Mechanical Design
Thermostat Appearance
Image of the Honeywell T6800 thermostat showing its front panel. Key controls include FAN BUTTON, POWER BUTTON, and MODE BUTTON. The display area is labeled DIGITAL DISPLAY, with UP BUTTON and DOWN BUTTON for adjustments.
LCD Display
The LCD display provides various indicators: "INDICATES THE KEYPAD IS ENTIRELY OR PARTLY LOCKED", "CURRENT FAN SETTING", "CURRENT MODE SETTING", "INDICATES THERMOSTAT IS OFF", "INDICATES ROOM TEMPERATURE", "INDICATES INSTALLER TEST", "INDICATES INSTALLER SETUP", "INDICATES THERMOSTAT IS 'CALLING' FOR HEAT OR COOL", "INDICATES THERMOSTAT IS IN FREEZING PROTECTION MODE", and "INDICATES WHETHER THERMOSTAT IS IN OCCUPIED OR NOT".
Function
Valve Control
The thermostat acquires room temperature via its integrated or external sensor and maintains the setpoint by delivering on/off valve control commands. The image shows a thermostat display with "Room 24.5°C", "Cool on", and "Occupied" status. Instructions indicate: "PRESS THE MODE BUTTON TO SELECT HEAT, COOL OR VENT".
Fan Operation
Fan speed can be selected as manual or automatic 3-speed operation. In Manual mode, the fan is switched via control outputs Gh, Gm, Gl. In automatic mode, fan speed depends on the difference between room temperature and setpoint. When room temperature reaches setpoint, the valve and fan will close. The image shows a thermostat display with "Room 24.5°C", "Cool on", and "Occupied" status. Instructions indicate: "PRESS THE FAN BUTTON TO SELECT LOW, MED, HIGH OR AUTO".
Temperature Display
The displayed temperature can be set to show either the acquired room temperature or the setpoint. This setting is made during the Installer Set-Up process.
Cycle per Hour (CPH)
To achieve more accurate temperature control, the CPH function may enable the thermostat to open the valve multiple times per hour, even when the temperature is close to the setpoint (difference less than 1/2 P-band). The default value is 4 for heating and 3 for cooling, adjustable in the Installer Set-Up process.
Remote Temperature Sensor
The T6800 provides control based on either the acquired room temperature or the return air temperature. The model for the remote temperature sensor is NTC20K.
Keypad Lock
Keypad lock can be set in ISU. The default status allows all keys to be available. Options include locking out the mode button, fan and mode buttons, or all buttons.
Fan Speed Ramping Control Algorithm
This diagram illustrates the fan speed control based on the difference between Room Temperature (RT) and Setpoint (SP). For COOL mode: >4°F difference results in high fan speed or off; 2°F-4°F difference results in medium fan speed or off; <2°F difference results in low fan speed or off. For HEAT mode: <-4°F difference results in high fan speed or off; -2°F to -4°F difference results in medium fan speed or off; < -2°F difference results in low fan speed or off.
Operating Modes
The following operating modes are available:
Comfort Mode
In comfort mode, the setpoint can be changed using the up and down buttons. Applications include cool only, heat only, and manual heat/cool changeover. The image shows a thermostat display with temperature setting controls.
Ventilation Mode
Pressing the mode button enters ventilation mode. In this mode, there is no valve output, and the fan operates according to the selected fan speed.
Energy Saving Mode
This mode can be activated by a potential-free dry contact (e.g., hotel key card) or by pressing the mode button for 3 seconds. An energy saving icon ⚡ appears on the screen. The dry contact can be configured as normal open or normal close in ISU. If activated by dry contact, all buttons are locked except the multi-key for ISU. If activated by button press, any subsequent button press stops energy saving mode. For heating, the setpoint changes to a remote setback heating setpoint (10°C-21°C, default 18°C). For cooling, it changes to a remote setback cooling setpoint (22°C-32°C, default 26°C).
On/Off Mode
Pressing the power button switches the thermostat between on and off modes. The image shows a thermostat display indicating "OFF" mode.
Freezing Protection Mode
Freezing protection can be disabled (default) or enabled. In freezing protection mode, if the thermostat is in OFF mode and the acquired temperature drops below 6°C, it will activate heat mode until the temperature rises to 8°C or the thermostat is turned on. The image shows a thermostat display indicating "OFF" and "Freeze Protect".
