NOTE is used to highlight suggestions which will result in enhanced installation, reliability, or operation.
INTRODUCTION
Carrier’s 7-day, 5/2-day, 1-day programmable and non-programmable Performance Series Thermostat Control is a wall-mounted, low- voltage temperature control in either a single unit or a two- piece unit. In two- piece configuration, the relays are located near the equipment and a two-wire connection is used between the Display Module and the Equipment Control Module. Single-piece installation requires more wiring and results in a higher profile. The Edget Thermostat has no need for batteries to store user- configured settings in memory. During power loss its internal memory saves settings for unlimited time, and the clock continues to run for at least 24 hours. An extension of Carrier’s proven line of thermostats; it provides separate setpoints for heating and cooling. In the Edge Thermostat Control programmable configuration, different heating and cooling setpoints and times are programmable for 4 periods per day or 2 periods per day. Programming can be done for 7 days per week, 5/2 days per week, or 1 day. The programmable Thermostat Control can also be user configured as a non- programmable Thermostat Control. The non-programmable Thermostat Control features Touch ’N’ Got settings for quick and easy temperature change without complicated programming schedules. And, its Touch ’N’ Go technology enables the user to switch between three different user- configurable settings through intuitive buttons located just below the display.
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
Power
This control is powered by 24VAC only. It requires 24VAC (Rh and/or Rc and C terminals) of the low-voltage transformer to be connected to it for proper operation. It will not operate without these 2 connections. Rh and Rc are connected via PCB breakout jumper. See Fig. 1. For applications using two 24VAC transformers, one in the indoor unit and one in the outdoor unit, connect the common from each to the C terminal. Connect R from the indoor unit to the Rh terminal. Connect R from the outdoor unit to the Rc terminal. Then, break jumper on the circuit board. The W signal is taken from the Rh power and the G signal is taken from the Rc power. If the thermostat has been installed in a two- transformer application that is later changed to a single- transformer installation, installer must install a field supplied jumper between Rc and Rh. Depending on the installation, up to 14 wires may be required. Installation as two-piece unit is recommended. Only 2 wires are required for connection between Display Module and Equipment Control Module. These two wires (V+ and Vg) do not provide ordinary 24VAC. They carry a combination of power and communications data that is unique to these products.
- Models
There are programmable and non-programmable models for all applications. They can be configured for AC or HP installations, allowing it to be used in place of all Carrier thermostats. Programmable thermostats may be configured as non- programmable if user desires. - Outdoor Temperature Sensor
The outdoor air temperature sensor is not included with the AC/HP Control. It is available as an accessory, part number TSTATCCSEN01-B. Optimum performance is obtained when an outdoor temperature sensor is used with the AC/HP Control. Plan installation so that 2 wires can be run from Equipment Control Module to an outdoor location, preferably on the north side of the house or refer to Installation Instructions included with the outdoor temperature sensor for simplified connection. Sensor can be mounted to outdoor unit and existing dedicated sensor wires may be used for its connection. Details are provided in sensor instructions. - Remote Indoor Temperature Sensor
A remote temperature sensor may be used with the programmable heat pump and programmable air conditioner thermostats where it is desirable to install the thermostat in a limited access location while measuring the temperature in the living space. The remote room sensor may be used as a stand alone or average with local sensor. - Two-Piece Thermostat Configuration
The Performance Series AC/HP Control can be installed in one of two configurations. The control may be installed as a single- piece thermostat or it may be split into two pieces and mounted in separate locations. As a single- piece unit, all required wiring must be brought to the Equipment Control Module for connection to the terminal strip. In two- piece configuration, the Display Module can be mounted in the living space while the Equipment Control Module may be mounted near the indoor furnace or fan coil. Connection from the display to the Equipment Control Module requires only two wires. All other control wires are connected to the Equipment Control Module from the HVAC equipment. This configuration results in a slimmer display and locates the Equipment Control Module containing the switching relays away from the main living space where relay clicking will not be heard.
The model numbers on the Display Module and the Equipment Control Module (ECM) must match or unpredictable results may occur. Two-wire pigtail replacement part number is TX-2WR- 05. - Wiring
For all wiring applications, use 22 AWG or larger wire. Continuous wire lengths over 100 ft. (30.5 m) should use 20 AWG or larger. Wire lengths are not to exceed 250 ft. (76 m) per run
INSTALLATION
uNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow the recommended wiring practices could result in damage to the wall control and personal property. Improper wiring or installation may damage AC/HP Control. Check to make sure wiring is correct before proceeding with installation or turning on power.

The installer will set the start date (Spring) for Daylight Savings Time by setting the day of the week by selecting the appropriate triangle icon next to the days of the week, the month of the year will be set in the clock hours location (range 1- 12) and the week of the month will be set in the clock minutes location. The week of the month selections will be F, 2, 3, 4, and L for First, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and Last. So for the first Sunday in April, the display would show SUN, 4, F. When 2 is displayed, the installer will then choose the end date for daylight savings time (Fall). To activate the function, the installer changes the “2” by pressing the up button and “On” is displayed. The setting shall be left “On” to enable the Daylight Savings Time function.
Default is OF (off).
Option 32 —Furnace Heat Staging Control (available only when the HP thermostat is configured to operate AC equipment or Heat Only).
- 1 — The thermostat controls W1 output only and furnace controls the turn on and turn off of higher stages of heat.
- 2 — The thermostat will control the W1 and O/W2/B outputs.
Default is 1.
Option 33 —Single or Two-Piece Installation
This configuration allows the thermostat to compensate for the amount of heat generated by the thermostat electronics to allow more accurate sensing of the temperature sensor. The amount of heat compensation will be different between single installation and two-piece installation.
Range: 1P or 2P
- 1P — The installation is single piece.
- 2P — The installation is two separate pieces.
- Default is 2P.
Option 41 —Variable Speed Blower
This selection allows the installer to select between a single speed or variable motor.
- Off – The system has a single-speed (PSC) blower.
- On – The system has a variable speed blower.
Factory default is OF (Off)
Option 44 —Super Comfort Heat
This option is only available on heat pump units HP (HP, H2) when Option 41 (Variable Speed Blower) is set to On and the system has a valid OAT sensor.
- OF (Off) – Comfort Heat is off
- On – Comfort Heat feature is on.
If the outdoor air temperature is between 12 to 40_F (-11 to 4_C) and the compressor is running in heating, then the fan output is turned off. This will signal the variable speed blower to reduce the air speed. The fan output is turned off even if the user has the fan selection set to continuous fan. The fan output will be turned back on in this temperature range if the maximum capacity of auxiliary heat is on due to system demand (auxiliary heat on in response to a defrost signal shouldn’t cause the fan to turn back on).
If the outdoor air temperature is below 12_F/-11_C and there is sufficient demand for the equipment to be on, then the fan output is turned back on and the W/W1 output is energized. In a two speed unit the Y/Y2 output should be energized in addition to the W/W1 output.
NOTE: All temperature boundaries have a +/- 2_ hysteresis. Factory default is OF (Off).
Option 99 —Reset to Factory Defaults
Use this capability to reset the stat to “out of the box” conditions. BEWARE! All configuration settings, program settings, clock, and calendar which have been manually entered will be lost!
When this option is selected, the configuration number (99), will appear on the left and 10 will appear on the right. To perform the reset, first use the MODE key to move the box from the 99 to the 10 (programmable model) or to flash the 10 (non-programmable model). Then press and hold the DOWN key. The 10 will start counting down toward zero. If the DOWN key is kept pressed until the count reaches zero, the reset will be performed. When the value reaches zero, the heat setpoint shall display – – . The cool setpoint shall display – and the room air temperature shall display Fd. When the factory defaults have been restored, the thermostat will act as if power was cycled and return to normal operation. If the DOWN key is released early, the number will return to 10 and the reset will not occur.
SYSTEM START-UP AND CHECKOUT
Fan button switches FAN icon between AUTO and On. While On is displayed, G output will be energized, turning fan on. On some fan coils, fan continues to operate for 90 sec after G signal is removed.
Final Settings
Be sure to press DONE to exit installer setup mode. If the system is to be left in operation after installation is complete, use MODE button to select between HEAT, COOL, or AUTO to provide desired operation of heating, cooling, or auto. On the programmable models, the default setpoints and programmed schedule conform to the Energy Starr requirements of the U.S. Department of Energy for both heating and cooling. These provide energy saving temperature settings. Refer to Table 1.
SCHEDULE | HEAT | COOL |
Wake 6:00 AM | 68_F/20_C | 78_F/26_C |
Day 8:00 AM | 60_F/16_C | 85_F/29_C |
Evening 5:00 PM | 68_F/20_C | 78_F/26_C |
Sleep 10:00 PM | 60_F/16_C | 82_F/28_C |
If the programmed schedule is to be used, make sure the triangle icon next to the FOLLOW SCHEDULE icon is turned on. Pressing the Schedule button will cycle the triangle icon through the FOLLOW SCHEDULE, HOLD and VACATION selections. If fixed temperatures are desired, use SCHEDULE button to turn on arrow icon next to HOLD. This will maintain setpoints, not allowing them to change with the programmed schedule.
Setting The Clock, Calendar, Daily Schedule, and Vacation Settings (programmable models only)
To set the clock, press the SET button once. The Clock will be displayed at the bottom center of the screen. Use the soft keys to move the box around the digits to be set and the UP/DOWN buttons to change the setting. Concurrent presses of the set button will cycle through the calendar, daily schedule, and vacation settings. Calendar may be changed by using the soft keys to select the Month, Day, or Year. The UP/DOWN buttons are used to change the Month, Day, or Year setting when the box surrounds it. Day of the week (Mon-Sun) is determined by calendar settings and is not directly adjustable.
When changing daily schedule settings, the soft keys are used to set the days, period times, heating setpoints, and cooling setpoints. The UP/DOWN buttons are used to change the setting with the box around it. ALL PROGRAM PERIODS (WAKE, DAY, EVE, SLEEP) MUST OCCUR WITHIN THE SAME 24-HOUR PERIOD.
When changing Vacation settings, the soft keys are used to choose the selection to be adjusted and the UP/DOWN buttons are used to change the setting.
Vacation (programmable models only)
A vacation selection is available specifically for times where the home will not be occupied for an extended period. Vacation mode has an automatic hold, meaning that setpoints are not affected by the programmed schedule. Vacation mode is active for a specified period of time. While in vacation mode, the system provides temperature protection for the home in the selected mode, but not comfort. When vacation mode is active, an arrow will be displayed beside “VACATION” in the upper left corner of the display.
A special set of temperature setpoints exist which are active in vacation mode. They are adjustable by the homeowner, are exclusively for vacation mode, and are remembered from one vacation selection to the next. See Table 2 for default values.
MODE | AUTO |
Fan | Auto |
Heat Setpoint | 55_F/13_C |
Cool Setpoint | 85_F/29_C |
OPERATIONAL INFORMATION
Timers
This timer prevents compressor from starting unless it has been off for at least 5 minutes. It can be overridden for 1 cycle by simultaneously pressing FAN and UP buttons.
Cycle Timer
Based on the selection of 2, 4, or 6 cycles per hour, this timer is set to 30, 15, or 10 minutes. This much time must elapse from the start of one cycle before another cycle can start. It serves to impose the cycles per hour limits. It can be defeated for one cycle by simultaneously pressing the FAN and UP buttons.
In multistage heating or cooling, this timer prevents any higher stage from turning on until preceding stage has been on for 10 minutes. When staging between compressor and electric heat or between compressor and furnace heat, the time is configurable. The timer is configurable via Option 17. This timer is overridden if temperature error is greater than 5_ (usually due to a large change in desired temperature) and equipment stages up in 60 second intervals.
The ten-minute staging timer does not require the thermostat to change to a higher stage after 10 minutes. If the system is able to meet the demand (maintain setpoint) it may not change stages after the 10 minute timer has expired. If there is sufficient demand for a higher stage at the end of 10 minutes or at any time after the 10 minute timer has expired, the thermostat will energize the next higher stage.
Defrost
Detection of defrost will not work properly if the installer has configured the O/W2/B output to function as a B output. During heat pump heating, a defrost signal shall be considered valid if the compressor output is energized and the defrost signal has been active for less than 15 consecutive minutes. Any defrost signal present for longer than 15 minutes shall be considered invalid.
Heat pump/fan coil systems shall use this input to:
- Detect that defrost is in progress and energize the auxiliary heat to provide homeowner comfort during the defrost cycle
- Allow a defrost cycle to run to completion regardless of the syste demand
Three-Minute Minimum on Time
In normal operation, when a stage turns on, it will not turn off for a minimum of 3 minutes. If the setpoint is changed, this timer is canceled, allowing the equipment to turn off immediately when the demand is removed.
Heat/Cool Setpoints (Desired Temperature)
A minimum difference of 1_ and maximum of 6_ is enforced between heating and cooling desired temperatures. This is done by allowing 1 setting to “push” the other, to maintain this difference. This difference is adjustable via Configuration Option.
Equipment On Indicators
When cooling equipment is on, a COOL ON icon is displayed. While cooling equipment operation is delayed by the timeguard or cycle timer, COOL ON will flash. The same is true for HEAT ON.
When the W is energized in a heat pump, the auxiliary heat on icon will be displayed.
Auto Changeover
When auto changeover mode is selected, a change from heat to cool (or vice versa) will not occur until an opposite mode demand has existed for 20 minutes. If setpoint is changed, 20-minute requirement is deleted.
Emergency Heat Mode
When AC/HP Control is configured as a heat pump and emergency heat is selected, all Y signals are locked out, and W becomes energized upon a call for heat.
Programmable Fan (programmable models only)
The fan output can be programmed based on period of the day. When programming for each day and period the fan can be set to On or AUTO. If the fan button is pressed to change from On to Auto or vice versa when programmable fan has been enabled, the manual change will only remain in effect until the next program period, when the programmable fan setting will be changed per the scheduled setting.
Dry Contact
On the programmable models, the dry contact that can be used for control of an auxiliary device. The dry contact may be configured to be closed for a specific number of minutes per hour for each period of the program schedule. This can be used to operate a ventilator, damper, system blower, or another auxiliary device. There are two terminals, D1 and D2.
If it is desired to operate a ventilator or other device, the D1 and D2 terminals can be connected directly to the equipment. This will provide a closed contact for the specified number of minutes per hour. See Option 19. If timed control of the system blower is required, the dry contact can be used for this function. The G terminal can be connected to one of the dry contact terminals with the other terminal being connected to Rc and/or Rh for timed control of the fan. Note that this is not the same as the programmable fan Option 30.
See Wiring Diagrams for more information.
Relays
This thermostat uses latching relays. When the thermostat loses power, the relays will remain in their last position until power is restored and all relays are reset to their correct position. Out of the box, the outputs may appear to be On when the thermostat is not powered. This is normal. Output states should only be checked when the thermostat is powered.
Temperature Offset After Power Cycle
To compensate for internal heat build-up from the electronics in the thermostat, the thermostat will add an offset to the actual temperature that it measures. If the thermostat power is cycled quickly, one can witness an immediate increase in the actual temperature displayed due to this added offset. The thermostat display will return to the actual room temperature after several minutes of operation.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If the display module doesn’t power up after power is applied, check the Rc/Rh and C terminals for 24VAC. If 24VAC is present, check the voltage between Vg and V+. This voltage will be approximately 12-20VDC. If voltage is present, check the polarity to make sure it is wired correctly. The display will not power up if polarity is reversed.
If dashes appear for Option 01 in config and during reboot, the problem could be the red pigtail being wired to Rc or Rh and the black pigtail being wired to C. If so, remove the two-wire pigtail and connect to the V+ and Vg terminals.
Error Codes
“- – ” – If AC/HP Control cannot properly read room temperature, display will indicate “- – ” and all outputs (except fan, if on) will turn off. In the case where the installer has selected to average the local sensor and the remote room sensor, the AC/HP display will alternate between “- – ” for the failed sensor and the temperature sensed by the working sensor every 10 seconds. The control will operate from the temperature sensed by the working sensor.
- E1 – If the Display Module and the Equipment Control Module cannot communicate via two-wire connection, an E1 will be displayed.
- E2 – There is no E2 error message.
- E3 – If AC/HP Control cannot properly read outdoor temperature, and it is needed for proper operation, display will indicate “- – ” in the outdoor temperature location.
- E4 – If AC/HP Control’s internal memory fails, E4 will be displayed. Replace AC/HP Control.
Table 3 can be used as a troubleshooting tool for determining which outputs will be active for a particular configuration and each operating mode.
When replacing a failed component such as an equipment control module or a display module, the installer should replace both parts as a matched set. It is very easy to accidentally mix an A/C or HP display with a PAC equipment control module.When this happens, some functions appear in the setup while others do not. This can be very confusing to troubleshoot. Verify that both parts have the same model and serial number when troubleshooting the thermostat.
