Wiring a humidistat controlled fan in a shed.

Hi, I am installing an Envirovent MV160 inline fan into my garden shed to solve a condensation problem and I want it controlled with a Manrose 1361 Humidistat. I do not need the run on timer feature on the fan. Supply will be through a separate MCB on the sheds mini consumer unit, exclusively for the fan, and I would like to be sure about my wiring. I can use a double pole isolator switch mounted in the shed to manually turn the fan on and off and as far as I can see, I do not need the switched live connection which I understand normally controlls the run-on feature. I would be grateful if someone could confirm if this is the best way to do this. Thank you.
 
Without seeing wiring diagram, normally Switched Live would come from the stat, switching the fan on/off as appropriate. The fan will always run when this is On.

Permanent Live would support run on, allowing the fan to choose to run even when Switched Live is Off.
