Hello everyone,
I have a question about the above-mentioned device (used together with an air-to-water heat pump). I bought the building this year; it was built in 2011.
On the control system’s "home screen," there is a "bar display" (as Dimplex calls it) where you can adjust the heating curve using up/down arrows to make it warmer or cooler (1°C per step). Additionally, in the menu, there is an endpoint setting for the return temperature setpoint at -20°C (–4°F). From what I understand so far, the adjustment shifts the base point of the curve (shown in the attached image as "warmer" / "cooler"), but the endpoint should remain fixed (for example, explicitly set to 33°C (91°F) in the menu).
According to the installer’s manual (manufacturer documentation available on the website), however, it is always described as shifting the "entire heating curve in parallel." If that were the case — meaning the base point, the endpoint (-20°C / –4°F), and everything in between would shift — wouldn’t the explicitly set endpoint (33°C / 91°F, see attached image) also change?
That is not the case. Regardless of the changes made when shifting the heating curve, the endpoint value remains fixed at the set 33°C (91°F).
Or to put it much more simply: is there any way in the WPM to read the parameters currently used for control
- base point (e.g., 18°C (64°F) / 18°C (64°F))
- endpoint at -20°C (–4°F)
A fool and its tool... or something like that.
Thank you in advance to all willing to help!

Hello everyone,
can I find somewhere in the WPM ... Me again,
of course, I am also very grateful for any indirect tips!
Best regards,

Just try adjusting the parallel shift in small steps and check the calculated flow temperature.
