Step 1 - Install Receiver When choosing the location for the Receiver unit, consider the following: • Interior Wall. • Keep dry. Avoid potential leakage onto the unit. • Relative Humidity less than 90%. Non-condensing environment. • No exposure to extreme temperatures beyond 32 to 122°F (0 - 50°C) • Away from equipment, appliances, or other sources of electrical interference. • Easy access for wiring • Approximately 5 feet (1.5 m) off the finished floor.

Step 3 - Confirm Link If the communication light is displayed on the control, the transmitter is linked properly. If the light is not on, the devices will need to be linked. Remove the cover on the Transmitter so that the button below the battery terminals can be accessed. Press and hold both the button on the Transmitter and the button on the Receiver simultaneously for 5 seconds and release. Upon release, the linkup process will begin; the communication LED on the Receiver will flash 8 times.

Step 5: Sensor Terminal Wiring Connect 2-conductor wire between the control or device and the sensor terminals (3 and 4) on the Receiver. This connection is polarity sensitive. Wire the sensor 'Com' terminal on the Receiver to the sensor 'Com' terminal on the control or boiler. At power-up the Receiver will report a temperature of 75°F (24°C) until the first temperature transmission is received (up to 10 minutes). Wait up to 10 minutes to verify that the temperature at the control is accurate.
