If the user fails to replace the batteries after an additional 21 days (days 22-42 since first “low battery” display) the setpoints will change to 55˚F (Heating) and 85˚F (Cooling). If the user adjusts the setpoint away from either of these, it will hold for 4 hours then return to either 55˚F or 85˚F. After day 63 the batteries must be replaced immediately to avoid freezing or overheating because the thermostat will shut the unit off until the batteries are changed.

Installation Tips
When performing an attic installation, instead of placing the base module in the attic, locate the closet nearest to the air conditioning unit. Then mount the base module high on the wall inside the closet or on the ceiling of the closet. This location will insure the base module is below the 150°F maximum ambient temperature specification.

Do not install the base module in locations

  • That are behind a chimney
  • Where temperature could exceed 150°F
  • Where rain or snow or extreme hot or cold is possible
    Note : This base module is NOT weatherproof.

Base Module – Basement Location

Wireless Range
Range between the thermostat and the base module is up to 100 feet with no obstructions and approximately 50 feet in standard residential construction. To extend the range try replacing the base unit higher if in a basement or further away from large metal objects.

Do not install the base module in locations

  • That are behind a chimney
  • Where temperature could exceed 150°F
  • Where rain or snow or extreme hot or cold is possible

Note: This base module is NOT weatherproof.

Private Label Badge

About The Badge
All of our thermostats use the same universal magnetic badge. Visit the company website to learn more about our free private label program.

Gently slide a screwdriver into the bottom edge of the badge. Gently turn the screwdriver counter clockwise. The badge is held on by a magnet in the well of the battery door. The badge should pry off easily. DO NOT USE FORCE.

Wireless Communication Tips

Follow these steps for a simple wireless communication setup

  1. Locate all components in area near equipment.

  2. Wire base module with 8ft
    pigtail and temporarily mount.
    If you are not able to establish communication, this will allow you to relocate the module to an area with less obstruction, without having to rewire.

  3. Install batteries in all devices you wish to use.
    Thermostat, indoor/outdoor sensors.

  4. A. Press the menu button on thermostat
    B. Press & hold tech set up button
    C. Configure the set up for your application
    D. Establish communication between devices

  5. Install thermostat in final location.
    Note : You must hardwire the thermostat when using remotes.

  6. Turn on fan from thermostat to ensure communication.
    Once communication is established, permanently mount module.

Troubleshooting
If there is no communication between the thermostat and base module devices that are less than 50ft. apart, utilize an 8ft. pigtail to relocate and reduce interference. If there is not communication and devices are over 50ft. apart, add a W150W – Wireless Repeater.

Reestablishing Communication

Establishing communication between master thermostat and the base module
The thermostat and base module come factory linked out of the box. If however, communication is lost, follow this easy- two step process to re- establish the communication link.

  1. Press and hold the base module button for 3 seconds. The Blue LED will flash when ready to receive initial signal from the thermostat. (Base module must be powered by 24V. Blue LED will be continuously on when 24V power is present.)
  2. Hold the light key (shown here) of the thermostat for 10 seconds, the Blue LED on the base module will stop flashing after communication has been established between base module and the thermostat.

Note : The blue LED on the base module will be on when power is present. The blue LED will flash 3 times every time it receives a signal from the thermostat. When a relay is on the corresponding LED relay indicator will be on.
Note : If the base module does not receive a signal from the thermostat for 15 minutes it will turn off all relays until communication is reestablished. The blue LED base module will also turn off to show communication has been lost.
Note : If communication has been lost for 1 hour and if freeze protection is enabled, heat and emergency heat relays will be turned on. The heat and emergency relays will turn on for 10 minutes every hour if there has been a call for heat in the last 24 hours.
Important : DO NOT hold the light button on the thermostat for more than 10 seconds after step 2 above has been completed. Holding the light button down will break the communication link and the base module button will need to be pressed again to reestablish communication.

Note
Up to four indoor temperature sensors can be connected to one thermostat. This allows for 5 sensing points (zones). For example: the local (thermostat) plus four indoor sensors enables 5 sensing points.
To connect an indoor sensor to a thermostat, select 1 on the FINDING SENSOR technician setup step. Then hold down the light button on the indoor sensor until it beeps, while in ZONE technician setup step on the indoor sensor. To connect a second indoor sensor change the thermostat to read 2 and change the indoor sensor to zone 2. The zone setting must match between the thermostat and the indoor sensor to connect. When the connection is established the thermostat will show FOUND + NAME of the indoor sensor in the system information area of display.

Balance Point
The system operates differently when a balance point is used. On a dual fuel system, the balance point outdoor temperature setting will be the outdoor temperature at which the thermostat chooses either the heat pump or gas furnace. For example: A balance point setting of 30°F will turn on only the heat pump above 30°F and only the gas furnace below 30°F. Y1 will be stage one above 30°F and W2 will be stage one below 30°F. A heat pump with electric auxiliary will energize the heat pump above and below balance point. The electric auxiliary will only energize below balance point. For Example: A balance point setting of 40°F, will turn on the heat pump above 40°F and turn on the heat pump and electric auxiliary below 40°F.

Reminders
Once a reminder has been turned on and set, the elapsed time can be checked by navigating to its tech setup step. The elapsed time will then appear in the text field. It can also be reset at that time by holding down the set CLEAN button for 3 seconds. Resetting an expired reminder can be done without entering tech setup, by holding down the set CLEAN button for 3 seconds from the home screen.
