The TR40 Thermostat provides typical thermostat functions as well as the capability to send and receive information via serial communications. This communications capability allows the thermostat’s setpoint, mode and fan operation to be changed remotely. In addition, the remote systems can request status of the thermostat’s temperature, setpoints, modes, and other system information.
The thermostat consists of two parts, a Wall Display Unit (WDU) and a HVAC Control Unit. The Wall Display Unit looks like a traditional thermostat and is the wall mounted user interface for the TR40. It provides display, control pushbuttons, and the temperature sensor. The WDU connects to the Control Unit by a 4 wire cable. The Control Unit connects to the HVAC system in place of a standard thermostat and provides thermostatic control of the system. In addition, the Control Unit sends and receives data and commands via a twisted pair serial communications connection for remote control of the system.
The Model TR40 can be used with up to 4 remote temperature sensors such as the RS15.
TR40 Wall Display Unit
The WDU has a backlit LCD graphical display, control buttons, LEDs and a digital temperature sensor. The WDU can display multiple screens. In the default thermostat screen, it shows the current temperature, setpoint, mode and manual fan mode, time, outside temperature and other informat ion.
Any changes in temperature, or control button operations, are transmitted to the Control Unit. Updates are received from the Control Unit and displayed by the WDU.

Wall Display Unit Display
The TR40 display is a graphical LCD display capable of both text and graphics. The WDU has multiple display “screens”. The main screen is the thermostat screen shown above. This screen has a “minimized” mode in which only the temperature is displayed. It reverts to this minimized mode after a timeout delay period.
Other standard screens are selected by the Menu button and include: Messages, Schedules, User Settings, and Thermostat Info. Others may be present and selectable from the menu button in special versions of the WDU.

OPERATION
Wall display Unit Control Buttons
All 6 buttons on the TS40 Wall Display Unit are “Soft Keys” meaning that they change functions when you change screens. The function of the buttons is defined by “on-screen labels” that are dynamic and change when you change screens. The following are definitions for the buttons for the main “Thermostat screen” and their primary mode of operation. Other screens and their button operations are defined in following sections.
Wall Display Unit LEDs
The TR40 has four LED’s that display various status information. The LEDs have dynamic “on-screen” labels that can change with the screen being displayed.
Wall Display Unit “Screens”
One of the unique features of the TS40 WDU graphical display is the ability to have multiple display screens. In addition to a main thermostat screen, menus and other control screens for special functions are provided. This makes an intuitive and easy to use “user interface”. It allows the many functions of the TR40 to be easily navigated.
You move to other screens by pressing the Menu button from the main thermostat screen. A new Main Menu “screen” will be displayed with a list of menu functions. When a menu item is selected, a new “screen” will be displayed for that function. Refer to the individual screen descriptions that follow for details on navigating each screen.
The Minimized Main Thermostat Screen
The main thermostat screen will go to a “minimized” screen after a timeout period. This presents a simple uncluttered display of the current room temperature and outside temperature (if an OT sensor is attached).
Pressing any button causes the full Main Thermostat screen to be restored and displayed.
Screen Timeouts
When you menu to other screens, you have the option of exiting those screens to return to the main thermostat screen or just waiting until the automatic screen timeout occurs that will return the display to the main thermostat screen.
The main thermostat screen normally reverts to the minimized screen after 30 seconds. This can be adjusted from 15 to 120 seconds in the User Settings Menu under Screen Timeout. You can also set the timeout period to “0”. In this case the Main Thermostat screen will NEVER timeout and revert to the minimized screen.

The main thermostat screen is the default display screen and is the screen that is normally displayed on the Wall Display Unit. It will revert to a minimized screen after 30 seconds of display.
Temperature Display
The WDU will normally display the current temperature from the internal digital temperature sensor or a remote sensor. The sensors have an accuracy of +/- 1°F(+/- .5°C). The WDU will display temperatures from
-63°F to 191°F. NOTE: If averaging remote sensors are attached, the display will show the average
temperature of the sensors.
Setpoint Display
The heating and cooling setpoints are displayed next to the Setpoint Up/Down buttons. In the HEAT mode, the Up/Down buttons change the heat setpoint. In the COOL mode, they change the cooling setpoint. When in AUTO mode, the buttons change the last call’s heating or cooling setpoint. Note that the setpoints will “push” each other if they are adjusted to get within the minimum Heat/Cool separation (delta T) setting. This is normally 3 degrees.
Clock Display
The current time is displayed in the upper left corner of the main screen.
Outside Temperature Display
The outside temperature is displayed in the top center of the main screen, if outside temperature information has been sent to the thermostat or a remote temperature sensor is connected to the WDU.

system checkout and testing. Caution: compressor short cycle protection is lost in this mode.
Minimum Run Time Sets the minimum run time before a heating/cooling cycle can turn off. 1-9 Min Minimum Off Time Sets the minimum off time before another heating/cooling cycle can begin. 1-9 Min. Auto Send Mode Sets the thermostat to automatically send changes when the occur, out the serial
network connection. Max Heat SP Sets the maximum heating setpoint that is allowed. Will not ramp or accept setpoints higher
that this maximum. Min Cool SP Sets the minimum cooling setpoint that is allowed. Will not ramp or accept setpoints lower
than this minimum. Delta T Settings This is a submenu of the delta, or difference between, the setpoint and current temp for
determining when a heat or cool call comes on. Deltas are the number of degrees away from setpoint.
Delta T Settings Submenu
H/C Delta Minimum separation between heating and cooling setpoints. Setting a setpoint closer
that this delta will “push” the other setpoint higher (heat) or lower (cool). When the thermostat is in the AUTO mode, this maintains a sufficient separation between setpoints to prevent overshoot from causing auto-changeover and subsequent alternating heating/cooling oscillations.
H Delta Stg 1 ON Sets the temperature delta from setpoint for a stage one heating call.
H Delta Stg 2 ON Sets the temperature delta from setpoint for a stage two heating call.
H Delta Stg 3 ON Sets the temperature delta from setpoint for a stage three heating call.
C Delta Stg 1 ON Sets the temperature delta from setpoint for a stage one cooling call.

WDU Mounting
Route the wires to the WDU through the access hole in the back of the case. Mount the WDU to the wall with the screws and anchors provided. Be sure to plug any large access hole in the wall with sealer or insulation to prevent wall drafts from affecting WDU operation.
WDU Prewiring
For new construction, the recommended wiring to the WDU from the Control Unit should be a two twisted pair cable, 22 Ga minimum. Use of Category 5 wiring is preferred, but not required. In retrofit applications the existing 18Ga thermostat wiring (a least 4 wires) is adequate and usually will work without problems. However, such non-twisted wiring can be subject to interference due to adjacent in-wall high voltage wiring.
WDU To Control Unit Wiring
Wiring the WDU is simply connecting the four wire cable from the Control Unit to the WDU terminal block. Two wires are for data and two are for power. WDU power is 12VDC and provided by the Control Unit.
CAUTION: DO NOT MISWIRE THE POWER AND DATA LINES…DAMAGE WILL RESULT!!!

TR40 CONTROL UNIT
STANDARD HEATING/COOLING HVAC SYSTEMS OPERATION
In the HEAT mode, the heating system will be turned on at one deg below the setpoint and will turn off at the setpoint. In the COOL mode, the cooling system will be turned on at one deg above the setpoint and will turn off at the setpoint. In the AUTO mode, the current heating or cooling operating mode will operate as usual with the one deg setpoint control. In order for the system to change operating mode from heating to cooling, the temperature must rise two deg above the setpoint. On subsequent calls after a change over has occurred, the system will operate normally with the one deg setpoint control. This changeover difference of two deg on the first call helps to prevent the system from overshooting and oscillating between heating and cooling. Changes from cooling to heating works similarly, with the two deg changeover difference being two deg below the setpoint.
STANDARD GAS/ELECTRIC MODE SELECTION. To set the Control Unit for standard GAS/ELECTRIC operation, leave the dipswitch SW1-1 set to OFF (default setting).
FAN MODE SELECTION. Normally, GAS heating systems DO NOT require fan calls along with the heat call due to thermoswitch fan operation in the furnace and dipswitch SW1-2 should be set to OFF (default setting) for standard fan operation. Electric and hydronic heating systems generally DO require that a fan call be generated along with the heat call and dipswitch SW1-2 should be set to ON position for fan with heat operation. Be sure to check your HVAC system’s requirements.
HEAT PUMP HVAC SYSTEMS OPERATION
The heat pump system mode works similarly to the standard systems. Normal heating/cooling calls and auto changeover function the same as standard systems. The major difference is the second stage heat. Heat pump systems use the compressor for the primary heating/cooling source. During conditions of high heating requirements, additional heat stages, usually electric strip heaters, may be used. These second stages of heating will be turned on when the current temperature falls four deg below the current setpoint and will turn off when the difference is reduced to two deg below the current setpoint.
HEAT PUMP MODE SELECTION. To set the Control Unit for Heat Pump operation, set the STD/HP dipswitch SW1-1 to ON.
FAN MODE SELECTION. For normal Heat Pump Operation, set the FAN/HEAT selection dipswitch, SW1-2, to OFF for standard fan operation,
CHANGE OVER SELECTION. Heat pump systems change from heating to cooling by reversing the direction of Freon flow in the system. This change over is controlled by the change over (sometimes referred to as reversing valve) output from the Control Unit. Most heat pump systems are designed to work normally in the heating mode and require a change over output for cooling. Set SW1-3 to OFF (default) for this type system. Check your HVAC system requirements for correct settings. If your system requires change over with heating, set SW1-3 to ON. After the change over relay output is first activated, it will stay on continuously even when there is no call until it is turned off by changing to the opposite mode. This prevents continuously cycling of the reversing valve with each call as a system generally stays in either the heating or cooling mode for extended periods.
REMOTE OPERATION
The TR40 has a serial communications interface that allows remote commands generated by other systems to be received by the TR36. These remote commands can change the setpoint, temperature and mode of the system or may request current status of temperature, setpoint and mode.
REMOTE COMMANDS Refer to the RCS Serial Protocol document, DCN:150-00225, for detailed information on remote commands to
communicate with the TR40 thermostat.

LOCATION AND MOUNTING
Install the Control Unit in a protected, convenient, INDOOR location near the HVAC system or in a service accessible area such as an equipment closet or garage.
Mount the Control Unit in a vertical position on a wall or sturdy structural member. The unit may be mounted on the HVAC system but care should be taken to avoid the hot burner section or high vibration areas.
WIRING
WIRING TO THE WALL DISPLAY UNIT
The Control Unit connects to the TS40 Wall Display Unit by four wires. In retrofi t applications, the existing thermostat wiring may be used, however, for best results and in new construction, a 22Ga two twisted pair cable (such as Cat 5 cable) is recommended.

POWER
The TR40 is supplied with a 12VDC 500mA wall mount transformer.
SYSTEM CHECKOUT
It is strongly recommended that you hook -up and run a simple bench test before installing this controller. Not only will this save you time in system checkout but will also familiarize you with the TR40 operation.
QUICK TEST
NOTE: Before power up, set the control unit dipswitch, SW1, to ALL OFF.
1. Connect a Wall Display Unit to the Control Unit with a short (2 foot) 4 wire cable.
2. Connect the 12VDC transformer to the Control Unit.
3. Plug the transformer into an 110v outlet and apply power to the Control Unit. Verify Power LED is ON.
4. Verify the TS40 display comes on and shows the current temperature.
a. If no display or a “Communications Failure” display is shown on the TS36, b. Double check your wiring. Miswires may cause permanent damage to Wall Display Units. c. Do not proceed until the current temperature and no failure is display ed on the WDU. d. If another WDU is available, try swapping WDU’s.
5. With the current temperature displayed on the WDU, we have verified communication between it and the
Control Unit is OK. Any problems will result in a “Communications Failure” display on the WDU.
6. Press the Fan button on the WDU. The Control Unit Fan LED and relay should turn on.
7. Press the Fan button again. The Fan LED and relay should turn off.
8. Press the Mode button until the WDU is showing “Heat” for Heat Mode.
9. Press the Setpoint Up button until the setpoint is above the current temperature. The Heat LED and relay
should come on.
10. Press the Mode button until the WDU is showing “OFF”. The Heat LED and relay will turn OFF.
11. Press the Mode button until the WDU is showing “Cool” for Cool Mode.
12. Press the Setpoint Down button until the setpoint is below the current temperature. The Cool and Fan
LEDs and relays should turn on.
13. Press the mode button until the WDU is showing “OFF” for OFF Mode.
14. All LEDs and relay s should turn off.
15. When you have successfully completed all these tests, you have verified that the Control Unit and the
WDU are working and communicating correctly.

HVAC SYSTEM QUICK TEST
RELAY
HEAT
The TR40 Control Unit connects to the HVAC system at the normal thermostat connections on the HVAC unit. Standard thermostat control of HVAC systems consist of contact closures in the thermostat. You can verify that your HVAC system is working correctly by duplicating these contact closures by shorting across the proper terminals on the HVAC system. Refer to the following HVAC system example.
HVAC SYSTEM EXAMPLE
This is a simplified diagram of an HVAC System and Thermostat. The Thermostat operates like switches to control the HVAC Heat, Cool and Fan functions.

Since the thermostat interface is simple switch closures, if you have difficulty with the Control Unit and HVAC interface you can always verify HVAC system operation by shorting across the HVAC system terminals as follows:
For Standard HVAC systems: FAN operation: Short across R and G (Fan) terminals.
HEAT operation: Short across R and W (Heat) terminals (Fan is not usually necessary for gas furnaces). COOL operation: Short across R and Y (Compressor) and G (Fan) terminals.
For Heat Pump systems (with Change Over for cooling): FAN operation: Short across R and G terminals.
HEAT Stage 1 operation: Short across R and Y (Compressor) and G (Fan) terminals. HEAT Stage 2 operation: Short across R and W (Heat Strips) and G (Fan) terminals. COOL operation: Short across R and Y (Compressor) and O (Change Over) and G (Fan) terminals.
If the Control Unit output LEDs are ON and you suspect you are not getting an output from the relays, perform the above shorting test to verify that the HVAC system is working OK. If the HVAC system responds correctly to the shorted terminals, then the output relay is suspect.
