NOTE

If the FAN button is pressed again or if no button is pressed for two minutes, the thermostat will exit the configuration mode and return to nor- mal operation. To re--enter the configuration mode, the FAN button must be pressed and held for 10 seconds again.

While in the configuration mode, the following options are available:

A. ANTICIPATOR -- Value Adjustment

This adjustment controls the sensitivity and cycle rate of the thermostst. Higher numbers decrease the sensitivity and slow the cycle rate. Lower numbers increase the sensitivity and increase the cycle rate. However, a limiting feature will not allow more than 4 equipment cycles per hour, regardless of setting. Values can range from 1 to 3. Factory default setting is 2. This default selection will provide optimum performance in nearly all installations. Try it first. Do not change settings unless there is evidence of need to do so. Unlike conventional anticipators, this setting is not determined by current draw. There is no need to measure, know, or compensate for current.

To Adjust:

a.Enter configuration mode (if not already there).

b.Use UP & DOWN buttons to display A.

c.Press MODE button once to display current value.

d.Use UP & DOWN buttons to move between values.

e.Press MODE buttonto return to A. UP & DOWN buttons now move between option choices A, d, oF or press FAN button to exit configuration mode.

c.Press MODE button once to display offset value.

d.Use UP & DOWN buttons to select a value between --5 and 5.

e.Press MODE buttonto return to oF. UP & DOWN buttons now move between option choices; or press FAN button to exit configuration mode.

e.Press MODE buttonto return to d. UP & DOWN buttons now move between option choices; or press FAN button to exit configuration mode.

oF. Room Temperature Offset Adjust Selection

The selected number is the number of degrees, plus or minus, which will be added to the actual temperature. The numbers can range between --5 and +5. Factory default is 0. This adjusted value will be used as actual temperature for both display and control action. The effect is that a positive number selection will make the room temperature lower, and vice versa. The thermostat is calibrated within an accuracy of plus or minus 2 degrees when shipped from the factory; this adjustment will provide the best accuracy when set to o.

To Select:

a.Enter configuration mode (if not already there).

b.Use UP & DOWN buttons to display oF .
