Locate and Mount C7089U1006 Outdoor Temperature Sensor (Optional)
Mount the sensor where (see Fig. 23):
• cannot tamper with settings.
• there is good air circulation.
• it can measure true outdoor ambient temperature.
• surface is flat.
• wire distance between C7089U1006 and EIM is less than
200 feet.
Do not mount the sensor:
• in direct sunlight.
• where hot or cold air blows on the sensor. Discharge line
from an outdoor compressor unit, vent or fan causes
inaccurate temperature readings.
• where snow, ice or debris can cover it.
Use the following steps to mount the sensor:
1. Remove the sensor from the mounting clip.
2. Mark the area on the location selected for mounting the
sensor mounting clip.
3. Mount the clip.

CAUTION
Electrical Interference (Noise) Hazard.
Can cause erratic system operation.
Keep wiring at least one foot away from large inductive
loads such as motors, line starters, lighting ballasts and
large power distribution panels.
Use shielded cable to reduce interference when
rerouting is not possible.
IMPORTANT
Erratic temperature readings from a sensor can occur
as a result of any of the wiring practices described
below. Avoid these practices to assure correct opera-
tion. Use shielded cable to reduce interference if
rerouting sensor wiring is not possible.
— Be sure wires have a cable separate from the thermo-
stat cable.
— Do not route temperature sensor wiring with building
power wiring, next to control contactors or near light
dimming circuits, electric motors or welding
equipment.
— Avoid poor wiring connections.
— Avoid intermittent or missing building earth ground.
CAUTION
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Can cause electrical shock or equipment damage.
Disconnect power supply before connecting wiring.
Wiring must comply with applicable codes, ordinances and
regulations:
1. Wire C7089U1006 Outdoor Sensor to OUT1and OUT2
terminals on the EIM. If leadwire provided is not long
enough (60 in.), run a cable to a hole at C7089U1006
location.
a. Using color-coded, 18-gauge thermostat wire is
recommended. For example of general wiring of
C7089U1006, see Fig. 24.
b. Pigtail wiring can be used.
2. Mount C7089U1006 in its mounting clip.
3. Plug wiring hole using nonhardening caulk or putty.

If an outdoor temperature sensor is installed, the thermostat
displays the outside temperature in the lower right corner of the
Home Screen.
