1. Insert two AA 1.5V lithium batteries (1) (Heat Timer P/N 020012–00) control. There is no need for programming the Space Sensors prior to installation.
   NOTE
   Ensure to install the batteries in the proper direction.

2. Observe the Wireless Space sensor status indicators (2). The Green LED should blink when data reception by Genesis Heat-TimerTM is received.
   If both (RED, GREEN) LEDs are blinking every second after installing the batteries, the System ID is not set for the Genesis Heat-TimerTM control. Reference ADD ADDITIONAL WIRELESS SENSOR section on page 6.

3. If the Wireless Space Sensor is receiving data from the Genesis Heat-TimerTM the Wireless Space Sensor is then ready to be mounted.
   NOTE
   If the LEDs are not blinking, verify the batteries are good and are installed correctly. If the batteries are good and the
   LEDs are not blinking, ensure the space sensors are configured with the Genesis Heat-TimerTM control.

ADD ADDITIONAL WIRELESS SENSORS
Description: The Genesis Heat-TimerTM control comes from the factory with 3 wireless sensors preprogrammed for a specific Genesis Heat-TimerTM control. An additional 2 wireless sensors may be added to the Genesis Heat- TimerTM control.

14. Once the sensor is programmed and detected by the Genesis Heat-TimerTM control proceed to Mounting the Wireless Space Sensor on page 11.

NOTE
If the sensor Green and Red LEDS continue to blink after pressing the TRANSMIT button, contact Technical Support at Heat-Timer.

CHANGE WIRELESS ID
Description: The Genesis Heat-TimerTM control will allow the installer to enter a custom wireless system ID. If the installer opts to enter a customer wireless ID, the wireless sensors must all be reprogrammed with that specific Genesis Heat-TimerTM control as  described under the ADD WIRELESS SENSOR menu.
NOTE
Reference CONFIGURING THE WIRELESS SPACE SENSOR on page 5 for additional information regarding the pairing of the Genesis Heat-TimerTM control with pre-programmed wireless space sensors provided with the control.

PLATINUM
PROGRAMMING THE SYSTEM ID
For the Long Range Space Sensors to function in a wireless sensor system, each space sensor must communicate with a nearby Long Range Repeater RLR or with the MSI Hub. Each wireless sensor network should have an unique System ID that enables all  wireless sensor network components (Space Sensors, Repeaters and Wireless Temperature Modules) with that System ID to communicate with each other.

1. Open the Wireless Space
   Sensor by gently pressing on the base locking tab (1) and removing the cover, and then insert two AA lithium 1.5V batteries (2) (Heat-Timer P/N 020012–00).
   NOTE
   Be sure to install the batteries in the proper direction.

2. Observe the Wireless Space
   Sensor status indicators (3). If the LEDs are blinking every second after installing the batteries, the System ID is not set (by default, the factory setting is that the System ID is not set).
   NOTE
   If the LEDs are not blinking, verify the batteries are good and are installed correctly. If the batteries are good and the LEDs are not blinking, the System ID has already been set. If the System ID is known, continue with “Mounting the Wireless Space Sensor” on page 11. If the System ID is not known, the System ID must be cleared using the following steps:
   a Remove the batteries from the Wireless Space Sensor.
   b Press and hold the Mode button (4) while re-installing the batteries. Continue holding the Mode button until the Wireless Space Sensor status indicators (3) start blinking once per second.

3. Remove the batteries from the Wireless Space Sensor, and then program the Wireless Space Sensor System ID using one of the following two methods:

PROGRAM THE SYSTEM ID WIRELESSLY USING A REPEATER—LONG RANGE (RLR) OR MSI HUB
a Ensure the Repeater RLR or MSI Hub has been powered-on and has already been programmed with the System ID. Observe the MSI Hub status LEDs (1). If the status LEDs are not blinking, or are blinking only once every 15 seconds, a System ID has been programmed. If the LEDs are blinking rapidly (once per second), a System ID has not been programmed, reference the MSI Hub Installation manual for additional instructions.b Press and hold the System ID Set/Reset button on the MSI Hub (2) for 5 seconds or until the red LED starts blinking.
c Place the Wireless Space Sensor near the MSI Hub or near a Repeater—RLR.
d Insert the batteries into the Wireless Space Sensor and observe the sensor’s red and green status LEDs. When the LEDs stop blinking, the space sensor is programmed and ready to be mounted.
e After the System ID has been programmed on all the Wireless Space Sensors, press the System ID Set/Reset button on the MSI Hub to return the MSI Hub device to normal operation.
f Continue with “Mounting the Wireless Space Sensor” on page 11.

MOUNTING THE WIRELESS SPACE SENSORS

NOTE

1. Select an appropriate location to mount the Wireless Space Sensor. The location must meet the following minimum requirements:
   • The location should be on a wall that will represent the current living space temperature (for example: in the living room, 5 feet (1.5 meters) high on an interior wall).
   • The mounting surface should be flat and strong enough to hold the weight of the device.
   • DO NOT mount the device in a location where it will be exposed to heating, cooling, or humidity sources (such as near radiators, heating/cooling vents, windows, doors, or in a kitchen or bathroom.

2. Mark the mounting location through the two mounting holes (1) in the Wireless Space Sensor base, and then secure the Wireless Space Sensor in place using the supplied screws and wall anchors.
   If additional Long Range Wireless Sensors are added to the wireless network system the System ID must be programmed on all of the Wireless Space Sensors prior to mounting. Ensure the steps provided in “ADD ADDITIONAL Wireless Sensors” on page 6 for Genesis and Program The SYSTEM ID on page 8 for Platinum have been completed before continuing. The Wireless Space Sensor cover should already be removed and the batteries installed.

3. Snap the cover back onto the Wireless Space Sensor.
