1. INTRODUCTION
This thermostat can replace most common residential thermostat and is designed to be used
with electric, gas or oil heating control system or cooling system.
Unlike ordinary single unit design thermostat, this unit is a new type of thermostat separating
the thermostat function into two units. The Receiver serves for wiring connections and
heat/cool on/off control. The Control Centre serves as user interface
and temperature sensing/control. The two units are linked by RF.
The advantage is that user can put the Control Centre nearby and can read/control the
temperature of really the living area.

RF ADDRESS CODE SETTING
If there is another user nearby, e.g. in the next house, your
receiver may be fault triggered by their transmitter. You may
select a different RF address code to prevent this. Receiver can
only response to RF coding with the same address code setting as
its own address code.
1.To adjust address code of Receiver, simply push up one or more
of the 5 dip switchlevers.
2.To adjust address code of Control Centre, open the housing of
the transmitter unit. See battery replacement section on how to
open the housing.
3.Remove one or more of the jumper caps as shown in the
diagram below.
CAUTION:
1.Address code of Control Centre must be the same as address
code of Receiver. For any jumper cap removal of address code #
in Control Centre, the same address code # ofReceiver must be
put to the UP position.
2.Disconnect AC power and remove batteries prior to adjusting address code.
WARNING:
After removing the wall plate, if you find that it is mounted on a junction box (e.g. a box
similar to one behind a light switch or electric outlet), high voltage circuit may be present
and there is a danger of electric shock. Please consult a qualified electrician.
