Begin by installing the subbase, ensuring it is level and securely fastened to the wall or junction box. Use the provided template to mark the wall for accurate placement. Drill pilot holes and insert wall anchors if necessary. Mount the subbase using the screws provided, ensuring it is tightly secured. Connect the HVAC system wires to the appropriate terminals on the subbase, following the wiring diagram in the manual. Once installed, the subbase provides a stable foundation for the thermostat, ensuring proper operation and connectivity.
Mounting the Thermostat
Attach the thermostat to the installed subbase, ensuring proper alignment with the mounting screws. Gently press the thermostat onto the subbase until it securely clicks into place. Make sure all connections are firm and not loose. Open the battery compartment on the back, insert two AA alkaline batteries, and close the compartment. The thermostat is now ready for operation. Refer to the manual for additional steps to configure settings and ensure optimal performance. This process ensures a safe and efficient installation.
Understanding Operation Modes
The T855iSH thermostat operates in Heat, Cool, or Off modes. Heat activates the heating system, Cool engages the cooling system, and Off stops HVAC operation but maintains fan functionality.
Heat Mode Operation
To engage Heat Mode, press the mode button until “HEAT” is displayed. The thermostat will activate the heating system to reach the set temperature. Use the up or down buttons to adjust the desired temperature. The T855iSH supports various heating systems, including gas, oil, and electric furnaces. Ensure the system is compatible with your HVAC setup. For energy efficiency, program your heating schedule in advance. A green indicator light confirms the heat mode is active. Always monitor the display for system status updates. Proper maintenance ensures optimal heating performance.
Cool Mode Operation
Activate Cool Mode by selecting “COOL” on the thermostat. The system will lower the room temperature to the set point. Adjust the desired temperature using the up or down buttons. The T855iSH supports various cooling systems, including conventional AC and heat pumps. For optimal performance, ensure proper system configuration. The thermostat also manages humidity levels during cooling. A blue indicator light confirms cool mode is active. Regularly check air filters and maintain proper ventilation for efficient cooling operation.
Off Mode Functionality
Selecting “OFF” mode disables both heating and cooling functions. The system stops active temperature control, allowing the room to return to its natural state. This mode is ideal for energy conservation or when the system is not needed. The thermostat’s display remains active, showing the current temperature and humidity levels. Selecting “OFF” does not affect pre-set schedules or programming. To reactivate, choose either Heat or Cool mode. Energy-saving features remain operational in Off mode, optimizing efficiency without compromising comfort.
Wiring and Connections
The T855iSH thermostat is designed for compatibility with 24V systems, including conventional HVAC setups and heat pumps. Proper wiring ensures safe and efficient operation.
Terminal Designations Explained
The T855iSH thermostat features clearly labeled terminals to ensure proper connections. The R terminal connects to the HVAC system’s 24V power supply, while C provides the common connection. W and O terminals control heating and heat pump reversing, respectively. Y and B manage cooling and compressor operations. Additional terminals like G (fan) and L (neutral) ensure complete system integration. Proper wiring according to these designations is crucial for safe and efficient operation. Always refer to the manual for specific configurations, especially for heat pumps or multi-stage systems.
Connecting the Thermostat to Your HVAC System
To connect the T855iSH thermostat, first ensure the HVAC system is powered off. Locate the terminal designations on both the thermostat and your HVAC system. Connect the R terminal to the 24V power supply and C to the common terminal. For heating, attach W to the heating stage, and for cooling, connect Y to the compressor.
