All Friedrich PZ model PTAC units are factory configured to be controlled
by either the chassis mounted Smart Center or a 24V remote wall
mounted thermostat.The thermostat may be auto or manual changeover
as long as the control configuration matches that of the PTAC unit.
NOTE: All PZE models require a single stage cool,single stage heat
thermostat.All PZH models require a single stage cool,dual
stage heat thermostat with an B reversing valve control.The
Friedrich RT6 thermostat can be configured for either model.
To control the unit with a wall mounted thermostat
follow the steps below:
1. Unplug the unit before doing any work
2. Remove the low voltage terminal block from the unit.
3. Connect the corresponding terminals from the wall thermostat to
the terminal block

control panel, press the “Cool” and “UP” buttons simultaneously
for three seconds, the digital displays character “P”, and the
