QUICK REFERENCE: DEFAULT DISPLAY MODE

Default Display

The factory-programmed settings show the time, temperature, and setpoint. This is called the Default Display. The Default Display appears after a short period of inactivity. The Default Display can be custom configured to show user-selected items only (see Service Menu 520 in “Performance PRO T8000 Series Installation Guide”).

Note: The Battery Indicator, Service Indicator, Filter Indicator, and Secure Digital (SD) icons appear at bottom of the digital display if user action is required.

T8000 HOME DISPLAY SCREEN

KEY OPERATION

1. System key
   Used to control the operating mode of the Performance PRO T8000 Series thermostats.
   The options available are dependent on System Type selected in Service Menu 110 (see Advanced Configuration in “Performance PRO T8000 Series Installation Guide”). System modes are:
   1. HEAT – Select the system to operate in heating mode only. Only one setpoint is displayed.
   2. COOL – Select for the system to operate in cooling mode only. Only one setpoint is displayed.
   3. AUTO – Allows the system to control to both the Heat and Cool Setpoints. The system will automatically change over between heating and cooling modes as room temperature varies. Cool Setpoint must always be greater than Heat Setpoint by the deadband value.
   4. OFF – Disables all thermostat outputs; only zone temperature and time are displayed.
   5. EMERGENCY (Em)– Emergency heat can be used when the Heat Pump cannot keep up with the heat load. Use Service Menu 110 (System Type 6 & 11) to enable.
      Note: Deadband is the user-defined minimum difference between the Cool Setpoint and Heat Setpoint (see Service Menu 380).
2. Fan key
   Used with two different menu options:
   1. ON – Continuous fan operation.
   2. AUTO – The fan is activated only when there is a demand for heat or cooling, with some exceptions.
      Note: Several Service Menu options affect the fan operation (See Advanced Configuration in the “Performance PRO T8000 Series Installation Guide.”)
3. More key
   Used to view more menu options. From the Default Display, press More to show more menu options that may be accessed by pressing the soft keys.
4. Demand Indicator
   Light emitting diode (LED) on the lower left front panel that displays red when heating and green when cooling. Available only when 24 VAC power is connected to the thermostat.
5. Up and Down keys (▲/▼)
   Used in menus to increase or decrease variable settings, or switch to the next input.
   Note: Pressing ▲/▼ keys show the Override display unless Holiday mode is set.
6. Override key
   Used to create a temporary override of the current setpoint temperature. Pressing Override will display the “Next” and “Done” options and the setpoint will begin flashing.
7. Temporary Override – The active setpoint is taken from setpoints defined in the Override menu. (In Home Display, “Override” fl ashes during the override time period if selected.)
   Service Indicator
   The icon appears to notify the user that the remote temperature sensors are reading out of range.
8. Battery Indicator
   The icon appears only when the battery level is low and flashes when the battery level is critically low. Two AA alkaline batteries (2.6 – 3.1VDC) have an approximate 1-year life expectancy.
9. Keypad Lockout
   The icon appears if any type of keypad lockout is active. Keypad lockout blocks access to certain features of the thermostat. (See Service Menu 340 to enable Keypad Lockout).
