    Exclusive Message Display Feature
    This exclusive feature allows you to retrieve text messages sent from the serial network to the thermostat. The message screen features navigation buttons to read new and old messages and delete them. Up to 16 date/time-stamped messages (80 characters max.) can be stored in the thermostat. If more than 16 messages are received, the oldest is erased to make room for the newest message. New messages will turn on and flash the Message LED and Mail Icon in the main thermostat screen.

    Easy Navigation Through System Menus
    All six buttons on the Wall Display Unit are "Soft Keys", meaning that they change functions when you change screens. The function of the buttons is defined by on-screen labels, that are dynamic and change when you change screens. This makes an intuitive and easy-to-use user interface. You move to other screens by pressing the Menu button from the main thermostat screen. A new Main Menu screen will be displayed with a list of menu functions. When a menu item is selected, a new screen will be displayed for that function.

    The Ultimate in Signal Reliability
    This high-performance thermostat receives signals using RS-485 protocols - the ultimate in signal strength and reliability! These signals are not only stronger than X10 signals, they also travel further along common Cat. 5 cable (up to 4,000 ft.). And since they run on a dedicated path, you won't have to worry about lost signals or the remote possibility of a stray signal from your neighbor's house affecting your home temperature. Nor will you have to deal with the additional expense of integrating amplifiers, couplers and repeaters into your system.

    Complete Local and Remote Control
    The thermostat consists of two components: the controller that mounts near the air handling equipment and the wall-mounted display unit, allowing you to control temperature via several easy-to-use methods. To make changes locally, simply push the buttons on the wall-mounted unit's thermostat-like user interface. For remote or automated control via RS-485 remote interfaces, simply make the adjustments from your RS-485 home control system, like CommStar Network Controllers, the Stargate or the TimeCommander Plus.

    Works With Most HVAC Systems
    This thermostat controls all standard functions of gas/electric or heatpump HVAC systems, including heating (two-stage heating on heatpump systems), cooling and fan control. It connects to HVAC systems via standard thermostat connections, and connects to the wall-display unit via a 4-wire connection (2 power, 2 data). The controller also offers fuse-protected relay outputs to the mechanical system, responds to polling requests by sending current temperature, setpoint, mode and fan status.

    The controller unit measures 6" x 4" x 2". The wall-display unit measures 5.75" x 3.5" x 1". Temperature range is 0° to 160°F. The controller requires 12VDC (24VAC is required for vent damper). Power supply included.
