INTRODUCTION
Carrier’s Comfortt Series programmable thermostats are wall--mounted, low--voltage thermostats which maintain room temperature by controlling the operation of a heating and/or air conditioning system. Both heat pump and air conditioner models are available, each in programmable and non--programmable versions. A variety of features are provided including battery operation, separate heating and cooling setpoints, auto changeover, keypad lockout, backlighting, and built--in installer test. Programming features include 7--day (all days the same) and 5/2 (Mon--Fri and Sat--Sun) with 2 or 4 periods per day.
This Installation Instruction covers installation, configuration, and startup of all four versions of the Comfort Series line of thermostats. For operational details, consult the Owner’s Manual for the specific thermostat you are installing.
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
Models
There are four models in the Comfort Series: progra m mable and non--progra mm able, AC and HP. Model s TC--PAC and TC--NAC are designed for AC systems, controlling one stage of cooling and one stage of heating. They will not operate a heat pump. Models TC--PHP and TC--NHP are desi gned for HP systems, controlling one stage of cooling and two stages of heating. They can be converte d to AC operation. Select the appropri ate model for the i nt ended application.
5
Power
All Comfort Series models are dual powered. They can operate from batteries or 24VAC power. Operation from 24VAC is preferred if available. Battery operation is used when there are not enough wires to support 24VAC operation or when “armchair programming” is desired. For an AC system, 5 wires are needed for 24V AC operation and as few as 2 wires are sufficient for battery operation. For a HP system, 6 wires are needed for 24VAC operation and 5 wires are sufficient for battery operation. When battery operation is used, the C terminal does not need to be connected.
Provis ion is also made for separa te heati ng and cooling transformers via separable Rc and Rh termi nals which are c onnected via fa ctory--inst alled jumper wire.
INSTALLATION
Step 1 — Thermostat Location
S Approximately 5 ft (1.5m) from floor.
S Close to or in a frequently used room, preferably on an inside
partitioning wall.
S On a section of wall without pipes or duct work.
Thermostat should NOT be mounted
S Close to a window, on an outside wall, or next to a door leading to the
outside.
S Exposed to direct light or heat from the sun, a lamp, fireplace, or other
temperature--radiating objects which could cause a false reading.
S Close to or in direct airflow from supply registers and return--air
registers.
6
S In areas with poor air circulation, such as behind a door or in an
alcove.
Step 2 — Install Thermostat
ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
Before installing thermostat, turn off all power to equipment. There may be more than 1 power disconnect.
!
WARNING
1. Turn OFF all power to unit.
2. If an existing thermostat is being replaced:
a. Remove existing thermostat from wall.
b. Disconnect wires from existing thermostat, 1 at a time. Be careful not
to allow wires to fall back into the wall.
c. As each wire is disconnected, record wire color and terminal marking.
d. Discard or recycle old thermostat.
7
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in environmental damage.
Mercury is a hazardous waste. Federal regulations require that Mercury be disposed of properly.
CAUTION

When power is applied, all display icons are lit for 2 seconds to tes t the display. Followi ng this, the equipment type for which the thermos tat is configured is displ ayed for an additi ona l 2 se conds. It will be one of HP , AC, H, PH, PC or C (see explanation under Step 3, Option 01 below). A HP thermostat configure d to operate an AC (see Opt ion 1 below) will di splay AC. An AC therm ostat cannot display HP.
NOTE: If a common wire has not been connected, two AA batteries must be used to power the thermostat.
Step 3 — Set Thermostat Configuration
Configur ation options enable the inst aller to confi gure the thermostat for a part icular inst allation. Most are not pre sented to the homeow ner and theref ore must be properly
11
set by the installer. (Only those marked with an aste risk * below are avail able to the homeowne r.) Following is a list of the options available, an explanation of thei r funct ion, and their fact or y defaul t set tings. Not all numbers are used in the Comfort Series because not all options are available in this series -- and numbering is consi stent acr oss the TB, TC, and TP therm ostat line s .

To Enter the Configuration Mode:
Press and hold the FAN key for about 10 seconds until the display changes so that only two pairs of digits are showing. The left (programmable version) or the large upper (non--programmable version) display shows the configuration number and the right (programmable version) or small lower (non--programmable version) shows the configuration setting. Configuration number will be flashing which means it can be adjusted using the UP and DOWN keys. To cause the opposite pair to flash (to be adjustable), press the MODE key. Successive presses of the MODE key alternate between the configuration number and the configuration setting. To exit the configuration mode, press the FAN key. If no key is pressed for 3 minutes, the configuration mode will automatically exit, returning the thermostat to normal operation.
Configuration Options -- Selection:
Option 01 -- Equipment type
Selections: with HP thermostat: HP, AC, H, C, PH or PC
with AC thermostat: AC, H, C or PC
PC and PH are only available on non--programmable models. Meanings:
PC or PH selects PTAC units (Packaged Terminal Air Conditioners) which are used in motel rooms and other rented spaces. When this option is selected, the display shows only the setpoint, not the room temperature. Also the compressor timeguard is disabled, allowing the compressor to turn on immediately when a demand is established.
HP or PH controls 1 speed heat pump with 1 stage of aux heat. AC or PC controls 1 speed air conditioner with 1 stage of heat. H operates a heat only
system: furnace or fan coil only; no outdoor unit.
13
C operates a cool only
system: outdoor AC unit with an indoor fan coil; no strip
heater support. Note that this option allows a HP thermostat to be converted to control an AC
system.
Option 03 -- Fahrenheit/Centigrade
Selections:
F = Fahrenheit — Default is Fahrenheit. C = Centigrade.
Selects temperature measurement units.
Option 04 -- Fan (G) ON with W output
Selections:
OF = G not energized with W — This is default.
ON = G energized with W.
This selection determines whether the fan (G) is to be ON or OFF when the W (furnace or strip heat) is ON. Furnaces and fan coils which manage their own blowers do not require a separate G signal. Some auxiliary heaters require a separate G signal to operate the blower when W is applied.
Option 07 -- Zoning
Selections:
OF = non -- zoned system — This is default. ON = zoned system.
ON disables thermostat’s internal timers which are not needed with zoning system controls. Must be set to OF for non--zoned systems.
14
Option 10 -- Reversing valve
This selection is only available on heat pump systems. “O” terminal can be configured to be energized in either heating mode or in cooling mode, depending on heat pump operation. “O” is used to describe a heat pump system that energizes its reversing valve in cooling. “B” is used to describe a heat pump system that energized its reversing valve in heating.
H — Reversing v alve output (O/W2/B) is energized when HEAT mode is selected.
C — Reversing valve output (O/W2/B) is energized when COOL mode is selected.
Default is C.
Option 11 -- Minimum Deadband Between Heating And Cooling
Selections:
01 through 06 — Default is 02.
Sets the minimum allowable number of degrees between heating and cooling setpoints. One setpoint will “push” the other to maintain this difference.
Option 12 -- Smart Recovery (programmable model only)
Selections:
OF, 30, 60, 90 — Default is 90.
Smart Recovery OF means setpoints change immediately at setback recovery time. Thirty, 60, or 90 selects the number of minutes recovery starts before programmed recovery time. Recovery takes place smoothly during the selected recovery time, ending at the recovery time and temperature which is programmed. If the setpoint is changed during smart recovery, the smart recovery is cancelled and the new setpoint is effective immediately. Not available with non--programmable thermostats.
15
Option 13 -- Room Air Temperature Offset
Selections:
--5to5_ F—Defaultis0.
This option selects the number of degrees F to be added to the displayed temperature to calibrate or deliberately miscalibrate the measured room temperature.
Option 15 -- Auto Changeover Availability
Selections:
ON—Thisisdefault. OF
ON allows automatic changeover between heating and cooling as demand requires. OF maintains either heating or cooling mode only. Auto changeover is not available when PH, PC, H or C is selected under Option 1.
Option 16 -- Maximum Cycles Per Hour
Selections:
2, 4, or 6 — Default is 4.
The maximum cycle rate is limited by internal timers to the selected number of cycles per hour. Selection of a higher number causes faster cycling resulting in more constant room temperature.
Option 17 -- Minimum Time Between Equipment Stages
Selections:
10, 15, 20, 25 — Default is 15.
When there are two stages of heat available, this is the amount of time the first stage must operate before the second stage can turn on. With heat pumps, longer
16
times can reduce the amount of auxiliary heat used. Not available with AC thermostats.
Option 18 -- Backlight Configuration
Selections:
ON, OF — Default is OF.
When ON is selected and the thermostat is not battery operated a low level continuous display backlight is always on. With OF selected, the backlight is only on for a short time after the door is opened or a key is pressed. Continuous backlight is not available with battery operation.
Option 21 -- Keypad Lockout
Selections:
ON, OF — Default is OF.
With OF selected, the keypad cannot be locked. With ON selected the keypad will be locked and can be unlocked by simultaneously pressing the UP and DOWN keys for 5 seconds. Once unlocked, it will relock 2 minutes after the last keypad press. A “lock” icon is displayed while it is locked.
Option 24 -- Programmabl e/Non--Progr amm abl e (programmabl e m odel only)
Selections:
P, nP — Default is P.
This option is only available on programmable models, allowing programming to be disabled when nP is selected. The clock is displayed, but the program schedule, the HOLD and TEMPORARY HOLD functions are disabled.
Option 25 -- Number of Programmable Periods (programmable model only)
Selections:
2, 4 — Default is 4.
17
Selecting 2 allows 2 programming periods, P1 and P2, per day. Selecting 4 allows periods P1, P2 , P3, and P4. Not available with non--programmable thermostats.
Option 26 -- Minimum Cooling Setpoint
Selections:
52_ to 90_ — Default is 52_F.
Sets the lowest cooling setpoint available to the user.
Option 27 -- Maximum Heating Setpoint
Selections:
50_Fto88_F—Defaultis88_F.
Sets the highest heating setpoint available to the user.
Option 99 -- Reset to Factory Defaults
Selection:
See below — There is no default.
Use this capability to reset the thermostat to “out of the box” conditions. NOTE: All configuration settings, program settings, clock, and day which have
been manually entered will be lost!
When this option is selected, the configuration number (99), will appear on the left and 10 will appear on the right. To perform the reset, first use the MODE key to make the 10 flash. Then press and hold the DOWN key. The 10 will start counting down toward zero. If the DOWN key is kept pressed until the count reaches zero, the reset will be performed. If the DOWN key is released early, the number will return to 10 and the reset will not occur.
18
Step 4 — Check Thermostat Operation
The Comfort Series thermostats have a built--in installer test capability. Use it to check thermostat and equipment operation without delays or setpoint adjustments to force heating or cooling.
T o enter the Installer Test mode, use the same process as is used to enter Installer Configuration, only hold the FAN key longer. More specifically, press and hold the FAN for about 15 seconds until the display reads In on the left and St on the right for the programmable model, or InS in the smaller display for the non--programmable model. The MODE will be OFF. The MODE key (upper left) can now be used to select heat, cool, or emergency heat, if this is a HP thermostat. Selecting one of the available modes will immediately command the equipment to turn on in that mode. It will run for 3 minutes and then return the mode to off. With HP thermostats (having 2 stages of heating), the test will run for 3 minutes on each stage. If the thermostat is programmable, the clock display counts down from 180 seconds while each stage operates. Changing the mode to OFF will terminate any running test immediately.
During any test, the display icons will be displayed the same as for normal operation of that stage, as follows:
SELECTED MODE DISPLAY ICONS
off off
cool cool on
heat heat on, aux heat on
Em Heat aux heat on
To terminate the Installer Test mode press the DONE o r FAN button. If the thermostat is left in Installer Test mode, it will revert back to normal operation after 15 minutes.

Checklist
1. Run equipment through several heating and cooling cycles to ensure proper operation. To operate the thermostat in its normal operating mode, consult the Owner’s Manual.
2. If the equipment is to be left in operation, the setpoints, operating mode, and possibly program schedule must be properly selected.
3. Put away tools and instruments and clean up debris.
4. Review and leave Owner’s Guide with owner.
FEATURES AND ACCESSORIES
Home, Away, Sleep (programmable models only)
This feature provides three button selections which select from three predetermined pairs of heat and cool setpoints. In programmed versions, one of these three choices can be selected for any programmed period. To change these settings, a temperature is first selected and then the key pressed and held, similar to setting stations on a push--button radio. See Owner’s Manual for details.
Clock (programmable models only)
Without batteries the clock will continue to operate for 8 hours while power is removed. With batteries, the clock operates until the end of the battery life.
Batteries
Battery operation is available for installations where there is no common (C) wire available at the thermostat or where operation is to continue while the thermostat is removed from the wall, usually to facilitate remote (armchair) programming. For battery operation, install two alkaline AA batteries. The thermostat is designed to operate up to one year on a set of batteries. A battery indicator on the display warns when battery replacement is needed. See
20
Homeowners Guide for details. If batteries are installed and the thermostat is operated from 24VAC power, battery operation will occur only when 24VAC power is not present. The changeover between 24VAC power and battery power is automatic.
Display Lighting
The display has two levels of lighting, high level and low level. High level lighting comes on for 10 seconds when the door is opened and/or buttons are being pressed with 24VAC and with batteries. Low level lighting is only available if the thermostat is operated from 24VAC. It is not available with batteries. The low level can be selected (see Option 18) for continuous backlight.
Door Switch
When the door is opened, the display changes from its normal operation view. The large temperature display disappears so it will be available for other user functions. If the door is left open for 3 minutes, the display reverts to normal operation.
Mounting Options
For those installations requiring it, mounting hole locations for the programmable model are spaced to fit either a horizontal or vertical junction box. Mounting hole locations for the non--programmable are spaced to fit a horizontal junction box.
Defrost Operation
In a HP installation with the “O” selection of Option 10, the thermostat allows all defrost cycles to run to completion before turning off the compressor. It does this by sensing a 24VAC signal on the O line which it did not produce. This occurs while the HP is defrosting. As long as this O signal is present, the thermostat will keep the Y output on, even if it is satisfied, thus allowing the defrost cycle to
21
complete itself. If, through some wiring error or failure in the HP, the signal on the O line remains for longer than 15 minutes, the thermostat ignores it and allows Y to be turned off when it is satisfied.
If the B function is selected (using Option 10), the therm ostat cannot sense when a defrost occurs. As a result, it cannot guarantee that defrost cycles wil l run to completion. If the thermostat becomes satisfied during a defrost, it will turn off the compressor. The HP will then complete its defrost starting with the next cycle.
OPERATIONAL AND CONNECTION INFORMATION
Rc/Rh Connections
For installations having a separate 24VAC transformer for heating and cooling, the R connection can be separated into two connections, one for each transformer. This allows isolation between the two transformers to be preserved. To separate Rc from Rh, remove the factory supplied jumper between the Rc and Rh terminals. The Rh terminal powers the W and G outputs. The Rc terminal powers the Y and O outputs.
O/B Terminal -- On HP Thermostat Only
This terminal is normally connected to the reversing valve of the heat pump. It is called O when the valve is energized in cooling and B when it is energized in heating. Option 10 of the Configuration Options makes the O/B selection.
Timers
There are several timers which influence the thermostat’s operation:
If any of the timers listed below is preventing the equipment from turning on, the display icons which show the equipment is operating will be flashing to indicate a turn--on delay is present.
22
Five--Minute Compressor Timeguard
This timer prevents the compressor from starting unless it has been off for 5 minutes. It can be defeated for one cycle by simultaneously pressing the FAN and UP keys.
Minimum On Timer
Once the equipment has been turned on, it must remain on for 3 minutes. A change in mode or setpoint will cancel this timer.
Cycle Timer
Based on the selection of 2, 4, or 6 cycles per hour, this timer is set to 30, 15, or 10 minutes. This much time must elapse from the start of one cycle before another cycle can start. It serves to impose the cycles per hour limits. It can be defeated for one cycle by simultaneously pressing the FAN and UP keys.
Auto Changeover Timer
T o prevent unnecessary cycling between heating and cooling modes, this timer prevents a changeover to the opposite mode until a demand exists in the opposite mode for 20 minutes. It is defeated when setpoints are changed so that the opposite mode is immediately available if desired.
Error Codes
Two error messages indicate problems with the thermostat’s operation. If the room temperature sensor fails, the temperature display will show ----, two dashes. If there is an internal memory failure, the temperature display will show E4. The remedy for each of these is to replace the thermostat.
T able 1 shows the thermostat outputs for each available stage of heating or cooling. It may be useful in checkout or troubleshooting.
