To setup Remote Sensors:
The Model 8825 System Controller supports up to two remote sensors on each thermostat in the system.
Settings for sensors are in the property window for the thermostat to which they connect: in the image
above, Outside Temperature is the first sensor on the Reception thermostat, and there is no second
sensor connected.
1. Type the desired name for each remote sensor.
2. Set the Sensor 1 Alarm Low Value, if desired. For temperature sensors this number is in degrees,
and for humidity sensors this number is in % humidity.
3. Set the Sensor 1 Alarm High Value, if desired. As above, this can be either temperature or
humidity, depending on the sensor.
4. Set the Sensor 1 Enable Alarm, if desired. As above, click the Sensor 1 Enable Alarm drop-down
and select Yes to enable alerts for this remote sensor.
5. Repeat for sensor 2, if connected.
IMPORTANT NOTE: In order for remote sensor values to be displayed, the sensors must be set up as
sensor #1 and / or sensor #2 on module #1 of each thermostat. In addition, the sensors must also be
configured as "monitor" (as opposed to "control") sensors.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The outside temperature, which is displayed on the System Status tab and in the
history graphs (explained in more detail later), must be connected as remote sensor #1 on thermostat #1.
