Configuring the Jumpers
For additional flexibility, your thermostat has three configurable
outputs. These outputs are designed to have different functions
depending on how the jumpers are set (below).
Each output, labeled MISC1, MISC2, and MISC3 may be set for one
of the five choices available.
In the diagram below, the MISC3 jumper has been set for HUM*
(humidification) operation, the MISC2 jumper has been set for
DEHUM* (dehumidification) operation, and the MISC1 jumper has
been set for W3 (3rd stage of heat) operation.

If the jumper for MISC1, MISC2, or MISC3 is set to W3, the corresponding MISC screw
terminal on the backplate will control a third stage of heat.
W3 MULTI-STAGE OPERATION EXPLAINED - SECTION 13 of the Owner’s
Manual
The 3rd Stage of Heat is turned on when:
(A) The 1st and 2nd stages have been on for the time required (steps #22
and #23, page 13.6). It is adjustable from 0-60 minutes and the default
And
is two minutes.
(B) The temperature from the setpoint is equal to or greater than: the set-
point plus the 1st stage deadband (step #19, 13.5), plus the 2nd stage
deadband (step #20, 13.5) plus the 3rd stage deadband (step #21,
13.5). This 3rd stage deadband is adjustable from 0-10 degrees and
the default is two degrees.

HUM JUMPER SETTING
If the jumper for MISC1, MISC2, or MISC3 is set to HUM,
terminal on the backplate will control a humidification system.
HUMIDIFICATION OPERATION - SECTION 9 of the Owner ’s Manual
If your HVAC unit is equipped with a humidification system and the
Humidity Module (sold separately) has been installed, the thermostat will
provide power to the MISC1, MISC2, or MISC3 terminal of the thermostat
when the humidity in the home falls below the humidity setpoint you have
chosen. The value for this setpoint ranges from 0% to 60%. If no
humidity is desired or if a humidification system has not been installed, set
the value to OFF.

DEHUM JUMPER SETTING
If the jumper for MISC1, MISC2, or MISC3 is set to DEHUM,
terminal on the backplate will be connected to the dehumidification terminal of a furnace board.
NOTE: Not all furnaces have a dehumidification terminal.
DEHUMIDIFICATION OPERATION - SECTION 10 of the Owner’s Manual
If your HVAC unit is equipped with a dehumidification system the thermostat will
operate in one of two ways.
1) Normally Closed (NC): The thermostat will de-energize the MISC1, MISC2,
or MISC3 terminal of the thermostat (this MISC terminal is connected to the
DEHUM terminal on your furnace) to allow the fan to run in low speed when
the humidity in the home is above the dehumidify setpoint you have chosen
and there is a call for 1st stage cooling.
2) Normally Open (NO): The thermostat will energize the MISC1, MISC2, or
MISC3 terminal of the thermostat (this MISC terminal is connected to the
DEHUM terminal on your furnace) to allow the fan to run in low speed when
the humidity in the home is above the dehumidify setpoint you have chosen
and there is a call for 1st stage cooling.

Control up to two Cool stages.
The 2nd Stage of heat or cool is turned on when:
(A) The 1st Stage has been on for the time required (step #22, page 13.6). It is adjustable from 0-60 minutes and the default
is two minutes.
And
(B) The temperature spread from the setpoint is equal to or greater
than: the setpoint plus the deadband (step #20, page 13.5), plus the 2nd deadband (step #20, page 13.5). This 2nd deadband is
adjustable from 0-10 degrees and the default is two degrees.
