Mounting
The SZ1009, SZ1022, SZ1031 and SZ1035 are designed for
wall mounting using two #6 sheet metal screws, either over a
horizontally installed 2” x 4” junction box, or directly to block
or drywall.
For best results, the thermostat should be mounted on an inte-
rior wall which reflects normal room environment, at a height
of approximately five feet from the floor. Avoid areas
exposed to direct sunlight, unusual heat sources, open doors
and windows, or unventilated locations.
If using a remote room sensor, it should be mounted in the
manner described above. The thermostat may then be mount-
ed in an area which is accessible for adjusting its settings.
Caution: Remove power from thermostat prior to
mounting.

    How to fix wrong temperature display on TCS Basys Controls SZ1009?
    • C
      Christopher ReynoldsAug 17, 2025
      If the temperature readings are slightly off, use the adjustment pots inside the cover: 'T1' for room temperature, 'T2' for discharge air, and 'T3' for outdoor air. If the temperature is at its minimum or maximum, check the sensor dipswitch positions and inspect the wiring for issues like opens or shorts. For a remote 1000 ? sensor, expect a reading of 1080 to 1090 ? at room temperature, while the built-in sensor should read 108 to 109 ?.

    Why is my TCS Basys Controls SZ1009 heating or cooling not coming on?
    • B
      Bobby NixonAug 20, 2025
      If the heating or cooling isn't activating on your TCS Basys Controls Thermostat, make sure to check the following: * Verify the fan and system switch modes are correctly set. * Confirm the heating and cooling setpoints are appropriately configured. * Ensure the current room temperature necessitates heating or cooling. * Inspect the offsets and differentials settings. * If utilizing outdoor or discharge air high and low limits, verify their values to allow heating or cooling operation.

      erobersonAug 22, 2025
      If the outputs on your TCS Basys Controls Thermostat won't shut off, first, check the room temperature and setpoints to see if the output should be active. Remember that there are delays and minimum on and off times for the fan, heating, and cooling stages. Also, check the service status menus to confirm the state of the outputs.

    • W
      William CurtisAug 26, 2025
      If the fan on your TCS Basys Controls Thermostat isn't turning on, check the fan (using the FAN SWITCH button) and system modes (using the SYSTEM SWITCH button), as well as the unoccupied fan mode in the programming settings. Inspect the wiring. You can also short terminals “R” to “G” to see if the fan activates.

    What to do if TCS Basys Controls SZ1009 Thermostat displays the wrong temperature?
    • K
      Kyle GreenAug 28, 2025
      If your TCS Basys Controls Thermostat is displaying the wrong temperature, start by checking the wiring connections for any issues like poor connections, opens, or shorts. If the temperature reading is at a minimum or maximum value, verify that the sensor dip switch positions are correct. Also, check the resistance reading for the sensor. A remote sensor should read 1080 to 1090 ohms at room temperature, while the built-in sensor should read 108 to 109 ohms.

    • M
      Morgan BernardSep 3, 2025
      First, verify if the room temperature and setpoints are configured correctly to determine if the output should be active. Note that there are delays and minimum on and off times for the fan, heating, and cooling stages. Check the service status menus to confirm if the outputs are currently enabled. For immediate shut off, switch the system to 'off'. You can also reset the TCS Basys Controls Thermostat by pressing the system switch button and the service status button simultaneously.

    • C
      Cheryl GarciaSep 5, 2025
      If the service LED on your TCS Basys Controls Thermostat is illuminated, it could be for monitoring purposes or to signal a critical issue. To check the reason, press the SERVICE STATUS button to access the first monitoring screen, which will indicate why the light is on.

    What to do if my TCS Basys Controls SZ1009 heating or cooling does not come on?
    • D
      denisedavisSep 8, 2025
      If the heating or cooling isn't activating, ensure the heating or cooling LED is on. If not, verify the fan and system switch modes, heating and cooling setpoints, and room temperature. Check the offsets, differentials, and outdoor/discharge air high and low limits if applicable. If the LED is on but there is no heating or cooling, inspect the wiring. For testing, short terminals “R” to “W1”, “W2”, “Y1”, “Y2”, or “B/O” to check for a mechanical relay failure.

    • B
      brian89Sep 12, 2025
      The fan should be active when the fan LED is lit. If the fan should be running but the fan LED is off, examine the fan (FAN SWITCH button) and system modes (SYSTEM SWITCH button), as well as the unoccupied fan mode settings. If the fan is off, but the LED is illuminated, check the wiring. Short the terminals “R” to “G” to test for a mechanical relay failure.
