Optional Settings For Additional Thermostat Features

The Model 8555 thermostat is equipped with 8

circuit board. These switches are preset by the factory to typical home heating and cooling system

requirements. The installing contractor also reviewed the settings during installation to be sure the

thermostat will operate properly with your heating and cooling system.

The 

DIP

switches can however be changed to customize the thermostat’s operation to your particular

needs. This should only be done after consulting with your contractor.

The Model 8555 

DIP

switches control the following functions:

No. 1 – 4 or 2 Events Per Day. 

The switch is factory preset for 4 events per day; 

Morning

Day

Evening

,

and 

Night

. If it is more convenient you can select a 2-event day, 

Morning

and 

Night

, by moving this

switch to the 

ON

position.
