Safety

WARNING

Wiring connections must be made in accordance with all

applicable electrical codes. Failure to read and follow all instructions carefully before installing or operating this control could

cause personal injury and/or property damage.

CAUTION

To prevent electrical shock, disconnect electric power to system

at main fuse or circuit breaker box until installation is complete.

If in doubt about whether your wiring is millivolt, line, or low volt-

age, have it inspected by a qualied heating and air conditioning contractor or electrician.

Do not exceed the specication ratings.

All wiring must conform to local and national electrical codes

and ordinances.

This control is a precision instrument, and should be handled

carefully. Rough handling or distorting components could cause the control to malfunction.

The remote sensors cannot be used with systems where power

interruptions are part of normal system operation.

NOTICE

Specications

only.

Temperature range: 40° to 99°F Operating humidity range: 0 to 90% RH (non-condensing).

20-gauge, three-conductor shielded cable must be used for all remote sensor wiring.

Note: Remote sensor 910129096 is approved for outdoor

use only.

Temperature range of outdoor probe: -40° to 140°F 20-gauge, three-conductor shielded cable must be used for all remote sensor wiring.

Installation

Indoor Sensor

5. Avoid locations close to windows, adjoining outside walls, or doors that lead outside.

6. Avoid locations close to air registers or in the direct path of air from them.

7. Make sure there are no pipes or duct work in that part of the wall chosen for the sensor location.

8. Never locate sensor in a room that is normally warmer or cooler than the other areas being conditioned.

9. Avoid locations with poor air circulation, such as behind doors or in alcoves.

10. In the home, the living or dining room is normally a good location, provided there is no cooking range or refrigerator on opposite side of wall.

Outdoor Sensor

Select Sensor Location

Proper location insures that the remote sensor will provide a correct outdoor temperature reading. Observe the following general rules when selecting a location:

1. The interior mounting base can be located a maximum of 300 feet from the thermostat.

2. Install the interior mounting base within 12 ft. of the intended outdoor probe location.

3. Never install the outdoor probe where it will be exposed

to direct light from lamps, sun, replaces or any

temperature radiating equipment.

4. Make sure there are no pipes or ductwork in the wall chosen for the base location.

5. Outdoor temperature measurement requires installing the probe outdoors. Good probe locations would be under a bay window or overhang, out of direct sunlight. Direct sun exposure will affect sensed temperature. Install probe with spacer to obtain a more accurate temperature.

Mounting Surface

Select Sensor Location

Proper location insures that the remote sensor will provide a comfortable home or building temperature. Observe the following general rules when selecting a location:

1. The remote sensor can be located a maximum of 300 feet from the thermostat.

2. Locate sensor about 5 ft. above the room oor level.

3. Install sensor on a partitioning wall, not on an outside wall.

4. Never expose sensor to direct light from lamps, sun,

replaces or any temperature radiating equipment.

6. Although connected to the probe wire for outdoor temperature sensing, the interior mounting base must be placed indoors. Therefore, the interior mounting base must be installed near the perimeter of the building, so that the probe wire can be run through to the outside of the structure and placed in the selected (shaded) location. The outdoor probe wire is 12 feet long (and should not be cut or spliced), so plan the placement of both the probe and interior mounting base accordingly. Any excess wire may be coiled or bundled. The probe should be connected to E2 as shown in Figure 3.
