Digistat/glow worm?

I have a RF2 digistat wireless controller, and a glow worm boiler, the digistat is set on all four time to 7, yet the heating still comes on at different times but not for long. But why.

my programmes are fine, but either it heats up too much or does not start at all. In other words i think that the problem is with the thermometer (or thermostat). If the displaying numbers are the curent temprature, than it is displaying wrong temprature. To correct this problem i have to set the programe at high tempratures. My programmed tempraures for night time from 1030pm) = 22C, 1 (9:30am) = 0C to stop the heating, 2 (6:00pm) 17C and 3 (8:00pm)= 19C. Now only night tempraure works because they are the highest one. But again it is too hot. Is there a way that i could correct the sensor which tells what exactly is the temprature? Any solution?

Thankyou But I am well aware how to set the timing on it, but the point is if all four stages are set to 7 degrees it should not call for heat untill the temperature drops below this. but it does, as i asked, why. regards robbie

Because it is a THERMOSTAT, which changes the Set Temperature at diffrent times of day.

Go and sit down with the installation and user guide for your digistat and digest the contents, then have a go a programming it propely
i.e.
7-00 20'c 9-00 15'c 16-00 21'c 22-00 5'c
(Or whatever suits you)
some models also allow a diffrent schedule for each day of the week as well
