Installation

cont.

NOTE:

  

If installing this thermostat in a new installation, locate the thermostat 

4 to 5 feet above the floor in accordance with applicable building codes. Install 

the thermostat in a location that provides good airflow characteristics and avoid 

areas behind doors, near corners, air vents, direct sunlight or heat generating 

devices. Installation in these areas could impact thermostat performance. 

Wiring must conform to all building codes and ordinances as required by local 

and national code authorities having jurisdiction.

1.

   Turn off power to the air conditioning or heating system prior to 

 

installing thermostat.

2.

   Place system switch on front of thermostat to 

OFF

 position.

3.

   Place fan control switch on front of thermostat to 

AUTO

 position.

4.

   Remove front of thermostat body from sub-base by pressing release latch.

5.

   Place the thermostat sub-base against wall in the desired thermostat location. 

6.

   Guide thermostat wires through hole in sub-base. Continue to hold against wall.

7.

   Mark placement of mounting holes as appropriate and drill using a 3/16" drill bit.

8.

   Gently tap supplied plastic anchors into the holes in the wall.

9.

   Place the thermostat sub-base against the wall in the desired location,  

 

making sure the mounting holes are aligned and the thermostat wires are  

 

inserted into the opening in sub-base.

10.

  Fasten sub-base to wall using supplied screws.

11.

  Connect wires to quick wiring terminal block using the new terminal   

 

designations. See section 7.

12.

  Make sure all of the wire connections are secure and not touching any other  

 

terminal to prevent electrical shorts and potential damage to the thermostat.

13.

  Turn the front thermostat body over, exposing the rear view of the 

 

circuit board.

14.

  Locate the internal 

˚F /˚ C

 switch on the circuit board. Using your fingers, 

 

flip the switch toward the preferred temperature 

˚F / ˚C scale

.

15.

  Locate the internal fan option switch, 

HG

 (Gas) / 

HE

 (Elec) on the circuit 

 

board. This switch controls the heating system fan delay. Select gas for gas 

 

or oil fired systems. This will allow the furnace to run for a few seconds  

 

before initiating the fan. Select electric for systems with electric furnace  

 

elements that require the fan to come on immediately. Using your fingers, 

 

flip the switch toward 

HG

 (Gas) or 

HE

 (Elec).

NOTE:

  

For heat pump systems, the fan option switch should be set according to 

the second stage heating system type.

16.

  Locate the internal 

NORM / HP

 switch on the circuit board. This switch  

 

configures the thermostat for conventional (NORM) heating and cooling  

 

systems or heat pump (HP) systems. Using your fingers, gently flip the 

 

switch toward 

NORM

 or 

HP

.

17.

  Attach front body of thermostat to sub-base of thermostat, being careful 

 

to align the terminal pins on the front body with the terminal block on 

 

the sub-base.

Testing Your New Thermostat

3

•  Do not short (or jumper) across terminals on the gas valve or at the heating or    

  cooling system control board to test the thermostat installation. This could  

 

  damage the thermostat and void the warranty. 

•  Do not select COOL mode if the outside temperature is below 50˚ F (10˚ C).   

 

  This could damage the controlled cooling system and cause personal injury.
•  This thermostat includes an automatic compressor protection feature to 

  avoid potential damage to the cooling system from short cycling. This  

 

  thermostat automatically provides a 5-minute delay after turning off the 

  cooling or heating system output to protect the compressor.

  

NOTE:

  

Test your thermostat prior to programming any user settings. Pressing 

the 

RESET 

button will erase any user entries previously programmed and return 

them to their default values

.

1.

 Place the system switch in the 

HEAT

 position.

2.

 Press the    button on the keypad until the set point temperature setting is a  

 

  minimum of 3 degrees higher than the current room temperature. The heating    
  system should start within several seconds. The fan may not turn on  

 

  immediately due to the heating system built-in fan delay.

3.

 Place the system switch in the 

OFF

 position. The heating system should stop  

 

  within several seconds with conventional heating or cooling systems. On heat    

  pump systems you must wait 5 minutes for the automatic compressor short  

 

  cycle protection period to expire, or press the 

RESET

 button to bypass this  

 

  feature for initial testing purposes. Pressing the 

RESET

 button will erase any  

 

  user program settings. 

4.

 Place the system switch in the 

COOL

 position.

5.

 Press the    button on the keypad until the set point temperature is a minimum    

  of 3 degrees lower than the current room temperature.

6.

 The cooling system should start within several seconds. Place the system  

 

  switch in the 

OFF

 position. The cooling system should stop within a few seconds.

7.

 Place the fan switch in the 

ON

 position. The system blower should start.

8.

 Place the fan switch in the 

AUTO

 position. The system blower should stop.

NOTE: 

 If the thermostat was powered (batteries installed) prior to accomplishing 

steps 14 through 16, you will need to reset the thermostat to register thermostat 

switch configurations prior to programming any user settings. Gently press 

the 

RESET

 button on the front of the thermostat using a paperclip or a small 

pencil tip.

NOTE – MODEL 1200, 1200NC:

  

If the thermostat is 

configured for a conventional system and the system 

switch is in the 

EMER

 position, the unit will still 

function in a conventional 2 stage 

HEAT

 mode, but 

the display will flash 

NO AUX SET

.

18.

  Open front thermostat door and open battery compartment door.

19.

  Install two new "AA" alkaline batteries. Locate the positive (+) ends of the  

 

batteries and match them with the positive (+) terminals located in the  

 

battery compartment. Close battery compartment.

20.

  Restore system power so you can test installation.
