programmed from the factory to automatically
recognize when a Remote Sensor is connected
(step #16, page 18). When the thermostat is
programmed to read the temperature from the
remote sensor, the degree icon above the room
temperature will blink once a second.
The Remote Sensor measures indoor air
temperature and sends this information to the
thermostat; it measures temperature with a range
of 32 to 99 F.

The Override button on the remote sensor
works slightly different than the Override button
on the front panel of the thermostat. Each press
of the remote OVERRIDE button adds 2 hours to
the override timer. If the timer was already
active, the first button press will round the
runtime to either 2:00 or 4:00. Subsequent
button presses will not wraparound as the
Override button on the thermostat does.
Instead, every subsequent button press will set
the runtime to maximum setting (4:00). The
Locked feature has no effect on the remote
OVERRIDE button.
The Remote Sensor should be connected to the thermostat using solid
conductor CAT 5, CAT 5e, or CAT 6 type network communication cable.
This is an unshielded cable with four twisted pairs of 24 gauge solid wire;
DO NOT use stranded cable. The cable length should not exceed 250
feet. If less than 75 feet of cable is required to connect the thermostat to
the Remote Sensor, a three conductor thermostat cable (18-24 gauge)
may be used; this cable is NOT suitable for any length greater than 75
feet.
IMPORTANT: Do no use shielded wire. Do not run sensor wiring in the
same conduit as the 24VAC thermostat wiring. Electrical interference
may cause the sensor to give incorrect temperature readings.
