•  In areas that do not require conditioning

•  Where there are dead spots or drafts (in corners or behind doors)

•  Where there might be concealed chimneys or pipes

Wall Locations

The thermostat and base module contain selectable wireless 

communication options. Each component has a jumper switch label 

FSK and ASK. Default setting: FSK.

• All components must be set to the same position for wireless 

  communication.

• Both modes utilize a 916 MHz frequency.

• FSK: frequency-shift keying, is the recommended mode.

• ASK: amplitude-shift keying, should be selected when using 

  components that can not communicate with FSK.

The images below illustrate the location of jumper switches for each 

item that has one. Note only the thermostat and Base Module are 

included in this package.
