Honeywell 4500 Manuel D’Utilisation

The Ademco 4500 thermostat provides control for both heat and air 
conditioning.  It is intended for use with Ademco security systems 
that include the enhanced 4286 phone module.  You can set the 4500 
thermostat using any Touch-tone phone, either on premises or 
remotely.  The 4500 thermostat is not a replacement for the existing 
thermostat, which remains in the installation, but can be selected to 
provide a “set-back” function whenever the system is in the ARMED 
AWAY mode.  The existing thermostat controls premises temperature 
while the security system is DISARMED, or in ARMED STAY mode. 

An important benefit of combined climate control and security is 
potential energy cost savings.  During the heating season, you can 
“set-back” the 4500 thermostat for times when you are away from 
home by putting the security system in the ARMED AWAY mode.  
Our set-back feature lets you turn down the thermostat when the 
house is empty automatically, when you arm the security system in 
the ARMED AWAY mode.   

During the cooling season, you can set the 4500 thermostat for a 
higher temperature than the existing thermostat for times when you 
are away from home, to save on cooling costs by putting the security 
system in the ARMED AWAY mode. 

In both cases you can call home to adjust the set-back temperature 
that is in effect while the system is in the armed away mode. 

Heat or air conditioning in vacation homes can be remotely set and 
monitored by phone.  For example, heat can be turned up at a ski 
cabin before guests arrive.  The owner can also call-in to the system to 
check that the indoor temperature is being maintained while the 
premises are vacant. Users can set the air conditioning by calling 
home just before leaving work.  Once access to the security system 
has been established, the ambient temperature will automatically be 
announced if the installer has programmed this function.  The 
following sections describe how to use the 4500 thermostat.
