RATE

2.Press the Prog key to advance to the HI rate. Use the arrow keys to change the variance for the HI rate.

3.Repeat step 2 for the CRIT (critical) rate.

(Typical settings for variance are: MID: 1, HI: 3, CRIT: 6)

OVERRIDING THE VARIATION SETTINGS

To override the real time pricing system, put the thermostat in Hold mode by pressing the Hold key. HOLD is displayed when the system is in Hold mode. The thermostat will run at the desired setpoint without adjusting for the rate. The thermostat will resume rate variation adjustments when the Hold mode is turned off.

SETTING TIME SCHEDULES

When programming a time for the Morning, Day, Evening, or Night period, the time will be increased or decreased in 15 minute increments. If the up arrow is pressed at 11:45 PM, or the down arrow is pressed at 12:00 AM, the time display will be blank, indicating that no scheduled temperature changes will be made for that period.

Your thermostat will follow a set of time scheduled programs on weekdays (Monday-Friday), on Saturday, and on Sunday. This will allow you to have different heating and cooling settings on Saturday and Sunday, than you normally would have for weekdays (Monday - Friday). When programming the time schedules, the weekday time schedule is programmed first. The Saturday time schedule is programmed second, and the Sunday time schedule is programmed last.
