Wire specifications:
18-24 gauge thermostat wire
Installation notes:
• Ensure power at the HVAC equipment is off .
• Loosen screw terminals, insert stripped wire and
re-tighten .
• Push the excess wire back into the opening and plug the
wall opening to prevent drafts .

INSTALLATION
THERMOSTAT INSTALLATION LOCATION RECOMMENDATIONS
EQUIPMENT CONTROL MODULE INSTALLATION LOCATION RECOMMENDATIONS
Thermostat should be mounted:
• On an interior wall, in a frequently
occupied space .
• Approximately 5‘ above floor .
• At least 18” from outside wall .
• Thermostat can be mounted to a
vertical junction box .
Equipment control module should be mounted:
• In a location where the temperature will not exceed
158°F (70°C) or drop below 32°F (0°C) .
Do not mount thermostat:
• Behind doors, in corners or other dead air spaces .
• In direct sunlight, near lighting fixtures, or other appliances that
give off heat .
• On an outside or unconditioned area wall .
• In the flow of a supply register, in stairwells, or near outside doors .
• On a wall with concealed pipes or ductwork .
REMOTE TEMPERATURE SENSOR (OPTIONAL)
THERMOSTAT WIRING
A remote temperature sensor can be used for control if the thermostat is to be mounted in a concealed location
or a remote sensor can be averaged with the thermostat sensor to control a large space . An 8051 flush mount
or 8053 surface mount remote temperature sensor can be attached to the T1 and T2 terminals and mounted in a
recommended area . The remote sensor must be enabled in the installer setup menu, and once enabled will override
or be averaged with the thermostat’s internal temperature sensor, based on the setting .
Remote temperature sensor should be mounted:
• On an interior wall, in a frequently occupied space .
• Approximately 5‘ above floor .
• At least 18” from outside wall .
• Using less than 300’ of wire .
Do not mount remote sensor:
• Behind doors, in corners or other dead air spaces .
• In direct sunlight, near lighting fixtures, or other
appliances that give off heat .
• On an outside or unconditioned area wall .
• In the flow of a supply register, in stairwells, or near
outside doors .
• On a wall with concealed pipes or ductwork .
• Near 120 VAC lines .
THERMOSTAT MOUNTING
EQUIPMENT CONTROL MODULE MOUNTING
1 . Remove the rear mounting plate from the thermostat .
2 . Pull wires through the opening on the rear mounting plate .
3 . Position and level the mounting plate of the thermostat on wall and
mark the hole locations with a pencil .
4 . Drill 1/4” holes and insert supplied anchors (drywall only) .
5 . Place mounting plate over anchors, insert and tighten screws .
6 . Seal wire entry holes to prevent drafts affecting temperature readings .
The equipment control module has the following features to simplify mounting and wiring and provide for a clean
and neat installation .
• Six (6) mounting holes . One on each corner and two centered top and bottom . Any combination of these holes
may be utilized . Mount the equipment control module using 2 to 4 #8 screws appropriate for the mounting surface
substrate . (See
Figure 2
.)
• Wires can be routed through
the top, bottom, sides or back .
• Nylon wire ties can be used
to secure wires in 10 places .
Installation Steps
1 . Select mounting location .
2 . Pull from bottom to remove
front cover . (See
Figure 1
.)
3 . Mount base using 2 to 4 #8
screws (field supplied) .
INSTALLATION
Do not mount equipment control module:
• On foundation walls or on the HVAC equipment or
ductwork . These locations can cause moisture to
condense on the equipment control module .

Note:
Installer must touch a grounded metal object before handling the equipment control module to avoid potential
damage due to electrical discharge .
