Configuració i instal·lació
Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance of your Braeburn 5310 thermostat. It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified technician. Ensure all power to the HVAC system is turned off at the circuit breaker before beginning installation.
Requisits d'alimentació:
- The thermostat can be powered by 24 Volt AC (common wire required) or by two "AA" alkaline batteries (3.0 Volt DC).
- For continuous backlight and optimal performance, 24V AC power is recommended.
Muntatge i cablejat:
- Apagueu l'alimentació: Before any wiring, ensure the power to your heating and cooling system is completely off at the main circuit breaker.

- Install Sub-Base: The Braeburn 5310 features a separate sub-base. Mount this sub-base securely to the wall using the provided screws. Ensure it is level for aesthetic purposes.
- Connexions de cable: Connect the wires from your HVAC system to the corresponding terminals on the sub-base. Refer to the wiring diagram provided with your thermostat for specific connections. For systems requiring a common wire (C-wire), ensure it is connected for 24V AC power. If using battery power only, the C-wire may not be necessary, but connecting it is recommended for enhanced functionality.
- Connecteu el termòstat: Once wiring is complete and secure, carefully snap the main thermostat unit onto the sub-base.
- Insereix les piles: If using battery power, insert two fresh "AA" alkaline batteries into the battery compartment.

- No programable: Operates as a manual thermostat, maintaining a constant temperature until adjusted.
Refer to the detailed programming instructions in the full manual for setting up your desired schedule using the Speed Set programming mode.
Característiques avançades:
- Adaptive Recovery Mode (ARM): This feature learns how long it takes your system to reach programmed temperatures, activating heating or cooling early to ensure comfort at the scheduled time.
- Funció Hold: Temporarily overrides the programmed schedule to maintain a specific temperature. The duration of the "Hold" can often be adjusted.
- Bloqueig del teclat: Prevents unauthorized changes to settings. Multiple levels of lockout are available.
- Residual Cooling Fan Delay: Allows the fan to continue running for a short period after the cooling cycle ends to maximize efficiency.

| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| La pantalla del termòstat està en blanc o tènue. | No power (24V AC) or dead batteries. | Check circuit breaker for HVAC system. Replace "AA" batteries with fresh ones. Ensure C-wire is properly connected if using 24V AC. |
| System (heating/cooling) is not responding. | Incorrect system mode selected, wiring issue, or system lockout. | Verify the thermostat is set to the correct mode (Heat, Cool, Auto). Check wiring connections at the sub-base and HVAC unit. Ensure keypad lockout is not active. If the thermostat calls for heat/cool but no signal is sent to the equipment, consult a qualified technician. |
| Les lectures de temperatura semblen inexactes. | Thermostat location, sensor obstruction, or calibration needed. | Ensure the thermostat is not exposed to direct sunlight, drafts, or heat sources. Clean any dust from the thermostat vents. If issues persist, a professional may need to check calibration. |
| La pantalla és difícil de llegir. | Lighting conditions, display settings. | The blue backlight activates upon touch. Ensure adequate ambient lighting in the area where the thermostat is mounted. |
| Thermostat not holding program. | "Hold" function active, or programming error. | Deactivate the "Hold" function. Re-enter your program schedule carefully, ensuring all steps are followed. |
If these steps do not resolve the issue, please contact a qualified HVAC technician or Braeburn customer support for further assistance.
