Heating Demand
The thermostat must be in heat mode in order to properly
control the heating equipment. When in heat mode, if the
actual temperature is lower than the temperature setpoint, a
heating demand is detected by the thermostat. The thermo-
stat will then activate the heating equipment to satisfy the de-
mand. Heating operation is indicated by a flame icon in the
SYSTEM box as shown in figure 6.

val.
