White Rodgers 1F78-144 Non Programmable Thermostat Instruction Manual Overview

Summary of Contents

  • Page 1: Preparations Assemble tools required below. Failure to follow and read all instructions carefully before installing or operating this control could cause personal injury and/or property damage. Removing Old Thermostat To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment damage, disconnect electrical power to the system at the main fuse or circuit breaker until installation is complete. Before removing wires from old thermostat’s switching subbase, label each wire with the terminal designation it was removed from. A standard heat/cool thermostat consists of three basic parts: the cover, the base, and the switching subbase. Shut off electricity at the main fuse box until installation is complete. Ensure that electrical power is disconnected. Identify each wire attached to the old thermostat using the labels enclosed with the new thermostat. Disconnect the wires from the old thermostat one at a time. Do not let wires fall back into the wall. Install new thermostat using the following procedures.
  • Page 2: Caution: Take care when securing and routing wires to avoid shorting adjacent terminals or the rear of the thermostat. Removing old thermostat: This product does not contain mercury, but may replace a unit that does. Terminal cross reference chart: Includes designations for new thermostats and other manufacturers. Mounting and wiring: Ensure the factory-installed jumper wire between RH and RC terminals remains in place. Warning: Do not use on circuits exceeding specified voltage to prevent damage and hazards. Attach thermostat base to wall: Remove packing material and gently pull the cover straight off the base. Electric heat or single-stage heat pump systems: The thermostat is configured to operate a heat/cool, fossil fuel forced air system. Battery location: This thermostat requires 2 “AAA” alkaline batteries to operate. Hydronic heating systems: The thermostat must be set to operate properly with hot water or steam systems. Factory default setting: The thermostat cycles the system just under 1°F, with adjustments available for hydronic systems.
  • Page 3: Mounting and wiring Typical wiring diagram for heat only, 3-wire, single transformer systems Typical wiring diagram for heat/cool, 5-wire, two-transformer systems Typical wiring diagram for cool only, 3-wire, single transformer systems Typical wiring diagram for heat pump with reversing valve energized in COOL Typical wiring diagram for heat pump with reversing valve energized in HEAT Check thermostat operation This thermostat has a time delay between cooling cycles to allow the head pressure in the compressor to stabilize. To prevent static discharge problems, touch side of thermostat to release static build-up before touching any keys. If at any time during testing your system does not operate properly, contact a qualified service person.
  • Page 4: Check thermostat operation Before you begin using your thermostat, you should be familiar with its features and with the display and the location and operation of the thermostat buttons. Your thermostat consists of two parts: the thermostat cover and the base. To remove the cover, gently pull it straight out from the base. To replace the cover, line up the cover with the base and press gently until the cover snaps onto the base. The thermostat buttons and switches include temperature setting arrows, a fan switch, and a system switch. The display shows the current temperature and the currently set temperature. You can enter both your heating and cooling setpoints at the same time. Your new thermostat has been accurately set in the factory, but you may adjust the temperature display to match your old thermostat. The factory default setting is Fahrenheit, but it can be altered to Celsius. The display backlight improves display contrast in low lighting conditions.
  • Page 5: SPECIFICATIONS Electrical Rating: 0 to 30 VAC 50/60 Hz or D.C. Setpoint Temperature Range: 45°F to 90°F (7°C to 32°C) Operating Ambient Temperature Range: 32°F to 105°F (0°C to 41°C) Operating Humidity Range: 0 to 90% RH (non-condensing) Shipping Temperature Range: -40°F to 150°F (-40°C to 66°C) TROUBLESHOOTING If a voltage spike or static discharge blanks out the display or causes erratic thermostat operation, you can reset the thermostat. For best results, replace batteries once a year with new premium brand alkaline batteries. No Heat/No Cool/No Fan: Common problems include blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker. Pilot light not lit: Re-light pilot. Furnace Lock-Out Condition: Heat may also be intermittent; contact the furnace manufacturer or local service person for assistance.
  • Page 6: Troubleshooting Heat, cool or fan runs constantly. Possible causes include a short in wiring, thermostat, or heat/cool/fan system. Check wire connections and reset the thermostat. If the issue persists, consult the manufacturer or a service person. Furnace cycles too fast or too slow. Digital thermostats may cycle faster than older models. To increase cycle time, clip Jumper W-905. If issues continue, contact a local service person. Cooling cycles too fast or too slow. The cycle rate for cooling is fixed and cannot be adjusted. Consult a local service person for suggestions. Thermostat setting and thermostat thermometer disagree. The thermometer can be adjusted +/- 3 degrees. Blank display and/or keypad not responding. Possible causes include a voltage spike or the need for a battery change. Replace batteries and check the heat/cool system for proper operation.
  • Page 7: Solución de problemas El modo de calor, frío o ventilador funciona de manera constante. Verifique todas las conexiones de los cables para asegurarse de que no estén en cortocircuito o tocándose entre sí. Intente reajustar el termostato como se describe más arriba. Si la condición persiste, el fabricante de su sistema o el personal técnico podrá indicarle cómo probar si el sistema de frío/calor está funcionando correctamente. Los ciclos de la caldera son demasiado cortos o demasiado largos. Normalmente, los termostatos digitales proporcionan un control preciso de la temperatura. Si desea aumentar la duración del ciclo, corte el cable de puente W-905. La duración del ciclo de refrigeración es fija y no se puede ajustar. El valor del termómetro del termostato requiere ajuste. La pantalla está en blanco y/o el teclado no responde.
  • Page 8: Especificaciones Datos eléctricos Características eléctricas: 0 a 30 VCA 50/60 hz. o D.C. Rango de temperaturas de referencia: 45°F a 90°F (7°C a 32°C) Temperatura ambiente operativa: 32°F a 105°F (0ºC a 41ºC) Humedad operativa: 0 a 90% HR (sin condensación) Temperatura de transporte: -40°F a 150°F (-40ºC a 66ºC) Solución de problemas Si un pico de voltaje o una descarga estática pone en blanco la pantalla, puede reajustar el termostato. Para obtener resultados óptimos, cambie las pilas una vez al año por pilas alcalinas nuevas. El sistema no calienta/enfría: verifique el fusible, el interruptor de alimentación y las conexiones. Condición de bloqueo de la caldera puede causar calefacción intermitente. Si el termostato no hace un chasquido después de reajustarlo, póngase en contacto con el servicio técnico.
  • Page 9: Verifique el funcionamiento del termostato. Antes de usar su termostato, familiarícese con sus funciones y la ubicación de los diferentes botones. Su termostato consta de dos partes: la cubierta del termostato y la base. Para retirar la cubierta, tire suavemente de ella para separarla de la base. Los botones e interruptores del termostato incluyen opciones para ajustar la temperatura y el sistema de calefacción/refrigeración. La pantalla muestra la temperatura actual y la temperatura programada. Puede ajustar la pantalla de temperatura de su termostato dentro de un rango de 3°F. La luz de fondo mejora el contraste de la pantalla en condiciones de poca luz. El ajuste predeterminado de fábrica es en grados Fahrenheit, pero se puede cambiar a grados Celsius. Si las pilas tienen poca carga, la pantalla mostrará un mensaje indicando que deben cambiarse.
