  • Page 9: About Thermostats

    About thermostats Thermostats are devices that measure the air temperature and humidity in the room where they are installed. Even if you have a Touch Panel Interface in a room instead of a standard thermostat panel, there will be a thermostat installed invisibly in the room to take temperature and humidity measurements.
  • Page 10 You can look at information and make adjustments to thermostats in three different ways:  By viewing the thermostat through a Touch Panel Interface.  By using the standard thermostat panel in a room.  By logging into the Climate Cŏntrol™ Network System using a computer on your home network. Whichever of the three methods you use, you can set the temperature in several ways: ...
  • Page 11: View The List Of Thermostats

    View the list of thermostats On the "home" screen, on the Thermostat List tab, you can view a list of all the thermostats in your home. To view the list of thermostats: 1. Click the button. The list of thermostats is displayed in alphanumeric order by thermostat description (name).
  • Page 12: Change The Room Temperature

    Change the room temperature You can use the thermostat to raise or lower the temperature in the room. When the thermostat is the primary, and you have equipment like furnaces and air conditioners installed, the Climate Cŏntrol™ Network System will run appropriate equipment to meet and keep the setpoint in that room.
  • Page 13: View Active Equipment

    View active equipment When you adjust the temperature of a thermostat, the system operates the available equipment to give you the desired temperature. On the Touch Panel Interface, you can see which pieces of equipment are currently active or inactive, as well as which setpoints and mode are in effect for each thermostat. To view equipment that is active right now: 4.
  • Page 14: View Installed Equipment

    View installed equipment When you adjust the temperature of a thermostat, the system adjusts the available equipment to give you the desired temperature. On the Touch Panel Interface, you can see which pieces of equipment are currently active for each thermostat. You can also see a list of all the equipment installed with your system.
  • Page 15: Change The Heat Or Cool Mode For All Thermostats

    Change the heat or cool mode for all thermostats Generally it is best to use Auto Mode to control the temperature for all the thermostats in the home. In Auto Mode, the system uses the thermostat schedules to efficiently control the temperature. However, if the home is too cool or too warm, you can select Heat Mode or Cool Mode to adjust the temperature.
  • Page 16: Change Thermostat Setpoints

    Change thermostat setpoints Thermostats provide heating and cooling based on Normal and Setback setpoints. Setpoints are set for both heat and cool modes and have Minimum and Maximum limits defined.  Normal setpoints are typically used to keep rooms at a comfortable temperature when you are in the home. ...
  • Page 17 To change the thermostat Minimum and Maximum setpoints: 1. Click the button. 2. Click a thermostat. 3. Click the Thermostat Setpoints button. 4. Click the Min/Max Setpoints tab. 5. Click the buttons to change the Minimum and Maximum setpoints.
  • Page 18: Make A Thermostat The Primary Thermostat For An Air Zone

  • Page 25: About Air Zones

    About air zones A Climate Cŏntrol™ Network System generally contains one or more air zones, based on the types of heating, cooling, ventilation, and other equipment installed in your home. For example, if your home uses forced air heating, all the rooms affected by the furnace are included in a single air zone.
  • Page 26: View The Thermostats In A Zone

    View the thermostats in a zone There are two ways to view thermostats in a zone. You can either view an air zone and see the list of attached thermostats, or view a thermostat and go to its zone directly. To see which thermostats are in an air zone: Click the button.
  • Page 27: Change The Heat Or Cool Mode

    Change the heat or cool mode This feature allows you to set the mode for all the thermostats in the air zone, or all the thermostats in your system regardless of which air zone they are in. Another option is to use Auto Mode to control the heating and cooling equipment. In Auto Mode, the system uses the thermostat setpoints and temperatures to determine whether the system should be in heat or cool mode.
  • Page 28: Use Fan And Ventilation Settings

    Use fan and ventilation settings The Climate Cŏntrol™ Network System uses a combination of recirculation fan and ventilation fan settings to keep the air fresh and maintain a consistent temperature throughout the zone. The recirculation fan moves air around within the zone, while the ventilation fan vents air out of the zone and draws in fresh air. Note: If you disable the vent, the ventilation fan settings are set to Off.
  • Page 29: Set Relative Humidity

    Set relative humidity You can set a preferred setpoint for relative humidity for all the rooms in an air zone. However, the system automatically sets an optimal range for inside relative humidity. If your preferred setpoint falls outside this optimal range on a given day, the system will choose the closest relative humidity percentage within the optimal range.
  • Page 30: Change A Zone Description

    Change a zone description You can change the description of each zone. Use upper and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols to enter a unique name. To change a description: 1. Click the button. 2. Click the Air Zones tab. 3.
  • Page 31: About Hot Water Tanks

    About hot water tanks Your system can include one or two hot water tanks. You can set the temperatures of each hot water tank individually.

  • Page 39: About Other Devices

    About other devices Depending on the equipment installed in your system, the Touch Panel Interface might control devices such as sprinklers and lights (functional devices) or sensors for other types of devices (notification devices). For functional devices, you can turn the device on or off, or run it according to a schedule. For example, if your system includes sprinklers, you might set up the schedule to run the sprinklers every other day, or according to local watering restrictions.
  • Page 40: Use A Schedule To Control Functional Devices

    Use a schedule to control functional devices For functional devices, you can turn the device on or off, or run it according to a schedule.

  • Page 44: About Schedules

    About schedules Schedules are regularly used to control the equipment installed in your home. One or more thermostats can share a schedule, but other equipment, such as hot water tanks and other devices are each attached exclusively to a particular schedule. By default, schedules use Setback setpoints to conserve energy.
  • Page 45: Set Up A Schedule

    Set up a schedule To set up a schedule to control a thermostat, hot water tank, or other devices, find the schedule and then add time blocks to define the times you want to use Normal setpoints. Normal setpoints keep rooms at a comfortable temperature.
