When the outdoor temperature drops below the cutoff, the Genesis Heat-Timer
®
will automatically begin controlling the heating
cycle. After the heating system is active, the heating system sensor will register when heat has reached throughout the building.
The combined effect of the outdoor and heating sensors is to provide an even, comfortable level of heat throughout the building.
CYCLE LENGTH
The duration of the Cycle-ON period (when the heat source is activated) depends on four factors:
•
Outdoor temperature
•
Outdoor start temperature
•
Heat Adjustment setting
•
Cycle length
When the outdoor temperature is above the Outdoor start, the Genesis Heat-Timer
®
will not call for heat. When the outdoor
temperature is below the Outdoor start, the length of the Cycle-ON segment is adjusted by the Day and Night Heat Adjustment
settings. “1” is the shortest heat duration, “16” is the longest duration.
