GFCI Testing
The GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) in this control must be tested when
installation is finished and once each month.
1. Make sure the control shows “HEATING”. This may require temporarily
increasing the Setpoint temperature by pressing the button.
2. Press the
GFCI Test
button. “GFCI TRIP” should be indicated on the control.
There will also be a click sound, indicating power has been removed from the
floor heating system. If either of these indications fail, turn off the thermostat
and replace it. Do not continue to use.
3. To reset the GFCI TRIP, press the
on/off
button off and back on.
Adjusting the Temperature
Temporary Adjustment
1. Press or buttons to adjust the setpoint temperature and press
OK
to
accept. The display will show “HOLD SET TEMP UNTIL NEXT PERIOD”. This
setpoint will be held until the next Program Schedule time.
2. Pressing CANCEL will return the setpoint to the Program Schedule setting.

USAGE
The thermostat stores in memory the number of hours that it is heating.
This information may be useful in calculating the energy used by the
floor heating system. To reset these counters to zero, press CLEAR .

FLOOR/AIR
The thermostat is designed to operate best in Floor Sensing mode.
It is also possible to operate in Air Sensing mode with Floor Sensing
limitation. However, make sure to set a proper maximum Floor Limit
temperature (see Floor Limit above) to avoid overheating certain
floor coverings. Also note that internal heating in the thermostat
may affect the air sensor temperature reading.
FLOOR TEMP
AIR TEMP
Default:FLOOR
TEMP
FLOOR LIMIT
Minimum and maximum allowable setpoint temperatures of the floor
sensor. This is useful when the floor covering cannot exceed a certain
temperature (84°F is common for many wood or laminate products.
Consult your floor covering manufacturer for recommended limits).
It is also useful to limit adjustment by users. And it is useful if the
thermostat is being operated in Air Sensing mode (see FLOOR/AIR
above) but it is still desired to maintain a minimum floor temperature
regardless of the air temperature.

SMART START
Allows the thermostat to learn and automatically determine the
best time to begin heating, reaching the setpoint temperature at
the scheduled time. For example, the schedule may have a “WAKE”
start time of 6:00AM to be 82
ᵒ
F (27.8
ᵒ
C) and SmartStart may begin
pre-heating at 5:30AM to reach 82
ᵒ
F by 6:00AM. It will take a couple
days to learn.

Default: ON
FACTORY RESET
Use with caution! This will clear all programming and settings to
factory condition. This is useful if there are problems or errors which
cannot be corrected.
Hold a Setpoint Temperature
1. Press HOLD to hold the setpoint temperature instead of using the Program
Schedule.
2. Press or buttons to select an option and press
OK
to accept.
• Selecting “CONTINUOUS” will hold the temperature indefinitely.
• Selecting “FOR 01 DAYS” will hold for one day. The number of days can be
adjusted by pressing EDIT and then pressing or . Press
OK
to save.
3. Pressing CANCEL will return the setpoint to the Program Schedule setting.
Customizing the Program Schedule
1. Press PROGRAM.
2. Press or buttons to select the period and day to customize.
• Each day has 4 periods (WAKE, LEAVE, RETURN, SLEEP). A period is a certain
time that you wish the thermostat to begin heating at a certain setpoint
temperature.
EXAMPLE:
• To have the floor warm up to 80F at 5:30 AM in the morning, set the WAKE
period to these values.
• To save energy and allow my floor to cool to 74F after leaving at 7:15 AM, set
the LEAVE period to these values.
• To have the floor warm again to 80°F when returning home at 6:00 PM, set
the RETURN period to these values.
• Finally, to save energy overnight and cool the floor to 74°F after 10:00 PM,
set the SLEEP period accordingly.
• With the SmartStart feature turned on (see SmartStart below), the thermostat
will learn how long it takes the floor to reach 80°F and begin warming up a
little early, reaching approximately 80°F by the WAKE time 5:30 AM and again
at the RETURN time 6:00 PM. It will take a couple days to learn.
3. Press EDIT.
• To clear a period, useful if you want to only raise and lower the temperature
once in a day, press CLEAR. The thermostat will skip over this period in the
schedule. There must be two periods in the schedule.
4. Press or buttons to adjust the time and press
OK
to save.
5. Press or buttons to adjust the setpoint temperature and
OK
to save.
6. Press or buttons to select another period and day to customize, or
press
OK
to return to the home screen.
Changing Settings
1. Press SETUP.
2. Use the or buttons and the
OK
button to select the setting.
3. Use the or buttons to adjust the setting or move between Options.
4. Press
OK
to save the adjustment or press BACK to cancel the adjustment and
return to the home screen.
On/Off and Reset
Pressing
on/off
will turn the thermostat on or off. This also resets the thermostat
to clear an error or GFCI fault. See “GFCI Testing” and “Troubleshooting”.
Startup
When first powered on, the thermostat begins a “startup wizard” to help the
user through basic setup. For each setting, press or buttons to adjust
and press
OK
to accept.
1. Set the year, month, day, hour, and minutes.
2. Select the sensing method (Floor or Air). Recommended is “FLOOR TEMP”.
3. Select a Pre-Programmed Schedule. Recommended is “NORMAL DAY” where
it makes the floor warmer during morning and evening hours. Any of the
schedules can be customized later to fit your needs.
4. Press
OK
and the thermostat will begin working automatically.
Press a button if the display is dark. This
wakes the display backlight.
An Interactive Tutorial is also available
on the website to help.
Air Sensing mode default temperatures are 70°F and 62°F.
