REMOTE SENSOR INSTALLATION
Locate the sensor in the same manner as the thermostat. Mount the sensor 300mm away
from any outside wall. Do not install the sensor behind doors, in corners or other dead air
spaces. Keep the sensor away from direct air flow, supply registers or near sources of heat
such as lamps and appliances. The maximum wire length from the sensor to the
thermostat is 30meters. Use a separate 18-2 shielded cable for sensor wiring. Prior to
wiring the sensor to the thermostat, use an ohm-meter or multimeter to measure the
resistance of the sensor. Measure at the end of the wires that will connect to the
thermostat. Confirm the resistance value (within 5%) to the temperature where the sensor
is mounted. Use a quality digital electronic thermometer to read the temperature at the
sensor. Remove the sensor cover and place the thermometer probe next to the remote
sensor to verify an accurate reading. Disconnect power to the thermostat when wiring the
sensor to the proper sensor terminals. Strip only as much insulation off of the wires as
necessary to provide a good contact with the terminals. The sensor is not polarity specific
so either sensor lead may be connected to either designated terminal on the thermostat.
