Carefully read these instructions. You could damage this product or cause a
hazardous condition if you fail to follow these instructions.
INSTALLATION TIPS
Wall locations
The thermostat should be installed approximately 4 to 5 feet above the
floor. Select an area with average temperature and good air circulation.
Do not install thermostat in locations:
- Close to hot or cold air ducts
- That are in direct sunlight
- With an outside wall behind the thermostat
- In areas that do not require conditioning
- Where there are dead spots or drafts On corners or behind doors)
- Where there might be concealed chimneys or pipes
Tip
Pick an installation location that is easy for the user to access. The
temperature of the location should be representative of the building.

SUBBASE INSTALLATION
Caution:
Electrical Hazard
Failure to disconnect the power before beginning to install this product can
cause electrical shock or equipment damage.
Mercury Notice:
All of our products are mercury free. However, if the product you are
replacing contains mercury, dispose of it properly. Your local waste
management authority can give you instructions on recycling and proper
disposal.
For vertical mount put one screw top and one screw bottom.
For horizontal mount put one screw left and one screw right.
WIRING
-
Turn Off Power to Heating/Cooling System
-
Remove Old Thermostat
Remove old thermostat but leave wallplate with wires attached. -
Label Wires with Tags
Label the wires using the supplied wire labels as you disconnect them. -
Separate Wallplate from New Thermostat
Remove wallplate from the new thermostat and mount onto wall. -
Separate Wallplate from New Thermostat
Mount the new wallplate using the included screws and anchors.
Drill 3/16-in. holes for drywall
Drill 3/16-in. holes for plaster -
Connect Wires
Simply match wire labels.
If labels do not match letters on the thermostat, check “Alternate Wiring (Conventional Systems) on page 9 and connect to terminal as shown (see notes, below).
Alternate Wiring (Conventional Systems)
If labels do not match letters on the thermostat, check the chart below and
connect to terminal as shown here (See notes. below).
- If wires will be connected to both RC and RH/R terminals, remove metal jumper.
- If there has C or X wire available then you can connect with C terminal, if there is no C or X wire then no need to connect with C terminal.
- If you have a heat pump without auxiliary/backup hear connect O or B, not both. If you do not have a heat pump, do not connect B. Wrap bare end of wire with electrical tape.
- Place a jumper (plece of wire) between Y and W if you are using a heat pump without auxiliary/backup heat
Caution: Electrical Hazard
Failure to disconnect the power before beginning to install this product can
cause electrical shock or equipment damage.
Warning:
All components of the control system and the thermostat installation must
conform to Class Il circuits per the NEC Code.
Wiring
- If you are replacing a thermostat, make note of the terminal connections on the thermostat that is being replaced. In some cases the wiring connections will not be color coded. For example, the green wire may not be connected to the G terminal.
- Loosen the terminal block screws. Insert wires then retighten terminal block screws.
- Place nonflammable insulation into wall opening to prevent drafts.
Terminal Designations
W Heat relay G Fan relay Y Compressor relay
- O Heat pump changeover valve energized in cooling
- RC Transformer power for cooling
- RH Transformer power for heating
- B Heat pump changeover valve energized in heating
- C Common wire from secondary side of cooling system transformer or for heat only system transformer
Tips:
RH & RC terminals
For single transformer systems, leave the jumper wire in place between RH and
RC. Remove jumper wire for two transformer systems.
Heat pump systems (With No AUX or Emergency Heat)
If wiring to a heat pump, use a small piece of wire (not supplied) to connect
terminals W and Y.
Wire specifications
Use shielded or non-shielded 18 – 22 gauge thermostat wire.
C terminal
The C (common wire) terminal does not have to be connected when the thermostat
is powered by batteries.
- Power supply
- Factory-installed jumper. Remove only when installing on 2-transformer systems.
- Use either O or B terminals for changeover valve
- Use a small piece of wire (not supplied) to connect W and Y terminals
- Set fan operation switch to electric
- Optional 24 VAC common connection when thermostat is used in battery power mode
TECHNICIAN SETUP
Gas or Electric Setup
Gas: For systems that control the fan during a call for heat, put the fan
operation switch to the GAS position.
Electric: The thermostat operation switch should be put in the ELEC
position. This setting allows the thermostat to operate the fan when the fan
relay is connected to the G terminal.
Adjusting the Temperature Swing
The swing setting, often called CYCLE RATE, DIFFERENTIAL or ANTICIPATION is
adjustable. A smaller swing setting will cause more frequent cycles and a
larger swing setting will cause fewer cycles. There are separate swing
settings for heat and for cool. Follow the steps below to adjust the SWING
setting for heat or cool:
-
Select HEAT or COOL with the system switch.
-
Hold down the and keys together for 3 seconds.
-
Use the or key to adjust the swing. The swing is adjustable from 10.2° Fto 12° F.
For example: A swing setting of 0.5° F will turn the cooling on at approxi- mately 0.5° F above the setpoint and turn the cooling off at approximately 0.5° F below the setpoint. The factory default for cooling is 0.5° F and 0.4° F for heating. -
Wait approximately 10 seconds for the thermostat to return to normal operation.
Adjusting Room Temperature Calibration, Fahrenheit/Celsius Display and Compressor Delay
This feature allows the installer to change the calibration of the room temperature display. For example: If the thermostat reads 70° and you would like it to read 72° then select +2. You can adjust the room temperature display to ready -4° F to +4° F above or below the factory cali brated reading. Follow the steps below to adjust the temperature reading:
- Select OFF with the system switch.
- Hold down the and keys together for 3 seconds.
- Use the , key to adjust the room temperature display.
- Then press to access the F (Fahrenheit) or C(Celsius) setting, use to select.
- Press again to acess the DELAY selection, the compressor delay will not allow the compressor to be turned on for 5 minutes after the last time the compressor was on. Use the to select ON or OFF(ON:the Y terminals will turn off for at least 3 minutes). Wait approximately 15 seconds or slide the system switch to return to normal operation.
Tip
Temperature swing, sometimes called differetial or cycle rate, can be
customized for this individual application. For most applications choose a
swing setting that is as long as possible without making the occupants
uncomfortable.
