in strict accordance with the requirements of state and local
regulating agencies. In the absence of local requirements, follow
ANSI/NFPA 70, National Electric Code.
• The HTE-01 Thermostat may be used with a 24 VAC power source or
battery power only. DO NOT APPLY supply voltage above 30 VAC.
• DO NOT expose the HTE-01 Thermostat to voltage uctuations of
more than ±2.4 VAC (±10% of nominal power rating).
• DO NOT install the HTE-01 Thermostat in a bathroom or area of
excessive moisture.
• DO NOT expose the HTE-01 Thermostat or HTM-01 Base Module
to water.
• DO NOT store the HTE-01/HTM-01 where temperatures drop below
-20°F (-4°C) or exceed 122°F (60°C).
• DO NOT operate the HTE-01/HTM-01 in temperatures below 32°F
(0°C) or above 113°F (45°C).
• DO NOT use solvents or aggressive cleaning agents to clean these
devices. A dry, soft cloth is recommended.

Device Overview
A single Model HTE-01 thermostat can control up to eight air conditioning
units equipped with Model HTM-01 base modules. The range between the
thermostat and the base modules can be up to approximately 50 feet
through standard building materials.
PTAC - Packaged Terminal AC
WSHP - Water-Source Heat Pump
HWSHP - Hybrid Water-Source Heat Pump
FCU - Fan Coil / Mini-Split Unit
UNI - Unitary AC / Furnace
The HTE-01 thermostat and HTM-
01 base module are paired when
supplied as a set from the factory.
If base modules are added or if
pairing is required in the eld, see
pages 11-12 for the device pairing
procedure.

For heat pump installations, dip switch #6 must be set to match the
appliance changeover valve. Refer to appliance manufacturers sys-
tem specications for required setting.
- ON = “B” – Cooling is default, switches over to Heat
- OFF = “O” – Heating is default, switches over to Cool
If more than one appliance type (dip switch 1-5) is selected,
error code will be displayed.

HTM-01 Base Module Installation
• Mount the Base Module: Using the double-sided adhesive backing on
the Base Module mount it to a convenient location on the appliance.
Avoid mounting the HTM-01 Base Module in locations near line
voltage power conduits.
DO NOT locate the Base Module in locations where exposure to
water or dirt/grease are likely.
DO NOT mount the Base Module in locations where temperatures
may exceed 104°F (40°C).
For best results, assure that the harness is long enough to
reach the intended location before mounting the base module.
• Wire the Base Module: Using the Base Module Wiring Harness
provided, wire the Base Module to the appliance. Choose the
appropriate wiring diagram from Appendix A based on: System Type,
Heating/Cooling Stages and Fan Speeds.

For best results, the HTM-01 base module is to be mounted in a convenient
location on the HVAC unit where there is no sheet metal between the base
module and the thermostat. The HTM-01 can be mounted on the inside of
an enclosure behind louvers or grill (Figure 1). For units with a sheet metal
cabinet, mount the HTM-01 on the outside of the cabinet (Figure 2).
Figure 1 – Units with louvers, grill
or plastic cover – Inside Cabinet
Figure 2 – Units with sheet metal
enclosures – Outside Cabinet

For HVAC units with an open bottom, place as close to the bottom as
possible while avoiding places where furnishings or cleaning equipment can
cause damage (Figure 3).

HTE-01 Thermostat Installation
Mount the Thermostat: Remove Mounting Plate and mount it
approximately 4-5 feet above the oor. Select an area with average
temperature and good air circulation.
BE SURE that the UP symbol is correctly oriented.
DO NOT MOUNT the thermostat near any heat source, behind
doors or curtains, in corners, in direct sunlight, in areas of high
humidity or where water is present.
AVOID mounting the Thermostat on an exterior wall.

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN
the terminal screws.
If using 24 VAC supply wiring, be sure that the wire goes through
the opening in the Mounting Plate before mounting.
FOR 24 VAC INSTALLATIONS, insert the low voltage supply wires into the
terminations provided and tighten the screws.

Hardwired Installation
Battery Installation
Battery installation is optional if
Thermostat is hardwired, “R” and “C”
terminal connected to 24 volt only
power.
Wire Specications: Shielded or non-
shielded 18-22 gauge thermostat wire.
Please insert 2 AA Alkaline batteries
(included.) High performance
lithium batteries may be used and
are recommended on commercial
applications.

Device Pairing
The HTE-01 Thermostat and the HTM-01 Base Module that were shipped
together were paired at the factory for convenience. To add additional
base modules, use the following procedure.
1. Hold down the Fan, Mode, and
buttons for more than 3
seconds to initiate the Pairing
process on the HTE-01 Thermostat
and set the 10-minute countdown
timer in action. This will allow
pairing of up to eight base
modules.
Note: To exit the Pairing process
hold the “Mode” and “Fan” button
until a beep is played.
2. To initiate the Pairing process on
each HTM-01 base module, press
and hold the PAIR button for
between 3 & 10 seconds until the
connection status LED ashes
green. The table on page 7 shows
the HTM-01 base module State
that corresponds to the LED Status
Indication.

As the HTE-01 Thermostat pairs with each HTM-01 Base Module the
number of paired modules is displayed. A maximum of 8 base modules
can be paired with each thermostat.
If there are eight base-modules already paired with the thermostat,
will be displayed for 3 seconds before returning to the previous
screen.
Note: New modules will always be assigned to the lowest available number.
