Electrical Wiring - Low Voltage
Thermostat Connections - The thermostat should be 
wired directly to the CXM or DXM board. See “Electrical 
– Thermostat” for specifi c terminal connections. Review 
the appropriate AOM (Application, Operation and Main-
tenance) manual for units with DDC controls.
Low Water Temperature Cutout Selection - The CXM/
DXM control allows the fi eld selection of low water (or 
water-antifreeze solution) temperature limit by clipping 
jumper JW3, which changes the sensing temperature as-
sociated with thermistor FP1. Note that the FP1 thermis-
tor is located on the refrigerant line between the coaxial 
heat exchanger and expansion device (TXV or cap tube). 
Therefore, FP1 is sensing refrigerant temperature, not 
water temperature, which is a better indication of how 
water fl ow rate/temperature is affecting the refrigeration 
circuit.
The factory setting for FP1 is for systems using water 
(30°F [-1.1°C] refrigerant temperature). In low water 
temperature (extended range) applications with 
antifreeze (most ground loops), jumper JW3 should be 
clipped as shown in Figure 5 to change the setting to 
10°F [-12.2°C] refrigerant temperature, a more suitable 
temperature when using an antifreeze solution. All 
ClimateMaster units operating with entering water 
temperatures below 59°F [15°C] must include the 
optional water/refrigerant circuit insulation package to 
prevent internal condensation.

JW3 should never be clipped for equipment or systems 
without antifreeze.
