only, an hour will be added
to the end of the time at which heating normally goes off.

The MODE buttons allow you to select how you want to operate heating and hot
water independently. The most obvious use is to switch heating OFF during the
summer months, but you may also use this feature if you take a mid-week day off
work, you can then set the MODE to ONCE to keep the system ON during the day
from the irst programmed ON time till the last programmed OFF time.

GETTING STARTED WITH YOUR ST9400C

Your ST9400C should have been set up to work correctly when it was installed.
However, the following will show you how you can modify your settings to meet
your particular lifestyle.
To assist you with programming and everyday use your ST9400C will display text
messages at every stage to help you get the most out of your central heating and hot
water system. The ST9400C uses LoT™ Technology to constantly update the display
to give you feedback about what is required.

Step 1: Setting the Date & Time

Your ST9400C had the date and time set at the factory, and these are normally
maintained by a backup battery in the event of power failures. If you wish to change
the date or time, or if the LoT™ Display shows the message ‘SET DATE + TIME’ just
follow the instructions below. Otherwise, go to Step 2.
a. Move the slider to the DAY/TIME position. The message ‘SET DATE + TIME’ will
show briely on the screen, followed by ‘SET THE DAY’, and the day of the month
will now be lashing to indicate it can be changed.

b. To change the day of the month, press the or buttons until the correct
day is shown. Each press of the button will change the date by one day. As soon
as a change has been made, the message ‘IS DAY OK?’ will be displayed. Once
the correct day is reached, press the green button to conirm, and move to
the next step. If you do not need to make a change, just press the button
immediately and this will move you to the next step.

c. The month digits will now be lashing and ‘SET THE MONTH’ will be displayed. To
change the month, press the or buttons until the correct month is shown.
The message ‘IS MONTH OK?’ will be displayed. Press the green button to
conirm the month is correct, and move to the next step.

 GETTING STARTED WITH YOUR ST9400C

d. The year digits will now be lashing and ‘SET THE YEAR’ will be displayed. To
change the year, press the or buttons until the correct year is shown. The
message ‘IS YEAR OK?’ will be displayed. Press the green button to conirm
the year is correct. If you have made a change, and the date is a valid date, the
message ‘DATE SAVED’ will show, and you can move to the next step. If the date
you set was not valid, for example 31 September, the message ‘INVALID’ will
show and you will be returned to the start of the date setting operation.

e. The time will now be lashing and the message ‘SET THE TIME’ will be displayed.
To change the time, press the or buttons until the correct time is shown.
Each press of the button will change the time by one minute. Holding the button
down for more than a few seconds will change the time slowly at irst, then
quickly. The message ‘IS TIME OK?’ will be displayed. Press the green button
to conirm the time is correct. If you have made a change, the message ‘TIME
SAVED’ will show, followed quickly by ‘DATE + TIME COMPLETE’.

f. Move the slider to the RUN position, to complete setting the date and time.

Note: if the slider is moved at any time before the date and time have been set
correctly, the message ‘DATE UNCHANGED’ will be displayed briely, and your
changes will not be saved.

Step 2: Running a Built-in Programme

With the date and time correct, your ST9400C Programmer will now be operating
to the built-in programmes. These have been designed to provide heating and hot
water at typical times throughout the day, but if you want to customise the settings,
please see the next section ‘PROGRAMMING YOUR ST9400C’ (page 6).

 PROGRAMMING YOUR ST9400C

The Built-in Programmes

The built-in programmes give you a starting point that you can personalise to your own
requirements. Your Installer should have selected one and ticked the box alongside it. If there
is no tick, the product normally leaves the factory with Proile A installed, but it is a simple
matter to select one of the other proiles (see Changing the Installer Parameters, page 12).

How do I set the time only, if the ST9400C clock is not

correct?
Your ST9400C contains a very accurate digital clock that is factory pre-set. Should
you ever need to change the time, just follow this procedure:
a. Move the slider to the DAY/TIME position.
b. Keep pressing the green button until the message ‘SET THE TIME’ is
displayed. To change the time, press the or buttons until the correct
time is shown. The message ‘IS TIME OK?’ will be displayed. Press the green
button to conirm the time is correct. If you have made a change, the message
‘TIME SAVED’ will show, followed quickly by ‘DATE + TIME COMPLETE’.
c. Move the slider to the RUN position, to complete changing the time.

What do I do when the clocks go back in October and forward

in March?
Your ST9400C is factory-set to adjust the clock automatically at the correct dates,
so you should never need to adjust the clock forward or backwards yourself. It is
possible to disable this particular feature, as described in the section ‘Changing the
Installer Parameters’ (page 12). You may also check the section ‘Configuration &
Service Data’ (page 18) to see how your Installer has conigured your product.

What should I do if I get ‘lost’ while programming the

ST9400C?
The LoT™ Display on ST9400C will provide you with help and tips to work through
the programming. Should you ever get ‘lost’, the simplest thing to do is to move the
slider to the RUN position, and then move it back to the appropriate programming
position where you got lost. At this point just follow the instructions again.

What happens if there is a power failure?

In the event of a mains power failure, the ST9400C display will go blank, the
indicator lamps will go out, and the control outputs will switch off. The real time will
be constantly maintained by means of the built-in battery backup, ready to power
back up as if nothing had happened when the mains power is restored. In addition,
all programmes and settings are stored in a special memory (called NV memory)
which requires no power to maintain information, and so will be retained indeinitely.
Should the correct time and date ever be lost, for whatever reason, the message ‘SET
DATE + TIME’ will be displayed whilst the slider is in the RUN position. In this case,
simply follow the procedure described under ‘Step 1: Setting the Date & Time’
(page 4). It should not be necessary to make any changes to your programmes.

 MINI-PROGRAMMER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

You need only refer to this section if:

• The Mini-Programmer box is ticked on the Contents page of this booklet, or

• The ST9400C Coniguration Data (page 18) indicates it is set as a Mini-

Programmer.

What is a Mini-Programmer?
In a poorly controlled gravity circulation hot water system, whenever the boiler
comes on to service the heating, there will inevitably be some circulation though the
hot water storage tank, which will then heat up.
So, whenever the HEATING is ON, the HOT WATER is also ON.
It is therefore NOT possible to have independent programmes for heating and hot
water, so it is only necessary to enter one time programme.
If you have this type of installation (gravity circulation hot water circuit WITHOUT a hot
water control valve), your Installer should have restricted the ST9400C Programmer
to be a Mini-Programmer.
This section describes how to use the product as a Mini-Programmer.

Modifying the Heating & Hot Water Programme

The heating & hot water programme has three pairs of ON/OFF switching times per
day. Each time can be set between 3.00 am and 2.50 am (on the next day) to allow
you to programme the heating & hot water to stay on past midnight, if required.
a. Move the slider to the HEATING position. ‘SET HEATING’ will show briely to
verify this action.

b. Now follow the same procedure to set the times as described in ‘Modifying the
Hot Water Programme’ (page 7) steps b to i.

Exiting Heating & Hot Water Programming Mode:

To exit HEATING Programming mode, move the slider to the RUN position. This can
be done at any time during the programming process, and any changes made and
conirmed with the button will have been saved.
Note: If the unit is left in HEATING Programming mode for more than 10 minutes
without the slider being moved or any buttons pressed, the message ‘MOVE SLIDER’
will be displayed. Press a button to inish programming, or move the slider to the
RUN position.

 MINI-PROGRAMMER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Disabling / Enabling Time Periods

To disable any of the time periods ON 1 to OFF 1, ON 2 to OFF 2, or ON 3 to OFF 3,
simply set the ON time and its paired OFF time to the same time, and the programme
will just ignore them.
To re-enable the time period, simply set the two ON and OFF times to be different.

Choosing the Operating Mode

In a Mini-Programmer, some Operating Modes are not possible. For example,
HEATING in AUTO mode and HOT WATER in OFF mode is not allowed. When
conigured, your ST9400C knows which combinations of Operating Mode are
possible, and only permits those combinations that are allowed.

Override and Extra Hour Functions

When you use the hot water OVERRIDE or EXTRA HOUR functions, they will
operate as normal. However, the heating OVERRIDE or EXTRA HOUR functions will
also bring on the hot water. This is a consequence of the type of system you have,
and is perfectly normal.

Other Functions
All other functions operate the in the same way as for the standard ST9400C.
