TBZ500 THERMOSTAT AT A GLANCE

This thermostat is compatible with most HVAC systems, including the following:

• 24VAC systems Note: requires both the 24VAC R and C (“common”) wires unless battery powered.

• Standard gas/oil/electric heating systems

- 1 stage heating and cooling

- 2 stage heating and cooling

• Heat Pump systems:

- 1 stage heating and cooling

- 2 stage heating and cooling

- 2nd or 3rd stage Auxiliary heating (heat strips)

• Do NOT use for systems with line voltage controls (120/240VAC) The thermostat can either be powered by batteries or

24VAC.

Battery Powered Operation

The thermostat can be powered by four AA Alkaline batteries. The thermostat will operate for approximately two years on four AA Alkaline batteries depending on the frequency of user operations and backlight operation. Always use Alkaline batteries and replace all four at the same time with NEW batteries.

Z-Wave Operation when Battery Powered

Important Note: If the thermostat is installed on a Z-Wave network, while it is battery powered, it does not work as a Z-Wave repeater.

24VAC Powered Operation

Powering the thermostat with 24VAC power requires both the C wire (24VAC common wire - typically blue) and the R wire (24VAC hot wire - typically Red). If the C wire is not available, then batteries are required.

Note! If the thermostat is powered from 24VAC, do not install batteries!

Z-Wave Operation when 24VAC powered

If the thermostat is installe

d on a Z-Wave network while it is 24VAC powered, it

operates as an always-on Z-Wave repeater.

SETTING THE SYSTEM MODE

Press MODE button to change system mode

System Modes

• Off:

System is off. No heating or cooling will come on. If system was on, it will turn off immediately.

• Heat:

Only heating will occur.

• Cool:

Only cooling will occur.

• Auto:

Heating or cooling will come on according to the heating and cooling setpoints. The system will

automatically switch between heating and cooling modes as needed to maintain the setpoints.

• Special Heat Pump Mode:

Emergency Heat.

• Heat-E:

An additional system mode, “Heat-E” for Emergency Heat will be displayed if the HVAC System Type is set to Heat

Pump. If there is a compressor failure with the Heat Pump system, setting the mode to Emergency Heat will allow the supplemental Aux Heat to come on first whenever there is a call for heating. It also disables the compressor output to prevent further damage to the HVAC system.

Caution!

Emergency Heat should only be used for emergencies until the HVAC system can be repaired. Running the system in Emergency Heat mode is commonly the most expensive mode since only the electric heat strips are bei ng used instead of the more efficient heat pump compressor.

Setpoint Change

To change the setpoint, press the Up or Down arrow buttons. The screen will switch to the setpoint change screen (as above) and show the current setpoint of the current heating or cooling mode. Adjust setpoint temperature up or down with the arrow buttons.

Note! When in the Setpoint Change screen, pressing the MODE button will switch the setpoint being displayed between the Heat and Cool setpoints.

Setpoint Push:

The cooling setpoint cannot be set below the heating setpoint. The thermostat will “push” the heating setpoint lower if the cooling setpoint is set below the current heating setpoint. A 3 degree separation is maintained between the heating and cooling setpoints. The same is true for raising the heating setpoint above the cooling setpoint. The thermostat will “push” the cooling setpoint up to maintain the 3 degree separation.

Setpoint being changed

Press MODE button to change from the heat setpoint to the cool setpoint

Press “Done” (FAN button) to set the setpoint and exit back to the main thermostat screen or wait for the screen to automatically time out.

THERMOSTAT OPERATION

Minimum Run Time (MRT)

The thermostat has a Minimum Run Time (MRT) delay after the start of any heating or cooling call. This minimum run time assures even heating and cooling cycles. The MRT will keep the system on, even if it reaches the setpoint room temperature, or you change the setpoint to a temperature that would satisfy the call, until the MRT expires. Changing the Mode to OFF will cancel the MRT and the system will turn off immediately. The MRT can be adjusted in the Advanced Settings menu of the thermostat.

Note:

When MRT is active, the heating or cooling icon will be flashing.

Minimum Off Time (MOT)

The thermostat has a Minimum Off Time (MOT) delay after any heating or cooling cycle ends. This delay prevents rapid heating/ cooling cycles and also provides “short cycle protection” for the system compressor. This delay may be noticeable when you change a setpoint and it does not respond immediately due to the MOT delay timer preventing the system from restarting. The MOT delay time can be adjusted in the Advanced Settings menu of the thermostat but there is a minimum of a 5 minute delay to assure compressor protection.

Note:

When MOT is active, the thermostat Status Display shows “WAIT”.

Z-WAVE® OPERATION

Thermostat Battery Operation:

If the thermostat is installed in a Z-Wave network while powered by batteries, it will be enrolled as a Z-Wave FLiRs type device. This is a power saving mode that conserves the batteries by keeping the radio asleep most of the time. However, in this mode, the thermostat does not act as a repeater/router in the Z-Wave network.

Thermostat 24VAC Operation:

If the thermostat is installed in a Z-Wave network while powered by 24VAC, it will be enrolled as an always-listening device and can act as a router node in the Z-Wave network.

Caution!

Once installed in a Z-Wave network, if you change how the thermostat is powered (from batteries to 24VAC or vice

versa), you must remove and re-enroll the thermostat in the Z-Wave network for it to work correctly.

Association groups

The TBZ500 supports 3 groups and 5 associations per group. Group 1 Association Alerts are to notify an associated device of a thermostat generated change. Thermostat generated changes are those changes that originate at or by the thermostat. The general classifications of thermostat generated changes are:

• User interface changes – Setpoints, Mode, Fan Mode, Occupied Mode

• Operational changes – Operating State, Fan State (See Configuration parameter #24 for details)

• COMMAND_CLASS_CONFIGURATION changes – See the COMMAND_CLASS_CONFIGURATION table for additional unsolicited alerts

• Setpoint Push – When a setpoint is pushed to maintain the HC-Delta separation

• Battery Status when the battery reaches the predefined thresholds

Group 2 Association Alerts will send a BASIC_SET 0xFF when a Cool Call starts and a BASIC_SET 0x00 when the Cool Call ends Group 3 Association Alerts will send a BASIC_SET 0xFF when a Heat Call starts and a BASIC_SET 0x00 when the Heat Call ends
