The heating setpoint can be set from 40 to 95°F (4.5 to 35°C). The Heat On symbol is shown 
on the display when the thermostat is heating. Heating for freeze protection is provided 
whenever the air or floor temperature falls below 40°F (4.5°C), regardless of operating mode.

Regular Heating

W1 relay is on when the air temperature falls 1.5°F (1°C) below the Heat To setting. 
When the temperature reaches the Heat To setting, the relay turns off. 

Radiant Floor Heating

When Radiant Floor Heating is selected in the setup menu, the W1 relay operates using 
Pulse Width Modulation. This improves comfort for radiant systems with high mass floors. 
• 100% on time at Heat To setting -1.5°F 
• 50% on time at Heat To setting
• 0% on time at Heat To s 1.5°F

Room Sensor and Averaging

The thermostat can measure room temperature between -46 to 212°F (-43 to 100°C). 
The room temperature can be measured using a combination of the built-in and 
auxiliary sensors.
• Built-in room sensor only
• Built-in room sensor with auxiliary room sensor(s) (temperature is averaged)
• Auxiliary room sensor only

Floor Sensor for Radiant Floor Heating

The thermostat can measure floor temperature between -46 to 212°F (-43 to 100°C). 
If a floor sensor is connected, floor minimum and maximum settings are available. 
The floor heating setpoint is adjustable from 40 to 100°F (4.5 to 38.0°C).
For a combination of air and floor temperature control, leave the internal air sensor on 
in the setup menu. A floor minimum can be used to prevent a fast drop in temperature 
caused by receding solar exposure. This operation is recommended for areas heated 
by afternoon sun through large windows. When the sun sets, it can take a long time 
for the floors to get warm again. This may cause the room to cool off too much in the 
early evening. A floor minimum setting can help with this condition by maintaining a 
floor minimum temperature. Keep in mind the floor minimum temperature will override 
the air temperature, and if set too high, may overheat the room.
A floor maximum is recommended for rooms with hardwood floors. Setting floor 
minimum and maximum temperatures is a way of enhancing the comfort of the living 
space while protecting floor coverings.
If there are more than one floor temperature sensors, the temperature is averaged.

Warm Weather Shut Down (WWSD)

The heating system can automatically shut off based upon the outdoor temperature 
and the WWSD setting. This provides a convenient way to shut off radiant floor heating.
