damper remains closed. If the room temperature is

 

 

higher than the setpoint, the latter is then compared with

 

 

the outdoor temperature. If the fresh air temperature is

 

 

lower than the setpoint by more than 5°F(3°C), the

 

 

damper opens to allow cool air in.

 

 

 

4.3 Output 1

Output 1 is used to control a damper. It controls heating when the thermostat is in heat mode or cooling when the thermostat is in cool mode.

Set the following configuration parameters:

Default mode

Output type (TB7980 models only)

Minimum opening

Opening time (TB6980 models only)

4.3.1Default Mode / Output Type

The default mode (heat/cool) is used for the following:

The default mode is the thermostat’s mode at power-up.

The default mode is the active mode when the N.O. changeover contact is open (see section 5.5.2).

When configured as a contact (see section 4.5), Output 3 controls either heating or cooling depending on whether the default mode is set to heat or cool respectively.

The following table shows the different default modes, the different output types for Output 1, and their corresponding settings in the configuration menu.

4.3.2 Minimum Opening

The minimum damper opening can be set between 0 and 50 %.

Note: It is not recommended to set the minimum damper opening to 0 % (fully closed) when a duct heater is connected to Output 2 or 3.

4.3.3 Opening time (TB6980 models only)

The damper opening time can be set between 80 and 160 seconds.

4.4 Output 2 (models TB6980B and TB7980B)

Output 2 controls heating only, regardless of the thermostat’s mode. When the thermostat is in heat mode, Output 2 is activated as soon as Output 1 reaches its full capacity. When the thermostat is in cool mode, Output 2 is activated when the measured temperature drops below the setpoint.

The following table shows the output types for Output 2 and their corresponding settings in the configuration menu.
