OPERATION
SET TEMP
This thermostat is “armchair programmable” You can make any program or setting changes with the thermostat body off or on the wall thermostat base.

OPERATION

The TX1500 alternately displays the current time and the room temperature. It also displays the day of

the week and the currently active program period that is controlling the temperature: MORN, DAY, EVE, or NIght.

The set point temperature will appear in the right side of the display. In the winter, set the system switch to HEAT to control your heating system. In the summer, set the switch to COOL to control your air conditioner. In spring and fall or when windows are open, you can set the system switch OFF.

TEMPERATURE SWING

A thermostat works by turning your heating or cooling system on and off whenever the room temperature varies a certain number of degrees from the set-point temperature. This variation is the “swing.”

PROGRAMMING THE TX1500

You can change any preset times and/or temperatures to suit your schedules for the weekday, Saturday and Sunday programs. Each period (Morning,

Day, Evening, and Night) is programmed for HEAT and for COOL. PROGRAM MO TU WE TH FR

Your system should cycle on about 3 to 6 times per hour. A smaller swing number increases the number of cycles, so room temperature is more constant. A larger swing number decreases the number of cycles, to save energy in most cases.

CHANGING FROM °F TO °C AND A 12HR CLOCK TO A 24HR CLOCK

WARNING: Making these changes will require you to reset the thermostat.

Located to the right of the gas electric switch are two black jumpers C/F and 24/12H.

To change to Celsius - remove jumper - C/F.

• To change to a 24HR clock - remove jumper- 24/12H.

5 MIN/2 MIN MINIMUM ON/OFF TIME

Your thermostat has an internal timer built in to protect your compressor. The timer forces a minimum on/off time of 5 minutes. You may change this minimum on/off time to 2 minutes. To accomplish this, remove the jumper labeled 5/2 MIN. You must press the small reset button on the face of the thermostat for the changes to take effect.
