By default, the CHV-TSTATEX-FCU is configured to be powered by two AA 
alkaline batteries. To extend battery life, the device also receives power from the 
HVAC system by drawing a small amount of current through the heat or cool 
terminals. This is known as Steal Power mode.  
To enable this feature, locate the power switch inside the unit and slide it to STEAL 
(This is the default factory setting on the CHV-TSTATEX-FCU). 
Power Switch 
STEAL 24VAC
NOTE: Steal Power mode does not draw enough current to cause the external heat 
or cool relays to close. More specifically, when the unit is not making a call for heat, 
it draws power through the R and W terminals. When the unit is making a call for 
heat, it draws power through the R and Y terminals. (This does not work if the 
thermostat has been wired for a cool only application.) The CHV-TSTATEX-FCU 
must be wired for heat control in order to take advantage of Steal Power mode. 
NOTE: In Steal Power mode, even when an auxiliary power source is available, the 
unit continues to enter a communications sleep state, waking every 30 seconds or 
one minute (based on the infiNET EX Sleep Time setting) to exchange data with the 
control system. Refer to “Remote Operation” which starts on page 25
 for details.
