This thermostat is equipped with Energy Efficient Control (EEC) that continually monitors the performance of the HVAC system and uses Stage 2 (heat or cool) and Stage 3 (auxiliary heat) only when necessary. If it determines that Stage 1 is able to heat or cool at a rate of 5 degrees per hour or better, Stage 2 will not be used. If Stage 1 is unable to heat or cool at this rate, the thermostat will use Stage 2 as needed. Under these conditions, Stage 1 will run continuously and Stage 2 will cycle on and off as needed. In extremely cold conditions, the auxiliary heating will be used when Stage 1 and/or Stage 2 is not heating at a sufficient rate.

EEC: This item turns on/off the Energy Efficient Control. On single state conventional HVAC systems, EEC enables the PID control algorithm.

Cool Anticipator: This adjusts the tendency of the HVAC to run the cooling system to refresh and dehumidify the air before the temperature rises to the desired cool settings. The recommended setting for most forced air cooling systems is 4. A higher number will decrease the tendency to run the cooling system below the cooling setting. A higher setting of 5 or 6 may be desired in dry climates.

2nd Stage Differential: This determines how far from the setpoint the temperature has to be before the second stage turns on.

Auxiliary Heat Differential:

This determines how far from the setpoint the temperature has to be before the

auxiliary heat turns on. This is only available for heat pump systems.

Temperature Sensors

The Temperature Sensor settings are used to configure the internal temperature sensor and optional remote temperature sensors that are connected to the thermostat. Any temperature sensors that are set as the same type (i.e. indoor or outdoor) will display the average temperature reading among the sensors.

Internal Sensor: This will enable or disable the onboard temperature sensor for indoor use only. *Enabled

External Sensor 1: This will enable the external temperature sensor for indoor or outdoor use. All indoor and outdoor temperatures are averaged between all sensors of the same type. *Disabled

External Sensor 2: This will enable the expansion module temperature sensor for indoor or outdoor use. All indoor and outdoor temperatures are averaged between all sensors of the same type. *Disabled

External Sensor 3: This will enable the expansion module temperature sensor for indoor or outdoor use. All indoor and outdoor temperatures are averaged between all sensors of the same type. *Disabled
