Backup Control; Replacing A Thermostat; Replacing An Equipment Interface Module - Honeywell Home VisionPRO 8000 Manual

Backup Control

This section explains when backup control is used. For
example, if batteries in the wireless indoor sensors are
depleted.
If the Thermostat is Part of the
Temperature Average
1. The thermostat controls the system using the
remaining sensors that are part of the temperature
average.
2. If there are no remote indoor sensors remaining, the
thermostat controls the system using its internal
sensor.
3. If the internal thermostat sensor is not available and
a Return Air Sensor is connected, the Backup Control
in the EIM is used. The backup control maintains
55 °F in heat, 85 °F in cool and operates the fan con-
tinuously to sense and control temperature.
If the Thermostat is NOT Part of the
Temperature Average
1. The thermostat controls the system using the
remaining sensors that are part of the temperature
average.
2. If there are no remote indoor sensors remaining and
a Return Air Sensor is connected, the Backup Control
in the EIM is used. The backup control maintains
55 °F in heat, 85 °F in cool and operates the fan con-
tinuously to sense and control temperature.
