Installation Instructions and User Guide

Optional Cover Plate installation

NOTE: If Optional Cover Plate is not required, see "UWP Mounting System installation".

Use the Optional Cover Plate when:

Mounting the thermostat to an electrical junction box
Or when you need to cover paint gap from old thermostat.

Separate the Junction Box Adapter from the Cover Plate. See Figure 1.

Mount the Junction Box Adapter to the wall or an electrical box using any of the eight screw holes. Insert and tighten mounting screws supplied with Cover Plate Kit. Do not overtighten. See Figure 2. Make sure the Adapter Plate is level.

Attach the UWP by hanging it on the top hook of the Junction Box Adapter and then snapping the bottom of the UWP in place. See Figure 3.

Snap the Cover Plate onto the Junction Box Adapter. See Figure 4.

UWP Mounting System installation

Before starting, turn the power off at the breaker box or switch. Open package to find the UWP. See Figure 5.

Position the UWP on wall. Level and mark hole positions. See Figure 6.
Drill holes at marked positions, and then lightly tap supplied wall anchors into the wall using a hammer.
‒ Drill 7/32" holes for drywall.

Pull the door open and insert the wires through wiring hole of the UWP. See Figure 7.

Place the UWP over the wall anchors. Insert and tighten mounting screws supplied with the UWP. Do not overtighten. Tighten until the UWP no longer moves. Close the door. See Figure 8.

Use 3x supplied screws #8 1-1/2"

Power options

Power options Step 1
Insert R and C wires into designated terminals for primary AC power (C terminal is optional if batteries are installed, but it is recommended). Remove wires by depressing the terminal tabs.

Power options Step 2
Insert AA batteries for primary or backup power.

Setting Slider Tabs

Set R Slider Tab.

Use built-in jumper (R Slider Tab) to differentiate between one or two transformer systems.
If there is only one R wire, and it is connected to the R, Rc, or RH terminal, set the slider to the up position (1 wire).
If there is one wire connected to the R terminal and one wire connected to the Rc terminal, set the slider to the down position (2 wires).

NOTE: Slider Tabs for U terminals should be left in place for T6 Pro models.

Wiring terminal designations

Wiring terminal designations
Note: Not all terminals may be used, depending on the system type that is being wired. The most commonly used terminals are shaded.

S	Input for wired indoor or outdoor sensors (TH6320U and TH6220U only)
S
Y	Compressor contactor (stage 1)
Y2	Compressor contactor (stage 2)
G	Fan Relay
C	24VAC common. For 2 transformer systems, use common wire from cooling transformer.
U	Unused
U	Unused
L/A-A	Heat Pump fault input (Common (C) wire required for LA/A)
O/B	Changeover valve
AUX - W2	Auxiliary heat relay Heat relay (stage 2)
E	Emergency Heat relay
W	Heat relay (stage 1)
K	Connect to K on Wire Saver Module**
R	24VAC power from heating transformer*
Rc	24VAC power from cooling transformer*

* Terminal can be jumped using Slider Tab. See "Setting Slider Tabs" above.

** The THP9045A1023 Wire Saver Module is used on heat/cool systems when you only have four wires at the thermostat, and you need a fifth wire for a common wire. Use the K terminal in place of the Y and G terminals on conventional or heat pump systems to provide control of the fan and the compressor through a single wire—the unused wire then becomes your common wire. See THP9045 instructions for more information.

Troubleshooting

If you have difficulty with your thermostat, please try the following suggestions.
Most problems can be corrected quickly and easily.

Display is blank

Check circuit breaker and reset if necessary.
Make sure power switch for heating & cooling system is on.
Make sure furnace door is closed securely.
Make sure fresh AA alkaline batteries are correctly installed.

Heating or cooling system does not respond

Press Mode button to set system Heat. Make sure the desired temperature is set higher than the inside temperature.
Press Mode button to set system Cool. Make sure the desired temperature is set lower than the inside temperature.
Check circuit breaker and reset if necessary.
Make sure power switch for heating & cooling system is on.
Make sure furnace door is closed securely.
Wait 5 minutes for the system to respond.

Temperature settings do not change

Make sure heating and cooling temperatures are set to acceptable ranges:

Heat: 40°F to 90°F (4.5°C to 32.0°C)
Cool: 50°F to 99°F (10.0°C to 37.0°C)

"Cool On" or "Heat On" is flashing

Compressor protection feature is engaged. Wait 5 minutes for the system to restart safely, without damage to the compressor.

Aux heat runs in cooling

For heat pump systems, verify there is not a wire attached to W on UWP systems. See "Wiring heat pump systems".

Cool runs with a call for heat

For heat pump systems, verify there is not a wire attached to W on UWP systems. See "Wiring heat pump systems".

ELECTRICAL HAZARD
Can cause electrical shock or equipment damage. Disconnect power before beginning installation.

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Compressor protection is bypassed during testing. To prevent equipment damage, avoid cycling the compressor quickly.

MERCURY NOTICE
If this product is replacing a control that contains mercury in a sealed tube, do not place the old control in the trash. Contact your local waste management authority for instructions regarding recycling and proper disposal.
