4.1 Configuration
4.1.1 Profiles
Description
By default, 2 profiles are defined for certain outdoor conditions (temperature ranges). These profiles can be used for e.g. "Winter" and "Summer".
INFORMATION
If only 1 profile is needed: only configure the "Profile 1" and select "Manual" and "Profile 1" on the dashboard.
Profiles are linked to room type settings and can be selected manually or automatically (see "5.1.1 Dashboard overview" on page 13). This means that unit settings can differ according to the outdoor temperature.
When in "Auto" mode, the profile is automatically selected in function of the average temperature at the outdoor unit(s).
By default, 2 profiles are available: Profile 1 and Profile 2.
- Profile 1 settings are used if the outside temperature is higher than the value in the field located in between the 2 profiles.
- Profile 2 settings are used if the outside temperature is lower or equal than the value in the field located in between the 2 profiles.
These profiles apply to all room types and can be renamed by preference. E.g. below "Profile 1" is renamed to "Summer" and "Profile 2" to "Winter".
Profiles page
To go to the profiles page:
1 Choose "Configuration" from the main menu.
Result: The "Profiles" page appears:
INFORMATION
The PMS interface only uses temperatures in degrees Celsius.

INFORMATION
Profile and room type names are NOT automatically translated in case another language is selected at login.
4 Click the "Save" button to save the profiles or "Cancel" to return to the last saved profile settings.
To delete profiles
1 Click the icon next to a temperature to delete it.
Result: The selected temperature together with the bottom profile are removed.
4.1.2 Room types
Description
Different types of rooms (e.g. Bedroom, Meeting room, ...) can require different comfort settings. The use of room types allows to configure different settings for each type and in a further stage, apply them to rooms.
The default room type is "Bedroom" translated in the language that was selected during the initial setup of the software. This room type cannot be deleted, but it can be renamed.
It is recommended to start with editing the settings of the default room type before adding extra room types. This reduces the total configuration time as it is used as a base during the creation of a new room type.
Room types page
To go to the room type page:
1 Choose "Configuration" from the main menu.
Result: The "Profiles" page appears.
2 Choose "Room types" on the left of the screen.
