Installation

Replacing Existing Thermostat

Most thermostats have three parts:

  • The cover, which may snap or hinge over the existing thermostat.
  • The electronics or body, which controls the existing system.
  • The sub-base, where the wires attach through the wall to the existing system.
  1. Always turn off power to the air conditioning and heating system prior to removing existing thermostat.
  2. Carefully remove the cover and electronics body from the old thermostat sub-base. Depending on the brand, these parts may pull off or need to be unscrewed. The old sub-base should remain wired and on the wall until steps 4 and 5.
  3. Label every old wire with the letter of the connection to which the wire is attached. Example letters are R, M, and Y etc. Depending on the brand of the old thermostat, your letters may be different.
  4. After labeling the old wires, loosen each connection and remove them from old sub-base. Secure the wires to prevent them from slipping into the hole in the wall.
  5. Remove the old sub-base from the wall, again being careful that the wires do not slip into the hole in the wall.
  6. Use the chart below to determine the new thermostat connections. As an example, if the old thermostat had a G or F connection, it goes to G on the new thermostat. Using a pencil and the chart below, circle the letter of each wire removed from the old thermostat.

Description of Options

  1. Selects the programming mode, either full 7 day or 5-2 day (weekday-weekend) programming or non-programmable.
  2. Enables or disables the ARM™ feature. During ARM™, room temperature is recovered gradually by turning on the heating or cooling before the end of the set back period. In a multi-stage configuration, room temperature is recovered gradually by using only the first stage heating or cooling until the last 20 minutes, to minimize the use of the 2nd stage heating or cooling. The set point temperature is changed to that of the upcoming comfort program temperature. ARM™ does not operate when the unit is in the temporary or permanent HOLD mode if the program is temporarily overridden or if emergency heat is selected for multi-stage heat pumps. If the ARM™ feature is disabled the thermostat will recover the set point temperature at the programmed set point time after the setback period ends.
  3. Selects single stage conventional (11C), 2 stage conventional (22C), single stage heat pump (11HP), or 2 stage heat pump (22HP). Any change made to the system type resets Installer Options 4, 5, 6, 9 and 10 to their default values dependent on system selected.
  4. Selects between 1st stage gas or electric heat. This Installer Option is not available with a heat pump system.
  5. Selects between 2nd stage gas or electric heat. This Installer Option is only available with a 2 stage heat pump system.
  6. For heat pump units with an electric auxiliary stage, both the first and second stages of heating will run when a call for second stage heat is made. For heat pump units with a fossil fuel auxiliary stage, the first stage will be locked out one minute after a second stage heat call, and the second stage will only be used.
  7. During the COOL mode of normal operation the fan will stay on for 60 seconds after the cooling system has satisfied the set point temperature and has turned off the compressor. This allows the system to provide higher efficiency during cooling operation.
  8. This thermostat includes an automatic compressor protection feature to avoid potential damage to the cooling system from short cycling. This thermostat automatically provides a delay after turning off the cooling system output to protect the compressor. This protection is also present in the heat mode of operation on single stage heat pump systems to protect the compressor. To disable this feature, set this option to SSPOF (off).
  9. This thermostat provides cold weather compressor protection by locking out the compressor stage (1st stage) of heating for a period of time after a power outage greater than 60 minutes. The lockout period is one hour less than the outage time, up to a maximum of 12 hours. During that period of time, the auxiliary heat stage will still be available to maintain the set point temperature. The compressor lockout can be disabled by setting this option to OFF.
  10. Select between turning the AC power interrupt warning off or on. During a power loss, the thermostat will display an outage warning. The system clock will continue to run, and all settings will be maintained until the outage period is over. This Installer Option is only available when thermostat is installed as a hardwired unit.
  11. Selects preferred temperature scale of either ºF or ºC.

Programming Overview For 7 Day Programming Mode

The 7 Day mode has separate Whole Week or Individual Day programming to allow you to change the daily set point times and temperatures to meet your individual schedule needs. The Whole Week programming can be used to set the main portion of your schedule, allowing you to later modify specific days of the week as required using the Individual Day programming capabilities.

Whole Week - allows you to program all seven days (M, TU, W, TH, F, SA, SU will show in display) at the same time. Then you can use individual day programming to fine tune your program for the few set point times or temperatures that you may wish to change.
Individual Days - allows you to program each day of the week individually to give you the greatest schedule flexibility. Often used to fine tune programming after initially programming.


When in Whole Week programming, the thermostat will check if all of the days of that group have the same program set point times and temperatures. If so, the set point time and temperature of the individual set point will be displayed. Otherwise, the individual set point time and temperature will be blanked. The user is allowed to change the daily programs for this set point time and temperature by pressing the or button. This will reset all the daily programs of the group for that specific individual set point time and temperature to the startup default for that set point.

Low Battery Detection

This thermostat requires two (2) new, properly installed "AA" Alkaline batteries to maintain the system clock and to provide proper thermostat power when 24 volt AC power fails or is not connected to the thermostat. When the batteries start to become too weak to provide proper operation, the thermostat will begin to display a low battery indicator.

Low Battery Detection

The low battery indicator is provided to inform the user when the batteries require immediate attention. We recommend replacing the batteries as soon as the low battery indicator appears. If the batteries are not replaced after the low battery indicator first appears, the thermostat may not provide proper heating or cooling system operation.

Even if the low battery indicator does not appear, the batteries should be replaced at least once a year, or if you plan on leaving the premises for over a month.

This thermostat can be powered from 24 volts AC or battery power. To determine if 24 volt AC power is connected to the thermostat, refer to the installation and wiring diagram section. If you cannot determine how this thermostat is powered, call a professional service technician to determine the type of installation and the proper operation of your system.

Locking the Keypad

To prevent accidental or undesired adjustment of the thermostat, the Keypad Lock feature disables the operation of the keypad except for the backlight key. In order to lock the keypad, press and hold Both and buttons together at the same time for 5 seconds. The LOCK segment in the display will flash once per second. When LOCK appears continuously, release both and buttons. The keypad is now locked.
To unlock the keypad, press and hold the and buttons together at the same time for 1 second. The LOCK segment will disappear and the keypad will become unlocked.

Adaptive Recovery Mode (ARM™)

In order to maximize comfort and energy efficiency, this thermostat is equipped with an Adaptive Recovery Mode (ARM™). This feature minimizes the amount of time required by heating or cooling system to reach the new set point after a setback period is completed, and assures your desired temperature is achieved at your set program times. This feature activates when recovering room temperature from setback programs to comfort programs, so it will only take place when the current (heating) program set point temperature is lower than the upcoming program set point temperature, or the current (cooling) program set point temperature is higher than the upcoming program set point temperature. During ARM™, room temperature is recovered gradually by turning on the heating or cooling before the end of the setback period. ARM™ does not operate when the unit is in the HOLD mode, if the program is temporarily overridden, or if it has been disabled in the Installer Settings.

Circulating Fan Mode – Fan Operation

AUTO: Fan operates as required by heating or cooling system.
: When heating or cooling is not active, fan will run as needed to ensure a 35% minimum run time.
ON: Fan will run at all times.

Auxiliary Heat Fossil Fuel Option

This thermostat is equipped with an auxiliary heat option which is set at installation for either an electric or fossil fuel (gas, oil or propane) auxiliary heat source. For heat pump units with an electric auxiliary stage, both the first and second stages of heating will run when a call for second stage heat is made. For heat pump units with a fossil fuel auxiliary stage, the first stage will be locked out one minute after a second stage heat call, and the second stage alone will be used.

Compressor Protection

This thermostat includes an automatic compressor protection feature to avoid potential damage to the cooling system from short cycling. This thermostat automatically provides a 5-minute delay after turning off the cooling system output to protect the compressor. This protection is also present in the heat mode of operation on heat pump systems to protect the compressor. This delay can be disabled in installer Option 8 (see section 3).

NOTE: The installer can reset the thermostat and bypass the compressor protection features by pressing the RESET button. This will erase all entered programs, current time of day, day of week and other user settings and should only be used during installation for testing purposes or to reset a thermostat to regain normal operation. This will return all thermostat settings to their default values. The user will have to reprogram all of the erased settings.

This thermostat provides one type of cold weather compressor protection by locking out the compressor stage (1st Stage) of heating for a period of time after a power outage greater than 60 minutes. The lockout period is one hour less than the outage time, up to a maximum of 12 hours. During that period of time, the auxiliary heat stage will still be available to maintain the set point temperature. The compressor lockout can be manually overridden at any time by moving the system switch to the OFF position momentarily, then back to the heat position. We still recommend using a separate outdoor thermostat for proper cold weather protection.

AC Power Interrupt Warning

During a power loss, the thermostat will display an outage warning. The system clock will continue to run, and all settings will be maintained until the outage period is over. (This feature needs to be enabled - see section 3)

Troubleshooting

Symptom: The word HEAT or COOL is flashing in the thermostat display.
Potential Solution: This indicates that the heating or cooling system is currently running. When these systems are not running, HEAT or COOL will not flash.

Symptom: HEAT or COOL is flashing but the system is not running.
Potential Solution: The thermostat is telling the heating or cooling system to run, but the system is not responding. You may need to call your local heating and air conditioning contractor.

Symptom: Thermostat does not turn on heating or cooling system.
Potential Solutions: Check to see if OFF is shown in display. This indicates that the system is turned off at the thermostat. Move the system selector switch to the HEAT or COOL position. After the compressor short cycle protection 5-minute period expires, the system should start within a minute's time.

Compressor protection features may be in effect due to compressor short cycle conditions, power outages or rolling blackouts. See Compressor Protection and AC Power Monitor for a full explanation of this feature.

Heat pump may be malfunctioning. Review the CHECK status indicator in the display. If the CHECK status indicator appears, call a professional service technician to confirm heat pump operation and provide necessary service. If heating is required you can slide the system switch to EMER setting which should start the Emergency Heat source to provide heating until the heat pump can be serviced.

Symptom: Thermostat turns on heating instead of cooling, or cooling instead of heating.
Potential Solution: Check thermostat wiring to make sure that the heating and cooling stages are connected to the correct terminals on the wiring terminal block (see section 11).

Symptom: Fan runs intermittently or when system is off.
Potential Solution: This is normal operation when the fan switch is in circulate mode.

Symptom: Thermostat will not follow program set points.
Potential Solutions: Check current time of day, day of week program settings. Make sure to verify AM/PM indicator is accurately displaying desired time settings. See section 6.

Check to see if OFF is shown in display. This indicates that the system is turned off at the thermostat. Move the system selector switch to the HEAT or COOL position. After the compressor short cycle protection 5-minute period expires, the system should start within several seconds.

Verify your program set point time entries. The heating and cooling programs utilize individual set point temperatures and set point times for the MORN, DAY, EVE and NIGHT set points. See section 6.

Thermostat program has been temporarily overridden and program indicator is flashing in the display. Wait till next set point and the temporary override will expire or change set point temperature to desired comfort level.

Potential Solution: Increase or decrease second (auxiliary) stage temperature differential setting as appropriate to provide the desired performance level. See section 5, Second Stage Differential.

Symptom: Low battery indicator is shown in thermostat display.
Potential Solution: Replace back-up batteries as soon as possible to maintain proper system operation. See section 6, Low Battery Detection and Replacement.

Symptom: OFF is shown in thermostat display and heating or cooling system will not start.
Potential Solution: This indicates that the system is turned off at the thermostat. Move the system selector switch to HEAT or COOL position. After the compressor short cycle protection 5-minute period expires, the system should start within several seconds.

Symptom: The room is too warm or too cold.
Potential Solution: Press the or button for 1 second to verify the set point. Raise or lower temperature as required. Ensure system switch is in HEAT or COOL position.

Symptom: Thermostat display is blank or reads -AC
Potential Solution: It is possible that AC power is not present at the thermostat and the batteries are drained. Check fuse, circuit breaker and thermostat wiring as appropriate to verify AC power is available. Replace batteries before reprogramming thermostat. (see section 9). If AC power is present, call a professional service technician to verify thermostat and system performance.

Symptom: Cannot program a set point temperature higher than 90˚ F (32˚ C).
Potential Solution: This is above the normal thermostat temperature setting range of 45˚ to 90˚ F (7˚ to 32˚ C).

Symptom: HI is shown in the thermostat display where the room temperature is normally displayed.
Potential Solutions: The temperature sensed by the thermostat is higher than the 99˚ F (37˚ C) upper limit of the thermostat's display range. The display will return to normal after the sensed temperature lowers within the 40˚ to 99˚ F (5˚ to 37˚ C) display range. Turn on the cooling system or use other methods to lower the temperature accordingly.
Troubleshooting Step 1

Symptom: LO is shown in the thermostat display where the room temperature is normally displayed.
Potential Solutions: The temperature sensed by the thermostat is lower than the 40˚ F (4˚ C) lower limit of the thermostat's display range. The display will return to normal after the sensed temperature rises within the 40˚ to 99˚ F (4˚ to 37˚ C) display range. Turn on the heating system to raise the temperature as needed for comfort within the room.
Troubleshooting Step 2

Symptom: Thermostat will not allow me to change the set point.
Potential Solution: The Keypad is locked. Press both the and key together at the same time for one second to unlock (see section 5).

Symptom: Fan continues to run all the time whether the system is on or off.
Potential Solutions: Check that the fan control switch is in the AUTO position. This will allow the fan to run only when the heating or cooling system is turned on and running.
Check thermostat wiring to make sure that the fan control wiring is connected to the correct terminals on the wiring terminal block (see section 11).

Symptom: Fan continues to run in cooling mode when the system has turned off.
Potential Solution: The Residual Cooling Fan Control Feature can allow up to a 90 second fan delay after cooling system shutdown for energy efficiency gains. The default setting is 60 seconds. This can be changed to disable this feature or shorten the time period if desired (see section 5).

Symptom: The thermostat does not allow me to program each day separately.
Potential Solution: Thermostat must be in 7 Day mode for separate day to day programming.

Symptom: System turns on prior to the end of a setback period.
Potential Solution: Thermostat is in Adaptive Recovery Mode (see section 6).

Symptom: NO EM HEAT SET is shown in the thermostat display.
Potential Solution: The thermostat is configured for a conventional system, and the system switch is in the EM HEAT position. The unit will still function in a conventional 2 stage HEAT mode, but the display will flash NO EM HEAT SET.
Move the system switch to the HEAT position.
