This thermostat has been tested and found to comply with the requirements of the European Union for Electromagnetic Interference, Electromagnetic Immunity and Safety under the applicable EMI and Low Voltage Directives and Standards. This thermostat has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. This product generates and can radiate radio frequency energy. Due to its low power design, it is unlikely to interfere with radio and TV communications. If it is suspected of doing so, the user is encouraged to try to correct the problem by reorienting the receiver's antenna, moving the receiver away from the product, or consulting an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Your thermostat will provide you with comfort, convenience, and energy savings for years to come. We hope that you take a few moments to become familiar with all of the features of this fine product by reviewing this manual. Please keep this manual on file for future reference. DESCRIPTION The RC-100 is a precision digital thermostat specifically designed for heat pumps. It has the capability of being controlled both locally and by remote control. It offers programmability, stand alone operation, and robust, optically isolated communications with automation systems, utility control systems, and personal computers. There are several items which can be configured at the time of installation. These items have a check box ( ) for your installer to indicate which features are used in your system. As an EPA ENERGY STAR Partner, Home Automation, Inc. has determined that this thermostat meets the ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency. MAINTENANCE Your new thermostat is maintenance free. There is no battery to install or replace. If necessary, clean unit carefully with a mild soap solution on a soft cloth. 1 ABOUT HEAT PUMPS... A heat pump is a mechanical refrigeration system that operates in two modes, heating and cooling. In cooling mode, the heat pump takes indoor heat and pumps it outside, just like a standard air conditioner. In heating mode, the process is reversed: the heat pump takes outside heat and pumps it inside. Although it feels cold outside, the air still has heat in it that the heat pump can use as a source of heat. The fact that the heat pump moves heat from one place to the other (as opposed to creating heat directly from electricity or gas) is the key to it's remarkable efficiency. A heat pump usually produces over 3 times more heat per watt of electricity than standard electric heating. While some heat pumps use outside air as their source of heat, others use the heat available under the ground or in a water well. These are called air-source, ground-source, or water-source heat pumps, respectively. The RC-100 is capable of controlling all of these types of heat pumps. In extremely cold conditions, the heat pump may require assistance from another source of heat, known as "auxiliary heating". Auxiliary heating is less efficient than the heat pump, so it is best to use the heat pump instead of the auxiliary heat. For normal and most efficient operation, the RC-100 should be in HEAT or AUTO mode so that it can properly control the auxiliary heat. The heat pump is used first, auxiliary heat is used only if necessary. In EMERGENCY HEAT mode, the RC-100 will turn the heat pump off and use the auxiliary heating only. This mode may be used if the heat pump has failed. 2 ENERGY EFFICIENT CONTROL Using the programmable or remote control features of your thermostat, you can save energy costs by setting back the thermostat during unoccupied times. This reduces the energy loss from indoors to outdoors. In the past, it has been said that heat pumps should not be set back because it takes more energy to re-heat the premises than to keep it at the same temperature. This is true with mechanical thermostats, because they will use the inefficient auxiliary heat to recover from the setback. This is not true with the RC-100, because it uses intelligence to ensure that recove...
