Another T stat wiring issue

Hello again,

I have a Rite Temp 7 day programable T stat (~2 years old) that I am switching over to a non programable Honeywell RTH3100C. I live in South Florida and my unit is a 2004 Rheem 3 ton. It has the outdoor evaporator and compressor unit and the indoor air handler. I wish I could tell you guys heat pump/single stage/double stage and all that but I realy dont know what all that means or how to tell. It is a typical air conditoner for south florida in which a/c is used 99.9 % of the time.

Anyway, the Rite Temp had the same wiring labels as my old dial t-stat so when i changed it the wiring was apples to apples. The wires from the unit are connected to the Rite Temp t-stat at:

G
Y
W
RH
RH to RC jumper.

The Honeywell has different wire labels but they give you a conversion chart (in () ) as follows:

E (X, X2)
Aux (W, W1, W2)
Y (Y1, M)
G (F)
O
L (F)
R (V, VR)
B (H)
C (B, X)

From the Rite Temp to the Honeywell, respectively, I can connect my wires as folows:

G to G
Y to Y
W to Aux

My dilema is I have no idea what my RH and RC is converted to the Honeywell setup. The chart does not have these options.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
