Random Start OperationRandom Start Operation
This feature causes a 2 to 30 second delay before energizing
the thermostat outputs after any of these events:
Loss of Power to the thermostat: When power to the thermostat
is interrupted and then restored, Random Start will lockout the
outputs of the thermostat for a random amount of time. This
delay helps to keep multiple thermostats from energizing their
outputs at the same time after a power outage.
Closure of the Dry Contact to force Heat, Cool or Auto Modes:
If step #24 (page 14.3) is programmed for Override, then
Random Start will lockout all outputs of the thermostat for a
random amount of time when a Dry Contact closure occurs
(depending on step #23, page 14.2). This delay helps to keep
multiple thermostats from energizing their outputs each time the
Dry Contact is used.
