aube TH106 Programmable Thermostat - Overview

* LP appears only for the first two minutes when the thermostat is without power. This can occur during a power outage or when the thermal protection device inside the baseboard heater is opened.

Description

This programmable thermostat can be used to control an electric heating system such as an electric baseboard heater, a radiant ceiling, a radiant floor, a convector or a fan-forced heater.
The thermostat cannot be used with:

  • a resistive load over 16.7 A
  • a resistive load under 2 A
  • a system driven by a contactor or relay (inductive load)
  • a central heating system

SUPPLIED PARTS:

  • One (1) thermostat
  • Two (2) 6-32 screws
  • Two (2) solderless connectors

Installation

TURN OFF POWER TO THE HEATING SYSTEM AT THE MAIN POWER PANEL TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK. THE INSTALLATION MUST BE PERFORMED BY AN ELECTRICIAN.

  • All cables and connections must conform to the local electrical code.
  • Special CO/ALR solderless connectors must be used when connecting with aluminum conductors.
  • Install the thermostat onto an electrical box. · Install the thermostat about 5 feet high, or an inside wall facing the heater.
  • Avoid locations where there are air drafts (such as the top of a staircase or an air outlet), dead air spots (such as behind a door), or direct sunlight.
  • Do not install the thermostat on a wall that conceals chimney or stove pipes.
  • The thermostat wires are not polarized; either wire can be connected to the load or to the power supply.
    NOTE: Always keep the thermostat’s vents clean and unobstructed.

  3. Return power to heating system.

Configuration

The configuration switches are on the back of the thermostat. The factory settings are indicated by the gray cells in the following table.
aube TH106 Programmable Thermostat - Configuration

SW1 Early Start a Off On
SW2 Display format °C / 24-hour °F / 12-hour
SW3 Cycle length b 15 seconds Baseboard heater 5 minutes Fan-forced heater
SW4 Keypad lock c Off On

a. Early Start can be used in Automatic mode only. When this function is enabled, the thermostat calculates the optimal time to start heating in order to obtain the desired temperature by the set time. The thermostat re-assesses the start time daily based on the previous day’s performance.
b. You must select 5 minutes if you have a fan-forced heater. The word FAN is displayed when this setting is selected. Select 15 seconds for better temperature control in most other cases.
c. The settings are locked. The temperature adjustment buttons only allow you to view the temperature setpoint.

Clock and Day Setting

  1. Press the Hour button to set the hour.
  2. Press the Min button to set the minutes.
  3. Press the Day button to set the day.
  4. Press the Mode button to end.

Daylight Savings Time
The thermostat can automatically re-adjust its clock at Daylight Savings Time changeover. When this function is enabled (On), the thermostat switches to Daylight Savings Time on the second Sunday of March and to normal time on the first Sunday of November.

NOTE: The function is disabled (default setting) when the clock loses its setting.aube TH106 Programmable Thermostat - Disital Digit

Temperature Settings

Setpoint
The thermostat normally displays the actual temperature. To view the setpoint, press the  or button briefly. The setpoint will appear for the next 5 seconds.
To change the setpoint, press the  button until the desired temperature is displayed. To scroll faster, hold the button.

Using a preset temperature
The thermostat has 3 preset temperatures:

  • Comfort temperature 
  • Economy temperature
  • Vacation temperature
Icon Intended Use Factory Setting
Comfort (when at home) 70°F (21°C)
Economy (when asleep or away from home) 62°F (16.5°C)
Vacation (during prolonged absence) 50°F (10°C)
  • To use the Comfort or Economy temperature, press the  or button respectively. The corresponding icon will be displayed.
  • To use the Vacation temperature, press both  and  buttons simultaneously. The  icon will be displayed.

Storing a preset temperature
To store the Comfort or Economy temperature:
Set the desired temperature using the  button. Press and hold the appropriate button (or ) for approximately 3 seconds until the corresponding icon is displayed.

To store the Vacation temperature:
Set the desired temperature using the  button.
Press and hold both  and buttons simultaneously for approximately 3 seconds until the icon is displayed.

Modes of Operation

Automatic – The temperature is set according to the programmed schedule. To place the thermostat in this mode, press the Mode button until is displayed. The icons of the current period and preset temperature are also displayed.

Temporary Bypass: If you modify the setpoint (by pressing the  or button) when the thermostat is in automatic mode, the new setpoint will be used until the end of the current period. When the next period starts, the temperature set for that period becomes the new setpoint. To cancel the bypass, press the Mode button.

 Manual – The programmed schedule is not used. The temperature must be set manually. To place the thermostat in this mode:

  1. Press the Mode button until is displayed.
  2. Set the temperature using the , , or button.

Schedule

The schedule consists of 4 periods per day which represents a typical weekday. You can program the thermostat to skip the periods that do not apply to your situation. For example, you can skip periods 2 and 3 for the weekend.

Period Description Setting
Wake
Leave
Return
Sleep

The Comfort () temperature is used in periods 1 and 3 and the Economy () temperature is used in periods 2 and 4. For example, when the period changes from 1 to 2, the setpoint automatically changes from Comfort setting () to Economy setting ().
You can have a different program for each day of the week; i.e., each period can start at different time for each day of the week. The thermostat has been programmed with the following schedule.

  5. Press Mode to exit the programming mode.
    NOTE: If no button is pressed for 60 seconds, the thermostat will automatically exit the programming mode.

Power Outage

During a power outage, LP (Low Power) appears for the first minute. Then the screen becomes blank. The settings are stored in memory. After initial installation, product must be connected to power for a minimum of two hours to enable the power outage feature. However, if the power failure exceeds 4 hours, the thermostat’s clock must be re-adjusted and, if you are using the automatic Daylight Savings Time changeover function, it must be re-enabled. When power returns, the thermostat will return to the mode of operation active prior to the power failure.

Troubleshooting

Problem Solutions
Thermostat is hot. Under normal operation, the thermostat housing can reach a temperature between 95°F (35°C) and 104°F (40°C).
LO is displayed. The measured temperature is below the display range. Heating is activated.
HI is displayed. The measured temperature is above the display range.
Wrong temperature is displayed. The thermostat is exposed to air draft.
Eliminate the draft. The sticker on the thermostat’s screen has not been removed.
Wrong time is displayed. The thermostat was without power for more than 4 hours.
Temperature does not change according to the programmed schedule. Check that the thermostat is in Automatic mode. Check the schedule and clock settings.
LP appears on the screen or the screen is blank despite there is no power outage. The thermal circuit breaker in the heater is opened. This can happen if the heater is obstructed by furniture or curtain and has overheated, or if the thermal circuit breaker is defective.
Display looks faded when heating is activated The heating system is less than the required minimum load. This thermostat cannot be used below that rating.
The settings cannot be changed. The settings are locked (see section 3).
E2 is displayed The thermostat performance is reduced due to a sensor error. Please contact technical support for more information.
