Installation
Important: This thermostat must be installed according to all national
and local electrical codes. The installation must be performed by
qualified personnel.
Locating the floor temperature sensor
The floor temperature sensor is installed under the floor surface. See
the QuickNet System Installation Manual (H57704),Section6,formore
details. Perform the Sensor Resistance Test prior to terminating the floor
sensor to the thermostat. See the QuickNet System Installation Manual
(H57704), Section 7, for more details.
Wiring the thermostat
WARNING: TURN OFF THE POWER TO THE CIRCUIT AT THE MAIN
POWER PANEL TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK.
WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD. TO PREVENT SHOCK, THE QUICKNET
FLOOR HEATING MAT MUST BE CONNECTED TO GROUND.
1.Removethecontrolmodulefromthepowerbasebylooseningthe

Note: If you wish to use only 2 periods, set periods “1 and 4” or
periods “2 and 3”. Early Start will not work if you set periods “1 and

Ground-Fault Protection
TheQuickStat-TChasabuilt-inGFCI(5mAtriplevel).Thisprotects
users against risks of electrocution by cutting off the power to the
floorheatingsystemwhentheleakagecurrentexceeds5mA.Ifa
ground-fault has occurred, the TEST light on the top of the
thermostatwillilluminateredandGFIwillappearonthescreen.
Testing the GFCI
UsersshouldtesttheGFCIaftertheinstallationoftheQuickNetfloor
heating system is complete to ensure that the ground-fault protection is
inworkingorder.UsersshouldtesttheGFCIonamonthlybasis
thereafter.
1.TheGFCIcanonlybetestedifthethermostathasaheating
demand.Increasethesetpointtemperatureabovethecurrent
measured temperature. Wait several seconds to allow the
thermostat to adjust to the new set point and the heating symbol
appears.
2.PresstheTEST button.
The test is successful if the TEST light on top of the thermostat
illuminatesredandGFIappearsonthescreen.
The test has failed if the TEST light on top of the thermostat does not
illuminatered.Inthiscase,turnthepowerofftothefloorheating
system and check the installation of the thermostat.
Resetting the GFCI
IftheGFCIhastripped,resetitbyswitchingthethermostattoStandby
and back to On. The TEST light on top of the thermostat will go off.
IftheGFCItripsinnormaloperationwithoutpressingtheTEST button,
there could be a ground-fault. To check whether it is a ground-fault
ornuisancetripping,resettheGFCI.IftheGFCIdoesnottripafterthe
reset, it was nuisance tripping and the system is functioning properly.
IftheGFCItripsagainafterthereset,thereisaground-fault.Theuser
should contact a qualified electrician to troubleshoot the issue.
