de-energized. Also, if a power loss occurs, the
system will go into compressor protection mode
and display “waiting” next to either a snow flake
icon (compressor cooling), or flame icon
(compressor heating) in the display.
Outdoor Sensor (Optional)
IMPORTANT
The outdoor sensor must be connected to oper
ate a system with a Humiditrol®accessory.
An optional (purchase separately) outdoor sensor
(X2658) is required for dual-fuel applications,
4
outdoor temperature display on the home screen,
balance points, dew point humidity control, and
with Humiditrol®EDA.
In addition to measuring and displaying outdoor
temperature, the outdoor sensor provides dew
point adjustment and control for all models. If used
with this thermostat, the sensor enables optimal
heating equipment operation via programmable
balance points.
NOTE - For proper operation of Humiditrol®EDA
applications, the outdoor sensor (X2658) MUST
be installed.
Refer to page 11 for remote sensor installation and
thermostat setting configuration.

lation. This will damage the thermostat and void
the warranty.
WARNING
Always turn off power at the main power source
by switching the circuit breaker to the OFF posi
tion before installing or removing this thermo
stat.
All wiring must conform to local and national
building and electrical codes and ordinances.
Installation
Before beginning installation, note the type of
equipment, number of stages, and any
accessories being installed. This thermostat is a
24VAC low-voltage thermostat and requires a
common wire to the thermostat to operate.
DO
Shut off all power to system before installing.
Read this entire document, noting which
instructions pertain to your equipment and
system requirements.
Make sure that all wiring conforms to local
and national building and electrical codes and
ordinances.
Use thermostat wire between the thermostat
and the optional outdoor temperature sensor
(may be separate wire pair or two wires of a
multi-wire cable).
Ensure load from any thermostat connection
is less than 1 AMP.
DO NOT
Install on voltages higher than 30VAC.
Short (jumper) across terminals on the gas
valve or at the system control to test
installation. This will damage the thermostat
and void the warranty.
