BASIC FUNCTIONALITY

Switching System Mode
Press the “Mode” button to switch between all available system mode settings. When the Mode is “Off” the thermostat will not bring on your heating or cooling systems.

Fan Mode
If you want to circulate the indoor blower, you can switch Fan to “On.” Turn the Fan back to “Auto” when you want the thermostat to control your indoor blower as necessary. Leaving the  Fan in “On” will run your blower continuously

Holding One Temperature
If you want to hold one temperature, turn Schedule “Off.” Then, adjust the set point using the up and down arrow buttons. The thermostat will hold this temperature, in the set Mode, until you turn Schedule back “On” or until you adjust the set point again using the up and down arrow buttons.

Temporary Hold
When your schedule is set to “On,” your Sensi thermostat controls your home based on the time and temperature settings in the current schedule. To temporarily change your temperature use the up and down arrows in the app or on the thermostat. Your Sensi thermostat will display “Temporarily Set To” on the thermostat and will hold your new temperature until the next scheduled set point with a minimum hold time of two hours.

Circulating Fan
If you want to circulate the air in your home using your indoor blower fan, you can set this feature in the app or at the thermostat. A percentage is selected to indicate how often the fan should run each hour, You can set 5% increments from 10% – 100%.

EXAMPLE:
If you set the Circulating Fan to 50%, the fan will run 30 minutes every hour. If any heat/cool cycles occur during the hour, their runtime is subtracted from the overall fan run time.

Setting the feature from the thermostat:

1. Press “Menu”
2. Press “Next” until you come to “Fn Setup”.
3. Use the up arrow button to toggle the percentage you’d like the fan to run each hour.
4. Press “Exit”

MENU CONFIGURATIONS

Pressing “Menu” at the thermostat allows you to change a series of settings to customize the thermostat for your specific system. Refer to the chart below for a complete listing of thermostat configurations and what they stand for. If you are installing the thermostat on the wall for the first time, we highly recommend that you download the Sensi app and follow the installation instructions. However, if you are experiencing an issue or you want to check your system configurations, you can manually configure your thermostat as well. Learn more about how to properly configure your thermostat by searching “configure” on our support site at sensi.emerson.com/en-us/support.

CONFIGURATION MENU ITEMS REFERENCE

WIRING TERMINALS

See below for definitions of the wiring terminals on the sub-base of the thermostat.

Terminal outputs and wiring diagrams

* If the old thermostat has separate RC and RH wires coming out of the wall, clip the RC/ RH jumper on the back of the thermostat above the battery compartment.

**The common wire could be labelled “C” on your old thermostat, or it could be labelled “B” or “X.” Please refer to the owner’s manual of your old thermostat for clarification.

Does Wire Color Correspond to the Thermostat Terminals?
Wire colour does not always correspond to the thermostat letters. A white wire may be attached to the “W” terminal on the old thermostat, or it may be attached to a different terminal with a different letter. Be sure to take a photo of the old thermostat that shows the wire colours and terminal letters before labelling and removing any wires.
