Issue / Problem

13

The icomfort thermostat shows
an error code related to the out-
door sensor and or the DAS
even after removing these op-
tional accessories.

The outdoor sensor and
discharge sensor are op-
tions, however if the sys-
tem was setup with the
sensor in place, the icom-
fort system will see an
open sensor reading if it is
disconnected.

− Disconnect the outdoor sensor or discharge sensor.
− Using the installer program, reset the system by select-

ing 

setup

 tab and follow the screen prompts as the ther-

mostat goes through a new 

system discovery

.

14

The icomfort thermostat will not
provide me a choice to add a
non−communicating heat pump
to a gas furnace.

The icomfort system does
not have the ability to con-
trol a non−communicating
heat pump on a dual fuel
system.

Replace the icomfort thermostat with a conventional ther-
mostat that has a dual fuel control mode (e.g. Lennox
ComfortSense

 7000).

15

During 

system discovery

, the

thermostat displays a message

Thermostat is unable to com-
municate to system compo-
nents

.

The thermostat was not
successful in communicat-
ing to the indoor unit.

− Verify the indoor unit has a icomfort communicating con-

trol.

− Check wiring connections at R, i+, i− and C at the indoor

unit and thermostats.

− Check R, i+. I− , C wires for open/shorts.

16

Temperature or humidity calibra-
tion does not respond to calibra-
tion changes.

Temperature/Humidity cal-
ibration changes will
change display 1ºF or 1%
RH every 3 minutes.

Allow the system to stabilize and complete the calibration
mode due to the time delay. A 5ºF calibration change will
take 15 minutes to calibrate the display.

17

The installer adjustable settings
used to configure the system are
not listed in the equipment tab
under the 

Thermostat

 

49W95

(only 

Temp Reading Calibra-

tion 

and 

Humidity Reading

Calibration 

are listed as menu

items).

The adjustable system
configuration settings are
listed in the 

equipment

 tab

under 

System 49W95

.

− In the installer program select the 

equipment

 tab and

choose 

System 49W95

 from system device and press

edit

.

− Over 25 installer adjustable settings are provided includ-

ing balance point, humidification control, dehumidification
modes, stage differentials and delays.

18

During the cooling mode the dis-
played air volume on the indoor
control is substantially lower than
expected.

The system may be follow-
ing "the cooling ramping"
profile or may be in the de-
humidification mode".

− During the default cooling ramping profile the blower will

run for 7.5 minutes at 82% of the cooling air volume. If
the "cooling ramping profile" is selected, the system will
ramp to 100% after 7.5 minutes.

− The dehumidification mode will run the system at 70% of

the cooling air volume which will be in addition to the air
volume reduction provided during the ramping profile.
During the dehumidification mode, a "

d

" will be displayed

on the furnace or air handler control.

19

The Indoor unit is not providing
the expected air volume accord-
ing to the cfm shown on the in-
door unit control.

− Indoor unit air volume set-

tings in the icomfort ther-
mostat are not correct.

− System is operating in the

cooling mode and follow-
ing the cooling ramping
profile or dehumidification
air volume.

− In the installer program select the 

equipment

 tab and

choose the furnace or air handler from the

 system de-

vices 

list and press 

edit

. Verify/set the correct air volume

for heating and cooling modes.

− If in the cooling mode check for cooling ramp mode or

dehumidification mode as in #18.

20

− No second stage cooling is pro-

vided on a icomfort outdoor
unit.

− Space temperature is above

second stage differential and
has run is first stage a long
time.

− No red 

Critical Alert

 icon or

alert is displayed in the home-
owner 

alert

 tab.

The red

 Critical Alert

 icon

and homeowner 

alert

 tab

do not display non−critical
alerts.

− Go to the installer program 

alert

 tab to view all alerts and

details about those alerts.

− Look for alert code 401 (LSOM Compressor Long On

Cycle) which indicates compressor ran more than 18
hours continuous and will lock out 2nd stage compres-
sor.

− Cycle indoor power off and back on, alert code 401 will

clear within a few minutes.
