The Remote Thermostat Comfort Control is a
touch screen control that operates either as a
remote control or a thermostat to control airflow
into a space. The Remote Thermostat is battery
powered and communicates wirelessly to the
actuator using the FCC ISM 915MHz band.

The Remote Thermostat can be placed on a table
in a space or permanently attached to a wall.

Operating Modes
The Remote Thermostat can be operated in either Remote Control Mode or Thermostat Mode. For best
performance, operate in one mode - don’t repeatedly switch between modes.
Important!
Some systems may have controls that set certain limits, such as the discharge air temperature. Check with your
installer to see which mode, Remote Control or Thermostat, is best suited for your system.
Remote Control Mode
In remote control mode, airflow is controlled by the user and can be adjusted from 100%, fully open, to 0%, fully closed. The user
simply pushes the UP or DOWN key to control the amount of airflow into the space.

Important!
The remote thermostat has been designed for long battery life and will “sleep” when not in use to
maintain battery life. A moderate touch is recommended to “wake up” the remote thermostat. A
moderate, steady touch is recommended to operate the keys. Pressing hard will not make the thermostat
respond faster and may damage the LCD touchscreen.
Remote Control Operation
After the Remote Thermostat and Actuator have been linked,
tested and installed by the installer, the Remote Thermostat is
ready for use. In Remote Control Operation, the airflow is
easily controlled by the user. The user presses the UP key to
increase airflow or presses the DOWN key to decrease
airflow. The airflow can be adjusted from 100% - the damper
is fully open, to 0% - the damper is fully closed, or anywhere
in between.
Remote Control Mode
Make sure the Remote Thermostat is in
Remote Control Mode as shown in the
image.
The display indicates Remote (shown in grey)
