Introduction
Occasionally an installation arises
where running CAT5 and other wiring is
inconvenient or even impossible. For jobs
such as these, Price is proud to introduce
its Wireless thermostat. Using cutting
edge wireless technology, a base station
mounted under the floor or in the ceiling
communicates with a battery powered
remote thermostat up to 50 ft away. The
thermostat also contains a temperature
sensor, which is linked to the base through
the wireless connection as well. The remote
unit requires no wiring whatsoever, making
the Price Wireless Thermostat kit quick and
easy to install.
What’s included?
The Price Wireless Thermostat Kit comes
with everything you need to get set up.
Included in the kit are:
- Price Wireless Base Module
- Price Wireless Remote Thermostat
- A CAT5 data cable to connect the base
module to your choice of controller.
(PIC, Prodigy, etc)
- Mounting bracket for overhead
applications and accessory basket for
Underfloor applications.
Easy Installation
The back plate of the wireless remote
thermostat can be removed and installed
wherever it is most convenient. Avoid
positioning on an outside wall, and mount
away from metal to achieve maximum
signal strength. For overhead applications
the base module can be mounted directly to
metal ductwork using the supplied mounting
bracket for Underfloor applications use the
included accessory basket for base module
mounting. Price recommends mounting the
accessory basket near or on top of the UMC3
or UMCB controller for easy future access.
Ensure the dipswitches on both the base and
remote units are set to the same positions,
and lock the thermostats using the supplied
set screws. For reliable operation, signal
strength should be 10% or higher.
For the wireless remote thermostat please
use only double A lithium batteries. |

Operation
The LCD screen on the base station displays
a wealth of useful information related to the
operation of the wireless link:
- Signal Strength (Ranges from 0-100%)
- Battery level (Ranges from 0, indicating
dead batteries, to 5, indicating fully
charged batteries)
- Current Room temperature
- Current temperature set point
All of the above variables are available for
viewing through the BACNET Protocol as
well. |
