CM900 Wireless 
Installation Guide
CM927 / CM921 Wireless Programmable 
Room Thermostat & BDR91 Relay Box
Description
The Honeywell CM900 Wireless (CM927 or 
CM921) is a modern wireless programmable 
room thermostat based on Honeywell’s proven 
programming philosophy. To further improve the 
ease of use, this product includes an extra large 
LCD display with backlighting and LoT Technology 
to assist customers during daily use.
The CM927/921 room thermostat communicates 
with the BDR91 Relay Box on an 868MHz Radio 
Frequency (RF) band to control a single heating 
system component such as a boiler, pump or 
zone valve. Neither product will communicate with 
other RF products that use different frequencies or 
communication protocols.
Note: The RF link between the individual room 
thermostat (CM927/921) and Relay Box (BDR91) 
in system packs provided by Honeywell is pre-
configured at the factory and therefore SHOULD 
be installed at the same site. This makes the 
installation process fast and easy, but if products 
from individual system packs are separated, or 
mixed with other pre-configured system packs 
during installations please refer to section 5.1 
Binding / Rebinding Procedure to bind the desired 
units together and allow them to communicate with 
each other.
