Testing The Thermostat Wiring; Mounting The Thermostat - Tekmar TekmarNet2 Thermostat 527 Installation & Operation Manual

Testing the Thermostat Wiring

Testing the Power
If the thermostat display turns on, this indicates that the thermostat is operating
correctly and there are no electrical issues. In the event that the display is off, or
the display is cycling on and off:
1. Remove the tN2 wires from the thermostat.
2. Use an electrical meter to measure DC voltage between the tN2 terminals.
• If the DC voltage is 0 V (dc) for 20 seconds, then there is an open or short circuit
in the tN2 wires.
• If the DC voltage is 0 V (dc) for 10 seconds and then is 23 to 24 V (dc) for 5
seconds, this indicates the wiring is correct.
3. Connect the thermostat to the tN2 wires connected to a zone on a House Control,
Wiring Center, or Zone Manager.
4. If the thermostat display is off, or is cycling on and off, move the thermostat to
the next available zone on the House Control, Wiring Center, or Zone Manager.
• If the thermostat display remains permanently on, there may be a fault with the
previously tried zone on the House Control, Wiring Center, or Zone Manager.
• If the thermostat display continues to be off, or is cycling on and off, there may
be a fault on the thermostat.
If a fault is suspected, contact your tekmar sales representative for assistance.
Testing the Heat Zone Output
1. Press the
temperature. There should be no H1 symbol on the display.
2. Check that the House Control, Wiring Center, or Zone Manager zone is off.
2. Press the
temperature. Make sure the display does not show "WWSD".
3. When the H1 symbol appears on the display, use an electrical meter to check for
voltage on the House Control, Wiring Center, or Zone Manager relay. The voltage
is 24 V (ac) for zone valves, and 120 V (ac) for zone pumps.

Mounting the Thermostat

To place the thermostat back on the
mounting base:
• Place thermostat bottom tabs on
matching mounting base notches.
• Pivot top of the thermostat
towards wall, ensuring wires clear
obstructions.
• The top clasp makes a clicking
sound when properly closed.
