COnFIgurATIOn menu
The Steffes 2100 Series room heating units have a Configuration Menu which
allows the heaters to be customized to the power company and consumer’s
needs. This menu can be accessed on start-up and allows configuration settings
to be easily adjusted.
Accessing the Configuration Menu
Step 1 Energize the heater. Access to the Configuration Menu is allowed
for the first two (2) minutes of operation. If the heater has been
energized for over two (2) minutes, it must be powered off and
back on again.
Step 2 Press and release the M button until the faceplate displays “CONF”.
Step 3 Press the up arrow once and the faceplate will display “C000”. The display will flash between “C000”
and the corresponding configuration value.
Step 4 If necessary, edit the configuration by pressing and holding the M button while using the up or the down
arrow button to change the value.
Step 5 Once the value is correct, release the buttons and press the up arrow button to go to the next configuration
(C001, C002, etc.).
Step 6 Repeat steps 4 through 5 until all configuration settings have been adjusted to the desired values.
