Field Selectable Options via Hardware
DIP Switch (SW1)
– Test/Configuration Button (See SW1
Operation Table)
Test Mode
The control is placed in the test mode by holding the push button
switch SW1 for 2 - 5 seconds. In test mode most of the control
timings will be shortened by a factor of sixteen (16). LED3 (green)
will flash at 1 second on and 1 second off. Additionally, when
entering test mode LED1 (red) will flash the last lockout one
time. Test mode will automatically time out after 30 minutes. Test
mode can be exited by pressing and holding the SW1 button for
2 to 5 seconds or by cycling the power.
NOTE:
Test mode will
automatically be exited after 30 minutes.
Reset Configuration Mode
The control is placed in reset configuration mode by holding the
push button switch SW1 for 50 to 60 seconds. This will reset
all configuration settings and the EEPROM back to the factory
default settings. LED3 (green) will turn off when entering reset
configuration mode. Once LED3 (green) turns off, release SW1
and the control will reset.

FP2 Selection – On = 30°F; Off = N/A
SW2-3
RV – O/B - thermostat type. Heat pump thermostats
with “O” output in cooling or “B” output in Heating can be
selected. On = O; Off = B.
