For wire runs up to 50 ft (15 m), use no. 18 AWG (American Wire
Gage) insulated wire (35°C [95°F] minimum). For 50 to 75 ft (15
to 23 m), use no. 16 AWG insulated wire (35°C [95°F] minimum).
For over 75 ft (23 m), use no. 14 AWG insulated wire (35°C
[95°F] minimum). All wire sizes larger than no. 18 AWG cannot
be directly connected to the thermostat and will require a junction
box and splice at the thermostat.
UNIT WITHOUT THRU-BASE CONNECTION KIT
Correctly rated low voltage wire can be routed through the rubber
grommet located on the corner post adjacent to the control box ac
-
cess panel. Route wire through the grommet and then route the
wire behind the corner post utilizing the factory provided wire ties
secured to the control box. This will ensure separation of the field
low voltage wire and the high voltage circuit. Route the low volt
-
age wire to the Integrated Staging Control (ISC) board. See
Fig. 41.

NOTE: If utilizing the through the base connections, route the low
voltage wire through the wire ties to the Integrated Staging Con

HEAT ANTICIPATOR SETTINGS
Set heat anticipator settings at 0.14 amp for the first stage and
0.14 amp for second-stage heating.
TRANSFORMER CONNECTION FOR 208-V POWER
SUPPLY
All units except 208/230-v units are factory wired for the voltage
shown on the nameplate. If the 208/230-v unit is to be connected
to a 208-v power supply, the control transformer must be rewired
by moving the black wire with the
1
/
4
-in. female spade connector
from the 230-v connection and moving it to the 208-v
1
/
4
-in. male
terminal on the primary side of the transformer. Refer to unit label
diagram for additional information.

Instructions to select Y2.
Note 2: Y2 to Y3 connection required for 2 stage cooling operation and
when integrated economizer function is desired.
Note 3: To Connect a 2-Stage Thermostat:
Y2 to Y3 connection required for 2 stage cooling operation which
provides low and high cooling states.
