Honeywell Rth8500 Wifi Anticipatory Settimg

I have a RTH8500 WiFi thermostat hooked to a Reznor natural gas heater in my shop (just installed). It appears to be working fine. My furnace manual says the thermostat anticipator should be set to 0.6 amps. Where can I check/ change, that setting on the thermostat?
