Programmable Thermostats
Installation, Start-Up, and Operating Instructions
NOTE:
Read the entire instruction manual before starting the
installation.
SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Read and follow manufacturer instructions carefully. Follow all
local electrical codes during installation. All wiring must conform
to local and national electrical codes. Improper wiring or installa-
tion may damage thermostat.
Recognize safety information. This is the safety-alert symbol
.
When you see this symbol on the equipment and in the instruction
manual, be alert to the potential for personal injury.
Understand the signal words DANGER, WARNING, and CAU-
TION. These words are used with the safety-alert symbol. DAN-
GER identifies the most serious hazards which will result in severe
personal injury or death. WARNING signifies a hazard which
could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used to
identify unsafe practices which would result in minor personal
injury or product and property damage.
INTRODUCTION
Carrier’s 7-day programmable thermostats are wall-mounted, low-
voltage thermostats which maintain room temperature by control-
ling the operation of a heating and air conditioning system. All of
the thermostats allow up to 4 time/temperature settings to be
programmed per 24 hr period and store programs for 7 indepen-
dent days. Batteries are not required; during a power interruption,
the internal memory stores programs for an unlimited time and the
clock continues to run for at least 72 hrs.
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
Power
Note that all TSTAT models have no batteries and are not

. They do require 24VAC (R and C terminals) to be
connected for proper operation. Thermostat will not operate
without these 2 connections.
Models
There are 3 different models. The last 2 letters of the part number
indicate the model. These 2 letters appear on the package and on
the circuit board. Be sure to have the proper thermostat for the
intended application. Models are:
AC - 1-stage cool, 1-stage heat - for AC systems only.
HP - 1-stage cool, 2-stage heat - for either HP or AC with 2-stage
heat.
2S - 2-stage cool, 2-stage heat - for 2-speed AC systems, or
2-stage cool, 3-stage heat - for 2-speed HP systems, or
1-stage cool, 4-stage heat - for 1-speed HP with special
3-stage electric heat.
Use each only for its intended purpose. (See Table 1.)
INSTALLATION
Step 1—Thermostat Location
Thermostat should be mounted:
•
Approximately 5 ft (1.5m) from floor.
•
Close to or in a frequently used room, preferably on an inside
partitioning wall.
•
On a section of wall without pipes or duct work.
Thermostat should NOT be mounted:
•
Close to a window, on an outside wall, or next to a door leading
to the outside.
•
Exposed to direct light and heat from a lamp, sun, fireplace, or
other temperature-radiating object which may cause a false
reading.
•
Close to or in direct airflow from supply registers and return-air
grilles.
•
In areas with poor air circulation, such as behind a door or in
an alcove.
Step 2—Set Dip Switches
There are 4 dip switches on the back of the circuit board which
must be set depending on the application. Check each switch for
correct position.
Switch A - Zoning Select (Active on all models)
Set switch A to ON for zoning, OFF for non-zoned installations.
Do not set switch A to ON in a non-zoning application, as
equipment will cycle excessively. When switch A is set to OFF,
equipment is limited to 4 cycles per hr and a 5-minute timeguard
protects the compressor.
Switch B - Setback Recovery (Active on all models)
Set switch B to ON for normal recovery, OFF for smart recovery.
Normal recovery adjusts the desired temperature at the pro-
grammed time. Smart recovery, which is active in heating mode
only, starts earlier and adjusts the desired temperature slowly so
that room temperature will arrive at the programmed temperature
at the programmed time.
Switch C - HP/AC Select (Active on HP and 2S models only)
Set switch C to ON for AC only, OFF for HP applications.
