45 Using The ecobee EMS Thermostat
Auto Turns on the furnace fan when the system is
heating, cooling or ventilating the building, or to
satisfy the minimum fan “on” time.
When you switch between Auto and ON in fan control,
the Thermostat will prompt you with the following:
Hold 2 hours
Hold 4 hours
Indefinite The fan will switch to this setting and will
only revert back if you do so manually
Minimum “On” Time This feature allows you to
determine a minimum time per hour that the furnace
fan will run. This results in optimal air circulation and a
more consistent temperature within the building, and
is more cost-eective than choosing the On setting.
Current Humidity
Displays the current percentage of humidity in the room
where the Thermostat is installed. Humidity displays
even if the Thermostat has not been congured to
control a humidier or dehumidier.
Humidier | Dehumidier
Humidity is an important factor in the overall comfort.
If the Thermostat was configured to control a
humidifier or dehumidifier, you will be able to select
the options below to control the level of humidity in
the building.
Humidier
This option will let you congure the humidier
connected to the Thermostat. Options are:
On The system will maintain the humidifier to the
programmed level.
Off The system will not control the humidity
in the building.
Frost Control
During the heating season, the Thermostat will
automatically adjust the humidity levels to minimize
frost or condensation forming on the windows. Internet
access is required for this feature to operate properly.
Humidier Set Point
Select this option to program the desired set point for
the humidifier. If Frost Control is selected, this option
will display the optimal level.
Dehumidier
This allows you to turn the dehumidier on or o.
Dehumidier Level
Select this option to program the desired set point for
the dehumidifier.
Ventilator Max
If the system is equipped with a ventilation system, you
can manually switch the ventilator to the maximum
setting directly from the Thermostat.
When you select this, the ventilator switches into the
maximum mode for 20 minutes then switches back to its
normal operating state. The system fan is also activated.
NEW Viewing Sensor (optional EB-RSM)
If you have the optional remote sensor module installed,
when you press the More icon from the home screen a
new sensor icon will be displayed. This feature will allow
you to view the readings of all the sensors connected.
In addition for any of the sensor congured as a control
sensor, you will be able to select which temperature
or sensors will be used as the set temperature. If more
than one is chosen the Thermostat will take the average
of those sensors. The same logic applies for indoor
humidity sensors.
Preferences and Settings
Once you have connected to the Internet, the following
steps can be done either at the Thermostat or with
through the EMS Web Portal. The steps below indicate
how to perform these functions from the Thermostat.
Temperature Display
Touch the Temperature Display to select Fahrenheit (°F)
or Celsius (°C).
