PROGRAMMING
• The fan button will be used for programming
• Pay close attention to the LED lights as it will flash to indicate successful
programming steps and each time the button is pressed while making selections.
• After each step, there are only 20 seconds to make the next programming
selection. If a selection has not been made, time will expire and the LED light will
flash 3 times and exit programming mode.
There’s only one Programmable Function
Function 1: Humidity level (Humidity Range 45% - 80%)
• Setting 1: Low humidity +/- 45%. High sensitivity (requires little humidity
to trigger)
• Setting 2 (Default): Medium humidity +/- 65%. Medium sensitivity
• Setting 3: High humidity +/- 80%. Low sensitivity (requires high humidity
to trigger)
To progam the humidity sensor, you must first enter programming mode:
STEP 1: Enter Programming Mode
Press and hold the fan button for eight seconds until the LED indicator comes on.
STEP 2: Choose the Setting
• Press the fan button the same number of times as the Setting
Number (For example: Press the button 2 times to select Medium detection 65%).

FAN MODES
The fan only has one mode: Auto On, Auto Off. The fan will turn ON
automatically when the humidity level reaches the selected (high, medium,
or low) level and will automatically turn OFF when the humidity level drops
low enough
• After running for 20 minutes, if the humidity level has not dropped low
enough, the fan will pause for 5 minutes, then resume for another
20 minutes.
• This is a feature that prevents the motor on the ventilation fan
from overheating
• When the manual button is used to turn ON, the fan will turn ON for
20 minutes and automatically turn OFF.
• Overriding the fan’s Auto On function: When the manual button is
used to turn OFF the fan, the fan will turn OFF immediately and the
humidity sensor will stop detecting humidity until it is reset by the user.
• This is a great feature if you live in areas with very high humidity
and you don’t want the fan to come on throughout the night
• To Reset the fan’s Auto On function: Use the fan button to turn ON the
fan and allow it to turn off on it’s own (20 minutes).
NOTES
What is Time Delay
• Time delay is how long the fan will run before turning off. This fan
controller has only one time setting and that is to run in 20 minute
intervals. Anytime the fan comes on whether by use of the button or
automatically, the fan will run for only 20 minutes. If humidity in the
room is still at a high level after running for 20 minutes, the TDHOS5
will pause for 5 minutes and resume for another 20 minutes.
High Relative Humidity (RH) locations
• If you live in high humidity areas, consider using the highest humidity
setting for the lowest sensitivity (Function 2, setting 3). If the fan runs
non-stop even with setting 3 selected, you should override the auto-on
until the relative humidity (RH) in your area drops below 80% RH.
LED indicators
• The Fan LED indicator will turn solid red when humidity is detected.
If the manual button is used and no humidity is detected, the LED
indicator will stay white.
TROUBLESHOOTING
• If the humidity sensor does not turn on the fan, but the fan button works.
Change the humidity level to a lower setting. Then reset the fan by using the
fan button to manually turn ON the fan. Wait 20 minutes for the fan to turn off.
The humidity sensor will reset after the 20 minutes.
