• Install on side of building out of direct sunlight

The thermostat is dual power. It can either be AC or  
battery powered, or both (to provide backup power for  
the clock). Batteries are optional if the thermostat was  
connected to AC power when installed.

Mount above snow line.  
Heat pump applications can use the outdoor temperature  
to effectively utilize the heat pump:  
Mount at least 3’ away from exhaust vents and  
24 VAC must be connected in order for the system fault  
and emergency heat indicators to operate  
condensing lines  
When the outdoor temperature is less than the Low  
Balance Point, the heat pump will be locked out and  
only auxiliary heating will be used.  
Maximum wire length is 300’.  
The thermostat has a memory backup that saves the  
thermostat’s settings in case of a power interruption.  
Do not route wires along 120 VAC lines.  
When the outdoor temperature is higher than the High  
Balance Point, the auxiliary heating will be locked out  
and only the heat pump will be used to provide heating.  
The reset button located under the battery cover can be  
used to reset the thermostat back to factory defaults  
The system settings will also be reset back to defaults

The integral factor is used in the equipment control algorithm to maintain the space temperature at set point.  
A short integral factor period will increase the number of cycles per hour. (A short integral factor period will be more  
comfortable.) A long integral factor period will lower the number of cycles per hour. (A long integral factor period will  
be more economical )
