CALIBRATION: Place the CO

2

 sensor outdoors, press both knobs for 3 seconds, display screen reads 

CAL/400, if you need to change the calibration level, turn the left knob. Keep the sensor from direct 

sunlight and any breathing. Allow it 10 minutes to stabilize the PPM reading. The Screen will return

 & TEMP LOCK/UNLOCK SWITCH

LOCK: This setting will not allow the CO

2

 and Temp outlets to run simultaneously. The CO

2

 outlet 

will always be deactivated when the Cooling outlet is activated On. Lock setting is recommended 

for rooms applying CO

2

 that are also operating an exhaust fan for temperature control. This setting 

minimizes CO

2

 loss when the exhaust fan is operating. 

UNLOCK: The CO

2

 enrichment device and any cooling device that is plugged in are independently 

controlled.

TEMPERATURE SETTINGS

The unit offers both day and night temperature control. Select either the heating or cooling mode 

option.
DAY TEMP SETTING: There is a Day Cooling set point and a Day Heating set point.
1.  To set the Day Cooling, Click the DAY TEMP knob. “COOL” will be displayed. To change the 

setting, turn the DAY TEMP knob to select your desired temperature. Click again to accept the 

new setting.

2.  “HEAT” will then be displayed. Turn the DAY TEMP knob to select your desired setting, then click 

the knob again to save the new setting.

NIGHT TEMP SETTING: Night temps are set exactly the same way as described above for day 

temps, but using the NIGHT TEMP knob this time.
TEMP MIN/MAX RECALL: Press the DAY TEMP and NIGHT TEMP knobs simultaneously to recall the 

min/max temperature record.
TEMP UNIT: Press and hold the DAY TEMP and NIGHT TEMP knobs simultaneously knobs for 3 

seconds, then turn the DAY TEMP knob to select the desired temperature unit (°F or °C). Press both 

simultaneously again to confirm the setting.

HUMIDITY & TEMPERATURE (RH% & TEMP) LOCK/UNLOCK SWITCH

LOCK: This setting locks both the temperature and humidity outlets together making them operate 

simultaneously. Example: if the sensor detects a reading outside of the programmed Temperature 

setting the unit will activate both Temperature and Humidity outlets at the same time. Use this
