If the heating pad has its own single temp thermostat, how does the temp control sense the pad temp and override the build in control?

The pad is set for a certain max temp but the controller is basically a rheostat (dimmer switch) that reduces the amount of current going to the pad.

This device is a rheostat, not a thermostat. It cannot sense the pad's temperature. A rheostat is not as intelligent as a thermostat. A thermostat involves feedback (such as of the pad's temperature). It sounds like this is not the device for you.

The adjustment is automatic. There are two internal relays which close the heating or cooling circuit automatically when the temperature is outside the bounds you set. With this setup, it is impossible to have both heating and cooling circuits closed at the same time.

Go to the Installer Mode on your thermostat, and set variable 340 to one of the following:0 - Display temp. at thermostat location only1 - Display temp. at indoor sensor location(s)2 - Average between thermostat & sensor location(s)When you change the setting, you should notice the temperature read-out change based on what was selected.Unfortunately there is no way to read the individual sensor if you have several. These can only work as one external sensor, or an average of 4 sensors, but nothing in between.

With auto changeover, the thermostat automatically switches itself from heating to cooling, or vise versa, based on the setpoints. When setting up the thermostat you have to enter both a cooling setpoint and a heating setpoint. The thermostat will also prevent the user from setting the cooling setpoint lower than the heating setpoint. If it did, the thermostat would get confused and not know what mode it should operate. The temperature difference between the heat mode and the cool mode is known as the deadband. Almost all auto changeover thermostats have a minimum deadband of two degrees. So the cooling setpoint must be at least 2 degrees warmer than the heating setpoint. Additionally, most thermostats today allow the contractor to adjust this deadband (the most common setting is 4 degrees). As an example, let's say the building owner wants a cooling setpoint of 72 degrees, with a 4 degree deadband; the maximum heating setpoint the thermostat will allow is 68 degrees. http://www.altenergymag.com/emagazine.php?issue_number=05.10.01&article=stats

No thermostat can possibly control two zones. The whole purpose of having more than one zone is that the thermostats are in separate places and can regulate the heat independently. So since this is one tstat that is in only one place, it can't do that. Buy two and you are good. Or if you are cheap, you can wire one tstat to run 2 systems, but you've then just turned your multizone system into a single zone system.

The thermostat is attached to the unit. Unfortunately, the thermostat is of little value since it does not measure the room temperature. You may want to set it at "99" all of the time and turn it down if you are too warm. The T400 thermostat displays the temperature at the end of the temperature probe, and is typically and probably different than the ambient air throughout the room. The numeric reading on the T400 thermostat should be thought of more as a scale. In that, if the thermostat is set at a specific numeric value, and you are still cold, then you should increase the setting up to "99". If you are too warm in the room, then the setting should be decreased accordingly. When the heater is turned on, it will run until the temperature probe reaches a measurement of 72 degrees. Once it is turned on, it first reads 72 degrees, and then after 3 seconds, it will display the temperature at the end of the temperature probe. (And while that reading is accurate, it is typically and probably different than the ambient air throughout the room.)

You get the heating pad, the thermostat and the probe for under you mattress to let the thermostat know what the temp. of the mattress is.

No built in thermostat. Haven't put a thermometer on it, but it is hot enough that you would want to hold onto it for more than few seconds. Won't cause an immediate contact burn, but you don't want anything flammable within a few feet of the unit.

Hi there! No, you may just cap-off the sensor wire and the thermostat will control the temp.

There is s thermostat that regulates the temp, but no hi lo. The padding is foam.

No. My control unit has 4 buttons below the display. But this might indicate that mine is an older model as it also lacks a low control temperature of 88 F, the lowest temperature I can set mine at is 113 F. We are pleased with our pad.

When installed properly & if unit is operating as it should, the sensor turns on the the heating element when the pipe goes below a certain temperature & warms the pipe to prevent freezing.

When the A is ON the thermostat is controlling heat. Use + or - to set desired temp. When the A is OFF, the heater is simply on and heating away. If it's in a small room (10x10 say) it can easily heat that space to 90 degrees. So use the thermostat.

It has a manual on/off but does have its own thermostat. The pad does not heat up like a "human" heating pad. It maintains a comfortable temperature based on the pet's body temp. It never feels "hot" to the touch. I don't know if it would work with an external timer. It may have to be manually turned on & off. I could give it a try & let you know later.

I do not think it does. I will also add that the unit I have has a very narrow temperature control range. While it maintains a constant thermostat reading, say 68 degrees, my HVAC cycles on and off repeatedly during the hour. I can turn the unit off and the indoor temp will take quite a while to actually rise or lower by one degree so the sensor seems to be triggering within tenths of a degree. This is too narrow a range for me and I am looking for a different thermostat that isn't quite so sensitive to temp changes.

It will heat the room. The sensor is under the flooring, in my case under the tile. Once the material around the thermostat reaches the programmed temperature, it will shut off. The controller on the wall does sense ambient temperature and will display both floor and ambient temperature

There is no set key for heating and cooling. There are separate relay dry contact terminals for heating and cooling. Program the temperature you want, and the span on how much difference before contact opens again. When the sensed temperature is at or above the setpoint, the cooling contact closes, and below the setpoint the heating contact closes. This capability allows the cooling and heating to activate separate devices. However, if you want them to control the same device, no problem, wire the outputs together.
