E529.RF Thermostat 

Installation Guide 

The e529.RF battery-
operated thermostat is 
designed to work in 
conjunction with an 
HVAC controller to 
monitor and maintain 
room temperature (other 
devices may also be 
controlled from the 
e529.RF).  

There are three general 
scenarios for using the e529.RF: 

 

A basic IRAS application with the e529.RF 
communicating wirelessly to another device 

 

An IRAS application with RF communication 
to a network backbone 

 

An IRAS application with wired 
communication to a network backbone 

Installation 

CAUTION! 

 

The e529.RF is intended for indoor use only. 

 

The E529.RF installer must be a trained, 
experienced service technician. 

 

All wiring must comply with local codes and 
ordinances. 

 

Failure to follow the instructions provided with the 
product could damage the product or cause a 
hazardous condition. 

Placement 

 Without the need for power input, the e529.RF 
affords great placement options for optimal 
performance with virtually any fan coil unit, heat 
pump, or packaged terminal air conditioner found in 
guestrooms. 

Since RF is critical to the e529.RF

’s operation, 

placement of the device and careful consideration of 
possible sources of radio interference are important. 
For instance, the unit should not be placed close to 
floor or ceiling or near pipe or other metal pieces. 

To minimize external conditions interference with 
room temperature measurement, locate the e529.RF 
away from external doors or windows and areas in 
direct sunlight. 

Mounting Instructions 

Separate the e529.RF 
body and the 
mounting plate by 
pulling the bottom of 
the mounting plate 
away from the 
e529.RF body and 
then pull the mounting 
plate down. 

NOTE:  If  the  back-
mounting  plate  is  rotated  more  than  2  or  3 
degrees, the plastic tabs at the top  of the plate 
may fracture or break off. 

 

Attach the mounting plate to the wall or 
electrical box with the arrow embossed on 
the mounting plate pointing upward.  

 

The e529.RF is provided with four 6-

32 ¾” 

sheet metal screws for mounting the plate to 
an existing 4” × 4” electrical box. If attaching 
the mounting plate to sheetrock or a similar 
wall surface, install four 6-8 × ¾ anchors. The 
four holes on the mounting plate can be used 
to mark the location for the anchors.  

 

Install the four AA alkaline batteries (NOTE: 
Use alkaline batteries only) provided into the 
battery compartment located on the rear of 
the e529.RF. Depress the battery clamp latch 
at the top of the battery compartment and 
then swing open the battery clamp. Insert the 
4 AA alkaline batteries, matching the “+” 
terminals on the batteries to the “+” symbols 
in the battery compartment. Close the battery 
clamp and verify the latch is securely 
fastened. 

 

Verify that the e529.RF display is now 
showing information. If the display is blank, 
verify that the batteries are completely 
installed with the right polarities and that the 
batteries are not dead.
