    Safety Considerations Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, main- tenance, or use can cause explosion, fire, electrical shock, or other conditions which may cause death, personal injury or property damage. Consult a qualified installer, service agency or your distributor or branch for information or assist- ance.
  • Page 7: Introduction

    All communicating furnaces or fan coils are variable-speed and multi-stage for maximum flexibility, efficiency, and com- fort. They support controlled humidification, dehumidification, and air quality control. Either an Observer communicating, or a standard 24VAC controlled outdoor unit may be used. When using conventional, single-stage outdoor units, the...

  • Page 9: Quick Start

    Quick Start For first time installers, Quick Start will allow a quick start up of the Observer® Control before learning all the details of system operation. However, for the best possible comfort and operation refer to the Owner’s Manual. Set Day and Time To set the current time and date, press SETUP;...

  • Page 14: Installation

    NOTE: See Owners manual for further details of setting up schedules. Installation Overview This instruction covers installation of the Observer® Control only. Physical installation instructions for the indoor and out- door equipment and accessories are provided with each unit. Setup, commissioning, operation, and troubleshooting of the communicating system are covered only in this installation instruction.
  • Page 15: Check Equipment

    All wiring must comply with national, local, and state codes. Wall Control The Observer® Control is the command center for the com- municating system. It should be located where it is easily accessible and visible to the adult homeowner or end user.
  • Page 16: Remote Room Sensors

    (for non-zoned system) A Remote Room Sensor (Part No. SYSTXIIRRS01) can be used with the Observer® Control to take the place of the control’s internal temperature sensor (This sensor is NOT the same as the Zone Temperature Sensor, even though the part numbers are similar).
  • Page 17: Wiring Considerations

    Wiring Considerations Ordinary thermostat wire is recommended. Use 22 AWG or larger for normal wiring applications. Continuous wire lengths over 100 ft. should use 20 AWG or larger. NOTE: The communicating bus wiring only requires a four-wire connection; however, it is good practice to run ther- mostat cable having more than four wires in the event of a damaged or broken wire during installation.

When the Observer Wall Control is first powered up, it will display, Loading Graphics, then Select Function of this Unit. Next it will search for equipment, beginning with the indoor, then the outdoor, and remote room sensors.
  • Page 23 A14559 Once the indoor equipment, outdoor equipment, and zone panel (if applicable) have been found, the Installer will be asked to select if a humidifier is installed. NOTE: If the communicating indoor equipment (furnace or fan coil) cannot be found, the wall control will display the op- tion to enter THERMOSTAT DEMO MODE or to retry the search for equipment.
