As previously mentioned, it is recommended
that the SAQM is installed near the thermostat.
Recommended minimum distance from the
thermostat is six (6) inches. This is required so that
any heat given off from the SAQM does not affect
temperature sensing function of the thermostat.
• A eld-provided 24VAC, 1 AMP or greater plug-
in wall power adapter will be required.
• It is recommended that the SAQM is paired near
the thermostat and then positioned in home at
the desired installation location.
• Once power is applied to the smart device at
the desired location, then check the status of
the LED (see "Table 2. Status Indicator - Two
Color Descriptions". Maximum range without an
extender is approximately 70 feet (21.3 meters).
• If a blue LED is on, then move the smart device
closer to the S40 thermostat or add a Lennox
Wireless Extender (sold separately) between
the smart device and thermostat.
• For wall placement, install smart device at a
minimum height of 5 feet or 1.5 meters on an
interior wall. See "Installing on Wall" on page
10 for illustration example.

1. Take the smart device to the desired location
after pairing has been completed (see
"Adding SAQM" on page 13 near the S40
thermostat).
2. Apply power to the SAQM.
3. Observe the status of the signal strength LED
indicator. If the blue LED comes on, then the
smart device is receiving a weak or no signal.
Either reposition the smart device or add a
Lennox Wireless Extender.
