WHITE-RODGERS 1F90-71 5-Day 2-Day Electronic Digital Thermostat

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Operator: Save these instructions for future use! FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING THIS CONTROL COULD CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

DESCRIPTION

This wall-mounted, low-voltage thermostat maintains room temperature by controlling the operation of heating and cooling systems. The user may program up to four time/temperature settings per 24 hour period. The thermostat stores independent heating and cooling programs for 5-day (weekday) and 2-day (weekend) periods. The thermostat will store both heating and cooling programs simultaneously. Three “AA” Energizer® batteries will maintain the stored program for approximately one year, if incoming power should fail. If the power failure is extensive and the program is lost, after power restoration, the thermostat will automatically maintain a factory-preprogrammed heating temperature of 64°F or a cooling temperature of 82°F. If in doubt about whether your wiring is millivolt, line, or low voltage, have it inspected by a qualified heating and air conditioning contractor, electrician, or someone familiar with basic electricity and wiring.

PRECAUTIONS

Do not exceed the specification ratings. All wiring must conform to local and national electrical codes and ordinances. This control is a precision instrument and should be handled carefully. Rough handling or distorting components could cause the control to malfunction.

CAUTION

• To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment damage, disconnect electric power to the system, at main fuse or circuit breaker box, until installation is complete.

WARNING
Do not use on circuits exceeding specified voltage. Higher voltage will damage the control and could cause shock or fire hazard. Do not short out terminals on gas valve or primary control to test. Short or incorrect wiring will burn out the thermostat and could cause personal injury and/or property damage.

NEW INSTALLATION

You should program the thermostat with batteries installed before attaching on subbase. See OPERA-TION GUIDE for programming instructions.

SELECT THERMOSTAT LOCATION
Proper location ensures that the thermostat will provide a comfortable building temperature. Observe the following general rules when selecting a location:

1. Locate the thermostat about 5 ft. above the floor.
2. Install the thermostat on a partitioning wall, not on an outside wall.
3. Never expose thermostat to direct light from lamps, sun, fireplaces or any temperature radiating equip-ment.
4. Avoid locations close to windows, adjoining outside walls, or doors that lead outside.
5. Avoid locations close to air registers or in the direct path of air from them.
6. Make sure there are no pipes or ductwork in that part of the wall chosen for the thermostat location.
7. Never locate a thermostat in a room that is normally warmer or cooler than the rest of the building.
8. Avoid locations with poor air circulation, such as behind doors or in alcoves.

ROUTE WIRES TO THE LOCATION

NOTE
All wiring must conform with local and national electrical codes and ordinances.

1. Probe for obstructions in partition before drilling 1⁄2” hole in wall at selected location. Take up a quarter round and drill a small guide hole for sighting (see fig. 1). From the basement, drill 3⁄4” hole in partition floor next to guide hole. In buildings without base-ments, drill 1⁄2” hole through ceiling and into parti-tion from above.
2. Through this hole drop a light chain, or 6” chain attached to a strong cord. Snag cord in the basement with hooked wire. In buildings without basements, drop cord through holes in ceiling and down partitioning; snag cord at the thermostat location.
3. Attach thermostat wire to cord and pull wire through hole in wall so that 6” of wire protrudes.

REPLACEMENT INSTALLATION

REMOVE OLD THERMOSTAT

1. Shut off electricity at the main fuse box until installa-tion is complete. Verify power is off with a voltmeter.
2. Remove the front cover of the old thermostat. With wires still attached, remove wall plate from the wall.
3. If the old thermostat has a wall mounting plate, remove the thermostat and the wall mounting plate as an assembly.
4. FOR HEATING ONLY SYSTEMS — Disconnect the two wires from the old thermostat. Skip steps 5 through 7 below and proceed to ATTACH SUBBASE TO WALL.
5. FOR HEATING/COOLING SYSTEMS — Before re-moving wires from old thermostat, identify the terminals that have wires attached on the old thermostat. Then use Table 1 to identify the type of thermostat you are replacing. For example, if the old thermostat has wires attached to terminals R, W, Y, and G, the old thermostat is a type 5 (note that the old thermostat may not have wires attached to all the terminals identified in Table 1).
6. Use the self-adhesive labels enclosed with your new thermostat to identify the wires attached to the old thermostat. The labels correspond to the thermostat type number you identified in step 5 above (see Table 2). For example, if you determined that the old thermostat is a type 5, use the labels for the type 5 thermostat (you may not use all the labels for the type number you’ve identified if the old thermostat did not have wires attached to all the terminals).
7. Label each wire as you disconnect it. The labels have both the old terminal markings and the new terminal identification. Discard any unused labels. PULL AT LEAST SIX INCHES OF WIRE OUT OF THE WALL WHEN YOU DISCONNECT IT – DO NOT ALLOW THE WIRES TO FALL BACK INTO THE WALL.

ATTACH SUBBASE TO WALL

1. Remove the packing material from the thermostat. Place the fingers of one hand on the center top and bottom portion of the thermostat. Grasp the sub base in the other hand on the top and bottom centre, and gently pull straight out (see fig. 2). The thermostat has pin and socket connectors. Forcing or prying on the thermostat will cause damage to the unit.
2. Pull wires through opening in the center of the sub-base. DO NOT LET WIRES FALL BACK INTO WALL.
3. Connect wires beneath terminal screws on sub-base using appropriate wiring schematic (see figs. 3 through 11). (Installation instructions continue on page 5.)

TABLE 2. WIRE IDENTIFICATION LABELS

NOTE
All wiring diagrams are for typical systems only. Refer to equipment manufacturers’ instructions for specific system wiring information.

CAUTION
To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment damage, disconnect electrical power at the main fuse box or circuit breaker until installation is complete.

1. Place the subbase over the hole in wall and mark mounting hole locations on the wall using the subbase as a template.
2. Move the subbase out of the way. Drill mounting holes.
3. Fasten the subbase loosely to the wall, as shown in fig. 3, using two mounting screws. Place a level against the bottom of the subbase, adjust until level, and then tighten the screws. (Leveling is for appearance only and will not affect thermostat operation.) If you are using an existing mounting hole, or if holes drilled are too large and do not allow you to tighten the subbase snugly, use plastic screw anchors to secure the subbase.
4. Push excess wire into the wall and plug hole with a fire-resistant material (such as fibreglass insulation) to prevent drafts from affecting thermostat operation.

ATTACH THERMOSTAT TO SUB BASE
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU SET OPTION SWITCHES TO THE DESIRED POSITION BEFORE ATTACHING ON SUBBASE (see OPERATION). IT IS ALSO RECOMMENDED THAT YOU PROGRAM THE THERMOSTAT WITH BATTERIES INSTALLED BEFORE ATTACHING ON SUBBASE (see OPERATION GUIDE for programming instructions).

CAUTION

USE TO TURN THE THERMOSTAT OFF BEFORE ATTACHING THE THERMOSTAT TO THE WALL. FAILURE TO TURN THE THERMOSTAT OFF BEFORE ATTACHING TO WALL MAY CAUSE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE DUE TO RAPID COMPRESSOR CYCLING. To attach the thermostat to the subbase, line up the plastic snap guides at the bottom of the thermostat and the three connector pins on the thermostat with the connectors near the bottom left section of the subbase (when viewed from the front). Gently pivot the thermostat up until the six-pin connectors and the plastic snap lock into place (see fig. 12). Be gentle when attaching the thermostat. If the thermostat does not seem to be attaching to the subbase easily, make sure that the connector pins and plastic snaps are properly aligned, and that excess wire is pushed into the wall. Damage to the thermostat may occur if force is used.

OPERATION SYSTEM CONFIGURATION

SET GROUP A OPTION SWITCHES

NOTE
DO NOT REMOVE THE “AA” BATTERIES WHEN CHANGING GROUP A OPTION SWITCHES. Any time Group B option switches are changed, the batteries must be removed for a minimum of two minutes.

1. Total Keypad Activity
2. Total Keypad Lockout — All thermostat buttons are disabled.
3. Limited Temperature Range — Temperature may be raised or lowered within programmed temperature limits (temperature adjustment cannot exceed the lowest cooling or highest heating program temperatures).
4. When thermostat is in Limited Temperature Range only the following buttons are disabled:

SET GROUP B OPTION SWITCHES

NOTE

ANY TIME GROUP B OPTION SWITCHES ARE CHANGED, THE “AA” BATTERIES MUST BE REMOVED FOR A MINIMUM OF 2 MINUTES. DO NOT REMOVE THE BATTERIES WHEN CHANGING GROUP A OPTION SWITCHES.

1. Automatic Changeover (Heating/Cooling Systems Only) — enables the thermostat to automatically switch between heating and cooling programs to maintain desired room temperature.
2. Manual Changeover (Heating/Cooling Systems Only)
3. Heat Only Systems
4. Cool Only Systems
5. Computed Energy Management Recovery (EMR) — With EMR enabled, system will be energized before the next program period begins, to achieve programmed temperature by the beginning of the next program period (the thermostat’s microcomputer calculates 15 minutes for every 2°F temperature change). For example, assume that the thermostat is programmed to provide an overnight heating temperature of 62°F, and during the next program period, programmed to begin at 6:00 AM, the programmed temperature is 70°F. With EMR activated, the thermostat will automatically activate the heating system at 5:00 AM, so that the programmed temperature of 70°F is reached by about 6:00 AM.

ELECTRIC HEAT SYSTEMS
For central electric heat systems where the blower is energized by a separate circuit through the fan relay (meaning that the fan turns on immediately on call for heat), clip wire W14 on the back of the thermostat (see fig. 13). If the thermostat is energizing electric heat sequencers, DO NOT clip wire W14.

CHECK THERMOSTAT OPERATION
When checking the thermostat, Group B option switches #1 and #2 for automatic changeover must be in the OFF position. This will allow temporary setting of heat setpoints above cool setpoints. After system checkout, reset Group B option switch #1 to ON position if the automatic changeover is desired (see SET GROUP B OPTION SWITCHES).

FAN OPERATION

1. Turn on power to the system. If the heat source has a standing pilot, be sure to light it.
2. Press FAN SWITCH until FAN ON is displayed. The blower should begin to operate (this will work only on systems with a G terminal). On three-wire heat only systems, or on four-wire heat/ cool systems, if the thermostat display is operating properly, but the fan does not operate when FAN SWITCH is pressed, the red jumper wire (provided with thermostat) may not be properly installed between the RH and RC terminals. Disconnect electrical power to system and properly install the jumper wire per the appropriate wiring diagram.
3. Press FAN SWITCH until FAN AUTO is displayed. The blower should stop operating within approximately one minute.

HEATING SYSTEM

1. Press until HEAT is displayed (it may already be displayed).
2. Press to adjust thermostat above room temperature to call for heat. The heating system should begin to operate. (Instructions continue on next page.)

LOCKOUT BYPASS OPTION
FOR QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIANS’ USE ONLY. OPERATORS SHOULD NOT USE THIS FEATURE DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF EQUIPMENT OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR PERSONAL INJURY.

COMPRESSOR SHORT TERM CYCLE PROTECTION
This thermostat has a built-in short-term (5-minute) time delay. During these 5 minutes, the thermostat will lock out the compressor to allow head pressure to stabilize. If you want to override this feature while testing thermostat operation, simply press ADV PRGM and HOLD TEMP buttons at the same time at the initial startup.

DO NOT USE THE LOCKOUT BYPASS OPTION UNLESS THE COMPRESSOR OIL HEATERS HAVE BEEN OPERATIONAL FOR 6 HOURS AND THE SYSTEM HAS NOT BEEN OPERATIONAL FOR AT LEAST 5 MINUTES.

COOLING SYSTEM

CAUTION
To prevent compressor and/or property damage, if power to the compressor has been off or interrupted for more than 1 hour and the outdoor temperature is below 50°F, DO NOT operate the system for at least the amount of time the compressor was off! This will allow the compressor heaters to warm the compressor oils to avoid damage due to slugging.

1. Press SYSTEM SWITCH until COOL is displayed.
2. Press to adjust the thermostat below room temperature to call for cooling. The blower should come on immediately, followed by cold air circulation. However, if the blower does not come on and the word COOL is flashing, the compressor lockout feature is operating (see Lockout Bypass Option to temporarily override the compressor lockout feature during testing). If the thermostat display is operating properly, but the cooling system does not operate when the above steps are performed, the red jumper wire (provided with the thermostat) may not be properly installed between the RH and RC terminals. Disconnect electrical power to the system and properly install the jumper wire per the appropriate wiring diagram. After the system has been checked and is running properly,
   determine if automatic changeover is desired (see SYSTEM CONFIGURATION). Refer to the OPERATION GUIDE if you need additional information on thermostat operation.
