Honeywell TH8000 cycles per hour

Came across this today...
Cycle rate limits the maximum number of times the system can cycle in a 1 hour period measured at a 50% load. For example, when set to 3 CPH, at a 50% load, the most the system will cycle is 3 times per hour (10 minutes on, 10 minutes off). The system cycles less often when load conditions are less than or greater than a 50% load.
I dunno what it means by "less often when load conditions are less than or greater than a 50% load". Maybe it means we lengthen the ON or OFF depending on whether we're over or under 50%.
