Installation

Selecting Placement

As previously mentioned, it is recommended 

that the 

SAQM

 

is installed near the thermostat. 

Recommended minimum distance from the 

thermostat is six (6) inches. This is required so that 

any heat given off from the 

SAQM

 does not affect 

temperature sensing function of the thermostat.

• 

A field-provided 24VAC, 1 AMP or greater plug-

in wall power adapter will be required.

•  It is recommended that the 

SAQM

 

is paired near 

the thermostat and then positioned in home at 

the desired installation location. 

•  Once power is applied to the smart device at 

the desired location, then check the status of 

the LED (see 

"Table 2. Status Indicator - Two 

Color Descriptions"

. Maximum range without an 

extender is approximately 70 feet (21.3 meters).

•  If a blue LED is on, then move the smart device 

closer to the S40 thermostat or add a 

Lennox 

Wireless Extender

 (sold separately) between 

the smart device and thermostat.

•  For wall placement, install smart device at a 

minimum height of 5 feet or 1.5 meters on an 

interior wall. See 

"Installing on Wall" on page 

10 

for illustration example.

Confirming Placement Location

1. 

Take the smart device to the desired location 

after pairing has been completed (see 

"Adding SAQM" on page 13

 near the S40 

thermostat).

2. 

Apply power to the 

SAQM

3. 

Observe the status of the signal strength LED 

indicator. If the blue LED comes on, then the 

smart device is receiving a weak or no signal. 

Either reposition the smart device or add a 

Lennox Wireless Extender.
