UNIVERSAL INPUTS

(S1, S2, S3, S4)

S1, S2, S3, and S4 are universal inputs that can be setup to

work with a sensor or dry contact device in the Installer Setup.

Setup options and compatible sensors are listed below. See

wiring diagrams on page 96 and page 154.

ALERTS AND DIAGNOSTICS

The thermostat uses alerts and diagnostics to provide greater

comfort and efficiency. Alerts and diagnostics can notify

customers when maintenance or service is needed, and

display your contact information to make it easy for them to

reach you.

Delta T Diagnostics

If discharge and return air sensors are installed, the thermostat

can track system performance over time. It measures this as

“Delta T.” The thermostat monitors Delta T and displays an

alert on the home screen when the system exceeds the limits

you set.

Delta T Diagnostics tells you if the system is performing above

or below expected standards which would normally go

unnoticed, and may cause unnecessary energy use. It can also

detect and warn about problems early, before heating or

cooling equipment fails.

The thermostat will measure and record Delta T of the system

for each stage you test. This information can be used to set the

proper Delta T fault limits of the system. When the system

operates outside those limits multiple times (see “Advanced

Options for Delta T Diagnostics” beginning on page 90), an

alert is recorded in the log. If configured to do so, the system

will then display an alert to the homeowner, along with your

contact information.

Before You Set Up Delta T

Diagnostics

Refer to the information below for tips on installation and setup

of Delta T Diagnostics.

1. Refer to Fig. 10–14 for the placement of the Discharge

and Return Air Sensors.

2. In gas or oil forced air systems, Delta T will continue to

rise for several minutes even after Delta T begins to

stabilize. Be sure the Maximum Delta T Limit is set

higher than the expected stable Delta T. See Fig. 147.

Fig. 147.

3. Delta T can be affected by indoor and outdoor conditions

for heat pumps and cooling systems. Consider the total

range of normal performance when setting the Delta T

Limits.

For example, in cooling, you might have a Delta T of 20

°F when the outdoor humidity is 50% and a Delta T of 16

°F when the outdoor humidity is 85%.

You can either set Limits further apart and monitor Delta

T during all indoor and outdoor conditions or set Limits

closer together and turn off diagnostics during certain

indoor and outdoor conditions (see “Advanced Options

for Delta T Diagnostics” beginning on page 90).

For example, you can set limits closer together and then

turn off diagnostics when outdoor temperature is above

90 degrees and outdoor humidity is above 85%.

4. Verify the filter is clean and all the registers are open

before running an equipment test.

5. Select a Run Time when Delta T begins to stabilize

during the equipment test.

6. Set Minimum and Maximum Delta T Limits based on

what you consider to be unacceptable performance from

the heating and cooling equipment.

NOTE: When the system operates below the Minimum

Limit or above the Maximum Limit multiple

times (Table 7), an alert is recorded in the log. If

configured to do so, the thermostat will display

an alert to the user, along with your contact

information.
