To set the Service Override:
The Model 8870 thermostats can be taken off the network temporarily for service issues by pressing the
Enter button on the thermostat. The status of the thermostat displayed in the Viewer changes to
"Network Override" in this situation, indicating that the thermostat is not responding to setpoint and mode
changes from the System Controller.
The System Controller will wait a period of time, and then force the thermostat back onto the network: this
time delay is the Service Override time.
1. On the Climate tab, select Options as shown above.
2. Click the Service Override drop down, and then select the desired time.
To set email settings for alerts:
The System Controller can be configured to send emails for alert conditions. The email will be sent to up
to three desired addresses, using the email server and the "From" address specified. See also To
specify and enable alerts below.
1. On the Climate tab, select the Aprilaire Model 8818 as above.
2. In the properties window at right, set the three email fields:
Email From: Set a valid email address. Some email servers will not forward mail if they cannot
validate the "From" address.
Email To: Set up to three desired email addresses to receive alerts.
Email Server: Set a valid email server to process the email.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Email alerts will only be sent when the System Controller is connected to a local
area network with an always-on Internet connection.
