(Installer table step 16). If you wish to sense
indoor temperature using ONLY the remote
sensor(s), use this menu item to disable the
temperature sensor in the thermostat
(designated as the L sensor).

When operating with remote sensor(s), the
thermostat will calculate an average of the
sensed temperatures in all enabled sensor
locations (A, B, C and/or L), then display the
average temperature as the room tempera-
ture. During programming, you can also
assign each enabled sensor different
priorities during different program periods.
This allows the system to maintain a
comfortable environment by giving higher
priority to occupied locations. At the same
time, efficient system operation is enhanced
by giving lower priority to unoccupied
locations. For detailed instructions on this
feature, see the Operating Instructions.

After using the Installer menu to properly
configure the thermostat for your system,

OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE
SENSE.

This thermostat can also display outdoor
temperature, if you install an outdoor remote
sensor with an outdoor temperature sensor
probe (F145-1378). Refer to the remote
sensor installation instructions for proper
installation and wiring. Refer to the Operat-
ing Instructions to enable this feature and
display outdoor temperature on the thermo-
stat.

OPTIONAL ACTIVATE RUN PRG
BY TELEPHONE

With the optional X-10 Telephone Responder
(Model TR551, Radio Shack catalog RSU#
10037778) and Universal Low Voltage
Module (UM506, Radio Shack catalog RSU#
10037752) installed, you can make a
telephone call to run your program if the
thermostat has been set to Hold or Vacation
Hold. Figure 3 shows typical wiring
connections for installing the X-10 equip-
ment. The switch on the Universal Low
Voltage module must be set to the “Momen-
tary” position.

This option must be enabled on the User
menu (see Operating Instructions).
