What should I set Cycles Per Hour to?
What should I set Cycles Per Hour to? In almost all cases, you should leave Cycles Per Hour at 4. What are the configuration options? 4 (Default): The thermostat will target four cycles per hour to maintain the heating or cooling set-point. 1 – 3: Decreases the cycles per hour target by expanding the deviation […]
What should I set Anticipation Degrees to?
What should I set Anticipation Degrees to? In almost all cases, you should leave Anticipation Degrees at 0.1°F. What are the configuration options? 0.1°F (default): Mechanical cooling will disable when the room temperature is 0.1°F above the cool set point and mechanical heating will be disabled when the room temperature is 0.1°F degrees below the […]
What should I set a thermostat’s System Type to?
What should I set a thermostat’s System Type too? System Type changes when or why the Pelican thermostat’s enables its outputs. Conventional HVAC Units: Conventional air conditioners generally have separate cooling sources from their heating sources. For this reason, conventional air conditions are often packages of one or multiple compressors, chilled water valves and a […]
What should I set a thermostat’s Reversing Valve to?
What should I set a thermostat’s Reversing Valve to? This thermostat configuration is only settable for thermostats whos System Type is set to Heat Pump. This configuration can be found in the Pelican Web-App > Admin > Thermostat Configuration > ‘select any thermostat‘ > System Settings > System Type. Reversing Valve: A reversing valve is […]
What is the difference between Auxiliary and Emergency Heat?
What is the difference between Auxiliary and Emergency Heat? Auxiliary Heat: An auxiliary heating source acts as secondary heating source (normally electric) and is enabled similar to a second stage of heating. Emergency Heat: An emergency heating source acts as a back-up heating source and will only be enabled if the Heat Pump’s primary heating […]
What is Heat Range?
What is Heat Range? Heat Range sets how far up and down the thermostat allows its heat set point to be placed. For example, a 56° F to 73° F range means the thermostat will allow its heat set point to be changed from 56° F at its lowest and 73° F at its highest. […]
What is Fan Circulation Minutes?
What is Fan Circulation Minutes? Fan Circulation Minutes tells the thermostat to monitor how long the fan has run each hour. If the fan has not run for the configured minimum minutes required, the thermostat will automatically enable the fan until the required fan circulation minutes has been met. This configuration can be found in […]
What is Cool Range?
What is Cool Range? Cool Range sets how far up and down the thermostat allows its cool set point to be placed. For example, a 70°F to 80°F cool range means the thermostat will allow its Cool set point to be set from 70°F at its lowest and 80°F at its highest. What are the […]
What is Compressor Lockout?
What is Compressor Lockout? Compressor Lockout Compressor Lockout can be used to prevent the compressors from turning on based on an outside temperature. Note: The Compressor Lockout configuration is only available if your Pelican Solution has at least one outside temperature sensor part of the overall system. You will need to send a request to […]
What is CO2 Ventilation?
What is CO2 Ventilation? This sets at what CO2 level the thermostat will start a Demand Ventilation cycle at. What are the configuration options? 800 PPM (default): If the CO2 levels raise above 800 PPM, a demand ventilation cycle will start. Settable Range is 400 to 2000 PPM: The lower you set your CO2 Ventilation level the […]
