Cool Minimum On The number of minutes the thermostat forces the cooling system to remain on before turning off. Raising this number will increase the total time the cooling system is on (saving energy), but may allow the temperature to drift farther from setpoint (decreasing comfort). When combined with Cool Minimum Off, cycles per hours can be obtained by using the following calculation: 60 / (Cool Minimum On + Cool Minimum Off). The default time is 6 minutes. Cool Minimum Off The number of minutes the thermostat forces the cooling system to remain off before starting again. Raising this number will increase the total time that the cooling system is off (saving energy), but may allow the temperature to drift farther from the setpoint (decreasing comfort). When combined with Cool Minimum On, cycles per hours can be obtained by using the following calculation: 60 / (Cool Minimum On + Cool Minimum Off). The default time is 6 minutes. Heat Minimum On The number of minutes the thermostat forces the heat to remain on before turning off. Raising this number will increase the total time the heating system is on (saving energy), but may allow the temperature to drift farther from the setpoint (decreasing comfort). When combined with Heat Minimum Off, cycles per hours can be obtained by using the following calculation: 60 / (Heat Minimum On + Heat Minimum off). The default time is 6 minutes. Heat Minimum Off The number of minutes the thermostat forces the heat to remain off before starting again. Raising this number will increase the total time that the heating system is off (saving energy), but may allow the temperature to drift farther from the setpoint (decreasing comfort). When combined with Heat Minimum On, cycles per hours can be obtained by using the following calculation: 60 / (Heat Minimum On + Heat Minimum off). The default time is 6 minutes. Stage Settings When configured as a heat pump thermostat, by default the RC-1000 is configures for two states of heat (auxiliary heat is included in this number). If the heat pump is not equipped with auxiliary heat, the Heat Stages setting may be set to one (in this configuration, auxiliary will never be used). EEC Control The EEC Settings are used to configure Heat and Cool Energy Efficient Control and the Auxiliary Heat Differential (when configured as a heat pump thermostat). EEC: This item configures Energy Efficient Control (EEC). EEC continually monitors the performance of the HVAC system and uses a PID algorithm and auto balance routine to achieve comfort while saving energy. A setting of 0 will disable EEC. When EEC is disabled, the RC-1000 will attempt to maintain the temperature within 0.5 degrees F of the setpoint. A lower setting of 2-3 can be used for slow reacting sources (e.g. radiant heat) and higher setting of 7-8 for fast reacting sources (e.g. forced air). The default setting is 5. On heat pump systems, EEC allows the RC-1000 to use auxiliary heat only when necessary. If it determines that the heat pump is able to heat at a rate of 5 degrees per hour or better, the auxiliary heat will not be used. If the heat pump is unable to heat at this rate, the thermostat will use the auxiliary heat as needed. Under these conditions, the heat pump will run continuously and the auxiliary heat will cycle on and off as needed. Auxiliary Heat Differential: This determines how far from the setpoint the temperature has to be before the auxiliary heat turns on. This is only available for heat pump systems. Start Delay (Minutes): This item sets the minimum amount of time the heating system must run before the Auxiliary Heat Stage is used. To use this start delay, EEC must be enabled and Hold must be off.

As humans, we perceive temperature as a combination of heat in the air and heat radiated from the walls and surroundings. The thermostat also measures a combination of air and wall temperature. When heating, the air temperature rises faster than the wall temperature. The thermostat will turn the heat off briefly to prevent overheating the air while the wall temperature catches up. When cooling, the thermostat will periodically run the cooling system to circulate the air and remove humidity when the temperature is close to, but not above the desired cool setting. Because of the PID algorithm and auto balance routine which monitors the performance of the HVAC system, the anticipator settings are automatic by default. However, the anticipator settings may be adjusted if desired. Heat Anticipator: This adjusts the tendency of the thermostat to turn the heating u...
