The Setpoint Control 162 is a single stage heat or cool setpoint control that can operate on an On / Off differential or can
operate on Pulse Width Modulation. The control includes a second relay contact to operate a system pump. The control
includes special modes for hot tub, indirect domestic hot water tank, radiant floor, and pool applications.
Use the Lock / Unlock DIP switch to lock or unlock the
Access Level of the 162.
• To unlock the Access Level, set the DIP switch to the
unlocked (left) position.
• To lock the Access Level, set the DIP switch to the locked
(right) position. Once locked, a padlock is displayed in
the lower right corner of the display and the Access
Level cannot be changed.
Note: The tN4 System Control’s Lock / Unlock DIP switch
overrides the Lock / Unlock DIP switch on the 162. Set
the tN4 System Control’s Lock / Unlock DIP switch to the
Unlock position before Access Levels can be changed on
the setpoint control.
tN4 System Control (DIP Switch #2)
A tN4 System Control is a control, not a thermostat, that
the Setpoint Control 162 connects to through the tN4
bus. All tN4 compatible Outdoor Reset Modules are tN4
System Controls.
• If the thermostat is connected to a tN4 System Control,
set the tN4 System Control DIP switch to tN4 System
Control (left position).
• If the thermostat is not connected to a tN4 System
Control, set the tN4 System Control DIP switch to None
(right position).
The Access Level restricts the number of Menus, Items
and Adjustments that can be accessed by the user. The
Access Level setting is found in the Miscellaneous (MISC)
menu. Select the appropriate access level for the people
who work with the setpoint control on a regular basis.
The 162 has five Access Levels:
• Advanced (ADV): access to all settings
• Installer (InST): settings required for installation
• User (USER): for property owners
• Limited (LTD): limited temperature adjustment
• Secure (SEC): for commercial and public installations
In the Limited access level, the temperature can only be
adjusted by +/-3°F (1.5°C) from the temperature setting
entered prior to entering the Limited access level.

For more information, see the Miscellaneous (MISC) Menu
section.
In the following menu tables, the access level the item is
visible in is shown in the access column.
To adjust the Access Level:
1. Set the Unlock / Lock DIP switch to the unlock position.
If a tN4 System Control is connected to the 162, the
Unlock / Lock DIP switch on the tN4 System Control
must be set to the unlock position.
2. Use the Menu button to select the MISC menu.
3. Use the Item button to select the Access item.
4. Use the Up and Down button to select the required
Access Level.

In each menu, a group of items can be selected. The
abbreviated name of the selected item displays in the Item
field of the LCD display.
• To view the next available item, press and release the
Item button.
• To view the previous item, hold down the Item button
and press and release the Up button.
Adjusting a Setting
To adjust a setting:
1. Use the Menu button to select the appropriate menu.
2. Use the Item button to select a menu item.
3. Use the Up or Down button to adjust the setting.
Default Item
To set the default item in the VIEW Menu, display item for
more than five seconds.
After navigating menus, the display reverts back to the
default item after 60 seconds of button inactivity.
The Setpoint Control 162 is designed to support six different
applications. The items shown in the VIEW and ADJUST
Menu change depending on the Application Mode.
Set the application mode as follows:
1) On / Off Setpoint
2) Hot Tub
3) Indirect DHW Tank
4) PWM Setpoint
5) Floor
6) Pool
Applications: On / Off Differential
Mode 1 Setpoint (On / Off)
Load
The VIEW and ADJUST menus list which of the six application
items are visible based upon the mode column.
The TIME, SCHD (Schedule) and MISC (Miscellaneous)
menus are the same for the six application modes.
Relay 1 On / Off Differential Operation
The On / Off Differential operates by centering a differential
range around the target setpoint temperature. On / Off
differentials are best suited to heating or cooling loads
that quickly change temperature.
Heating Operation
When heating, the setpoint control turns on Relay 1 when
the temperature falls to 1/2 of the differential below the
setpoint and turns off Relay 1 once the temperature reaches
1/2 of the differential above the setpoint.
Mode 2 Hot Tub
Mode 3 DHW Tank

Cooling Operation
When cooling, the setpoint control turns on Relay 1 when
the temperature rises to 1/2 of the differential above the
setpoint and turns off Relay 1 once the temperature falls
1/2 of the differential below the setpoint.
PWM operates by centering the throttling range around
the target setpoint temperature. PWM is best suited for
large heating or cooling loads that do not change rapidly
in temperature. The Differential setting in the ADJUST
menu changes the throttling range while in Application
Mode 4 (Setpoint). The throttling range is not adjustable
in Application Modes 5 (Floor) or 6 (Pool).
Heating Operation
When the temperature is at the setpoint, Relay 1 is on
for 50% of a cycle and off for 50% of a cycle. When the
temperature is 1/2 of the throttling range below the setpoint,
Relay 1 is on for 100% of a cycle. When the temperature is
1/2 of the throttling range above the setpoint, Relay 1 is off
for 100% of a cycle. For ranges within the throttling range,
Relay 1’s on time increases linearly as temperature falls.

Cooling Operation
When the temperature is at the setpoint, Relay 1 is on
for 50% of a cycle and off for 50% of a cycle. When
the temperature is 1/2 of the throttling range below the
setpoint, Relay 1 is off for 100% of a cycle. When the
temperature is 1/2 of the throttling range above the
setpoint, Relay 1 is on for 100% of a cycle. For ranges
within the throttling range, Relay 1’s on time increases
linearly as temperature rises.
Note: This item is only available when the setpoint
control is connected to a tN4 bus and the Outdoor
item in the ADJUST menu is set to On.

Control, and the Heat Source item in the ADJUST
menu is set to hydronic (HYDr).
After the last item, the control returns to the first item in the menu.
