ground wire is in place.
SAfter installation, thoroughly test the system operation
and explain all system functions to the owner.
SLeave this manual with the owner for consultation
during future periodic maintenance.
SDispose of packaging material in accordance with local
requirements.
SThe manufacturer denies any responsibility and warranty
shall be void if these installation instructions are not
observed.
SInspect equipment. For damage due to improper
transportation or handling, file an immediate claim with
the shipping company. Do not install or use damaged
units.
SIn case of any malfunction, turn the unit off, disconnect
the main power supply and contact a qualified service
engineer.
WIRING
The Room Controller will be capable of controlling from 1 to 6
Fan Coil Units.
The total run length of the wire connecting the Room Controller to
the FCUs should be kept to under 500 feet (150 m.).
Only daisy chain wiring will be allowed (See Figure 1).
The Room Controller will connect to the receiver board connection
on the electronic board inside the unit.

POWER
The thermostat will be powered by unregulated 12.5 volts DC
nominal (10V min. to 20V max) which is provided by the
electronic board inside the unit.
The power consumption will be 50mA 12.5 volts DC.
For applications where more than one FCU is to be controlled, the
FCU closest to the Room Controller will be the only one that
supplies power to the Room Controller.
The control should be protected from damage if accidental
miswiring of power, ground and signal.

Room Controller Location
The Room Controller can be located anywhere. However, if the
installation requires the system in the location to use the air sensor
on the Room Controller; then, the controller should be mounted:
SApproximately 5 ft. (1.5 m) from floor.
Fig. 10 – Minimum Clearances
SIn the same area where the unit is located, preferably on
an inside partitioning wall.
SOn a section of wall without pipes or duct work.
If the air sensor on the Room Controller has been selected, it
should NOT be mounted:
SClose to a window, on an outside wall, or next to a door
leading to the outside.
SExposed to direct light and heat from a lamp, sun,
fireplace, or other temperature--radiating object which
may cause a false reading.
SClose to or in direct airflow of a heating or cooling
supply.
SIn areas with poor air circulation, such as behind a door
or in an alcove.
Maximum of 500 ft. (150 m) of total network wiring.

MOUNTING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury
or death.
Before installing the Room Controller, turn off all power to
the Unit that will supply power to the Room Controller.
!WARNING
STurn OFF all power to unit.

SUnscrew the side fixing screw.
SOpen the Room Controller rear mounting base to expose
mounting holes. The base can be removed to simplify
mounting (snap apart carefully at hinge to separate
mounting base from remainder of the Room Controller).
SRoute the Room Controller wires through the large hole
in the mounting base. Level mounting base against wall
(for aesthetic value only the Room Controller need not
be level for proper operation) and mark the wall through
the 2 mounting holes.
SDrill two 3/16” (5 mm) mounting holes in wall where
marked.
SSecure mounting base correctly (UP↑) to wall with 2
screws and anchors provided, (additional anchoring
holes available for more secure mounting if needed)
making sure all wires extend through hole in mounting
base.
SAdjust length and routing of each wire to reach the
proper terminal in the connector block on the mounting
base, with 1/4” (6 mm) of extra wire (strip only 1/4” (6
mm) of insulation from each wire to prevent adjacent
wires from shorting together when connected).

Room Controller Configuration Setup
To enter installer setup, hold the “MODE“ button down for 5
seconds. After 5 seconds, a “10“ will appear. This indicates that the
user is setting the first software configuration item. To check the
value of configuration item 10, press the “MODE” button. The
value of the Heat/Cool vs Cooling only remote configuration will
be displayed along with the “SET TEMP” icon to indicate that the
number displayed is the configuration data. To change the
Heat/Cool vs Cooling only remote Configuration, use the
“UP“/”DOWN“ buttons. To move to the next setting, press the
“MODE“ button again and the “10“ will be
displayed. Press the up button and the display will change to “11”.
The mode button will toggle the display between the software
configuration index (i.e. “10“, “11“, etc.) and the configuration
value. The “UP”/”DOWN“ buttons will change either the index or
the value, which ever is displayed at the time. Press the ”FAN”
SPEED button to exit Configuration Setup Mode. This mode will
exit automatically after 10 seconds of no buttons being depressed.
Once a configuration value is changed, the last value displayed will
be the new configuration value for the Room Controller.
The only way to abort a configuration change is to change the
value back to its original value.
The BOLD values are the default values from the factory.
