Heatmiser neoStat-e V3 Heating Smart Thermostat User Manual

The Heatmiser neoStat-e V3 is a smart thermostat from the IMI Heatmiser neo Series. It is designed for electric heating control and can also operate as a time clock. In thermostat mode, it controls heating based on sensor readings, programmed comfort levels, and user settings. In time clock mode, it controls timed output schedules.

The official manual covers installation, mode selection, neoHub pairing, mesh network setup, temperature display, clock setup, comfort levels, temperature hold, keypad lock, frost protection, holiday mode, optional features, recalibration, error codes, floor probe settings, wiring diagrams, factory reset, and Heatmiser support details.

What Is a Programmable Room Thermostat?

A programmable room thermostat combines two functions:

FunctionPurpose
ProgrammerSets heating ON/OFF times based on the user’s schedule
Room thermostatMeasures temperature and switches heating on or off to reach the set temperature

The manual explains that setting the thermostat to a higher temperature does not heat the room faster. Heating speed depends on the design and size of the heating system. For better energy control, users should find the lowest comfortable temperature and let the thermostat follow the programmed schedule.

Pairing the neoHub

The neoHub connects the thermostat to the Heatmiser neoApp.

neoHub Pairing Steps

  1. Connect the neoHub to the router using the supplied Ethernet cable.
  2. Connect the power supply to the neoHub.
  3. Wait for the router to assign an IP address.
  4. The Link LED lights red when connected to the network.
  5. The Link LED turns green when connected to the Heatmiser cloud server.
  6. Connect the phone or tablet to the same Wi-Fi network as the router.
  7. Download the free Heatmiser neoApp from the Apple App Store or Google Play.
  8. Register or sign in to an account.
  9. Select Add Location.
  10. Press the connect button on the neoHub.
  11. Enter a location title, such as Home.

Pairing the neoStat-e V3 with neoHub

The manual recommends pairing the neoStat-e closest to the neoHub first.

Pairing Steps

  1. In the neoApp, select Add neoStat.
  2. Enter a preset or custom title.
  3. Press Next.
  4. On the neoStat-e, use Left/Right to select the power icon.
  5. Press and hold Tick.
  6. When SETUP appears, press Tick once.

  9. The mesh symbol flashes.
  10. Once paired, the mesh symbol stays permanently displayed.
  11. Press Add Another for more zones or Finish to complete setup.

What Is a Mesh Network?

Heatmiser neoStats use a mesh network. This lets compatible neoStats send and receive signals through other thermostats on the network until the signal reaches the neoHub.

This helps improve:

  • Communication range
  • Network stability
  • Smart control reliability

If the mesh symbol disappears, the thermostat has lost connection to the neoHub.

Approach Sensor

The neoStat-e uses proximity detection. When someone approaches the thermostat, the touch keys and backlight turn on automatically.

This makes it easier to adjust the temperature or timer in a dark room.
