INTRODUCTION

The Infinity System consists of several intelligent communicating components which include the Infinity Control (or User Interface), variable speed furnace or FE fan coil, 2–stage AC or HP and Infinity Packaged Products, which continually communicate with each other via a four-wire connection called the ABCD bus. Commands, operating conditions, and other data are passed continually between components over the ABCD bus. The result is a new level of comfort, versatility, and simplicity.

All Infinity furnaces or fan coils are variable–speed and multi-stage for maximum flexibility, efficiency, and comfort. They support controlled ventilation, humidification, dehumidification, and air quality control. Either an Infinity (communicating), or a standard 24VAC controlled outdoor unit may be used.

When using conventional outdoor units, the Infinity furnace or fan coil provides the 24-volt signals needed to control them. Also, the Infinity Network Interface Module (P/N SYSTXCCNIM01) allows the connection of a Carrier HRV or ERV without the need for a separate wall control.

All system components are controlled through the wall-mounted Infinity Control, which replaces the conventional thermostat and provides the homeowner with a single wall control for all features of the system.

INSTALLATION, START-UP OVERVIEW

This instruction covers the installation of the Infinity Control only. Physical installation instructions for the indoor and outdoor equipment and accessories are provided with each unit.
Setup, commissioning, operation, and troubleshooting of the Infinity System are covered only in this installation instruction. It is the guide to connecting the system components and
commissioning the system once all physical components are installed. The special screen prompts and start-up capabilities are provided in the Infinity System to simplify and automate the initial commissioning of the system.

  • Install Infinity Control according to this instruction.
  • Install indoor unit, outdoor unit, and accessories according to their instructions.
  • Wire complete system according to this instruction.
  • Setup, commission, and operating system according to this instruction to assure a smooth and trouble-free startup.

INSTALLATION

Inspect equipment. File claim with shipping company prior to installation if shipment is damaged or incomplete.
Infinity Control Location and Wiring Considerations

WARNING

ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
Disconnect power before routing control wiring.

All wiring must comply with national, local, and state codes.
Infinity Control Location
The Infinity Control User Interface is the command center for the Infinity System. It should be located where it is easily accessible and visible to the adult homeowner or end-user.
For accurate temperature measurement, the following guidelines should be followed:
The Infinity Control and Room Sensors should be mounted:

  • Approximately 5–ft (1.5 m) from the floor.

  • Close to or in a frequently used room, preferably on an inside partitioning wall.

  • On a section of wall without pipes or ductwork.
    The Infinity Control and Room Sensors should NOT be mounted:

  • Close to a window, on an outside wall, or next to a door leading to the outside.

  • Exposed to direct light or heat from a lamp, sun, fireplace, or other temperature–radiating objects which could cause a false reading.

  • Close to or in direct airflow from supply registers.

  • In areas with poor air circulation, such as behind a door or in an alcove.

Remote Room Sensor Option
A Remote Room Sensor can be used with the Infinity Control to take the place of the User Interface internal temperature sensor. This allows the Infinity Control to be mounted in areas with less than optimal airflow (such as near an exterior door, window, or in a closet). The remote sensor can be wired to the terminal block connectors labeled S1 and S2 at the User Interface backplate, or the ZS1 and ZS1C connection at the Damper Control Module. In either case, the Infinity Control will automatically detect the

Remote Room Sensor and ignore its internal temperature sensor. Typically, one remote sensor is used but, multiple sensors may be used and averaged in some applications. Averaging requires a special series-parallel wiring method with a specific number of sensors. See Fig. 2. It is also important to note the humidity sensor cannot be remotely located, so do not locate the Infinity Control in an area where humidity sensing may not be accurate.

ignore

Wiring Considerations
Ordinary thermostat wire is recommended. Use 22 AWG or larger for normal wiring applications. Continuous wire lengths over 100 ft. should use 20 AWG or larger.
NOTE : ABCD bus wiring only requires a four-wire connection; however, it is good practice to run a thermostat cable having more than four wires in the event of a damaged or broken wire during installation.
Each communicating device in the Infinity System has a four-pin connector labeled ABCD. It is recommended that the following color code be used when wiring each device:

A — Green = Data A
B — Yellow = Data B
C — White = 24VAC (Com)
D — Red = 24VAC (Hot)

It is not mandatory that the above color code be used, but each ABCD connector in the system MUST be wired consistently.
Shielded Wire
If the thermostat wiring will be located near or in parallel with high voltage wiring, cable TV or Ethernet wiring, then shielded thermostat wire can be used to reduce or eliminate potential interference. The shield wire should be connected to the C terminal, or ground, at the indoor unit. The shield wire should NOT be connected to any terminal at the user interface. Connecting the shield to ground at both ends can cause current loops in the shield, reducing shield effectiveness.

Mounting Infinity Control

First become familiar with all plastic assembly pieces shown in Figures 3 through 10. The User Interface will snap together with the backplate.
A backplate is supplied (see Fig. 4 and 5). Attach backplate using only a small hole in the wall allowing a four wire connection to pass through. Mount the assembly to the backplate.
NOTE : Once Infinity Control is secured to wall with the backplate assembly (snapped together), care must be taken not to bend or break the interlocking tabs when removing.

Decorative Backplate
Sold separately, a thin decorative backplate (see Fig. 6 and 9) is available to hide any marks/screw holes left from the previous thermostat. This decorative backplate (or beauty ring) is used by snapping it onto the back of the mounting plate before securing the plate to the wall.

WARNING

ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury, death or equipment damage.
Before installing, modifying, or servicing system, the main electrical disconnect switch must be in the OFF position. There may be more than 1 disconnect switch. Lockout and tag switch with a suitable warning label.

  1. Turn off all power to equipment.

  2. If an existing User Interface or control is being replaced:
    a. Remove existing control from wall.
    b. Disconnect wires from existing control.
    c. Discard or recycle old control.
    NOTE : Mercury is a hazardous waste, if existing control contains any mercury, it MUST be disposed of properly. The User Interface does not contain mercury.

  3. Select Infinity Control mounting plastic (recess mount or surface mount and decorative backplate if desired).

  4. Route wires through large hole in mounting plastic. Level rear plastic against wall (for aesthetic value only — Infinity Control need not be level to operate properly) and mark wall through two mounting holes.

  5. Drill two 3/16–in (4.8 mm) mounting holes in wall where marked.

  6. Secure mounting plastic to wall using two screws and anchors provided.

  7. Adjust length and routing of each wire to reach each wire entry on the connector backplate. Strip 1/4–in (6.4 mm) of insulation from each wire.

  8. Match and connect thermostat wires to proper terminals on User Interface backplate. See wiring diagram Fig. 11, 12, and 13.

ABCD

CAUTION

ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage or improper operation.
Improper wiring of the ABCD connector will cause the Infinity System to operate improperly. Check to make sure all wiring is correct before proceeding with installation or turning on power.

9. Push any excess wire into the wall. Seal hole in wall to prevent any air leaks. Leaks can affect operation.
10. Attach Infinity Control to the mounting plastic by lining up the plastic guides on the back of the control with the opening on the mounting plastic and push on.
11. Perform installation of all other system equipment (i.e. dampers, humidifier, ventilator, UV lights, etc.).
12. Turn on power to equipment.

See wiring diagram, Fig. 11, which includes an indoor communicating furnace or FE fan coil, with a communicating outdoor unit. No additional OAT (outdoor air temperature) sensor is required because the Infinity Control will use the temperature sensor inside the outdoor unit.

See wiring diagram, Fig. 12, for connecting an indoor communicating furnace or FE fan coil with a 1–stage air conditioning unit (non–communicating outdoor). An Outdoor Air Temperature (OAT) sensor may be installed (but is not required) at the indoor furnace or fan coil OAT terminals. When OAT sensor is applied, the Infinity System will provide enhanced system features and benefits.

See wiring diagram, Fig. 13, for connecting an FE fan coil with a 1–stage heat pump (non–communicating outdoor unit). When OAT is applied, the Infinity System will provide enhanced system features and benefits.

In a hybrid heat installation with a non–communicating heat pump, an OAT sensor must be installed, or the heat pump with not run. NOTE: For other applications not listed, refer to the Network Interface Module (NIM) Installation Instructions.

Humidifier Connection

A 24VAC bypass or fan powered humidifier may be installed. NOTE: Do Not Use a traditional humidistat to control humidifier operation. If a humidifier is installed, let the Infinity Control operate humidifier.
Bypass Humidifiers
A bypass humidifier should be wired directly to the furnace or fan coil HUM and 24VAC COM terminals. The Infinity Control will automatically energize the HUM output during a call for humidification.

Fan Powered Humidifiers
Most fan-powered humidifiers produce internal 24VAC in order to energize upon a switch or contact closure. For this application, a 24VAC N.O. Isolation Relay (DPST) MUST be used to prevent mixing the internal humidifier power with the indoor equipment transformer. Applying 24VAC isolation relay coil to furnace or fan coil HUM and COM terminals will allow the Infinity Control to automatically energize the HUM output during a call for humidification. The N.O. relay contacts will be used to energize the humidifier. See fan-powered humidifier installation instructions for more details.

CAUTION

EQUIPMENT HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage. Do not apply 24VAC fan-powered humidifier (with internal power supply) direct to indoor unit HUM and COM terminals.

INITIAL POWER-UP

NOTE: Refer to Functional Overview (see Fig. 15) to become familiar with key function buttons such as “System On/Off,” “Fan,” “Left–Side” and “Right– Side” buttons, etc. These function buttons will be used frequently during setup.

Carrier Infinity Control Thermostat - Fig. 15 -- Functional
Overview

Power-Up Sequence

This section addresses initial power-up (or commissioning) of a new Infinity Control. The User Interface will communicate and identify all Infinity components in the system. The following is a typical example for a communicating Variable–Speed Furnace /Fan Coil with a 2–stage Air Conditioner / Heat Pump (including Hybrid Heat).
The User Interface display will light up and indicate that it is now “ESTABLISHING COMMUNICATIONS WITH EQUIPMENT PLEASE WAIT”. The User Interface will automatically continue by “SEARCHING FOR EQUIPMENT”, followed by “SEARCHING FOR OUTDOOR EQUIPMENT” (see Fig. 16). Once the indoor and outdoor equipment has been found, the Installer will be asked to select Accessories. Packaged Products will be automatically identified and the Installer will be asked to select Accessories. Proceed to Selecting Accessories.

Carrier Infinity Control Thermostat - Fig. 16 -- Power Up
Sequence

NOTE : If the variable–speed indoor equipment (furnace or fan coil) cannot be found, the User Interface will display “CANNOT COMMUNICATE WITH INDOOR UNIT”. This MUST be corrected before the initial power-up sequence can continue. If indoor unit is found, but outdoor unit is not found, “OUTDOOR UNIT NOT IDENTIFIED” will appear. Proceed to the next section for Outdoor Unit Identification.
Selecting Outdoor Unit
If there is no communicating outdoor unit, the screen, shown in Fig. 17, will appear. Press either Left or Right Up/Down button to select AC (air conditioner), HP (heat pump), or None (no unit installed). Press right–side button to continue to next screen. If either AC or HP has been selected as the outdoor unit type, the middle screen will appear (see Fig. 17). Press either Left or Right Up/Down button to select appropriate BTU size of outdoor unit, then press right side button to continue. If a NIM (Network Interface Module) is applied for non–communicating two-stage outdoor equipment, select 1 or 2–stage compressor operation, and press right–side button to continue.

NOTE : Range of electric heaters available is limited by model number of the equipment installed. The Infinity Control will not allow an electric heater size that is not supported by the installed equipment.
Hydronic Heat Applications
The Infinity Control supports 2 types of Hydronic Heat applications:
1. Hot water coil in combination with an FE fan coil and heat pump, or hot water coil as sole heat source with an FE fan coil.
2. Non–zoned FE fan coil combined with radiant hot water heat.

In either application, a Hydronic Heat kit should be installed in place of an electric heater. See FE fan coil Product Data for accessory part number. The system will identify that Hydonic Heat has been installed during the initial commissioning process. The system will treat the hot water coil as either auxiliary heat in a heat pump application, or the sole heat source. Setup options for Hydronic Heat applications are described in the Setup section of this instruction.

Selecting Accessories

Once the indoor and outdoor equipment have been found or entered, the following screens will appear allowing the Installer to select the “AIR FILTER TYPE; HUMIDIFIER INSTALLED”; and “UV LIGHTS INSTALLED” (See Fig. 19).

Furnace Airflow:

  • COMFORT (default)
  • EFFICIENCY

Selects the airflow of the furnace when heating. EFFICIENCY is the airflow used to meet specified ratings, COMFORT is a decreased airflow used to increase the output air temperature and provide increased comfort.
Cooling Airflow:

  • COMFORT (default) — cooling airflow is varied depending on humidity and temperature demands settings. This selection enables the full dehumidify and comfort capabilities of the system. When COMFORT is not selected, the unit will not run reduced airflows for dehumidification.
  • EFF 325 — fixed airflow used to achieve specified ratings — no dehumidification airflow reduction. This is nominally 325 CFM/ton, but will vary if a 2–stage outdoor unit is used.
  • EFF 350 — fixed airflow used to achieve specified ratings — no dehumidification airflow reduction. This is nominally 350 CFM/ton, but will vary if a 2–stage outdoor unit is used.
  • MAXIMUM — 400 CFM/ton. No dehumidification airflow reduction.
  • QUIET– minimum cooling airflow that the system can safely run (typically 300 CFM/ton). Use this setting if duct noise is a severe problem. Note that duct sweating in high humidity environments could be an issue.

Heat Pump Heating:

  • COMFORT (default) Heat Pump airflow is varied depending on outdoor temperature to maximize comfort.
  • EFF 325 — Fixed airflow used to achieve specified ratings . This is nominally 325 CFM/ton, but will vary if a 2–stage outdoor unit is used.
  • EFF 350 — Fixed airflow used to achieve specified ratings . This is nominally 350 CFM/ton, but will vary if a 2–stage outdoor unit is used.
  • MAXIMUM — 400 CFM/ton.

Heat Pump Cooling:

  • COMFORT (default) — cooling airflow is varied depending on humidity and temperature demands settings. This selection enables the full dehumidify and comfort capabilities of the system. When COMFORT is not selected, the unit will not run reduced airflows for dehumidification.
  • EFF 325 — fixed airflow used to achieve specified ratings — no dehumidification airflow reduction. This is nominally 325 CFM/ton, but will vary if a 2–stage outdoor unit is used.
  • EFF 350 — fixed airflow used to achieve specified ratings — no dehumidification airflow reduction. This is nominally 350 CFM/ton, but will vary if a 2–stage outdoor unit is used.
  • MAXIMUM — 400 CFM/ton. No dehumidification airflow reduction.
  • QUIET– minimum cooling airflow that the system can safely run (typically 300 CFM/ton). Use this setting if duct noise is a severe problem. Note that duct sweating in high humidity environments could be an issue.

Dehum Airflow:

  • NORMAL (factory default) — When equipment is running to dehumidify, the airflow is allowed to adjust to a minimum to satisfy the dehumidification call.
  • HIGH — Minimum airflow during the dehumidify mode is increased to reduce duct and register sweating.

Low Heat Rise

  • ON
  • OFF (default)

Set to ON if the system contains a bypass humidifier. The ON setting will increase the furnace low heat airflow.
Staging

  • SYSTEM (default)
  • LOW
  • LOW–MED
  • LOW–HIGH
  • MEDIUM
  • MED–HIGH
  • HIGH
  • FURNACE

NOTE : Controls the staging of the furnace. More staging options will be available if furnace is capable of more stages. SYSTEM setting will allow the Infinity Control to determine furnace staging.
LOW will only run the low stage of furnace heat. LOW–MED will run the low and medium stages (2 stages of heat). MED will only run the medium stage of heat. MED–HIGH will run the medium and high stages (2 stages of heat). HIGH will only run the high stage of furnace heat.
G Terminal
This setup option selects desired operation when the R–G circuit changes state on the furnace control board depending on setup.

  • DISABLED (Default)
  • FAN — turns on fan to selected fan speed when G terminal is energized. See Fig. 26. This setting is used in conjunction with fresh air supply products (e.g. fresh air/make–up air dampers).
  • FAN SPEED — select Low, Med, High for all zones when G terminal is energized
  • SHUTDOWN — shuts off fan and equipment when initiated. This function is not intended for emergency fire shutdown. It may be activated by a dry contact from an external device such as a float switch or a relay. User Interface displays SYSTEM MALFUNCTION on screen and registers G terminal shutdown event in Last 10 System Events. See Fig. 27.

Setup -Fan Coil

Heat Pump Heating:

  • COMFORT (default) Heat Pump airflow is varied depending on outdoor temperature to maximize comfort.
  • EFF 325 — Fixed airflow used to achieve specified ratings. This is nominally 325 CFM/ton, but will vary if a 2–stage outdoor unit is used.
  • EFF 350 — Fixed airflow used to achieve specified ratings. This is nominally 350 CFM/ton, but will vary if a 2–stage outdoor unit is used.
  • MAXIMUM — 400 CFM/ton.

Heat Pump Cooling Airflow:

  • COMFORT (default) Cooling airflow is varied depending on humidity and temperature demand settings. This selection enables the full dehumidify and comfort capabilities of the system. When COMFORT is not selected, the unit will not run reduced airflows for dehumidification. Heat Pump airflow is varied depending on outdoor temperature to maximize comfort.
  • EFF 325 — fixed airflow used to achieve specified ratings – no dehumidification airflow reduction. This is nominally 325 CFM/ton, but will vary if a 2–stage outdoor unit is used.
  • EFF 350 — fixed airflow used to achieve specified ratings — no dehumidification airflow reduction. This is nominally 350 CFM/ton, but will vary if a 2–stage outdoor unit is used.
  • MAXIMUM — 400 CFM/ton. No dehumidification airflow reduction.
  • QUIET– minimum cooling airflow that the system can safely run (typically 300 CFM/ton). Use this setting if duct noise is a severe problem. Note that duct sweating in high humidity environments could be an issue.

Dehum Airflow:

  • NORMAL (factory default) — When equipment is running to dehumidify, the airflow is allowed to adjust to a minimum to satisfy the dehumidification call.
  • HIGH — Minimum airflow during the dehumidify mode is increased to reduce duct and register sweating. Also increases minimum airflow during normal cooling operation to reduce duct sweating.

Heater Size:

  • (choices dependent upon fan coil model)

This will show the heater size entered during the start–up process. This value can be changed to another value (limited by the model number of the fan coil). If the electric heater is self–identifying, this value is not shown.
Elect Heat Lockout

  • NONE (default)
  • +5 to 55_F (–15 to 13_C)

Outside temperature above which the electric heat will not operate except for defrost.
G Terminal
This setup option selects desired operation when the R–G circuit changes state on the fan coil control board depending on setup.

  • DISABLED (Default)
  • FAN — turns on fan to selected fan speed when G terminal is energized. See Fig. 26. This setting is used in conjunction with fresh air supply products (e.g. fresh air make–up air dampers).
  • FAN SPEED — select Low, Med, High for all zones when G terminal is energized
  • SHUTDOWN — shuts off fan and equipment when initiated. This function is not intended for emergency fire shutdown. It may be activated by a dry contact from an external device such as a float switch or a relay. User selects whether the contact is NC — normally closed (default) or NO — normally open. User Interface displays SYSTEM MALFUNCTION on screen and registers G terminal shutdown event in Last 10 System Events.  See Fig. 27.

Dehum Drain
Turns off the continuous fan at the end of cooling for five minutes in order to drain the indoor coil of water. The fan will only be turned off if a dehumidify demand existed at the start of or during the cooling cycle. Default is enabled.
Reheat Dehum
Enables electric heat to be used while Cool to Dehumidify is running. This will allow the Cool to Dehumidify function to run much longer, greatly improving humidity control in cooling mode. Accumulated electrical energy used while reheating (in kilowatt–hours) is shown on the Fan Coil Run Hours screen and can be reset there. This is only available with fan coil systems.

Setup — Heat Pump / AC
Cooling Lockout:

  • NONE (default)

  • DISABLE (disable use of high heat stage)

Max Heat RPM (Appears with variable capacity heat pump)
Clamps the operating speed of the heat pump to this maximum. Used to reduce operating noise while in high heating capacity. Reducing this value will reduce the heating capacity of the heat pump.

Heat Pump Airflow (Capacity) Limiting
The following settings allow the installer to restrict the heat pump within certain minimum and maximum airflows. These airflows are converted to capacities. The Min and Max limits are determined by the equipment size.

Min CFM (only appears with variable capacity heat pump) Minimum CFM to run a variable capacity heat pump. This will increase the minimum operating capacity of the heat pump. Default value is the heat pump air flow for the lowest heat capacity. Maximum CFM (only appears with variable capacity heat pump) Maximum CFM to run a variable capacity heat pump This will reduce the operating capacity of the heat pump. Default value is the heat pump air flow for the highest heat capacity.

Lo Air Multiplier
Adjusts the low airflow speed on non–communicating two–stage
units. Choose 0.65 for units with a Bristol compressor, choose 0.80
(default) for units with a Copeland scroll compressor.

OPERATIONAL INFORMATION
Continuous Fan Operation
Pressing FAN button will scroll through the following:

  • AUTO = No fan operation except during equipment operation.
  • LOW = Approximately 50% of High Speed operation.
  • MED = Half way between High and Low speed operation.
  • HIGH = Highest of either High Heating or High Cooling CFM.

Continuous fan operation is programmable. The programming option must be enabled in the Thermostat Setup. See the Homeowner’s Manual for detailed instructions on programming the fan.
Five–Minute Compressor Timeguard
This timer prevents compressor from starting unless it has been off for at least 5 minutes. It can be defeated by simultaneously pressing the Fan and Right Up buttons. Emergency Heat (for heat pump applications)
To activate Emergency Heat, you must press and hold the HEAT button for 3 seconds to activate. Repeat to deactivate.
Heat Source Selection (Hybrid or Hydronic Heat)
If user wishes to override normal operation in Hybrid Heat or Hydronic Heat applications, press and hold the heat button for 3 seconds to select desired heat source.
Keypad Lockout
Keypad can be locked by pressing “Fan” and “Humidity/Oat” buttons at the same time for 3 seconds. When keys are locked, a lock symbol will appear in the upper left corner of screen. Follow same procedure to unlock keypad.
Heat and Cool LED
The Heat and Cool LEDs will pulsate during actual equipment operation. This can be defeated in the Advanced Setup Screens.

Equipment Cycle Timer (adjustable 4–6 cycles per hour)
This timer prevents the start of a heating or cooling cycle until 15 (or 10) minutes after the last start of the same cycle. Its function is to assure that the equipment is not cycled more than the selected times per hour. This timer is adjustable from 4 to 6 cycles per hour. This timer is defeated for one cycle when the desired temperature is manually changed. It can also be defeated for one cycle by simultaneously pressing the Fan and Right Up buttons.
Staging Timer
In multistage heating or cooling, this timer prevents any higher stage from turning on until the preceding stage has been on for 10 minutes.
For furnace heating, the high stage timer is adjustable to force longer minimum low stage run time. See Furnace Setup for details.
A demand of 5_ or more will override the staging timer and allow higher stages to energize.
In Hybrid Heat, the staging timer is 15 minutes between heat pump and gas furnace operation. This timer is adjustable in the Hybrid Heat Setup menu to force longer minimum heat pump run time and longer low-stage furnace run time. A demand of 5F or more will override the staging timer and allow higher stages to energize.
Three–Minute Minimum On-Time
In normal operation, when a stage turns on, it will remain on for a minimum of three minutes. If the setpoint is changed, this timer is automatically cancelled, allowing the equipment to turn off immediately when the demand is removed.
Heat/Cool setpoints (Desired Temperatures)
A minimum difference of 2
(default) is enforced between heating and cooling desired temperatures. This is done by allowing one setting to “push” the other to maintain this difference. This difference is adjustable via the Install/Service menu under Thermostat Setup.
Temperature Display
The actual temperature displayed is always rounded toward the setpoint. This is because the system is operating and measuring the temperature in sixteenths of a degree, but displaying in whole numbers. The system may be turned off and on within .5_ of setpoint, but the display may not change. This is by design and does not indicate a problem with the control.
Auto Changeover
When Auto mode is enabled (factory default) a change from heat to cool (or vice versa) will not occur until an opposite mode demand has existed for 30 minutes. If the setpoint is changed, the 30–minute requirement is defeated. This Auto Changeover time is adjustable via the Install/Service menu under Thermostat Setup.
Range = 5 — 120 min.
Smart Recovery
With Smart Recovery selected (factory default), transition out of setback begins 1.5 hours before selected recovery time and gradually adjusts room temperature so desired temperature will be achieved at selected recovery time. It operates in both heating and cooling. This only applies to programmable operations.
For example: Set back temperature in heating is 64_F. Smart Recovery setpoint is 70_F at 7:00 a.m. At 5:30 a.m., the control calculates the required temperature recovery rate (recovery temp — set back temp or current temp if greater) / 90 minutes. If the current temp at 5:30 = 66_F, the recovery rate = (70 — 66)F/90 minutes = 0.04 per minute. In order to achieve setpoint, the control ramps up the setpoint 0.04_F / minute from 5:30 a.m. until 7:00 a.m. This changing setpoint is displayed while it is occurring.
NOTE : Temperatures should not be set back so far that the equipment cannot recover in 90 minutes.

Air Filter
If AIR FILTER or AIR PURIFIER is installed in the indoor unit, the system will perform a static pressure check of the system every 24 hours at 1:00 p.m. to monitor filter accumulation (TrueSenset Dirty Filter Detection) or whenever power is applied to the system or the system is transitioned from Off to Cool or Heat modes. The blower will run at a medium airflow for one minute. This system operates by setting a base line static pressure based on the highest airflow the system could run (this could be heat or cool airflow). The measurement is taken at a low airflow and then calculated up to the highest airflow the system could see.

Frozen Coil Detection
During cooling operation, the User Interface will monitor the static pressure of the system. If the static pressure is increasing dramatically, the User Interface will turn off cooling for up to one hour, record fault in the “Last 10 Events” screen, and run the fan at a reduced airflow. The User Interface will continue to monitor the static pressure. If it is reduced before one hour has elapsed, it will resume cooling operation. After one hour, cooling will be resumed.

Dehumidify Operation
Once a target cooling humidity setpoint is selected in the Advanced Setup COOLING HUMIDITY screen, two other setup options affect Dehumidify operation: COOLING AIRFLOW and DEHUMIDIFY.

COOLING AIRFLOW: Setting this to COMFORT or QUIET will enable the system to use low airflow to help dehumidify the space. If duct sweating becomes an issue, setting DEHUM AIRFLOW to HIGH may resolve the problem. DEHUMIDIFY: Located in the Cooling Humidity screen of the Advanced Setup, this option has 2 settings: ON and OFF. If DEHUMIDIFY is set to ON (factory default), then the cooling unit will be allowed to overcome the space up to 3_F (2_C) if the humidity level is above the cooling humidity target setpoint. The amount of overcooling allowed varies with the dehumidification demand, the cooling demand, and the actual space temperature. More overcooling is allowed with greater dehumidification demand.

When the space temperature is at or above 75_F (24_C) and the dehumidify demand is high, overcooling up to 3_F (2_C) is allowed. As the space temperature approaches 70_F (21_C), less overcooling is allowed. At 70_F (21_C) space temperature, no more overcooling is allowed no matter how great the dehumidify demand. This is done to protect the equipment. If DEHUMIDIFY is set to OFF and Cooling Airflow is set to COMFORT, normal dehumidification mode is enabled. For normal dehumidification, no overcooling is allowed when the cooling humidity is above the target setpoint, but airflow will be reduced during a normal cooling mode to reduce humidity. The airflow depends on the amount of dehumidifying demand. If Cooling Airflow is set to EFFICIENCY or MAXIMUM, only Dehumidify (overcooling to dehumidify) will be performed.

Hybrid Heat Setup / Operation
Furnace Lockout — (in HYBRID HEAT SETUP menu) is the outside temperature above which the furnace will not run except for defrost (otherwise known as the aux heat lockout).
Heat Pump Lockout — (in HYBRID HEAT SETUP) is the outside temperature below which the heat pump will not run (otherwise known as the balance point).

These values can be set identical to each other. If they are not identical, the system will stage up and down normally from heat pump to furnace when the outside temperature is between these settings. The User Interface will not allow the heat pump lockout setting to be above the furnace lockout setting.

The factory default settings for both of these is NONE (no lockouts). Even though a heat pump lockout temperature may be set, the system will still use the furnace in defrost operation, and may stage back down to heat pump when defrost is completed after a2minutedelay.

Hybrid Heat Defrost — (in HYBRID HEAT SETUP) When the outdoor unit needs a defrost cycle, the furnace will run during defrost regardless of lockout temperature, unless told not to in the Hybrid Heat Setup screen. After defrost, the system may stage down to heat pump after a 2-minute delay.

If the room temperature falls below 40_F (4_C) and a furnace lockout is in enabled, the furnace lockout will be overridden to bring on the furnace.

Service Tool Mode
The –V model of user interface software version 21 can be used as a service tool on any Infinity system. Attach the –V model user interface anywhere on the ABCD wiring (e.g. at the indoor or outdoor unit). When the user interface powers up, it will ask the user if they wish to enter service mode. Selecting “Yes” will allow the –V model user interface to take over as the system controller, putting the regular system user interface to sleep. The screen on the regular user interface will display “IN SERVICE MODE”. The –V model user interface will then learn all equipment and function as the system controller. While in service mode, the –V model user interface will not transfer any settings or information to or from the regular user interface—-it only takes over control of the system. After removing the –V model user interface from the ABCD wiring, the regular user interface will take over the system after two minutes.
Outdoor Unit
The code number represents flash code on circuit board of outdoor unit.

Is there a battery in a Carrier thermostat?

When using batteries for power, we recommend that you replace the batteries at the one bar level with two AA alkaline batteries.  They’re in the back of the thermostat , so you’ll have to remove it from the wall.

Will low batteries affect thermostat?

When low batteries eventually die, you’ll see a black display screen,  the thermostat will stop working and your heating or cooling units won’t function. The heating and cooling system cannot respond to nonexistent temperature commands.

What is the most common thermostat setting?

A universal guideline for a normal summer thermostat setting is  78° F. However, this condition should be set for when you’re at home during the daytime. For optimal comfort to cost ratio, your home thermostat temperature range will vary throughout the day.

Do you have to reset thermostat after changing batteries?

Power off the thermostat and remove the batteries. Put the batteries in the wrong way, with negative to positive and positive to negative. Wait ten seconds and put them back in the correct way. Your thermostat will be reset to factory settings.

Why does my thermostat setting not match my home’s temperature?

Poor air flow, bad sensors, or other broken components  can also cause room temperatures to be different than your thermostat setting. The biggest clue that your furnace is the culprit is your heating bill.

Do thermostats need to be calibrated?

Usually, you don’t need to calibrate a digital thermostat too often , but occasionally, your system might be a little off. Calibrating the thermostat can make it more accurate again. Most digital thermostats are calibrated at the manufacturer, and you don’t need to calibrate them again.

How long do batteries last in a thermostat?

Thermostat batteries can last for  8-12 months but some can last up to five years. Low batteries in thermostats are common problems that may lead to the inefficiency of your home’s heating and cooling system. Most programmable thermostats show a low battery symbol when the batteries start running low.

What is a good winter thermostat setting?

The ideal thermostat temperature in the winter is  68 degrees Fahrenheit when you’re at home. Energy.gov suggests that 68 degrees is a good room temperature while you’re awake at home but recommends lowering it while you’re asleep or away.

Is 72 too high for thermostat in winter?

It’s best to not set your thermostat lower than 70 to 72 degrees. Most units are not designed to cool a house below that point, and you risk the system freezing up.

Why is my thermostat reading lower than setting?

As with any piece of technology, the thermostat may become faulty from time to time. This affects its ability to assess the temperature accurately. Due to these technical glitches, the thermostat could indicate a lower (or higher) number than the actual temperature.
