GENERAL

Carrier’s Aquazone 7-day, commercial, programmable thermostats are wall-mounted, low-voltage thermostats which maintain room temperature by controlling the operation of an HVAC (heating, cooling and ventilation) system. Separate heating and cooling set points and auto-changeover capability allow occupied and unoccupied programming schedules for energy savings.

All thermostats allow up to 3 occupied and one unoccupied time/temperature setting to be programmed per 24-hour period. Each thermostat stores programs for 7 independent days. Batteries are not required. During power interruption the i nte rnal NEVERLOST™ memory stores programs for an unlimited time.

IMPORTANT: The thermostat has a configurable security level. If certain functions are not available (changing set points, changing programming schedules), the thermostat security level may be configured to exclude those functions. Call the in sta ller t o rec onfig ure the se curi ty l evel .

A light sensor is provided on the thermostat for light activation. When the sensor detects light (the space is occupied), the thermostat will enter Occupied 1 mode. If the room is dark, the thermostat will follow its programmed schedule.

Programming Thermostat Schedules —

Fig. 5 — Setting Occupied 1 Set Points

Before programming the thermostat, plan the thermostat daily schedule. The schedule is divided into 7 days (Monday through Sunday). Each day can have 2 (Occupied 1, Unoccupied), 3 (Occupied 1, Occupied 2, Unoccupied), or 4 (Occupied 1, Occupied 2, Occupied 3, Unoccupied) time periods. Each occupied time period has a start time, stop time, heating set point and a cooling set point. The unoccupied time period has a heating set point and a cooling set point. The unoccupied time period is active whenever an occupied time period is not active. Fill in T able 1 below as an aid to programming the daily schedules.

NOTE: When the sensor detects light (t he space is occupied), the thermostat will enter Occupied 1 mode. If the room is dark, the thermostat will follow its programmed schedule. The Occupied 1 schedule should be turned OFF to keep the thermostat from entering Occupied 1 while the room is unoccupied. If the Occupied 1 schedule is turned ON, the thermostat will enter Occupied 1 per the schedule regardless of light activation. The Occupied 1 set points are used as the heating and cooling set points during light activation. The Unoccupied set points should be used as non-work hour set points (before 8:00 AM and after 5:00 PM) when using light activation. For times when the building is unoccupied during work hours (Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM), the Occupied 2 schedule should be turned ON, and can be used for moderate energy savings with set points of 80 F for cooling and 65 F for heating.

PROGRAMMING MODE — To program the daily schedules, perform the following procedure:

1. Enter Programming mode by pressing the Program button. The Occupied 1 annunciator will appear on the thermostat display. See Fig. 5. Use the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW buttons to set the maximum number of Occupied periods available. The thermostat can be se t to 1, 2, or 3. After the number of Occupied periods has been selected, press the Mode button.

2. The cooling set point for Occupied 1 will be displayed. Use the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW buttons to raise or lower the cooling set point until the desired temperature is shown. The range of acceptable values is 35 to
