IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION WARNING:

•Always turn off power at the main power source by unscrewing fuse or switching circuit breaker to the off position before installing, removing, cleaning, or servicing thermostat.

• Read all the information in this manual before installing or programming this thermostat.

• This is a 24 VAC low-voltage thermostat. Do not install on voltages higher than 30 VAC.

• All wiring must conform to local and national building and electrical codes and ordinances.

• Do not short (jumper) across terminals on the gas valve or at the system control to test installation. This will damage the thermostat and void the warranty.

Step 1: Replacing Existing Thermostat

1. Turn off power to heating and cooling system.

2. Remove cover from old thermostat to expose wires (Figure 1).

3. Disconnect wires one at a time from existing terminals. Use enclosed labels to mark existing wires. Refer to cross references in Table 1 if existing wiring does not directly match the labels.

17. Replace thermostat cover by snapping into place.

18. Turn on power to system. Test thermostat as described in the fol-

lowing section.

Step 3: Testing the Thermostat

WARNING: DO NOT SHORT (JUMPER) ACROSS TERMINALS

OF GAS VALVE OR SYSTEM CONTROL TO TEST OPERATION. THIS WILL DAMAGE THE THERMOSTAT AND VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

CAUTION: DO NOT SWITCH SYSTEM TO COOL IF THE TEMPERATURE IS

BELOW 50°F (10°C). THIS CAN DAMAGE THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM AND CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY.

1. Place the AUTO-HEAT-OFF-COOL switch into

the COOL position.

2. Press the  button until the temperature setting

is at least 3 degrees below the room temperature.

The air conditioning system should turn on within

a few seconds.

NOTE: ONCE THE THERMOSTAT TURNS OFF WHEN IN THE COOL MODE, A

BUILT IN 5-MINUTE DELAY PREVENTS THE SYSTEM FROM TURNING ON AGAIN. THIS PROTECTS THE COMPRESSOR. NO ADDITIONAL TIME DELAY RELAY IS REQUIRED. TO OVERRIDE THE 5MINUTE DELAY FOR INSTALLATION, PRESS THE RESET BUTTON.

3. Put the AUTO-HEAT-OFF-COOL switch into

the OFF position. The air conditioning system

should turn off.

4. Put the AUTO-HEAT-OFF-COOL switch into

the HEAT position.

5. Press the button until the temperature

setting is at least 3 degrees above room

temperature. The heating system should

turn on. The fan may not turn on immediately,

depending on the fan delay built into the furnace.

6. Put the AUTO-HEAT-OFF-COOL switch into

the OFF position. The heating system should

turn off. The fan may continue to run for a

short period of time.

7. Put the -ON-AUTO switch into the ON

position. The blower fan should turn on.

8. Put the -ON-AUTO switch into the AUTO

position. The blower fan should turn off.

Step 4: Customizing the Thermostat

◆ Settings

System

Cool: The thermostat controls the cooling. Off: The heating and cooling systems are off. Heat: The thermostat controls the heat. AUTO: The thermostat automatically selects heat or cool depending

on the temperature.

Fan

Auto: Equipment controls the fan. On: The fan operates continuously.

Temperature

The default setpoint temperature for heating is 70°F (21°C), for cooling is 78°F (25°C) and for auto is 72°F (22°C). After putting the system switch in heat, cool, or auto, press either the  or



button to adjust the temperature setting up or down.

The display will return to the current room temperature five seconds after the last input and the new setpoint will be saved.

◆ Temperature Differential and Deadband

The temperature differential is factory set at 1°F (0.5°C) for the 1STstage differential and 2°F (1.0°C) for the 2NDstage. This means that whenever the room temperature changes by one degree Fahrenheit from the temperature setting, the system will turn on. If the system turns on too often, increase the temperature differential.

The 2NDstage will turn on when the room temperature changes from the desired temperature by the sum of the 1STand 2NDstage differential settings. The 2NDstage will also turn on if the temperature has not increased (or decreased in the event of cooling) for a period of twenty minutes.

Although programmed at the same time as the temperature differentials, the deadband is used only during the AUTO mode. In the AUTO mode, the thermostat will automatically cycle either the heating or cooling system to maintain optimal comfort. The deadband is the minimum allowable temperature which must occur to switch to the opposite mode. For example, if the deadband is set at 3°F and the setpoint is set at 70°F, the thermostat will switch to cooling mode when the temperature reaches 73°F.

NOTE: IF THE TEMPERATURE LIMITING JUMPER J3 IS CUT

(FIGURE 7), THE DEADBAND IS NOT ADJUSTABLE AND IS AUTOMATICALLY SET TO 6°F (3°C).

◆ Changing Fahrenheit (F) to Celsius (C),

Temperature Differential, Deadband, and Residual Cool

The temperature differential is factory set at 1°F (0.5°C) for the 1STstage differential and 2°F (1.0°C) for the 2NDstage. The deadband for auto changeover is set at 3°F (1.5°C). To change settings:

1. The thermostat is preset to display the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (U.S. models) or degrees Celsius (Canadian models). The temperature display can be changed. Press and hold both the

 and



buttons for three seconds. The display will read F or C. Release the

buttons. Press either the  or button to change the display.

2. After three seconds, the display will switch to the differential settings. The display will read DIFFERENTIAL 1

3. The temperature differential is factory set at 1°F (0.5°C) for the first stage. Press either the  or button to adjust the 1STstage differential between 0.5°F - 3°F.

4. Either wait three seconds or press the button. The display will indicate: DIFFERENTIAL 2ND.

5. The 2nd stage differential is factory set at 2°F (1.5°C). Press either the  or button to adjust the 2nd stage temperature differential between 1°F - 6°F (1°C - 3°C).

6. Press the  or button to adjust the 2nd stage timed differential between 5 to 40 minutes. Either wait 5 seconds or press the button.

7. Either wait three seconds or press the button. The display will indicate: AUTOCHANGE DEADBAND.

8. Press either the  or button to adjust the deadband between 2°F - 8°F (1.0°C - 4.5°C).

9. Either wait three seconds or press the button. The fan icon and ON will be displayed.

10. Press either the  or button to adjust the residual cool fan delay

between 0, 30, 60, or 90 seconds.

11. The display will return to the original room temperature display after a few seconds.

◆ LED Indicators

The Robertshaw 9555 uses three LED indicators (in addition to icons on the LCD display) to indicate functionality of the thermostat. When illuminated, the right orange LED indicates that the thermostat is calling for heat. The left green LED indicates a call for cool. When the middle amber LED is illuminated, the thermostat is calling for second stage heating or cooling. If this LED is illuminated too frequently during periods of moderate temperature, check the differential settings (see Temperature Differential and Deadband section).

◆ Backlit Display

This thermostat is equipped with a backlight to make nighttime temperature adjustments quick and easy. Press the button to activate the backlight. The backlight will turn off after about 15 seconds of inactivity.

◆ Reset

To reset the thermostat to factory preprogrammed conditions, press the RESET button located beneath the lower left corner of the display.
