Outdoor temperature sensor (optional)

Outdoor temperature can be measured by attaching an 8052 sensor to the S1 and S2 terminals. The outdoor sensor must be enabled in the installer setup menu..

Power & Reset options

In heat pump mode the outdoor temperature sensor can be used to efficiently utilize an air source heat pump:

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.

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.

Outdoor temperature sensor should be mounted:

On side of building out of direct sunlight (north side recommended)..

Above snow line.

At least 3’ away from exhaust vents and condensing lines..

Using less than 300’ of wire.

Do not route wires along 120 VAC lines.

The thermostat is a 24VAC powered device with a battery back-up for the clock.

The thermostat has a memory backup that saves the thermostat settings in case of a power interruption. The system settings will be retained but the clock will reset after 90 seconds with no battery or AC power.

The reset button located under the battery cover can be used to reset the thermostat to factory defaults. The system settings will also be reset to default..
