Location Considerations illustrated in Figure 1.
Locate a thermostat controller:
• on a partitioning wall, approximately 1.5 m (5 ft)
above the floor in a location of average
temperature
• away from direct sunlight, radiant heat, outside
walls, behind doors, air discharge grills, stairwells,
or outside doors
• away from steam or water pipes, warm air stacks,
unconditioned areas (not heated or cooled), or
sources of electrical interference

BI2 Configuration of Binary Input 2. (None): No function is associated with an input.
Default: None (Door Dry): Door contact only has an effect if BI1 is set to MotionNO
or MotionNC. (See the BI1 parameter earlier in this table.) The
occupancy is now dictated via BI1 and BI2. Any motion detected
sets the zone to Occupied status. The zone remains permanently in
occupied mode until the door contact switch opens momentarily. The
thermostat then enters stand-by mode. If more movements are
detected, the occupied mode resumes. While the door is opened,
any movements detected by the remote PIR sensor or the PIR
accessory cover are ignored. Use a Normally Closed contact
switching device. Contact opened = Door opened,
Contact closed = Door closed.
(RemOVR): Temporary occupancy request via a remote input. This
override function is controlled by a manual remote occupancy
override. When enabled, this condition disables the override
capability of the thermostat controller.
(Filter): A Filter alarm is displayed. This alarm can be connected to
a differential pressure switch that monitors a filter.
(Service): A Service alarm is displayed on the thermostat controller
when the input is energized. This input can be tied into the air
conditioning unit control card, which provides an alarm should there
be a malfunction.
UI3 Configuration of Universal Input 3. (None): No function is associated with an input.
Default: None (COC/NH): Changeover Contact/Normally Heat: A dry contact input
is used to signal seasonal hot/cold water changeover. The contact
closes when cold water is present. Valid only for two-pipe systems.
(COC/NC): Changeover Contact/Normally Cool: A dry contact input
is used to signal seasonal hot/cold water changeover. The contact
closes when hot water is present. Valid only for two-pipe systems.
(COS): Changeover Analog Sensor: Used for hot/cold water
changeover switching. Valid only for two-pipe systems.
Note: Choose the selection option (0): Cooling Only for the
SeqOpera parameter to allow changeover to occur between
Cooling Only and Heating Only. The changeover sensor does not
operate in Cooling and Reheat, Heating and Reheat, or Cool/
Heat Four-Pipe and Reheat applications.
(SS): Supply Air Sensor Monitoring
Note: If UI3 is set to None, COC/NH, or COC/NC, then UI3 Status
is available as a point for integration and Supply Temperature is
not available as a point for integration. If UI3 is set to COS or SS,
then Supply Temperature is available as a point for integration and
UI3 Status is not available as a point for integration.
