Controller operation

This chapter describes the basic operation of the controller. It covers working with the display in general, controlling the home screen and graphs, explaining error messages, procedures after turning on the power, and finally, operating the simple thermostat mode.

The CLARE 5 controller is equipped with a square 4" (diagonal 10.16 cm, resolution 720 x 720 pixels) LCD display with a touch layer. This display covers almost the entire surface of the front side of the controller, so the controller has no buttons. All control is done by touching the currently displayed buttons or other graphic elements.

IMPORTANT: Non-functional touch

If the controller does not respond to touch or responds differently than expected, the calibration of the touch layer may have been lost. In this case, perform the calibration according to the article Touchpad calibration.
