Joining an infiNET EX Network Before a CHV-TSTATEX-FCU can be used on an infiNET EX network, it must first join an infiNET EX network by being acquired by an infiNET EX gateway (e.g., CEN-RFGW-EX).
5 seconds. Press MODE until the unacquire function is displayed (UA). Press on the CHV-TSTATEX-FCU to start the unacquire process. Refer to “Verifying Communication Status” on page 21 for a list of codes displayed once the process is completed. Press FAN on the thermostat to exit Setup mode.
Advanced Setup Setup Mode After the CHV-TSTATEX-FCU is installed, it is necessary to set it up for a particular heating/cooling system. Please note that some of the setup parameters listed below are not always shown since they are dependent upon other thermostat settings.
EX Thermostat (Fan Coil Unit) NOTE: While in Setup mode, a period of one minute with no button activity causes the CHV-TSTATEX-FCU to revert to standard operation, unless a function (such as an infiNET EX acquire) is executing.

EX Thermostat (Fan Coil Unit) Operation System Mode The MODE button on the CHV-TSTATEX-FCU cycles the unit through all available system modes in the following order: Off, Heat, Emergency Heat (for heat pump and dual-fuel systems), Cool and Auto (if enabled in Setup).
Both the heat and cool setpoints can be viewed simultaneously using a touch screen. NOTE: When using a Dual setpoint, the CHV-TSTATEX-FCU has a 20 minute change limiter to prevent system toggling. Single Setpoint Auto Mode (“AU” = “S” in Setup Mode) In single setpoint Auto mode, a single setpoint is used for regulation at all times, regardless of whether the system is heating or cooling.
