UNDERSTANDING SWING AND STAGING
All Bosch thermostats have adjustable swings.
Cycling your HVAC system is a balance between user
comfort and equipment efciency. Equipment wear
and tear is also a consideration.
• User comfort is maximized by small swings
• Equipment efciency is maximized by large swings
• Equipment wear and tear is minimized by large
swings
• The ideal swing is one at which the system runs as
long and with as few cycles as possible without the
homeowner being uncomfortable
• Modern systems are designed to run longer with
fewer cycles for best efciency
• Staging systems are designed to be most efcient
on rst stage (excluding dual fuel systems)
• Equipment life is reduced by frequent on/off cycles
• The 1st stage energizes at 1x swing, the 2nd stage
at 2x swing and the 3rd stage at 3x swing.
Example:
• Thermostat system switch set to heat
• Swing setting is 1°F
• Set point is 70°
Temp Actions
71°F 1st Stage Off
70°F Set point
69°F 1st Stage On / 2nd Stage Off
68°F 2nd Stage On / 3rd Stage Off
67°F 3rd Stage On
The 1st stage will energize at 69°F and turn off at
71°F. The 2nd stage will energize at 68°F and turn
off at 69°F. The 3rd stage will energize at 67°F and
turn off at 68°F.
HUM TERMINAL
HUM TERMINAL SETTING
1 "H" terminal is energized when a heating
call is made or a FAN ON call is made
2 "H" terminal is energized when a heating
call is made
3 "H" and "G" terminals are energized
with and without a heating call
4 "H" terminal only is energized without
heating call and remains energized with
a heating call
* These setting and condition explanations assume
humidity set point has not been satised and the
equipment is attempting to actively humidify
HUM and DHM Terminals
DHM TERMINAL
DHM TERMINAL SETTING
Without Cool-to-Dehumidify Feature Active With Cool-to-Dehumidify Feature Active
1 “D” terminal is energized when a cooling call is
made or a FAN ON call is made.
First stage of cooling (Y1,O,G) along with “D”
terminal are energized even if space temp is
satised (within the over cool limit)
When the set point is beyond the over cool limit,
the “D” will also energize with a FAN ON call
2
“D”
and "G" terminals energized even when
space temp is satised.
“D” and “G” remain energized if cooling call is
made.
“D” and “G” terminals only are energized even
when space temp is satised.
“D” and “G” remain energized if cooling call is
made.”
3 “D” terminal only is energized with and without
a cooling call.
“D” terminal only is energized with and without a
cooling call
4 “D” terminal only is energized without a cooling
call.
“D” terminal is de-energized when a cooling call
is made.
“D” terminal is energized without a cooling call
“D” terminal is de-energized when a cooling call is
made”
