    Hi Guys,
    I am trying to install a Climote that a mate of mind gave away and plan to start a subscription once installed. Basically all i wanted is something basic to control things remotely.

    But I naively thought it would be a simple change of wires from the old programmer to the Climote.

    The old programmer is a Sunvic 207 XLS and the wiring is like sosunvic.PNG

    and the climote is like so
    climote.PNG

    So the sunvic for HW off or CH off the live current switchs to the off terminals.

    But for the Climote it appears to switch off the live is cut from the on terminals.

    Will it work if i just switch wiring from 1 in the sunvic to 1 in the climote and 2 to 2 and so on?

    I would imagine you had no wires attached to 1,2 on the Sunvic.

    So now the old 4 terminal wire now goes to 3
    and old terminal 3 now goes to 4.

    1,2,L all looped together like the picture.

    I think is an Y plan system, which i believe a live has to go the off for the boiler to go off, it cant just be cut from the on.

    In a Y plan its the same, except you will have a wire for Hot Water "off" also

    Yup understand that but on the climote diagram on "On" it's looks to me there's a live current passing through He and on and off. Is that right?
