Carrier 33CS Commercial Programmable Thermostat
GENERAL
Carrier’s 7-day, commercial, programmable thermostats are wall-mounted, low-voltage thermostats which maintain room temperature by controlling the operation of an HVAC (heating, cooling and ventilation) system. Separate heating and cooling set points and auto-changeover capability allow occupied and unoccupied programming schedules for energy savings. All thermostats allow up to 3 occupied and one unoccupied time/temperature setting to be programmed per 24-hour period. Each thermostat stores programs for 7 independent days. Batteries are not required. During power interruption the internal NEVERLOST™ memory stores programs for an unlimited time.
IMPORTANT: The thermostat has a configurable security level. If certain functions are not available (changing set points, changing programming schedules), the thermostat security level may be configured to exclude those functions. Call the installer to reconfigure the security level.

the day of the week. The current day will blink on and off. Press the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW buttons until the correct day is shown. Press the Set Clock button again to exit the Set Time mode.
Programming Thermostat Schedules
Before programming the thermostat, plan the thermostat daily schedule. The schedule is divided into 7 days (Monday through Sunday). Each day can have 2 (Occupied 1, Unoccupied), 3 (Occupied 1, Occupied 2, Unoccupied), or 4 (Occupied 1, Occupied 2, Occupied 3, Unoccupied) time periods. Each occupied time period has a start time, stop time, heating set point and a cooling set point. The unoccupied time period has a heating set point and a cooling set point. The unoccupied time period is active whenever an occupied time period is not active. Fill in Table 1 below as an aid to programming the daily schedules.
- PROGRAMMING MODE — To program the daily schedules, perform the following procedure:
- Enter programming mode by pressing the Program button. The Occupied 1 annunciator will appear on the thermostat display. See Fig. 5. Use the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW buttons to set the maximum number of Occupied periods available. The thermostat can be set to 1, 2, or 3. After the number of Occupied periods has been selected, press the Mode button.
- The cooling set point for Occupied 1 will be displayed. Use the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW buttons to raise or lower the cooling set point until the desired temperature is shown. The range of acceptable values is 35 to 99 F (1 to 37 C). Press the Mode button to continue. See Fig. 5.
- The heating set point for Occupied 1 will be displayed. Use the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW buttons to raise or lower the heating set point until the desired temperature is shown. The range of acceptable values is 35 to 99 F (1 to 37 C). Press the Mode button to continue. See Fig. 5.
- The cooling set point for Unoccupied will be displayed. Use the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW buttons to raise or lower the cooling set point until the desired temperature is shown. The range of acceptable values is 35 to 99 F (1 to 37 C) or ‘‘OF’’(no unoccupied cooling). Press the Mode button to continue.
- The heating set point for Unoccupied will be displayed. Use the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW buttons to raise or lower the heating set point until the desired temperature is shown. The range of acceptable values is 35 to 99 F (1 to 37 C) or ‘‘OF’’ (no unoccupied heating). Press the Mode button to continue.
- The day of the week will be shown. Use the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW buttons to change the day of the week until the desired starting day is shown. Possible choices areM(Monday) through S (Sunday). Press the Mode button when the desired day is shown.
- The Start Time for Occupied 1 will be displayed. Use the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW buttons to raise or lower the time until the desired Start Time is shown. Press the Mode button to continue. See Fig. 6.
- The Stop Time for Occupied 1 will be displayed. Use the UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW buttons to raise or lower the time until the desired Stop Time is shown. Press the Mode button.
- The On/Off icon will be displayed. Use the UP ARROW to turn the Occupied 1 period ON for this day. Use the DOWNARROW to turn the Occupied 1 period OFF for this day.
- Repeat Steps 2 through 9 to program the remaining schedule for occupied periods 2 and 3 (if selected in Step 1).
- The Copy command can be used to copy the previous day’s schedule if the schedules are the same. The copy command becomes available after all the occupied periods are programmed in a day. Use the UPARROW to change the copy command to YES. Use the DOWN ARROW to change the copy command to NO. Press the Mode button when the choice has been made. See Fig. 7.
If NO was selected, the schedule will automatically change to the next day and the user must enter the occupied and unoccupied schedules for that day.
NOTE: Occupied 1 schedule heating and cooling set points are the same for each day. Occupied 2 and 3 set points may be set to different values for each day of the week. If YES was selected, the schedule will be copied to the next day. The scheduled copy may be repeated until Sunday is reached. The Sunday schedule cannot be copied to Monday. - After all the times and set points for each day have been entered, press the Program button to finish entering the schedule.
NOTE: The thermostat will continue to follow the schedule until a new one is entered.- If only one occupied schedule is selected, the Occupied 2 and 3 schedules are skipped.
- If the start time is set later in the day than the stop time, the program will run from midnight of that day to the stop time and then from the start time to midnight.
- If the same start and stop times are programmed for an occupancy schedule, the thermostat will be in Occupied mode for 24 hours.
- If one occupied period starts or stops within another occupied period, the lower-numbered schedule has priority. For example, if schedule Occupied 3 is running for 24 hours and occupied schedule 2 comes on from1 to 3 PM, the set points from Occupied 2 are in effect from 1 to 3 PM.
- OVERRIDING THE SCHEDULE — The schedule can be overridden during operation by pressing the UP or DOWN ARROW buttons to change the desired temperature. The thermostat will use the new set point until the next scheduled time period starts.
OPERATION
The Mode button selects the operating mode of the thermostat.
If OFF is selected, the thermostat will not enter Heating or Cooling mode. If HEAT is selected, the thermostat will only enter Heating mode (if the room temperature is below the heating set point). If COOL is selected, the thermostat will only enter Cooling mode (if the room temperature is above the cooling set point). If AUTO is selected, the thermostat will enter Heating or Cooling mode based on the room temperature and the heating and cooling set points. If PROGRAM ON is selected, the stored schedule is enabled and the thermostat will follow the Occupied and Unoccupied schedules stored in its memory.
- Auto-Changeover— When the thermostat mode is set to AUTO, the thermostat will provide automatic changeover from Heating to Cooling mode and Cooling to Heating mode when required. The thermostat will automatically switch to maintain the desired temperature setting. The thermostat does not need to be manually changed from heating to cooling or cooling to heating operation.
