You must enter an Installer Password to access the EQUIPMENT SETTINGS from the Main Menu.
The following settings can be changed for Conventional Systems:
Minimum cycle time for the furnace/air conditioner.
(this option only
applies to the furnace)
The fan turns on when the
thermostat sends the fan on
signal. If the Fan Mode is AUTO
the thermostat will turn the fan
on whenever the furnace is
turned on.
The furnace waits until enough
heat is built up before turning on
the plenum fan. The furnace
controls the fan when the Fan
Mode is AUTO.
WARNING: Check with the manufacturer of your furnace/air conditioning system before reducing
the minimum on/off time below the 3 minute default. The minimum on/off timer is for the protection
of furnace/air conditioning systems, some of which may not have their own minimum on/off timers.
Also, increasing the minimum on/off time to longer than 5 minutes could result in over/under-
shooting the target temperature (home is overheated or overcooled).
