Installation
Outdoor temperature sensor
Outdoor temperature can be measured by installing an 8052 sensor (included) to the ODT terminals and enabling the outdoor sensor in the installer
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..
Indoor Air Quality functions can use the outdoor temperature sensor to:
•Control humidification setpoint based on outdoor temperature to prevent condensation
•Lock out humidification for temperatures over 60°F or below
•Lock out ventilation based on high and/or low outdoor temperatures.
•Display outdoor temperature on thermostat.
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.
Wire specifications:
Installation notes:
•Ensure power at the HVAC equipment is off.
•Loosen screw terminals, insert stripped wire and
•Use zip tie to route wiring through the wiring channels..

optional wireless Outdoor temperature sensor
For installations where it is difficult to wire the included 8052 outdoor temperature sensor, a Model 8056 wireless outdoor temperature module can be used. The Model 8056 module has two radio units, one that is placed on the equipment control module as shown below, and a second radio that is placed outside. See the Model 8056 Installation Instructions for detailed directions regarding installation..
