10 Heating anticipator
This item adjusts the tendency of the thermostat to turn the heating unit off before the desired heat setting is reached. This is done to avoid overheating the air while the walls and furniture catch up. A setting of 0 will disable this feature.
0 | No anticipation |

10Maximum anticipation
The following settings are recommended:
Forced air systems: 4
Radiant systems: 6
A lower setting will decrease the tendency to turn off the heating system before the desired heat setting is reached. If the heating system response time is slower, as are most radiant heating systems, a higher number will help maintain an even space temperature.
The default setting is 4.
11 Cooling minimum on/off time (minutes)
This item is used to limit the on and off times of the cooling system. When the cooling system starts, it must remain on for the minimum time set by this item. When the cooling system turns off, it must remain off for a minimum time set by this item.
Setting | Cycles per hour (maximum) |
5 | 6 |
6 | 5 |
7 | 4 |
8 | 3.7 |
10 | 3 |
The recommended setting is 8 minutes. A higher setting may be appropriate for buildings with low heat loss/gain.
The default setting is 8.
12 Heating minimum on/off time (minutes)
This item is the same as the “Cooling minimum on/off time”, but for the heating system.
