Lux Products TX9100E warranty System Mode, Recovery, Delay

[1]SYSTEM MODE

This setting tells the thermostat about the type of heating and cooling equipment that it is controlling, so that the system is operated properly. This switch needs to be in the OFF (NON-HP) position if you have a furnace or conventional heating and air conditioning system. If you have a Heat Pump system, the switch needs to be in the ON (HP) position; this is applicable even if your heat pump system has an auxiliary heat stage that is a gas furnace.

[2]RECOVERY

The Early Recovery feature affects how the thermostat transitions from an energy saving setback temperature, to a comfort temperature. Normally the change in temperature only starts to occur at an upcoming period's start time.

With Early Recovery Disabled: If you have programmed your thermostat for 70°F at 5:00PM, the thermostat will only begin to heat your home back up when the time reaches 5:00PM. With Early Recovery Enabled: Using the same scenario as above, the thermostat will calculate the best time to turn on the heater, so that the temperature in your home reaches 70°F as close to 5:00PM as possible. During the time that the thermostat is performing a recovery, the words “IN RECOVERY” will flash in the temperature portion of the display screen. Switch position OFF is Recovery Disabled, and ON is Recovery Enabled.

[3]DELAY

This sets the minimum length of time that Heat or Cool must remain either On or Off, before it will automatically switch to the alternate On or Off state. This Delay prevents rapid cycling of your system and provides equipment protection for cooling units. Switch position OFF is a 5 minute delay, and ON is a 2 minute delay. 5 minutes is the default setting, and is good for most applications. If you feel that your system is trying to cycle more rapidly than every 5 minutes, you may try the 2 minute setting.
