USING YOUR SMART Si

THERMOSTAT

The bright, easy-to-read screen on your Smart Si

thermostat makes it simple to review and adjust

the settings any time you want.

Adjusting the Temperature

You can easily adjust the temperature

without changing the Smart Si thermostat’s

programming by pressing the arrow keys when

the Home screen is displayed.

Press ▲ to increase the temperature set point

by 1°F (0.5°C).

Press ▼to decrease the temperature set

point by 1°F (0.5°C).

If the Smart Si thermostat is set to Auto mode,

The Smart Si thermostat will hold the new

temperature for the duration you speciﬁed in

the Hold Action option during the initial setup

(see Hold Action on page 15) or until you press

OK.

If you are using Auto mode, note that there is

a minimum diﬀerence allowed between heat

and cool set temperatures. The system will

prevent you from setting the temperatures

to within these limits. See the Smart Si

Thermostat Installation Manual for information

about conﬁguring the minimum temperature

diﬀerence settings.

association between your Smart Si thermostat

and your personalized Web Portal (you can also

accomplish the same thing by choosing Reset

Registration on the Smart Si thermostat itself).

You can always add another device for your new

home with the same account.

The new homeowners will need to register the

Smart Si thermostat and set up their own Web

Portal.

Taking It With You

If you’re moving and want to take the Smart Si

thermostat with you, you’ll need to re-connect

it to the Internet and update your location and

house information (select My House under the

Settings tab) .

Temperature Range

You can conﬁgure the Smart Si thermostat so

only a speciﬁc heat and/or cool set point range

is permitted.

Heat Temp Range Press ▲ or ▼ select the

maximum heat set point then press OK. Users

will not be able to set the Smart Si thermostat

to a temperature above this limit.

Cool Temp Range Press ▲ or ▼ to select

Recovery Options

Recovery options allow the Smart Si thermostat

to learn how your heating and cooling system

works, taking into account infrastructure,

weather and historical operating performance

so that your home is a comfortable temperature

as soon as you walk in the door.

Smart Recovery Heat The Smart Si

thermostat will start heating at the optimum

time to ensure the set point is reached at the

programmed time.

Smart Recovery Cool The Smart Si

thermostat will start cooling at the optimum

time to ensure the set point is reached at the

programmed time.

Random Start Heat Programming a time

in this section will produce a random delay

when there is call for heat. In applications with

multiple heating systems, this prevents all

the systems from activating at the same time

(

thus creating a peak power demand). Press ▲

or ▼ to select a delay time and then press OK.

Random Start Cool Programming a time

in this section will produce a random delay

when there is call for cooling. In applications

with multiple cooling systems, this prevents

all systems from activating at the same time,

(

thus creating a peak power demand). Press ▲

or ▼ to select a delay time and then press OK.

Utility CPP Setting

This section is only applicable if your utility

company is running a Critical Peak Pricing

program that you have agreed to be a part of.

Contact your local electrical utility company for

information about programs in your area.

CPP Response

Your utility may send voluntary events to your

Smart Si thermostat. You can choose to Always

Accept these events. In which case, you would

just be notiﬁed that an event is in progress. Or

if you choose Ask Me, when the Utility issues

an event, you will be asked if you want to

participate.

If you do not acknowledge the event prior to the

start, the system will default to yes.

Preferred Strategy

During a Critical Peak Pricing event the Utility

may select an energy saving strategy, or allow

you to use your preferred strategy. Select from

one of the options as your preferred energy

saving strategy to be used during Critical Peal

Pricing events.

Absolute Temperature Set a speciﬁc heat

and cool set point to be used when an event

is initiated by the Utility company. If the

set point at the time of the event is more

favorable (lower in heat mode or higher in

cool mode) than what you have programmed,

the Smart Si thermostat will use the more

favorable set point for the duration of the

event.

Relative Temperature Program a

temperature set back (heat) or set forward

(

cool) from your existing set point. For

example, if you program a 4 °F set forward,

and your current cool set point is 76 °F,

during an event your Smart Si thermostat set

point will change to 80 °F until the event has

expired.

System Oﬀ If this option is selected, the

Smart Si thermostat will turn oﬀ heating and

cooling for the duration of this event.

Duty Cycle This option allows you to

program the maximum amount of time the

system will run during a 1 hour period. For

example, if you select 30%, the air conditioner

will run for a maximum of 18 (0.3 x 60)

minutes regardless of whether the set point

has been met. 0% essentially turns the system

oﬀ, whereas 100% runs the system at full

capacity.

Set Up Reminders and Alerts

Your Smart Si thermostat can be programmed

to remind you of required ﬁlter changes and

regular maintenance.

To set up Reminders:

From the Home screen,

High Temp Alert

Select this item to set the temperature at which

the Smart Si thermostat will generate a High

Temperature alert. The range can be adjusted to:

Oﬀ – no alert will be generated.

Set temperature range of 60 to 104 °F (15.5

to 40°C).

Aux Heat Runtime Alert (optional)

If you have a heat pump with auxiliary heat

conﬁguration, you can program the Smart Si

thermostat to generate an alert if the auxiliary

heat runs for more than this programmed

amount of time during a 24-hour period.

Aux Outdoor Temp Alert (optional)

If you have a heat pump with auxiliary heat

conﬁguration, you can also program the Smart

Si thermostat to generate an alert if the auxiliary

heat is called for when the outdoor temperature

exceeds this programmed set point. (This

feature requires an Internet connection to

function properly.)

Display Alerts on Thermostat

Select No if you do not want any of the alerts to

be displayed on the screen. Alerts will continue

to be displayed on the Web Portal and sent via

email.

Enable Heating/Cooling Alerts

Creating Your Weekly Schedule

Your heating and cooling needs change

To view your weekly

schedule:

depending on the time of day and day of the

week. For example, if there’s no one in the house

during the workday you might want to let the

temperature go up in the summer, to reduce

energy used by the air conditioning system, and

down in the winter, to reduce heating energy.

From the Home screen,

press MENU.

Select Weekly Schedule.

Your weekly schedule is

shown on the screen.

By default, the Smart Si thermostat includes four

conﬁgurable periods:

Awake The start time of this period typically

represents when you get up in the morning.

Work This represents when you leave to go

to work.

Home This represents when you get home

from work in the evening.

Sleep This represents is when you go to bed

at night.

Weekly Schedule

We call it a Smart Si thermostat because it

learns how your home and heating and cooling

equipment perform. Intelligent algorithms

combine weather data, your HVAC equipment

run times and occupancy schedules to optimize

performance and maximize energy savings. This

means you can be comfortable when you are

home and save money when you are not.

If your schedule changes, you can quickly and

easily update the Smart Si thermostat settings

on the device itself or online through your Web

Portal.

To edit your weekly

schedule:

Using the Weekly Schedule

Display your Weekly

Schedule.

Press OK.

Select the Day.

Select the Time, Heat or

Cool Setting.

Press ▲or ▼to adjust the

the value. Press ◀ or ▶to

toggle between columns.

Press OK.

the week that will also use

the new settings. Use the

navigation keys to switch

between days and press OK

to select a day.

Schedule Editor

The Weekly Schedule editor lets you to set

speciﬁc times, temperatures and furnace fan

settings for each day of the week.

If your system is enabled for auto change-over

mode, the heat and cool set temperatures will

automatically be adjusted to ensure a minimum

diﬀerence.

Select Continue. The new

schedule is displayed on the

screen.

Adding New Periods

To add a new period:

Display the schedule for a

day and select Add New.

To accommodate for your varying schedule you

can add additional program periods in your

week. For example if you come home for lunch

during the week or want diﬀerent settings for
