T8775A,C The Digital Round™
Non-Programmable Thermostats
APPLICATION
The T8775A and T8775C Thermostats provide single-stage,
non-programmable temperature control for 24 Vac systems
with manual changeover from heat to cool.
The T8775A controls 2-wire heating-only systems.
The T8775C controls gas, oil or electric heating and cooling
systems.
FEATURES
• Attractive styling complements any decor.
• Simple to use. Turn the dial to adjust the setpoint
temperature.
• Large easy-to-read display. The temperature reading is
easily seen from a distance.
• Backlit display. On-demand backlighting makes it easy
to read the display in a dark room or hallway.
• No batteries required. The setpoint temperature is held
permanently in memory in the event of a power failure.
• Powered through heating-cooling system controls.
• System and Fan switches on the T8775C model.
• Manual changeover from heat to cool on T8775C
model.
• Easy installation and set up saves time and increases
installer productivity.
• Easily configurable by the use of DIP switches.
• Fahrenheit or Celsius temperature display for added
flexibility.
• Selectable heating cycle rates (1, 3, 6, 9 CPH) for a
variety of applications.
• Cooling cycle rate is fixed at 3 CPH. This is the
standard compressor setting.

Separate Wallplate from Thermostat
1. Place your thumbs on top of the thermostat and wall-
plate. Use your thumbs to pull the thermostat away from
the wallplate. See Fig. 3.
Fig. 3. Separate wallplate from thermostat.
Mount Wallplate to Wall
NOTE: Level wallplate for appearance only. The thermostat
functions normally even when not mounted level.
Mount wallplate to wall (See Fig. 4) as follows:
Fig. 4. Mount wallplate to wall.
1. Pull the thermostat wires through the wiring hole on the
wallplate.
2. Use a pencil to mark the center of the screw holes on
the left and right sides of the wallplate.
3. Remove the wallplate from the wall and drill two 3/16 in.
(5 mm) holes in the wall (if drywall) at the locations you
marked. For materials such as plaster, drill 7/32 in.
(6 mm) holes where marked.

5. Pull the thermostat wires through the wiring hole on the
wallplate and reposition the wallplate over the wall
anchors.
6. Attach the wallplate to the wall with the screws pro-
vided.
7. After wiring the wallplate, plug the hole to prevent drafts
from affecting the thermostat; see Wiring section.
WIRING
IMPORTANT
Use 18-gauge wire to wire the T8775A,C
Thermostats.
All wiring must comply with local electrical codes and
ordinances. Disconnect the power supply to prevent electrical
shock or equipment damage.
NOTE: To ensure proper mounting of thermostat, restrict all
wiring to the shaded area. See Fig. 5.
Fig. 5. Restrict T8775 wiring to shaded area.
The shape of the terminals permits insertion of straight or
wraparound wiring connections; either method is acceptable.
See Fig. 6.
Fig. 6. T8775 wiring connections.
Refer to Fig. 7 through 11 for typical wiring diagrams.

Setting Fuel Switch (T8775C only)
The fuel switch is preset at the factory in the F position. See
Fig. 12. This is the correct setting for gas or oil systems. If the
T8775C is being installed on an electric heat system, or a heat
pump, set the switch to the E position. The E position allows
the fan to turn on immediately with the heating equipment in a
system where the G terminal is connected.

DIP Switch
To adjust the heat cycle rate or the Fahrenheit/Celsius
temperature display, locate DIP switch 1, 2 and 3 on the back
of the thermostat. See Fig. 13.

circulation.
FEATURES AND OPERATION
Features and operation of The Digital RoundTM Thermostat (see
Fig. 15 and 16):
•Simple to use. Turn the dial to adjust the temperature
setting.
•Large easy-to-read display. The temperature reading is
easily seen from a distance.
•Backlit display. On-demand backlighting makes it easy to
read the display in a dark room or hallway.
•No batteries required. The temperature setting is held
permanently in memory in the event of a power failure.

Backlit Display
Push the backlight button to turn on the backlight (See Fig.
15).
Display Temperature Setpoint
1. Turn the dial one click to display the temperature set-
point. An indicator points to Set when the tempera-
ture setpoint is displayed (see Fig.17).
Fig. 17. Temperature setpoint display.
2. If a change to the temperature setpoint is not made
within five seconds, the display will switch to the current
room temperature. An indicator points to Room
when the room temperature is displayed (see Fig. 18).

Adjust Temperature Setpoint
Turn the dial clockwise to raise the temperature setpoint. Turn
the dial counterclockwise to lower the temperature setpoint
(see Fig. 16).
Power Stealing
The T8775 thermostat steals power from R and W or Rc and
Y depending on the system switch position. See Table 3.
Table 3. T8775 Power Stealing.
The T8775 Thermostat only operates when mounted on the
wallplate with 24 Vac applied. Batteries are not required for
operation because the temperature setpoint is permanently
retained in memory.
Sequence of Operations
See Table 4 for Sequence of Operations.
Table 4. Sequence of Operations.
a If fuel switch is set to E, both W and G are energized in a call for heat.
CHECKOUT
Cooling (T8775C only)
CAUTION
Low Temperature Hazard.
Operating at too low of an outdoor temperature
may cause compressor damage.
Do not operate cooling if outdoor temperature is below
50°F (10°C). Refer to manufacturer’s
recommendations.
Minimum Off-Timer
The minimum off-timer in the T8775C Thermostat assures
that the cooling compressor does not turn on for at least five
minutes after it turns off. The snowflake will flash in the display
if there is a call for cooling during the 5-minute off-time.
The following activates the 5-minute minimum-off timer:
• Initial startup
• Power interruption
• Compressor turns off:
— Setpoint is raised above the room temperature
— System switch is changed from the cool mode
— Thermostat ends the call for cooling
NOTE: The 5-minute minimum-off timer does not apply to
heating.
1. Slide the system switch to COOL and the fan switch to
AUTO.
2. Lower the temperature setpoint several degrees below
the room temperature.
3. A snowflake will appear in the display and the cool-
ing should turn on.
4. Raise the temperature setpoint several degrees above
the room temperature.
5. The snowflake will disappear from the display and
the cooling should turn off.
Heating
1. Slide the system switch to HEAT and the fan switch to
AUTO (T8775C only).
2. Raise the temperature setpoint several degrees above
the room temperature.
3. A flame will appear in the display and the heat should
turn on.
4. Lower the temperature setpoint below the room temper-
ature.
5. The flame will disappear from the display and the
heat should turn off.
Fan
1. Slide the system switch to OFF and the fan switch to
ON. The fan should run continuously.
2. Slide the fan switch to AUTO. The fan should turn off.
NOTE: Make sure that all equipment responds properly to
the thermostat.
