******IGNORE THIS POST -- DIDN'T SEE TIMER MAKE, HAVE NOW, SO RE-POSTED********

No, not explained very well........

Your timer - L N 1 2 3 4

The T&E from the FCU will go to L and N on the timer. Nowhere else for now.

The 1 2 3 4 will be relay terminals - probably 1-2 and 3-4 - what brand time is it? Photo?

What you then want is a link probably from L to 1 - 2 then probably feeds the Switched L of either water or heating.
Then a link from L to 3 and 4 will feed the switched L of the other of water or heating.

Big BUT, though - don't take that as gospel, as I have no idea WHAT timer you have. All the neutrals should go to N, whatever, and nowhere else.

Dammitall! Just saw you DID say the timer make.

Forget all I just said.

Your wiring plate is

N L 1 2 3 4

So, all neutrals to N

L from FCU to L.

1 is HW OFF
2 is CH OFF
3 is HW ON
4 is CH ON

So, effectively, what you want (as a minimum) is

L from FCU to L on Timer
N from FCU to N on Timer
SL from HW to 3
SL from CH to 4

Any Neutrals should go to N
 
Ok on at the rear of the fcu there are two 2.5 twe cables. One cable goes into the wall and away and the other goes to the timer, but the red live goes to the l position but the black goes to number 3. Then another 2.5 cable comes back and its red goes to number 1 and the black goes to the neutral
