Sensor detection and fault detection
The FCP thermostat detects the remote temperature sensor and pipe temperature sensor during
the thermostat power-up and run-time. The pre-configuration profile defines whether the remote
and pipe sensors are required in the system or not.
If the remote temperature sensor is installed, then the remote temperature sensor reading is used
instead of the internal temperature sensor.
If the on-board sensor stops to function correctly, the sensor error flashes on the display. All
heating and cooling outputs go to off until the sensor value is back in normal working range.
If the remote sensor stops to function correctly or is removed, the remote sensor error flashes
on the display. All heating and cooling outputs go to off until the sensor value is back in working
range. The thermostat does not switch back to use the on-board sensor automatically. Check and
reinstall the remote sensor correctly in order to resume the thermostat to operate.
If the pipe sensor stops to function correctly or is removed, the pipe sensor error flashes on the
display. All heating and cooling outputs go to off until the sensor value is back in working range.
This applies to the 2-pipe FCU system only.
You can recover the remote sensor and pipe sensor from error state under the following
operations:
• Power cycle the thermostat
• After you enter and exit the installer setting menu
