(only Basic and Precision
choices).
Dew Point Control will only be
displayed if the system has an
outdoor sensor.

an alert code message, but the
furnace or unit control displays a
diagnostic code.
The red Critical Alert icon and
homeowner alert button do not
display non-critical alerts.
Go to the installer program alert button to view all alerts and details
about those alerts.
10
The iComfort® thermostat does
not display the Model # and or
Serial # indoor or outdoor unit.
The iComfort
®
control was re
placed with a replacement con
trol before the iComfort

figured.
- Replacement iComfort® controls do not have the Model # or Serial
# loaded in the control.
- The Model # and Serial # cannot be added to the control.
- System will still operate normally.

setup button. The system will go through the system discovery pro
cess. The thermostat will display missing devices (old control) and
found compatible devices (new control). Press the next button to
accept the new device and copy the settings. Thermostat will dis

thermostat will not
provide me a choice to add a
non-communicating heat pump to
a gas furnace.
The iComfort
®
system does not
have the ability to control a non-
communicating heat pump on a
dual fuel system.
Replace the iComfort® thermostat with a conventional thermostat
that has a dual fuel control mode (e.g. Lennox ComfortSense
7000).
16
During system discovery, the
thermostat displays a message
Thermostat is unable to commu
nicate to system components.
The thermostat was not suc
cessful in communicating to the
indoor unit.
- Verify the indoor unit has a iComfort

thermostats.
- Check R, i+. I- , C wires for open/shorts.

tion does not respond to calibra
tion changes.
Temperature/Humidity calibra
tion changes will change dis
play 1ºF or 1% RH every 3

to the time delay. A 5ºF calibration change will take 15 minutes to
calibrate the display.
