This thermostat is compatible with most HVAC systems, including the following:
• 24VAC systems (requires both the 24R and 24C [common] wires)
• 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 Auxilary heating (heat strips)
• Do NOT use for line voltage controls (120/240VAC)
STOP! Before removing your existing thermostat, be sure to label the wires with the terminal markings on the old
thermostat and record them below.

If you have a terminal marked “B” with a brown wire attached to it, that means you have a changeover (C/O) with heating
type heat pump system. Be sure to set the change over type in the Installer Settings menu to C/O Type: w/ Heat.
Otherwise, leave it set to w/ Cool.

HVAC System Setup
Overview
The thermostat requires that you setup the type and conguration of your HVAC system for proper operation. This is
done in the Thermostat Info screen Setup button or the Installer Settings screen on the thermostat. The Installer Settings is a hidden screen. To access it, press the main menu button and when the main menu screen appears, press
and hold the middle two buttons for 5 seconds.

Before operating the system, you must congure the thermostat for the correct HVAC system type. You will need to
know the following information to correctly congure the thermostat. The HVAC setup is in the Mechanical Settings
menu screen.
HVAC system type: What type HVAC system do you have? Standard or Heat pump
For Standard systems: Fan Type: Do you have Gas heat or Electric heat?
For Heat Pump systems: Change over valve (or reversing valve) type: Does your system change over with cooling
operation or with heating operation? Check your existing thermostat connects to help determine this. If the original
system had an orange wire connected to an “O” terminal, then you have a “changeover with cool” system. If you have a
brown wire connected to the “B” terminal, then you have a “change over with heat” system.

Delta Settings
The Delta T Setting is the delta, or difference between, the setpoint and current temp for determining when a heat or cool
call comes on. The “delta” is the number of degrees away from setpoint.
H/C Delta
Range: 3 - 15 degrees
Default: 3F (1C)
Sets the minimum separation between heating and
cooling setpoints. Attempts to lower the cooling
below the heating setpoint by this amount will
PUSH the heating setpoint down to maintain this
separation. Same for setting the heating setpoint
above the cooling setpoint, it will PUSH the cooling
setpoint up to maintain this separation.
Heating Delta Stage 1 ON
Range: 1 - 8 degrees
Default: 1
Sets the delta from setpoint that stage 1 heating
starts.
Heating Delta Stage 1 OFF
Range: 0 - 8 degrees
Default: 0
Sets the delta from setpoint that stage 1 heating
stops. Stage 1 turns off at setpoint + Delta Stage 1.
Heating Delta Stage 2 ON
Range: 1 - 8 degrees
Default: 2
Sets the delta from setpoint that stage 2 heating
starts.
Heating Delta Stage 3 ON
Range: 1 - 8 degrees
Default: 3
Sets the delta from setpoint that stage 3 heating
starts.
Heating Delta Stage 2 OFF
Range: 0 - 8 degrees
Default: 0
Sets the delta from setpoint that stage 2 heating
stops. Stage 2 turns off at setpoint + Delta Stage 2.
Heating Delta Stage 3 OFF
Range: 0 - 8 degrees
Default: 0
Sets the delta from setpoint that stage 3 heating
stops. Stage 3 turns off at setpoint + Delta Stage 3.

stops. Stage 2 turns off at setpoint -Delta Stage 2.
Minimum Run Time (MRT)
Sets the minimum run time before a heating/cooling cycle can turn off. Sets heating/cooling cycle time. Prevents rapid
cycling.

Fan Cycler
The fan cycler function cycles the HVAC system fan for an ON period followed by an Off period continuously. Used
to provide minimum air ventilation requirements. When the Fan ON time is set to a value greater than 0, an additional
“Cycler” FAN mode is present when pressing the FAN button.
Fan ON Time
Range: 0 - 120 minutes
Default: 0 (=OFF)

Note!
If you get heating when you

type to the opposite setting.
Setup
To set the HVAC system type, go to the
Thermostat Info screen and press Setup
button.
• Type - Set the HVAC System Type: set to
Heat Pump
• Fan Type - Automatically set for heat
pump systems. Ignore this setting.
• C/O type - Change Over (reversing) Valve
Type. Heat pumps change from heating to
cooling by reversing operation.You must
congure the thermostat’s changeover
valve setting to work correctly with your
HVAC system.
• Check your system information to be sure and note the color of original thermostat wire and the terminal it was
connected to. No matter what the old stat connection was (O or B), connect the wire to the thermostats W2/O
terminal. The setting of the C/O Type will set the correct system operation. For change over with cool systems
(Orange wire, O terminal): set C/O type to w/cool (most common and default setting). For change over with heat
systems (Brown wire, B terminal): set C/O type to w/heat.
• 2nd Stage Heat - Enable second stage heating outputs. If you have a single stage heating system, leave this set to
N. If you have a 2 stage heating system, set to Y to enable.
• Aux Heat (HP) - If you have auxiliary heat strips, set this to Y to enable.
• 2nd Stage Cool - Enable second stage cooling outputs. If you have a single stage cooling system, leave this set to
N. If you have a two stage cooling system, set to Y to enable.
