Note: All heating sequences for air conditioners with

electric heat or heat pumps will automatically operate

in Alternating Lead/Lag/Lead/Lag sequence even if

controller is set to Non-Alternating for cooling with or

without economizers.

1st stage heating set point is the dead-band (db) below

the 1st stage cooling set point (the SP entered into the

program). The dead-band is adjustable from 2-40F, and

factory default is 27F.

2nd stage heating set point will operate at same inter

stage differential as set for cooling mode.
