“12:00”) will be flashing.

The TX1500 alternately displays the

current time and the room
temperature. It also displays the day of
the week and the currently active program period that is controlling the temperature: MORN,
DAY, EVE, or NIght.

The set point temperature will appear in the right side of the display. In the winter, set the

system switch to HEAT to control your heating system. In the summer, set the switch to COOL
to control your air conditioner. In spring and fall or when windows are open, you can set the
system switch OFF.

Setting the FAN switch to AUTO

automatically runs your system’s fan
during heating and cooling. Setting the
FAN switch to ON runs your system’s
fan continuously even without heating
or cooling.

FILTER USAGE MONITOR

The FILTER Monitor counts the hours since the filter in your blower was last changed. After

250 hours of use, FILTER will appear in the display. After you change the filter, set the
thermostat’s FILTER Monitor back to zero as follows.

TEMPERATURE SWING

A thermostat works by turning your heating or cooling system on and off whenever the

room temperature varies a certain number of degrees from the set-point temperature. This
variation is the “swing.”

Your system should cycle on about 3 to 6 times per hour. A smaller swing number

increases the number of cycles, so room temperature is more constant. A larger swing
number decreases the number of cycles, to save energy in most cases.
