OPERATING YOUR THERMOSTAT AND REMOTE SENSOR

Remote Sensor Operation

PROGRAMMING YOUR THERMOSTAT

The sensor monitors the temperature and sends information to the thermostat. Updated information is sent to the thermo- stat when the temperature changes 3/16 degree or more from the last update.

Low Battery power: The sensor will display the word LO along with BATT icon to indicate a low battery power condition. The 2 "AAA" batteries must be replaced to ensure a proper sensor performance. For optimum performance, replace batteries once a year with new premium brand alkaline batteries such as Duracell® or Energizer®.

Increasing the sensor setpoint decreases the displayed remote temperature shown on the thermostat by 1°F per bar. This will lower the actual calculated room temperature by up to 4°F. Decreasing the sensor setpoint increases the displayed remote temperature and will raise the actual calculated room temperature. The table below shows how the adjustment on the sensor affects the displayed remote temperature on the thermostat and the calculated average temperature.

This section will help you plan your thermostat's program to meet your needs. For maximum comfort and efficiency, keep the following guidelines in mind when planning your program.

When heating (cooling) your building, program the temper- atures to be cooler (warmer) when the building is vacant or during periods of low activity.

During early morning hours, the need for cooling is usually minimal.

Planning Your Program

Look at the factory preprogrammed times and temperatures shown in the sample schedule. If this program will suit your needs, simply set the time and day and press the RUN button to begin running the factory preset program.

If you want to change the preprogrammed times and tem- peratures, follow these steps.

Determine the time periods and temperatures for your program. You must program four periods for each day. However, you may use the same heating and cooling temperatures for consecutive time periods. You can choose start times, heating temperatures, and cooling temperatures independently (for example, you may select 5:00 AM and 70° as the weekday 1st period heating start time and tempera- ture and also choose 7:00 AM and 76° as the weekday 1st period cooling start time and temperature).

Use the table to plan your program time periods and the temperatures you want during each period. Fill in the complete table to have a record of your programs.
