Mounting thermostats:
1. If necessary, release the housing cover by screwing
the housing cover set screw in (CW).
2. Remove the housing cover by lifting from the bot-
tom until the housing cover clears the top tabs.
3. Remove the battery, if present, to access the mount-
ing hole.
4. Mount the thermostat with the screws provided.
5. Re-install battery, observing correct polarity.
6. Press the Reset button.
NOTE: Doublestick tape may be used to mount thermo-
stats. Installers should evaluate potential damage to
wall surfaces before using tape.
Replacing the housing cover:
1. Place top of housing on housing cover top tabs.
2. Close the cover.
3. Turn the housing cover set screw out (CCW) to
secure the cover.
Programming Transmitters:
•In many applications, it is not necessary to program
FA7236 series thermostats. Factory default pro-
gramming gives each transmitter a unique identifi-
cation number which can be decoded in the user’s
software to identify the source of temperature data.
•Some software developers may wish to assign ID
numbers to transmitters, and to set other parame-
ters. This data can be loaded into the transmitter via
the programming header. Contact Inovonics techni-
cal Service for details.
NOTE: FA7236 series thermostats retain programming data in non-vola-
tile memory. They do not require reprogramming after loss of power.
Any time the battery is replaced in the transmitter, the Reset button
should be pressed to re-initialize the transmitter and to restore the
most recent programming.
