Price Wireless Thermostat System
PWTS Series

General Description
The Price Wireless Thermostat System provides both sensor
inputs and a point of control for Price controllers.
The System consists of 2 units:
Wireless Remote T-stat - Transmitter - Room Sensor T-Stat
with dial setpoint adjust, LED and push button.
Wireless Base - Receiver - Unit with LCD and 3 push buttons.
Remote T-stat and Base units talk between each other
wirelessly in the 2.4GHz range (FCC and IC certified). Base unit
connects to main controller using the supplied plenum-rated
CAT-5 cable. No other connections are required.
NOTE: Make sure that dip switches on the back of remote
and base are in the same positions, but also are unique from
other wireless pairs in the building. This prevents collisions and
incorrect data.
The Base LCD displays the data received from Remote
T-Stat: dial setpoint, current temperature, received message
strength (in percent) and battery condition. Battery condition
is code from 1 to 5, which signifies the amount of battery life
left in remoteT-stat (Transmitter). The battery code 0 signifies
that there is no signal from Remote T-stat: it is either dead
(batteries are low) or out of range. Remote T-stat transmits data
to the base approximately every 2 mins, or when the button is
pushed. LED provides data about transmission:
Green - Good operation
Amber - Battery low operation
Red - Remote T-stat cannot transmit
When the button is pushed to trigger transmission, the LED will
stay on longer for the user to see.
NOTE 1: Remote T-stat (Transmitter) is using Ultimate Lithium
Energizer L91 Batteries. Please replace batteries with the
same L91, when remote T-stat LED is Red or Amber, or base
(Receiver) stops getting messages.
NOTE 2: Batteries must be Lithium type. Standard alkaline
batteries do not supply enough voltage to ensure proper
transmission. Also alkaline battery life is much shorter than
lithium type batteries.
Set channel and address dip switches the same to match
a Remote T-stat and Base pair.
WARNING: Ensure they are unique within your building.

Location:
1. Mount the RemoteT-stat in a place that is convenient for
the end user, but please note the following:
a. Do not mount the thermostat in direct sunlight (across from
a window)
b. Shouldn’t be installed on an outside wall
c. Keep away from hot equipment (monitors, heaters,
photocopiers, etc.)
d. Ensure nothing will restrict vertical air circulation to the
thermostat (i.e. Do not cover!)
e. Do not mount on metal plate or in the box.
2. Place base within 50 feet from Remote T-stat and within
CAT-5 cable length from main controller (PIC, PRODIGY)
on the metal duct work using the mounting bracket
provided. Ensure base is "Hanging" in plenum away from
ductwork so it can receive wireless signal.
Installation:
1. The back plate on the Remote T-stats is removable and
can be mounted directly to drywall (using anchors supplied
by others).
2. The back plate on the base is removable and can,
depending on the ordered kit, be mounted in 2 ways:
a. directly to metal duct work through the mounting
bracket provided (using anchors supplied by others);
b. to the bottom of the UFAD basket;
3. Run the supplied plenum-rated CAT5 cable from the main
controller “T-STAT” jack to the RJ-45 jack located on the
bottom of base.
4. Make sure that dip switches (Channel and Address) on the
backs of RemoteT-stat and Base are in the same positions,
and are unique for the building.
5. After mounting, the Remote T-stat and Base can be locked
to the corresponding backplates using the setscrew
located at the bottom of the unit.
A 0.050” Allen (hex) key is required – One is supplied in
each box.
