1. DIFFERENTIAL
Determines the temperature above/below the temperature
setting at which the heating or cooling equipment will turn
on. For example, a heat temperature setting of 70°F with a
differential of 2° will result in the equipment turning on and
off to maintain the temperature between 68°F and 70°F. If the
second stage differential is also 2°, the second stage would
be used to ensure the temperature did not drop below 66°.
However, once the second stage is turned on, it will stay on
until the temperature again reaches the 70° setting. The default
setting for the first stage and second stage differential is 1°.
