One wired or wireless Outdoor sensor can be installed to read the outdoor
temperature (RS2).
The Outdoor Sensor measures outdoor air temperature and sends this information
to the thermostat; it measures temperature with a range of -40 to 127 F.
The Outdoor Sensor should be connected to the thermostat using solid conductor
CAT 5, CAT 5e, or CAT 6 type network communication cable. This is an unshielded
cable with four twisted pairs of 24 gauge solid wire; DO NOT use stranded cable.
The cable length should not exceed 250 feet. If less than 75 feet of cable is
required to connect the thermostat to the Outdoor Sensor, a three conductor
thermostat cable (18-24 gauge) may be used; this cable is NOT suitable for any
length greater than 75 feet.
IMPORTANT: Do no use shielded wire. Do not run run sensor wiring in the same
conduit as the 24VAC thermostat wiring. Electrical interference may cause the
sensor to give incorrect temperature readings.
