with the ET Series thermostats to be installed in your
application.
NOTE: Some options are available only when the
HVAC unit controlled utilizes a ClimateMaster
CMC-2000 Series controller board.
Overview
The ClimateMaster ET Electronic thermostat is intended
for 24 Volt control of heat pumps and conventional
heating and cooling equipment. The thermostat can be
used with standard electromechanical units or with
ClimateMaster units equipped with CMC-2000 Series
Controllers.
Throughout this document, the term UNIT is used to mean
the HVAC unit controlled by the thermostat.
Specifications
The following are general operating parameters and
specifications for the ET Series Electronic Thermostat:
Operating Environment: 0° F (-17.7° C) to 140° F
(60° C) with 5% to 95% relative humidity,
non-condensing.
Storage Environment: 0° F (-17.7° C) to 140° F (60° C)
with 5% to 95% relative humidity, non-condensing.
Power Requirements: 24Volts AC, .14 amps, 50/60 HZ.
Physical Dimensions: The thermostat is 4.6" (11.7 cm)
wide by 4.6 (11.7 cm) high by 1.2" (3 cm) deep. It can be
mounted: on a vertical or horizontal 2"x4"junction box,
or directly on the wall surface.
Relay Ratings: The thermostat relay contacts are rated at
2 amps at 24 Volts. (Terminals are R, Y, W, G, low and
medium.) (Supplied only with "B" or "R" in position
13.)
Serial Port: The thermostat is equipped with a RS-485
standard serial port. Terminals are +N, - N, SHI.
Connections: A terminal strip is provided for Class II
low voltage.
OPERATION
Mode of Operation: The thermostat can be ordered
factory programmed with many operating options for
either Manual Changeover Operation (MCO) or
Automatic Changeover Operation (ACO).
It can also have features which only work when applied
to a unit equipped with a ClimateMaster CMC-2000
Series Controller Board. Each of the eight standard
factory programmed variations is shipped with a custom
faceplate for ease of use.
The following describes some of the more common
operations available on the ET Series Thermostat.
Starting Operation: The HVAC unit is turned on by
pressing the "POWER" button on the thermostat. When
pressed, an LED on the front panel is illuminated.
Thermostat Display: The thermostat can be field
selected to display temperature in either Fahrenheit (°F)
or Celsius (°C). It can also be factory programmed to
display as standard either ambient temperature or
setpoint temperature.
Standard setpoint temperature display may be temporarily masked for five (5) seconds by ambient temperature by pressing both the temperature "UP" and
"DOWN" buttons simultaneously. Standard ambient
temperature display may be temporarily masked for five
(5) seconds by setpoint temperature by pressing either
the temperature "UP" or the temperature "DOWN"
buttons. Display is switched back to standard display
automatically within two (2) seconds after the buttons are
released.
Setpoint temperature display is indicated by a setpoint
indicator dot on the temperature display.
Fan Operation: Fan "AUTO/ON" buttons select whether
the fan runs continuously or if it cycles with the
compressor. A red LED illuminates to indicate the option
selected. When no fan switches are provided on the
thermostat, the fan operation is as specified in the model
number decoder.
Multi-speed Fan Control: When the thermostat offers
multi-speed fan speed control for units with
electromechanical controls and three speed capability,
then high speed connects to G1, medium speed to
"MED" and low speed to "LOW".
See the CMC-2000 Series Installation, Operation and
Maintenance Manual for more information on fan speed
control.
MCO Operation: When the thermostat is factory
programmed with an MCO option it must be manually
set to either heating or cooling. MCO thermostats have a
"HEAT" and a "COOL" button. The MCO thermostat can
be equipped with or without fan switches or with either
automatic or two speed fan operation.
Page 3
Page 4
ACO Operation: When the thermostat is factory
programmed with an ACO option, it automatically changes
from heating to cooling. ACO thermostats have a
"POWER" button. The ACO thermostat can be equipped
with or without fan switches or with either automatic fan or
three speed fan operation.
Emergency Override: The ET Series Thermostat can be
ordered with a factory programmed emergency override
option. This option monitors room temperature as long as
power is available to the thermostat even when the power
button is turned "OFF".
This option may be ordered to maintain a room temperature
minimum of 50° F (10° C), a maximum room temperature
of 80° F (26.7° C) or both minimum and maximum limits.
Refer to the decoder on page 2 to determine if this option is
included with the installed thermostat.
CMC-2000 Series Operation: A thermostat intended to
operate with a unit equipped with a CMC-2000 Series
controller operates with the following unique sequences:
Multi-speed fan control is handled through the RS-485
interface between the thermostat and the controller.
When an override button is provided, the unit overrides
night setback for two (2) hours after being activated by
pushing the "OVERRIDE" button. In night setback mode,
the thermostat displays the factory programmed night
setback temperature, provided the thermostat normally
displays set-point temperature. When the override button is
pressed, setpoint returns to the normal day setting for two
(2) hours. (See Night Setback on page 8 for more
information.)
Two stage Operation is provided for use with units
equipped with CMC-2000 Series Controllers. Units must be
addressed as shown in the ClimateMaster CMC-2000 Series
Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual. The first
stage CMC-2000 Series controller must have dip switches
set to address one and the second stage controller must have
dip switches set to address two. Units must be powered
down before dip switch settings are changed. Note: The
CMC-2000 Series controller must have these dip switch
settings for two stage operation even when the thermostat is
not working with DDC communications.
When the CMC-2000 Series Controller board is equipped
with an optional fan control, the thermostat can be set at
"HI", MED" or "LOW" fan speeds. A red LED indicates
which speed is selected.
Fault Indicator: When the thermostat is used with units
equipped with a fault output, the LED light indicates that a
fault has occurred. This feature is standard on
ClimateMaster units with CMC-2000 Series Controllers
without an additional wire. It is an option on other
electromechanical equipment.
When this feature is an option, the fault wire is connected to
terminal "X" on the back of the thermostat. The fault light
operates on 24 VAC or 24 VDC.
