Proliphix Internet Managed Thermostat (IMT) 350c/350w Installation Guide, Release 1.0
Part No. 600-03000-350, Rev. 1
Before you Begin
Install the thermostat in an area or room with adequate air circulation and where
there are no unusual heating/cooling conditions, such as: sunlight, near a lamp,
radio, television, radiator register, or fireplace; near hot water pipes in a wall; near
a stove on the other side of the wall, on a wall separating an unheated room; or in
a draft from a stairwell, door, or window; in a corner or alcove; or behind an open
door.
Install the unit after all construction work and painting is complete.
Install the unit in an unobstructed location where there are no objects on the wall
above or below the thermostat or other obstructions (such as furniture) restricting
vertical airflow.
It is not necessary for the thermostat to be level.
Before you Begin
If you are removing an existing thermostat, Proliphix recommends that you label each
connection as you remove the wiring. You will use these same wires (and labels)
when you connect the IMT. See
Wiring the Base Plate Terminals (page 5)
.
Use the following steps to remove an existing thermostat
:
1
Turn off power to the entire HVAC system or the fuse/circuit breaker panel.
2
Remove the cover from the existing thermostat. If the cover does not snap off when
pulled firmly from the top or bottom, check the owners manual for removal
procedures.
3
Disconnect each wire. Label the wires with the terminal designation from the existing
thermostat. Place the label about 1/2” away from the end of the wire to allow for
stripping of the ends.
4
Remove the existing thermostat from the wall.
Caution
Prior to installing or servicing the thermostat, turn off electricity to the entire
HVAC system; do not turn electricity back on until all work is complete.
Do not jumper wires together to test the system. This may cause harm to your
HVAC system and damage the thermostat, and therefore void the warranty.
All wiring must conform to local codes and ordinances. The distance between
CAT5/CAT5E/CAT6 cables and HVAC cables should be a minimum of one inch.
Note
If this is a new installation, obtain the wire designations from the HVAC installer.
