TrolMaster Hydro-X Thermostat Station TS-2

Purpose:
The TS-2 Thermostat Station is designed to replace a traditional thermostat for a range of HVAC systems, including heat pumps and multi-stage systems. It integrates with the TrolMaster Hydro-X controller system to manage temperature settings and operational delays for up to four HVAC systems.

Key Features:

• HVAC System Compatibility:

  • Versatility: Compatible with a wide variety of HVAC systems, including:
    • Heat Pumps: Systems that can both heat and cool.
    • Multi-Stage Systems: HVAC systems with multiple stages for heating and cooling.
    • Standard HVAC Units: Basic systems for both cooling and heating.

• Wiring and Installation:

  • Standard Low-Voltage Wiring: Connects to the HVAC system using standard low-voltage thermostat cables.
  • Color-Coded Wiring: Follows conventional color codes for easy installation.

• Programming Flexibility:

  • Day and Night Settings: Allows separate day and night temperature settings for each of up to four TS-2 modules.
  • Adjustable Delay Time: Features an adjustable delay time to manage the start-up (inrush current) of HVAC systems, which helps to prevent electrical issues and ensures safe operation.

• Firmware Updates:

  • Micro SD Card Requirements: For firmware updates on TrolMaster controllers and modules, use a Micro SD card with a capacity of 32GB or less.

Package Contents:

• 1 x Thermostat Station (TS-2): The main module for controlling HVAC systems.
• 1 x 16ft RJ12 Cable: For connecting the TS-2 to the Hydro-X controller.
• 1 x 4ft RJ12 Cable: A shorter cable for additional connections.
• 1 x RJ12 T-Splitter: Allows connection of multiple devices to a single RJ12 port.

Installation Instructions:

1. Connect Wiring:

   • Attach the TS-2 to the HVAC system using the standard low-voltage thermostat wires. Ensure correct connections using the color-coded wiring.

2. Connect to Hydro-X Controller:

   • Use the 16ft RJ12 cable to connect the TS-2 to the Hydro-X controller. The 4ft RJ12 cable and RJ12 T-Splitter can be used for additional connections if needed.

3. Configure Settings:

   • Day and Night Settings: Set different temperature parameters for day and night schedules.
   • Delay Time Adjustment: Configure the delay time to manage the activation of HVAC systems and protect against inrush current.

4. Update Firmware:

   • If necessary, use a Micro SD card of 32GB or less to update the TS-2’s firmware as well as other TrolMaster devices.

Applications:

• Residential and Commercial: Suitable for both home and business environments where advanced HVAC system management is required.
• Greenhouses: Useful for managing the climate in greenhouses by controlling both cooling and heating systems.

Comparison to TS-1:

• TS-1: Designed specifically for cool-only HVAC systems.
• TS-2: Versatile, supporting heat pumps, multi-stage systems, and standard HVAC units with added features like delay time adjustment.

Summary

The TS-2 Thermostat Station is a versatile and advanced module for managing various HVAC systems through the Hydro-X controller. It provides day/night temperature settings and delay time adjustments, making it suitable for both residential and commercial applications.
