Wiring Guidelines Manual
(125-3002).
Room temperature sensor installed (optional).
24 Vac Class II power available.
Supply power to the unit is OFF.
Any application specific hardware or devices
installed.
Air velocity sensors installed in ducts.
NOTE:
If the controller is being installed on a
box with 1 or more stages of electric
heat, the 550-809 MOV with pre-
terminated spade connectors must be
installed across the manufacturer-
supplied airflow switch. MOVs can be
installed at the time the controller is
factory mounted; coordinate with the
box manufacturer prior to order
placement. For field installation, see

A low-cost temporary RTS (540-
658P25) is available that plugs into the
RTS port on the controller, providing
temperature input and actual space
control until a permanent RTS is
installed.
