Mounting
The FX-WRZRMT10K-0 Wireless Remote
Temperature Transmitter can be surface mounted
using the adhesive tape pieces affixed to the back of
the transmitter. The transmitter can also be mounted
on metal surfaces using a Johnson Controls
MAGNET-BASE-PLW Magnetic Backplate (order
separately).
To mount the TE-6300 Series Temperature Sensor,
refer to the installation instructions included with the
device.
Note:
If another manufacturer’s 10k ohm thermistor
sensor is used with the FX-WRZRMT10K-0 Wireless
Remote Temperature Transmitter, the sensor must be
mounted within 10 ft (3 m) of the transmitter.
Location Considerations
When locating the temperature transmitter:
•
Mount the transmitter vertically, for ease of reading
the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) on the face of the
unit.
•
Locate the transmitter on the same building level
as the nearest FX-ZFR1811 Router or
FX-WRZ7850-0 Receiver.
•
For best signal transmission, locate the transmitter
at least 2 in. (51 mm) away from any metal
obstructions.
•
Wherever possible, locate the transmitter in the
direct line of sight to the FX-ZFR1811 Router or
FX-WRZ7850-0 Receiver. Signal transmission is
best if the path between the transmitter and the
router or receiver is as direct as possible. Line of
sight is desirable but not required, as long as the
path is not blocked by large metal objects.
•
Avoid metal obstructions (including equipment
rooms and elevator shafts) and concrete or
brick walls between the transmitter and the
FX-ZFR1811 Router or FX-WRZ7850-0 Receiver.
•
Do not mount the transmitter closer than
2 ft (0.61 m) or farther than 100 ft (30 m) from the
FX-ZFR1811 Router, or 150 ft (45 m) from the
FX-WRZ7850-0 Receiver.
•
The recommended indoor line-of-sight
transmission range between the transmitter and
the FX-ZFR1811 Router is 50 ft (15 m).
•
Run the temperature sensor wire lead to the
transmitter, supporting the wire lead along the way
as necessary. This wire lead should not exceed
10 ft (3 m) in length.
Installing the FX-WRZRMT10K-0 Wireless
Remote Temperature Transmitter
The FX-WRZRMT10K-0 Wireless Remote
Temperature Transmitter can be surface mounted
using the double
-
sided adhesive foam tape
factory-installed on the back of the device. To mount
the transmitter base with adhesive foam tape:
1. Clean the desired mounting surface to ensure that
the adhesive foam tape sticks to the surface.
Note:
The mounting surface, mounting base, and
ambient temperature must be at least 50°F (10°C)
when mounting the transmitter base with adhesive
foam tape.
2. Remove the transmitter housing from its mounting
base (Figure 2).

Tabs
1. Loosen (but do not remove)
the tamper-resistant set screw
on the locking tab of the
mounting base.
2. Insert a coin into the slot
on the top of the transmitter
housing, and depress the
locking tab on the mounting
base to release the housing.
