Introduction

The FCP-NA-701 and FCP-PA-701 are non-connected Fan Coil Unit (FCU) and Package Terminal Air Conditioning (PTAC) Thermostats. The FCP-NA-701 is non-programmable and the FCP-PA-701 is programmable up to seven days. The FCP thermostats are compatible with 2-pipe and 4-pipe FCU, conventional PTAC, and heat pump PTAC with or without auxiliary heat. The FCP thermostats feature an LCD display with white LED backlight.

The FCP Programmable Fan Coil or PTAC Thermostat without Fan (FCP-PA-701-NF) is a new FCP model designed for 2-pipe or 4-pipe FCU with independent fan control, or radiant type under floor heat-only applications that do not require a fan control output from the thermostat.

Ex-factory reset

You can reset the thermostat through the Ex-Factory Reset function. To reset the thermostat, complete the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Press Mode to set the thermostat to OFF mode.
  2. Press and hold Mode and Fan for 5 seconds to access the advanced settings menu.
  3. Press Up to navigate to 99, then press Mode to enter the menu.

    Alternatively, you can access the Ex-Factory Reset menu directly when the thermostat is in OFF mode. To do this press and hold Mode, Fan, and Up for 5 seconds.

  4. Press Up or Down to change the menu option to Yes.
  5. Press Mode to confirm and reset the thermostat.

Results

Your thermostat resets to the factory settings. An ex-factory reset deletes all stored data on the thermostat including temperature preferences, schedules, and any other adjusted settings.

Frost and Overheat Protection

The frost and overheat protection is set to ON by default. You can set the frost protection temperature and overheat protection temperature in the installer configuration settings. Frost Protection calls for heat whenever the temperature is below the frost protection limit. The thermostat switches to OFF mode when the temperature reaches 2°F above the frost protection temperature.

Overheat Protection calls for cool whenever the temperature is above the overheat protection limit. The thermostat switches to OFF mode when the temperature returns 2°F below the overheat protection temperature.

Key Lock

You can lock the thermostat with the key lock function. Users cannot adjust settings when the key lock is active. To activate key lock, complete the following step:

Procedure

Press and hold the Mode, Up, and Down buttons for 10 seconds to lock the thermostat.

Follow the same step to deactivate the key lock.

Remote Sensor Location

If the thermostat detects a remote temperature sensor you can set the remote sensor location to in room or in duct. If the remote sensor location is in room the fan turns off when you do not switch on the fan and the temperature control algorithm does not call for fan. If the remote sensor location is in duct, the lowest available fan speed is low. This means that the fan runs on low speed even when you do not switch on the fan and the temperature control algorithm does not call for fan.

Pipe Sensor (2-pipe FCU only)

The pipe sensor is available for 2-pipe FCU systems only. The pipe state can either be hot or cold and can be set by the pipe sensor temperature, pipe state calendar, or manually.

Pipe Sensor Temperature

When a pipe sensor is installed, a comparison of the pipe sensor temperature with the heat to cool threshold and cool to heat threshold temperatures determines the pipe state. If the pipe sensor temperature is higher than the cool to heat threshold then the pipe state is hot. If the sensor temperature is lower than the heat to cool threshold then the pipe state is cold. You can configure the heat to cool threshold and cool to heat threshold in the system configuration settings menu.

The pipe sensor temperature is measured every 5 minutes when either one of the following conditions is met:
  • The Y terminal is turned on for 5 minutes during normal call for heating or cooling
  • Purge sequence

Purge Sequence

During a purge sequence, the thermostat turns on the Y terminal for 6 minutes, but does not turn on the G terminal. The purge sequence is available only if the system type is 2-pipe FCU and when the pipe sensor is installed, and runs under the following conditions:
  • On the first power-up
  • After you enter and exit the advanced settings menu
  • In a regular timing interval

When the purge sequence runs, an hourglass icon shows on the thermostat display for 6 minutes until the purge sequence is complete. During the purge sequence, you cannot change the thermostat operation such as change the control mode and set temperature. However, you can enter the advanced settings menu.

You can configure the purge frequency in the system configuration settings menu.

Calender Based Switching (FCP-PA only)

Calendar based switching is available only on the FCP-PA model and if a pipe sensor is not installed. With calendar based switching you can set a date on which the pipe state switches from hot to cold and from cold to hot. You can set the heat to cool day on a date between 1 March and 31 May. You can set the cool to heat day on a date between 1 September and 30 November. You can configure the heat to cool day and cool to heat day in the system configuration settings menu.

Setting the Pipe State Manually

If you did not install a pipe sensor and calendar-based switching is not available, you can configure the pipe state manually.

Procedure

  1. Press Mode to set the thermostat to OFF mode.
  2. Press and hold Mode and Fan for 5 seconds to access the advanced settings menu.
  3. Press Up to navigate to SS, then press Mode to enter the menu.

    Alternatively, you can access the pipe state menu directly when the thermostat is in OFF mode. To do this press and hold Fan and Up for 5 seconds.

  4. Press Mode to navigate to 31.
  5. Use the Up and Down buttons to set the pipe state value and press Mode to confirm the change.

Auto Deadband

The Auto deadband is the threshold above and below the set temperature to determine the auto change-over line, and to start the control model to switch from heat mode to cool mode or from cool mode to heat mode. Auto deadband is available only if the control mode is heat and cool with auto. The default Auto deadband value is 4.0°F (2.22°C). You can configure the Auto deadband value to 2.0°F (1.11°C), 3.0°F (1.67°C), 4.0°F (2.22°C), or 5.0°F (2.78°C) in the installer configuration settings menu.

Minimum Off Time

After load of the heating or cooling system is switched off then load does not turn on again for 5 minutes. If the thermostat tries to turn on heat or cool during the minimum off time period, the wait icon flashes. The minimum off time is disabled by default. You can enable the feature in the installer configuration settings menu.

Minimum Off Time

The minimum on time applies to any heat or cool mode. After load of the heating or cooling system is switched on it does not turn off until the minimum on time period elapses. A change of set temperature or control mode resets the minimum on time counter. You can set the minimum on time from 0 minutes to 5 minutes in the installer configuration settings menu. The default minimum on time is 4 minutes.

Emergency Heat (Heat pump PTAC only)

When enabled, the emergency heat engages only if the ambient temperature is lower than the set temperature. When the thermostat is in heat or cool mode, press Mode for 5 seconds to enable emergency heat. Follow the same step to disable emergency heat.

Unoccupied mode

The dry-contact input can trigger the unoccupied mode. You can also configure the polarity of the dry contact to normally open or normally closed in the IS menu.

Alternatively, you can manually enable or disable the unoccupied mode. Press and hold Mode for 5 seconds to manually enable or disable the unoccupied mode.

You can set the unoccupied action to setpoint change or off mode. When you select setpoint change, the thermostat uses the unoccupied setpoints when the unoccupied mode is triggered. When you select off mode, the thermostat switches to off mode when the unoccupied mode is triggered.

Use the Time delay from occupied to unoccupied mode feature to set a delay for the change of mode. The thermostat waits the specified amount of time before it triggers the unoccupied action. You can manually override the unoccupied mode to occupied mode. Set the Override timer from unoccupied to occupied mode by button press to 1-24 to enable override. You can override the unoccupied mode in time periods from one up to 24 hours.

Setting the temperatures

About this task

You can set the heat and cool temperatures when the thermostat is in Hold mode or Schedule mode. Schedule mode is available on the FCP-PA model only.

Procedure

To change the temperature set point, press Up or Down.

Results

If the thermostat is in Hold mode, the thermostat runs on the set temperature until you change the set point. If the thermostat is in Schedule mode, the thermostat runs on the override temperature until the next scheduled period.

Temperature swing

About this task

The temperature swing is the threshold above and below the set temperature at which the heating or cooling cuts-in or cuts-out. The default swing value is ±0.50°F. You can set the swing value to ±0.25°F, ±0.50°F, ±1.00°F, or ±2.25°F. A smaller swing value means the thermostat responds faster to temperature changes, and a more frequent switching of heating or cooling output. A larger swing value can help with short cycling. For example, if the system heats up and cools down fast, then you can use a greater swing value to reduce the frequency of switching cycles.

To change the temperature swing value, complete the following steps:

Auto changover mode

In auto changeover mode, the control algorithm checks the ambient temperature with the heat and cool temperature for every control cycle.
  • If the ambient temperature is higher than the changeover line for cool mode, it switches the control mode to COOL.
  • If the ambient temperature is lower than the changeover line for heat mode, it switches the control mode to HEAT.
  • If the ambient temperature is in between:
    • Cool set temperature – Auto deadband and Heat set temperature + Auto deadband, the thermostat switches the control mode to OFF, given that Cool set temperature - Heat set temperature is larger than two times the Auto deadband, where Auto deadband is settable option
    • Otherwise the thermostat keeps the previous control mode for temperature control algorithm

The minimum switching duration after autochange of the control mode is 20 minutes.

Sensor detection and fault detection

The FCP thermostat detects the remote temperature sensor and pipe temperature sensor during the thermostat power-up and run-time. The pre-configuration profile defines whether the remote and pipe sensors are required in the system or not.

If the remote temperature sensor is installed, then the remote temperature sensor reading is used instead of the internal temperature sensor.

If the on-board sensor stops to function correctly, the sensor error flashes on the display. All heating and cooling outputs go to off until the sensor value is back in normal working range.

If the remote sensor stops functioning correctly or is removed, the remote sensor error flashes on the display. All heating and cooling outputs go to off until the sensor value is back in working range. The thermostat does not switch back to use the on-board sensor automatically. Check and reinstall the remote sensor correctly in order to resume the thermostat operation.

If the pipe sensor stops functioning correctly or is removed, the pipe sensor error flashes on the display. All heating and cooling outputs turns off until the sensor value is back in working range. This applies to the 2-pipe FCU system only.

You can recover the remote sensor and pipe sensor from error state under the following operations:
  • Power cycle the thermostat
  • After you enter and exit the installer setting menu
