  • Page 16: Hardware Setup Options

    HARDWARE SETUP OPTIONS: On the thermostat’s circuit board, there is a row of DIP switches, labeled #1 through #8. The position of these switches will change how the thermostat operates, and also how information is conveyed to you on the LCD display screen.
  • Page 17 SWITCH #3 (PERIODS): [OFF/DOWN = 4, default] The thermostat uses four temperature program periods in both heating and cooling (MORN, DAY, EVE, and NITE). Each period has a separate start time and a set temperature. [ON/UP = 2] The thermostat operates in the same manner as above, however there are only two temperature program periods for heating and cooling (DAY and NITE).

  • Page 18: Complete The Install

    SWITCH #8 (BATTERY MONITOR): [OFF/DOWN = ON, default] This setting, regularly monitors the battery level, and shows “LOW BAT” on the screen if the batteries need to be replaced. Use this setting at all times when batteries are present in the thermostat. [ON/UP = OFF] This setting only applies if you are NOT physically using batteries in the thermostat, and are powering the thermostat entirely from the system (“C”...
  • Page 19 AUTO / ON, FAN MODE SWITCH: When this switch is in AUTO, the blower fan (if present in your system) will automatically cycle on and off by itself while heating or cooling is running. When in the ON position, the blower fan will run constantly with or without a demand for heating or cooling, even when the System Mode switch is in the OFF position.

  • Page 20: Operating Instructions

    NEXT BUTTON: This button is mostly used while setting items such as software options, and temperature program periods. When there are several items on the screen that can be changed, usually one of them is flashing indicating that it can be adjusted. Pressing the NEXT button will cycle through which item is flashing.
  • Page 21 primary heating source. This will not only prevent the heat pump from wasting energy if outdoor temperatures are too low to support efficient operation, but it could also prevent damage to the heat pump if outside temperatures are below the manufacturer’s recommendations. As every heat pump has different operating characteristics, you should refer to your heat pump literature to determine when to disable the heat pump and run in Emergency Heat mode.

  • Page 22: Temperature Programs

    STATIC NOTICE: This thermostat is protected against normal static electric discharges, however to minimize the risk of damaging the unit in extremely dry weather, please touch a grounded metal object before touching your thermostat. TEMPERATURE PROGRAMS: By default, this thermostat has 4 separate program periods for both Heat and Cool mode, they are: MORN, DAY, EVE, and NITE.

  • Page 23: Advanced Features

    ADVANCED FEATURES: TEMPERATURE SWING AND OFFSET SETTING: A thermostat works by turning your heating or cooling system on and off whenever the room temperature varies from the desired set-point temperature. The amount of this variation is called the swing. Generally your system should cycle on about 3 to 6 times per hour.

  • Page 25 TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION: The internal temperature sensor in this thermostat is accurately calibrated at the factory, and in most cases alterations to this setting should not be needed. The Temperature Calibration feature allows you to manually offset the measured temperature by as much as plus or minus 5°F (3°C) degrees from its original value. This feature can be useful to match or synchronize this thermostat to another one or more, if multiple thermostats are used in the same home.
