SOLUTION
Check for 24 vac at the R terminal connection. Terminal R must be
connected for proper thermostat operation.
After the configured number of blower operating hours, the Service
Filter message will be displayed. This reminds the owner to replace
the filter. Reset the Service Filter feature to reset the blower op-
eration timer to 0 hours.
Select COOL mode. Decrease cooling set point to 10 degrees be-
low room temperature. Check for 24 vac at Y1 terminal. If present,
thermostat is operating correctly and problem is with wiring or equip-
ment. If 24 vac is not present, replace the thermostat. Check for
Compressor Cycle per Hour Limit. Cooling may be locked out.
Select HEAT mode. Increase heating set point to 10 degrees above
room temperature. Check for 24 vac at W1/O/B terminal. If present,
thermostat is operating correctly and problem is with wiring or equip-
ment. If 24 vac is not present, replace the thermostat.
There is not enough power available. Connect a 270 ohm, 10 watt
power resistor at the air-conditioning equipment between terminals
W and C (non-heat pump applications only).

Configure thermostat for heat pump operation (Table 2, Step 3).
The thermostat is configured for a heat pump. Configure the ther-

Commercial heat pumps require that Heat Pump Option on ther-
mostat is turned OFF.
