INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
POWER
Note that this control does not require batteries and is not "power
stealing." It does require 24vac (R and C terminals) of the
low-voltage transformer to be connected to it for proper operation.
It will not operate without these 2 connections.
MODELS
There is a single programmable/non-programmable model for all
applications. It can be configured for AC or HP, 1- or 2-speed
compressor, and for dual fuel installations, allowing it to be used
in place of all Carrier thermostats.
SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Read and follow manufacturer instructions carefully. Follow all
local electrical codes during installation. All wiring must conform
to local and national electrical codes. Improper wiring or installa-
tion may damage Thermidistat Control.
HUMIDIFY EQUIPMENT AND CONNECTIONS
Recognize safety information. This is the safety-alert symbol
When you see this symbol on the equipment and in the instruction
manual, be alert to the potential for personal injury.
.
The humidify output connects directly to 24vac operated humidi-
fiers. No other connection or interlock is required. Any of several
installer-selectable operating modes are available.
Understand the signal words DANGER, WARNING, and CAU-
TION. These words are used with the safety-alert symbol. DAN-
GER identifies the most serious hazards which will result in severe
personal injury or death. WARNING signifies a hazard which
could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used to
identify unsafe practices which would result in minor personal
injury or product and property damage.
→
DO NOT connect Furnace HUM terminal directly to
Thermidistat HUM terminal. This will bypass furnace safety
controls. See Low Voltage Wiring Daigrams and notes for
proper connection.
INTRODUCTION
DEHUMIDIFY EQUIPMENT AND CONNECTIONS
Carrier’s 7-day programmable/non-programmable Thermidistat
The dehumidify output connects to the dehumidify input on
variable-speed furnaces and fan coils. Additional dehumidification
is done by controlling the compressor. A variety of operating
modes are available.
Control is a wall-mounted, low-voltage control which combines
temperature and humidity control in a single attractive unit. An
extension of Carrier’s proven line of thermostats, it provides
separate set points for heating and cooling, and now adds humidi-
fication and dehumidification. Different heating and cooling set
points and times are programmable for 4 periods per day and 7
days per week. The Thermidistat Control can also be field-
configured as a non-programmable thermostat. When operating in
the non-programmable configuration it will still have both tem-
perature and humidity control. Humidify and dehumidify outputs
provide direct control of humidity. Batteries are not used. During
power loss an internal memory stores programs and settings for
unlimited time, and the clock continues to run for at least 8 hr.
OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Optimum performance is obtained when an outdoor temperature
sensor is used with the Thermidistat Control. Plan installation so
that 2 wires can be run from Thermidistat Control 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 control wires may be used for its
connection. Details are provided in sensor instructions.
Manufacturer reserves the right to discontinue, or change at any time, specifications or designs without notice and without incurring obligations.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS — SELECTION:
Option 1—Anticipator Adjustment
This adjustment controls sensitivity and cycle rate of Thermidistat
Control. Higher numbers decrease sensitivity and slow cycle rate.
Lower numbers increase sensitivity and cycle rate. However, a
limiting feature will not allow more than 4 cycles per hr, regardless
of setting. Anticipator values can range from 1 to 9. Factory
default is 3. This default selection provides optimum performance
in nearly all installations. Try it first. Do not change setting unless
there is evidence of need to do so.
When this identifier disappears, normal operation begins. The
MODE control should be set to OFF and FAN control to AUTO,
so equipment does not start until further configuration and check-
out is completed.
Step 4—Set Thermidistat Control Configuration
Configuration options, like DIP switch settings, are intended to be
selected at installation and normally are not modified by the
homeowner. These options are not discussed in the homeowner’s
manual and therefore must be made as part of the installation. A
special procedure allows entry into the configuration mode. While
in configuration mode, up to 17 selections can be made. A
description of each selection and how to use the configuration
mode follows.
Unlike conventional anticipators, this setting is not determined by
current draw. There is no need to measure, know, or compensate
for current draw. There is also no droop with this Thermidistat
Control. Regardless of setting and number of stages, both heating
and cooling will control to their respective set points.

This option requires prior selection of heat pump (DIP switch 1--
ON). It allows selection of an outdoor temperature of 5o through
55°F. (or equivalent values in C), or OF (off). Auxiliary heat
(furnace in Dual Fuel applications) is prevented from operating for
outdoor temperatures above selected temperature. If OF (off) is
selected, auxiliary heat (furnace if Dual Fuel) operation is allowed
at all outdoor temperatures. If selected, emergency heat (EHEAT)
overrides this feature. Factory default is OF (off). This setting can
only be equal to or above the setting choice made for Option 11.
Moving this setting lower may ’push’ Option 11 setting down-
ward.

55°F. It requires an outdoor temperature sensor. Set to OF to allow
cooling below 55°F. Set to ON to prevent cooling below 55°F.
Factory default is OF (off).
Option 9—Intelligent Heat Staging
This option requires prior selection of single-speed heat pump
(DIP switch 1—ON, DIP switch 2—OF). It provides 3 stages of
electric heat from W1 and W2 by sequencing W1 only, then W2
only, then both W1 and W2. See FK or FV Series Fan Coil
Installation Instructions for further information. For 3-stage heat,
select ON. For normal 1- or 2-stage heat, select OF. Factory

Option 10—Dual Fuel Equipment
to operate. This can be somewhat complicated to determine and it
involves knowing the cost of gas and electricity, as well as the
efficiency of the furnace and heat pump. For the most economical
operation, the heat pump should operate above this temperature
(assuming it has sufficient capacity), and the furnace should
operate below this temperature.
All dual fuel installations must be equipped with a high
pressure switch to turn off compressor under a high indoor
coil pressure condition.
COMFORT BALANCE TEMPERATURE:
The high pressure switch protects compressor and indoor coil from
overpressure which would occur if a failure or wiring error
resulted in the heat pump and furnace operating at the same time.
High Pressure Switch Kit includes required switch and instructions
for proper operation. For all dual fuel installations, outdoor
temperature sensor must be attached. If not, E3 error message will
appear. See "Error Codes."
When the heat pump is operating below this point, the indoor
supply air feels uncomfortable (i.e. too cool). This is purely
subjective and will depend on the homeowner’s idea of comfort.
Below this temperature, the gas furnace should operate in order to
satisfy the desire of indoor comfort.
TO SELECT:
1. Enter configuration mode if not already there. See Step 4 "To
Enter Configuration Mode." Use up and down buttons to make
small (now flashing) display indicate 11.
This option requires prior selection of heat pump (DIP switch
1—ON), and must be selected in dual fuel installations. It prevents
simultaneous operation of both furnace and heat pump, and
prevents direct transition from heat pump to furnace operation.
When system is dual fuel (heat pump and furnace), set to ON.
When system contains fan coil, set to OF. Factory default is OF
(off).
2. Press SET TIME/TEMP button once to flash large display.
3. Use up or down buttons to move between OF, 5, 10, 15, 20,
25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, or 55 on large display. Factory default

Option 12—Defrost Heat Select
2. Press SET TIME/TEMP button once to flash large display.
This option allows installer to select the amount of heat provided
by Thermidistat Control during a heat pump defrost cycle. This can
be very helpful in maintaining a comfortable leaving air tempera-
ture during defrost. The Thermidistat Control senses when defrost
is in progress by monitoring voltage placed on the O line by the
heat pump while defrosting. It responds by turning on selected
combination of W1 and W2 during defrost. Note that this is very
different from the operation of an ordinary thermostat, which
cannot sense defrost in progress and only turns on its W outputs in
response to a temperature demand. Combinations of W1 and W2
are selected via the following:
3. Use up or down buttons to alternate between OF and ON on
large display. Factory default is OF.
4. Press SET TIME/TEMP button again to flash upper small
display for selection of another option, or press END to exit
configuration mode.
Option 11—Balance Point Setting
This option is for dual fuel installations only. It requires prior
selection of heat pump (DIP switch 1 -- ON) and dual fuel
equipment (Option 10 -- ON). It allows selection of an outdoor
temperature of 5oF. through 55oF. (or equivalent values in C.), or
OF (off). Heat pump is prevented from operating for outdoor
temperatures below selected temperature. If OF (off) is selected,
heat pump operation is allowed at all outdoor temperatures.
Factory default is OF (off). This setting can only be equal to or
below the setting choice made for Option 8. Moving the setting
higher may ’push’ Option 8 setting upward.

DEFINITION
Neither W1 or W2 is turned on.
This is factory default.
1

Only W1 is turned on.
Both W1 and W2 turned on.
If the outdoor temperature is above the "balance point setting", the
heat pump will energize first to try to satisfy the indoor tempera-
ture demand. If the heat pump does not make a sufficient
improvement within a reasonable time period (i.e. 15 minutes),
then the gas furnace will come on to satisfy the indoor temperature
demand. If the outdoor temperature is below the "balance point
setting" the heat pump will not be allowed to operate (i.e. locked
out), and the gas furnace will be used to satisfy the indoor
temperature.
There are three separate concepts which are related to selecting the
final "balance point setting". Read each of the following carefully
to determine the best "balance point setting" in a dual fuel
installation:
Only W2 turned on (available
only if 3-stage heat is selected).

The selection procedure is given below. If 0 is selected, operation
is like that of an ordinary thermostat, and a wire is required
between W2 of outdoor unit and a selected W on indoor unit.
When selection 1, 2, or 3 is made, no wire should be connected
from outdoor W2 because this connection may override selection
made. Obviously the heater must be in 2 sections, and fan coil
jumper must be removed between W1 and W2 for there to be a
difference between selections 1, 2, and 3. For most heaters, W1 is
lower wattage heater, and W2 is higher, although some have equal
elements for W1 and W2. Consult fan coil/heater combination for
the actual wattage connected to each of W1 and W2.
CAPACITY BALANCE TEMPERATURE:
This is the point where the heat pump cannot provide sufficient
capacity to keep up with the indoor temperature demand because
of declining outdoor temperature. At or below this point, the
furnace is needed to maintain proper indoor temperature.
In dual fuel applications, above selection choices apply and can be
used to select low or high heat if furnace is 2 stage. W1 will
produce low heat. W1 and W2 together produce high heat. This
option provides no value with single-stage furnaces because only
1 value of heat is available.
ECONOMIC BALANCE TEMPERATURE:
Above this point, the heat pump is the most cost efficient to
operate, and below this point, the furnace is the most cost efficient
The selection choices guarantee selected outputs will be on during
defrost. If room temperature demand requires additional heat, it

will be supplied, resulting in additional outputs being turned on. If
room overheats, specified outputs will not turn off, guaranteeing a
sufficiently warm leaving air temperature during defrost. Tempera-
ture overshoot during defrost can occur, but is almost never
noticeable because of the short duration of the defrost cycle (4
minutes typical, 10 minutes maximum).
that it cannot switch between heat and cool without a 20 minute
"off" time between the 2 operations. Specifically, to switch from 1
mode to the other, there must be no demand for the old mode and
a demand for the new mode, and this must exist continually for 20
minutes before transition to the new mode will occur.
TO SELECT:
An additional feature of Thermidistat Control defrost is that it
always allows defrost cycle to run to completion. The Thermidistat
Control leaves the Y output on as long as outdoor unit holds
voltage on the O line, even if it is satisfied. This prevents
premature termination of defrost cycles, which occur with normal
thermostats.

Option 13—Room Temperature Offset Adjust
1. Enter configuration mode if not already there. See Step 4 "To

small (now flashing) display indicate 15.
This option allows calibration (or deliberate miscalibration) of
room temperature sensor. There are various reasons why home-
owners may want to have displayed temperature adjusted to a
higher or lower value. The selected number is number of degrees
farhenheit, plus or minus, which will be added to actual tempera-
ture. The numbers can range between -5 and +5. Factory default is
0. This adjusted value will be used as actual temperature for both
display and control action. For example, if 2 is selected, 72°F
actual will read 74°F. If set point is 72°F, the room will control to
an actual temperature of 70°F which will be displayed and acted
upon as if it were 72°F. The effect is that a positive number
selection will make the room temperature lower and vice versa.
The Thermidistat Control is calibrated within an accuracy of plus
or minus 1°F when shipped from the factory, so this adjustment
will provide the best accuracy when set to 0.

Blower). Super Comfort Heat mode is part of the Comfort Heat
Pump system, which comprises a selected combination of Ther-
midistat Control, variable speed Fan Coil, and 3-stage electric
heater to provide superior heat pump leaving air temperatures
under all conditions. This option selection modifies heat pump
blower and auxiliary heat operation to contribute to comfortable
leaving air temperature. Specifically, this selection provides:

→ While outdoor air temperature is between 12°F and 40°F, the
Thermidistat Control removes the G signal during heat pump
heating. The 40FK, FK4C, or FV4A Variable-Speed Fan Coils
respond by reducing their airflow in the absence of the G signal,
raising leaving air temperature. For any heating demand below
12°F, G and W/W1 are turned ON, assuring at least 1 stage of
electric heat is on, and also increasing leaving air temperature.

Option 14—Heat/Cool Dead Band Adjustment
This option selects the minimum difference between heat and cool
set points. A larger difference saves energy and a smaller differ-
ence decreases temperature difference between heating and cool-
ing. Factory default is 2, which means cooling set point must be a
minimum of 2° above heating set point. An attempt to move them
closer will result in one "pushing" the other to maintain the
required difference.
As part of the Comfort Heat pump system, Configuration Option
No. 9 (Intelligent Heat Staging) should also be set to ON if the heat
pump is single stage and a 3-stage heater is present.

configuration mode.
This option converts the programmable Thermidistat Control to a
non-programmable control for those users who do not want
programmability. The clock is retained, but the days of the week
and the daily schedules have been eliminated, making it operate as
if HOLD were permanently ON. Some of the buttons (used in
programming only and now not needed) are redefined to simplify
the non-programmable operation. To match these redefined but-
tons, a new keypad label, included with the Thermidistat, must be
placed over the original keypad label. Fig. 2 shows both the
original keypad label and the non-programmable keypad label.
When this option is selected, the new keypad label must be applied
over (or in place of) the original. Because these adhesive-backed
keypad labels are not designed to be removed, this conversion
should be considered permanent. Once the change to non-
programmable operation is done, a procedure is not provided to
easily change it back. Should this change be needed, it is best to
trade the Thermidistat for one which has not been converted.
REDEFINITION OF BUTTONS
Fig. 2 shows the original (programmable) button labels on the left
and the redefined (non-programmable) buttons on the right. In the
figure, the buttons are numbered for easy reference. They are not
numbered on the actual product. Six of the buttons (numbers 1
through 5 and 9) have been redefined.
Button 3 originally alternated between time, cool set point, and
heat set point with each press. Now, button 1 selects the cool set
point, button 2 selects the heat set point, and button 3 selects time,
now used only to set the clock. Note that the days of the week are
gone.
Button 5 used to alternate between humidify and dehumidify. Now
button 4 selects dehumidify and button 5 selects humidify.
Both programmable and non-programmable versions of the Ho-
meowner’s Manual are available. Be sure to leave only the correct
version of the Homeowner’s Manual with the homeowner.
Button 9 now loses the HOLD label, making it END only. This
button is only used to END the humidity screen and the configu-
ration mode.
These changes both simplify operation for the homeowner and find
use for the buttons which are no longer needed when programma-
bility is removed.
Once it has been determined that a particular installation is to be
made non-programmable, the only changes required are:
•
Attach non-programmable keypad label over original program-
mable one.
Step 5—System Start-Up and Checkout
The Thermidistat Control is designed with a built-in installer test
capability. It allows easy operation of equipment without delays or
set point adjustments to force heating or cooling.
•
Attach non-programmable start-up sticker instructions to back
of door.
•
•
Set Configuration Option No. 17 to ON.
To enable installer test mode, move DIP switch No. 4 to ON
position. To access this switch, open case as described in Step 2.
Use the corner of a small screwdriver to slide switch No. 4 to ON
position.
Leave non-programmable homeowner’s manual with home-
owner.
To attach the provided non-programmable keypad label, carefully
peel off its backing and apply it over the original keypad label.
PLEASE HEED: Once the new keypad label makes contact, it will
stick firmly in place and adjustments cannot be made. CARE-
FULLY locate an edge of the keypad label, making sure its
position and orientation are correct. Then, from the attached edge,
smooth the rest of the keypad label over the original. Make sure the
new keypad label does not interfere with the motion of the buttons
which it surrounds.
While in installer setup mode, clock will display "InSt," FAN
button will control fan, and MODE button will control heating and
cooling.
TO TEST FAN:
Fan button switches FAN icon between AUTO and ON. While ON
is displayed, G output will be on, turning fan on. Allow up to 10
sec after button is pressed for fan to turn on and off. On some fan
coils, fan continues to operate for 90 sec after G signal is removed.

TO TEST PRIMARY HEATING AND HUMIDIFICATION:
HUMIDITY CONTROL FEATURES
The various humidity control features of the Thermidistat Control
Press MODE button until HEAT icon turns on. Primary heating
begins within 10 sec and remains on for 4 minutes. This will be
furnace or electric heat in AC system and heat pump heating in
heat pump system. If system has 2 stages of primary heat, first
stage will be on for 2 minutes followed by second stage for 2
minutes. At the end of 4-minute run, heating stops, and MODE
reverts back to OFF. At any time during 4-minute run time, heating
may be turned off by pressing MODE button until OFF appears.
While heating is on, successive presses of HUMIDITY button turn
humidify output on and off. While this output is active, "hu"
appears in heat set point display. Equipment outputs for different
equipment types are listed in Table 2.
are explained below. They are grouped into 2 sections: humidifi-
cation and dehumidification. At the end of each section, instruc-
tions on how to select each feature are given.
HUMIDIFICATION
The Thermidistat Control directly connects to a standard 24-vac
humidifier to control humidification in the home. A humidify set
point between 10 and 45 percent relative humidity is selected by
the homeowner, or all humidification can be turned off. When
humidity in home drops below set point, humidifier will be turned
on to raise humidity level. Humidification can only occur in
heating mode (HEAT or AUTO/HEAT). Five different humidifi-
cation selections are available and are described below.
TO TEST AUXILIARY HEATING:
1. Normal Humidify
Auxiliary heating only exists in heat pump systems. To test, press
MODE button until EHEAT icon turns on. This will be electric
heat in standard heat pump systems and furnace in dual fuel
systems. Auxiliary heating begins within 10 sec and remains on for
4 minutes. If there are 2 stages of auxiliary heat, first stage comes
on for 2 minutes followed by second stage for 2 minutes. At the
end of 4-minute run, heating stops and MODE reverts back to
OFF. At any time during 4-minute run time, heating may be turned
off by pressing MODE button until OFF appears. Actual outputs
for different equipment types are listed in Table 2.
In normal humidify, humidifier will be on if there is a
humidity demand and any heating equipment is on. This will
include furnace, heat pump, or auxiliary heat. In heat pump
applications, this is an improvement over using an external
humidistat, which only supplies humidity when auxiliary heat
is on.
2. Fan Humidify
This configuration allows a humidify demand to turn on fan
and humidifier together, even if there is no heat demand. It is
particularly useful when the furnace is oversized, resulting in
short heating cycles. It allows the humidifier to run longer,
supplying more humidity to the home. Note that fan hours will
increase, using more electricity. Also, the humidifier delivers
less moisture to cooler air than it does to heated air.
3. Auto Humidify
Step 6—Final Settings
Be sure to return DIP switch No. 4 back to OFF position to exit
installer setup mode. Assuming 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 both.
This feature is designed to eliminate the problem of sweating
windows in very cold weather. When selected, the set point is
automatically reduced by 1 percent for every drop of 2°F in
outdoor temperature between 50°F and 0°F. The set point may
be changed at any time, and it will continue to track outdoor
temperature from the new set point and current outdoor
temperature. The adjusted set point range is still limited to
between 10 and 45 percent relative humidity. To use this
feature, an outdoor temperature sensor MUST be attached. If
not, E3 error message will be displayed.
The default set points and programmed schedule conform to the
Energy Star® requirements of the U.S. Department of Energy for
both heating and cooling. These provide energy saving tempera-
ture settings. Refer to Table 3.
If programmed schedule is to be used, make sure HOLD icon is
off. This feature is turned on and off by HOLD button.
If fixed temperatures are desired, use HOLD button to turn on
HOLD icon. This will maintain set points, not allowing them to
change with programmed schedule.

4. Auto and Fan Humidify
The cool to dehumidify selection tells the system to operate
the compressor, within limits, when there is a dehumidify
demand even if there is no cooling demand. The limits are that
the system may overcool up to 3°, but no more, while
attempting to satisfy a dehumidify demand. Within this 3°
range, there is an additional balance between overcooling and
humidity satisfaction. When overcooling must occur, the
dehumidify set point is adjusted upward by 2 percent per
degree of overcooling. For example, a cooling set point of
76°F and a dehumidify set point of 60 percent is equivalent to
a cooling set point of 75°F and a dehumidify set point of 62
percent. This dehumidify set point change is internal to the
Thermidistat Control and is not shown on the display.
The 2 choices of AUTO and FAN can be selected together.
This provides both functions simultaneously.
5. Humidify Off
The humidify function can be turned off completely. This does
not require changing existing set points.
To Select Humidification (Between NORMAL, FAN, AUTO,
FAN and AUTO, or OFF) (See Table 4.)
Press HUMIDITY button to bring up humidity select screen. It is
indicated by "hu" or "dhu" in clock display. Successive presses
will change between "hu" and "dhu" in clock display. Select "hu"
for humidity functions. The large display shows actual humidity
level. The smaller display (in heat set point location) shows
humidity set point (Humidify Set Point) or OF (off). When
Humidity Set Point value is displayed, its value can be changed
with up and down buttons. Successive presses of MODE button
will move between 5 choices described above and each will be
indicated as shown in Table 4.
During cool-to-dehumidify demand, the compressor runs a
maximum of 10 minutes on, followed by 10 minutes off.
When the compressor turns off, the fan (G output) is also
turned off immediately. The immediate fan shutoff prevents
re-evaporation of water on the coil, improving dehumidifica-
tion. If fan is set to continuous, the G (fan on) signal is
removed for 5 minutes starting when compressor turns off.
To exit humidity select screen, press END button.
In most furnaces and fan coils, the blower operates for 90 sec
after both Y and G disappear. This 90-sec delay should be
removed, if possible, for maximum dehumidification perfor-
mance. Consult furnace or fan coil Installation Instructions to
see if delay can be disabled.
Additional Humidify Comments
The humidifier is actually turned on when humidity is 2 percent
below set point and turned off when it reaches 2 percent above set
point. This built-in hysteresis prevents humidify output from
toggling on and off when humidity level is near set point.
3. Dehumidify Off
The vacation mode provides some additional humidification func-
tions. These are specially designed to provide protection for an
unoccupied home while simultaneously minimizing energy use.
Refer to "Vacation" section for additional information.
Dehumidification can be turned off completely. This can be
done without changing existing set points.
To Select Dehumidification (Between NORMAL, COOL TO,
and OFF)
DEHUMIDIFICATION
Press HUMIDITY button to bring up humidity selections. Succes-
sive presses will show "hu" or "dhu" in clock display. Select "dhu"
for dehumidify selections. The large display shows actual humidity
level. The smaller display (in cool set point location) shows
dehumidify set point (DSP) or OF (off). When DSP value is
displayed, its value can be changed with up and down buttons.
Successive presses of MODE button moves between 3 choices
above and each will be indicated as in Table 5.
Dehumidification is done only during cooling. Depending on type
of equipment used, compressor speed, blower speed, set point
adjustment, and equipment cycling are modified to provide added
dehumidification. A dehumidification set point (separate from
humidification set point) is available to the homeowner. It can
range from 50 to 90 percent relative humidity. When actual
humidity is higher than set point, a dehumidification demand
exists. The Thermidistat Control responds by activating its dehu-
midify output. It may also control the compressor and blower,
depending on equipment type and dehumidify selection choice.
The 3 available selections are described below.
Superdehumidify (With Cool to Dehumidify)
This selection only affects cool-to-dehumidify operation. It is part
of the installer setup (see Configuration Option No. 7) and must be
made by installer. The Homeowner’s Guide does not cover this
selection. A requirement is the use of a variable-speed indoor unit
with superdehumidify capability. During cool-to-dehumidify call,
it provides maximum dehumidification by reducing airflow to a
minimum. The actual superdehumidify command from Thermidis-
tat Control to the indoor unit is a Y signal without a G signal in
addition to dehumidify signal. The indoor unit responds to this
combination by reducing the airflow to a minimum. All other
characteristics of cool to dehumidify are the same.
The amount of extra dehumidification available is very dependent
on the type of equipment in the home. Without a variable-speed
blower, the system’s ability to adjust dehumidification is very
limited.
1. Normal Dehumidify Operation
When normal dehumidify is selected, the compressor will not
turn on without a cooling demand. If dehumidify demand
exists while cooling, dehumidify output will also be active
(24vac removed). This output commands variable-speed
blowers to reduce their airflow, which improves water re-
moval from the cooled air.
Additional Dehumidify Comments
Dehumidification can be enhanced (with some efficiency loss) by
turning blower off immediately at the end of each cooling cycle
(eliminating normal 90 sec blower off delay). Where maximum

humidity removal is desired, this should be done, if possible. Fan
coils have the capability of removing this off delay, furnaces do
not. On FK or FV Fan Coils, set delay tap to 0/0. On standard fan
coils, a jumper can be cut to disable off delay. Refer to fan coil
Installation Instructions for details. If FAN is set for continuous
operation (fan ON icon displayed), G output is turned off for 5
minutes at the end of each cooling cycle as long as dehumidify
demand exists.
Carrier 58MVP Furnaces also have a DEHUM input. The DE-
HUM input acts differently depending on which style of variable-
speed furnace control you have. The older style variable-speed
furnace control DOES NOT have a DE connection while the newer
style variable-speed furnace control has a DE connection. Both of
these variable-speed furnace controls function the same except the
DEHUM logic is reversed.
On the older style variable-speed furnace controls, a field-
supplied relay is required between the Thermidistat Control
and furnace. The relay coil is connected between DHUM output
on the Thermidistat Control and COM terminal on the furnace
control. Its normally closed contact is connected between R and
DEHUM terminals on the furnace control, where the DEHUM
terminal is a spade lug located next to the transformer secondary
connections. (See Wiring Diagram Reference Chart and Fig. 21
through 24 in Wiring Diagram literature). When a dehumidify
demand exists, relay is de-energized, and normally closed contacts
supply 24vac to the furnace DEHUM terminal. As a result the
furnace control reduces the blower airflow by 15 percent.
Like humidify, dehumidify actions are initiated when humidity is
2 percent above set point and are terminated when humidity drops
to 2 percent below set point. This prevents unnecessary toggling of
dehumidify actions when humidity is near set point.
The vacation mode contains additional dehumidify features de-
signed to protect an unoccupied home. Refer to the "Vacation"
section for additional information.
With any dehumidify selection, if the system has a 2-speed
compressor (DIP switch No. 2 is ON) and does NOT have a
variable-speed blower (Configuration Option No. 5 set to OFF), all
cooling will be done at high speed while dehumidify demand
exists. This is because the combination of 2-speed compressor
without variable-speed blower generally has poor water removal
on low speed.
On newer style variable-speed furnace controls, a field-
supplied relay IS NOT required. The DHUM output on the
Thermidistat Control is instead connected directly to the DEHUM
terminal on the furnace control, where the DEHUM terminal is a
spade lug located next to the transformer secondary connections.
In addition the DE jumper located next to the DEHUM terminal
must be removed to enable the DEHUM input. (See Wiring
Diagram Reference Chart and Fig. 25 through 28 in Wiring
Diagram literature). When a dehumidify demand exists the furnace
control reduces the blower airflow by 21 percent.
Dehumidify Output and Equipment Connections
When there is a dehumidify demand, dehumidify output is
activated, which means that a 24-vac signal is removed from the
DHUM output terminal. In other words, dehumidify output logic is
reversed — output is turned ON when no dehumidify demand
exists and is turned OFF when demand exists. This logic reversal
has come about from historical use of a standard humidistat to do
dehumidification. The humidistat contacts open on high humidity,
thus removing a 24-vac signal to initiate dehumidification. Equip-
ment has been designed to operate in this manner, so the
Thermidistat Control must now accommodate the existing equip-
ment.
VACATION
A vacation selection is available specifically for times where the
home will not be occupied for an extended period. For conve-
nience, 1 button selects vacation mode which is indicated by OUT
icon on display. Vacation mode also has an automatic hold,
meaning that set points are not affected by the programmed
schedule. While in vacation mode, the system provides tempera-
ture and humidity protection for the home in all seasons, but not
comfort.
Carrier FK and FV Series Variable-Speed Fan Coils, all 58UHV
and 58UXV 80% Variable-Speed Furnaces, and 58MVP 90%
Variable-Speed Furnaces with the DE connection have dehumidify
inputs which connect directly to Thermidistat Control DHUM
output. They are compatible with the reverse logic output and will
reduce their cooling CFM by approximately 20 percent when a
dehumidify demand is present.
Vacation Set Points
A special set of temperature and humidity set points exists which
are active in vacation mode. They are adjustable by the home-
owner, are exclusively for vacation mode, and are remembered
from 1 vacation selection to the next. These set points will be
higher for cool and dehumidify and lower for heat and humidify
than those of occupied mode.
The FK and FV Series Fan Coils have a terminal marked DH
which should be connected to the Thermidistat Control DHUM
output. Jumper J1 on fan coil MUST be removed. It is located
behind the DH terminal. Additionally blower delay tap on fan coil
should be set to 0/0 (no ON delay and no OFF delay) when using
cool to dehumidify. With this selection, the blower stops when G
signal is removed, preventing re-evaporation of water from the coil
which would occur during the normal 90 sec blower off delay. (See
Wiring Diagram Reference Chart and Fig. 5 through 8 in Wiring
Diagram literature).
Vacation Humidification
Normal humidify is available, using vacation set points. Humidi-
fication by fan only is not available as vacation selection. Auto
humidification is available, adjusting its set point with outdoor
temperature the same as when occupied. The maximum humidity
set point can be adjusted separately from the occupied value, but
it must always be less than occupied value. This allows humidi-
fication to track outdoor temperature identically, whether occupied
or vacation, but allows maximum humidification to be less when
unoccupied. Vacation humidification can be turned off indepen-
dently of occupied humidification.
On 58UHV and 58UXV Furnaces, a green wire marked DHUM is
connected to a spade lug which is connected to the G input
terminal. Unplug spade lug, cut off spade receptacle from wire
end, and splice a wire between green DEHUM wire and Thermi-
distat Control DHUM terminal. (See Wiring Diagram Reference
Chart and Fig. 17 through 20 in Wiring Diagram literature).

be different from that of occupied. Vacation dehumidification
selection and set points are remembered the next time vacation is
used.
HUMIDIFY AND DEHUMIDIFY INDICATORS
The humidity screen (selected by pressing the HUMIDITY button)
uses the same triangles referenced in the above paragraph to
indicate the state of the HUM and DHUM outputs. When
humidification or dehumidification is active, the triangle under its
set point is turned on.
Cool to dehumidify operates slightly differently, allowing the
home to be cooled to as low as 70°F when trying to achieve
dehumidify set point. The balance between dehumidify and
temperature set point adjustments is 1 percent set point increase
per degree of overcooling for temperatures below 76°F. For
example, at 74°F dehumidify set point is raised 2 percent, and at
72°F dehumidify set point is raised 4 percent. At temperatures
above 76°F, dehumidify set point is not changed.
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 set point is changed, 20-minute
requirement is deleted.

displayed. Replace Thermidistat Control.
E5 — If Thermidistat Control cannot properly read humidity, E5
will be displayed. Replace Thermidistat Control.
E6 — If defrost cycle continues for longer than 15 minutes. E6
will be displayed. Check heat pump wiring or for failed
heat pump defrost control.
HEAT/COOL SET POINTS (DESIRED TEMPERATURE)
A minimum difference of 2° 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 14.
SMART RECOVERY
With Smart Recovery selected, transition out of setback begins a
fixed time period before selected recovery time and gradually
adjusts room temperature so desired temperature will be achieved
at selected recovery time. The fixed time period is 1.5 hr. It
operates in both heating and cooling. This only applies to
programmable operation.
EQUIPMENT ON INDICATORS
When cooling equipment is on, a COOL icon preceded by a small
triangle is displayed below cool set point. While cooling equip-
ment turn on is delayed by a staging or cycle timer, triangle will
flash. The same is true for HEAT icon and its preceding triangle
