  2. Remove Old Thermostat
  3. Determine if a Wall Plate is required to cover the opening, damage, or discolouration of the wall surface.
  4. Install CPT100 Base
  5. Connect Wires
  6. Attach Display

Tools

You may need the following tools to install the CPT100 Thermostat:

  • 1 Phillips or flathead Screwdriver

  • Power drill with 3/16” bit (if new mounting holes are required)
  • Smartphone/camera to photograph wiring for reference (optional)
  • Screwdriver to disconnect wires to the existing thermostat.
  • Pencil

Turn Off Power to HVAC System
Locate the HVAC panel breaker and turn OFF the system. Before removing the old thermostat, change the temperature setting to cause a heating or cooling call. When the thermost indicates there is a call, make sure the HVAC System is not operating.

Determine Wiring Configuration

If the CPT100 Thermostat is being installed in a new system or if wiring changes are intended, refer to Appendix A for the wiring configurations and skip to Install Mounting Plate.
When replacing a thermostat and replicating the wiring of the existing thermostat is desired on the CPT100 the following applies.

  • Remove the old thermostat to expose the wiring terminals.
  • Photograph the wiring for reference or use the table below to note the wire colors.
  • Use the Wire Color Record to note the wire color and function of each wire. If the terminals of the existing thermostat are unmarked, determine the wire functions for each color wire at the appliance.

Install Mounting Plate (with Wall Plate, if required):

Use the included wall anchors and screws to attach the Mounting Plate to the wall, making sure the wires run through the centre opening.

To cover paint or screw holes on the wall behind the thermostat, insert the
Wall Plate between the Mounting Plate and the wall as shown. Both plates are secured with the same screws.

InverterCool-CPT100-2C-Wi-Fi-Thermostat-fig-5

Attach Wiring: To insert a wire into a terminal, flip up the locking tab and slide the wire into the socket directly above the corresponding label. Insert each wire as required for the desired appliance. Once each wire is inserted, flip the tab down to lock it in position. Pull gently on each wire after locking the tab is closed to be sure the wire is secure.

A factory supplied jumper is supplied between RC and RH. This should be removed in two transformer systems (see Appendix A, page 18).
