Concord 4 User Manual 29
Example:
• At your touchpad, you set a high temperature point (to trigger the air
conditioner) and a low temperature point (to trigger the furnace).
• If you usually keep the temperature in your home at 68
F, but no one will be
there during the day, you can turn the energy saver feature on. If you’ve set
the low temperature point to 55
F, the furnace will keep the house heated to
55
F.
• You are about to return home and would like the house to be heated to its
normal 68
F when you arrive. If your system includes remote access, you can
call home and turn the energy saver feature off, giving control back to the
furnace thermostat (68
F).
You can control your air conditioning temperatures in the same manner.
In addition to controlling temperature, the energy saver feature notifies the
central monitoring station if your heating unit fails, before pipes freeze.
Energy saver temperature settings
Initially, you must set the energy saver to the desired high and low temperatures.
The high and low settings you enter do not control heating and cooling systems,
but determine the point at which the furnace or air conditioner is activated.
Temperature settings can range from 45 to 90
F.
To set the energy saver temperature range from a touchpad:
1. Enter the programming menus by pressing 9, system or partition master
code.
2. Press 070.
3. Enter the lowest temperature (45 to 89
F) you will allow before the furnace
turns on, and then press #.
4. Press B. Enter the highest temperature (46 to 90
F) you will allow before the
air conditioner turns on, and then press #.
5. Press *, 00, # to exit the programming menus.
Note: The panel must be armed for the energy saver to work. Disarming the
system turns off the energy saver. If the energy saver has been turned off, allow
5 minutes before attempting to turn the energy saver back on.
To override your normal heating or air conditioning settings, turn the energy save
feature on. When you are ready to return to your normal temperature control
settings, turn the energy saver feature off.
To turn energy saver on or off from any touchpad, press 72. Alphanumeric
touchpads display ENERGY SAVER IS ON.
