Mode of Operation
The thermostat is a programmable, manual or auto changeover, up to 3-stage heat (depending on your model) and up to
2-stage cool (depending on your model) thermostat. It functions with air conditioning, heat pumps, gas, oil, or electric heat
systems. Some thermostats are dual fuel compatible and an outdoor sensor can be used to monitor the ambient temperature. A
second remote sensor may be used to monitor the temperature in another area. The thermostat activates the heating appliance
when the room temperature is below the set heat temperature (by the differential temperature). When the call for heat has been
satisfied, the outputs are turned off. With heat pumps, the thermostat will not let the compressor come on for 4 minutes after it
turns off to protect your compressor.
When the room temperature is greater than the set cool temperature (by the differential temperature), the cooling device is
activated. When the call for cooling has been satisfied, the outputs are turned off. The thermostat will not let the compressor
come on for 4 minutes after it turns off to protect your compressor.
The program schedule can be overridden by changing the set temperature (
or
). This puts the thermostat into a
temporary hold. It will automatically return to the program schedule at the next program schedule transition. To remove the
temporary hold before the next schedule transition, press
icon twice.
The thermostat is also Wi-Fi compatible. After you connect your thermostat to your wireless network, you can monitor and
control your thermostat using the app (available for most devices) or a computer connected to the internet.
