T8601D Chronotherm® IV Deluxe
Programmable Thermostats
APPLICATION
The T8601 Chronotherm® IV Deluxe Programmable
Thermostat provides electronic control of 24 Vac single-
stage heating and cooling systems. Refer to Table 1 for a
general description of the thermostat. All T8601
Thermostats require a common wire to supply power.
MERCURY NOTICE
If this control is replacing a control that contains
mercury in a sealed tube, do not place your old
control in the trash.
Contact your local waste management authority
for instructions regarding recycling and the
proper disposal of the old thermostat.
INSTALLATION
When Installing this Product...
1. Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow
the instructions can damage the product or cause
a hazardous condition.
2. Check the ratings given in the instructions and on
the product to make sure the product is suitable for
your application.
3. Installer must be a trained, experienced service
technician.
4. After completing installation, use these instructions
to check out the product operation.
Location
Install the thermostat about 5 ft (1.5m) above the floor in
an area with good air circulation at average temperature.
See Fig. 1.
Do not install the thermostat where it can be affected by:
— drafts, or dead spots behind doors and in corners.
— hot or cold air from ducts.
— radiant heat from sun or appliances.
— concealed pipes and chimneys.
— unheated (uncooled) areas such as an outside wall
behind the thermostat.

Fig. 1. Typical location of thermostat.
Wallplate Installation
The thermostat can be mounted horizontally on the wall
or on a 2 in. x 4 in. wiring box. Position wallplate
horizontally on the wall or on a 2 in. x 4 in. wiring box.
1. Position and level the wallplate (for appearance
only). The thermostat functions properly even
when not level.
Fig. 2. Mounting the wallplate.
2. Use a pencil to mark the mounting holes. See
Fig. 2.
3. Remove the wallplate from the wall and drill two
3/16 in. holes in the wall (if drywall) as marked. For
firmer material such as plaster, drill two 7/32 in.
holes. Gently tap anchors (provided) into the drilled
holes until flush with the wall.
4. Position the wallplate over the holes, pulling wires
through the wiring opening.
5. Loosely insert the mounting screws into the holes.
6. Tighten mounting screws.
WIRING
All wiring must comply with local electrical codes and
ordinances. Refer to Fig. 3 through 5 for typical hookups.
A letter code is located near each terminal for
identification.
CAUTION
Electrical Hazard.
Can cause electrical shock or equipment
damage.
Disconnect power before wiring.
1. Loosen the terminal screws on the wallplate and
connect the system wires. See Fig. 6.

Mounting Thermostat
1. Engage tabs at the top of the thermostat and wall-
plate. See Fig. 7.
2. Press lower edge of case to close and latch.
NOTES: To remove the thermostat from the wall, first pull
out at the bottom of the thermostat; remove top
last.

Using Thermostat Keys
The thermostat keys are used to:
• set current day and time,
• program times and setpoints for heating and cooling,
• temporarily override program temperatures,
• display present setting,
• configure Installer Setup,
• check Self-Test,
• display outdoor temperature (select models),
• set the system operation,
• set the fan operation.

SETTINGS
System and Fan Settings
The system default setting is Heat and the fan default
setting is Auto. Use the System and Fan keys to change
the settings. See Fig. 9. The fan settings can be set for
each program period individually. The system selection is
for all the program periods.
System settings control the thermostat operation as
follows:
Heat: The thermostat controls the heating.
Off: Both the heating and cooling are off.
Cool: The thermostat controls the cooling.
Auto: The thermostat automatically changes between
heating and cooling operation, depending on the
indoor temperature.
Fan settings control the system fan as follows:
On: Fan operates continuously.
Auto: Fan operates with equipment.
Fig. 9. Thermostat System and Fan key locations.
NOTE: Always press the keys with your fingertip or sim-
ilar blunt tool. Sharp instruments like a pen or
pencil point can damage the keyboard.
Temperature Settings
Refer to Table 2 for the default program. If the daytime
energy savings period is not used, press the period key
(Leave or Return) until the time is blank. The fan setting
feature is available on select thermostat models. See
Owners Guide, form number 69-0940, for complete
instructions on changing the program.
INSTALLER SETUP
NOTE: For most applications, the thermostat factory-
settings do not need to be changed. Review the
factory settings in Table 2 and if no changes are
necessary, go to the Installer Self-Test section.
The Installer Setup is used to customize the thermostat
to specific systems. Some of the options include
temperature display, system changeover and outdoor
temperature display. Installer Setup numbers are listed in
Table 3. The table includes all the configuration options
and the factory-settings for the T8601.
A combination of key presses are required to use the
Installer Setup feature:
— To enter the Installer Setup, press and hold the
Information i key with the increase ▲and decrease
▼keys until the first number is displayed. All display
segments appear for approximately three seconds
before the number is displayed. See Fig. 10 and 11.
