INTRODUCTION

How do we know?

Well, for one thing you just bought a Trane

Home Comfort Sensor, the communications inter-

face for the Trane Integrated Comfort System.

This means you’ve opted for energy efficiency,

lower utility bills and doing a little something to

save the planet–all in one bold move.

As you know, this is an instruction manual for

the Home Comfort Sensor.

Even the most intuitive trailblazers need

a road map sometimes, so this manual was

designed to be as self-explanatory as possible.

The Home Comfort Sensor is a computer, but

that’s the last time we’ll mention it. These

instructions are in plain English with only a cou-

ple of unusual words like setpoint and LCD. No

technical talk, no complicated diagrams. All you

have to do to become a Home Comfort Sensor

expert is follow the simple steps in this booklet.

But before we begin, you might want to spend

a few moments looking over the glossary of terms

on the next page. It will make those unusual

words we mentioned earlier more meaningful.

You’re a very bright person.

For one thing, it can take a load off your mind.

Once you’ve entered the setpoints on the Home

Comfort Sensor, it will maintain comfort control

for you. It will adjust your home‘s heating and

cooling when it’s supposed to, and it won’t forget,

as a mere mortal might.

It will remember what you tell it, even during

emergencies. You’ll be happy to know that –

unlike your VCR and other electronic digital clocks

– the Home Comfort Sensor won’t forget its

setpoints during a power failure. You have plenty

of other things to worry about when that happens.

You probably won’t find the instruction manual

by then anyway, so that’s why we’ve included

three button batteries for power backup. Simply

install them and don’t worry about a power failure

knocking out your Home Comfort Sensor thermo-

stat. When the LCD clock flashes, it’s time to

replace your batteries and re-set your clock. But

even when you have to change your batteries, your

Home Comfort Sensor won’t forget its setpoints.

The Home Comfort Sensor spends

practically all of its time connected to AC house

power, but when the word Connect is displayed in

the lower left corner, your thermostat is running

on battery power and needs to be reconnected to

AC power. When the thermostat is running on

batteries, it will automatically go into a battery-

saving mode to extend the life of the batteries.

Don’t be alarmed if you see the word Off dis-

played on the front panel. This simply indicates

that the AC power is off. Press any key to exit the

battery saving mode.

The Home Comfort Sensor will stay in touch

with you and your home comfort system. A little

green light will flash to let you know it’s talking

with the heat pump or air conditioner. That’s

good. The last thing you want is a senseless

sensor.

What The Home Comfort Sensor Can Do For You:

BASIC

PROCEDURES

Start-up begins with four simple steps:

1. Find a comfortable, well-lit spot to

sit down with the Home Comfort Sensor and this

manual. (Relaxing in an easy chair is the most

comfortable way to meet new challenges.)

2. Remove the front of the Home Comfort

Sensor from its mounting bracket. On the back

side you’ll see the batteries on the left edge.

Remove the plastic insulating strip from between

the batteries. The Home Comfort Sensor will then

begin operating after a short delay.

Now you can adjust your setpoint and set the

clock right from the comfort of your easy chair.

3. This sensor has a back lit display. This will

help you see the LCD if the lighting is dim. It is

activated by pressing one of the keys on the key

pad and will be on for approximately 25 seconds.

4. Read on.

Ready, Set…Relax.
