WIRING
Refer to equipment manufacturer's instructions for specific system wiring information. After
wiring, see INSTALLER MENU for proper thermostat configuration. Wiring table shown are
for typical systems and describe the thermostat terminal functions.
Terminal Designations
*When both RC and RH wires are present, cut RC/RH jumper (see next page).
**For heat pump systems, add a jumper wire to connect terminals Y and W

Precautions
• Do not exceed the specification ratings.
• All wiring must conform to local and national electrical codes and ordinances.
• This control is a precision instrument, and should be handled carefully. Rough handing or
distorting components could cause the control to malfunction.
!
Do not use on circuits exceeding specified voltage.
Higher voltage will damage control and could
cause shock or fire hazard.
Do not short out terminals on gas valve or primary
control to test. Short or incorrect wiring will burn
out thermostat and could cause personal injury
and/or property damage.

Do you have a question about the 1F83C-11PR and is the answer not in the manual?

Questions and answers

I purchased the Emerson 1F83C-11PR. Instructions state that "if both are present, cut jumper wire". What is meant by both?? My heat is gas, and I do have air conditioning. Does this mean I have "both"?? Should I cut the jumper wire or leave it connected as is?

In the instructions for the Emerson 1F83C-11PR, "both" refers to systems that use separate transformers for heating and cooling. For a gas heating system with air conditioning (which typically uses a single transformer), the jumper wire should be left connected.

How does the cover come off to replace the battery?

To replace the battery on an Emerson 1F83C-11PR thermostat, locate the battery slot on the back of the thermostat. Remove the thermostat from the wall to access the back, then replace the batteries.

What color wires go to what on the back plate. I have red white yellow blue and green wires. I need to know which color goes to Rc, RH, O/B, Y, G etc. Thank you

For the Emerson 1F83C-11PR thermostat, the wire connections are:

- Red wire: Connect to RC (power for cooling) or RH (power for heating). If both are present, cut the RC/RH jumper.
- White wire: Connect to W (heating relay).
- Yellow wire: Connect to Y (cooling relay).
- Blue wire: Connect to O/B (changeover terminal for heat pump or damper systems).
- Green wire: Connect to G (fan relay).

Please respond to the second "jumper-wire" question. Thank you.

I truly must say that you need to hold my hand on this question. Regarding my Emerson 1F83C-11PR "jumper wire", separate systems means what? I have a combined gas furnace and cooling system, which operates as a single unit with a single blower. Depending on the season, I switch my existing thermostat from "HEAT" to "COOL". For this new thermostat, do I cut the "jumper wire or leave it connected as is?
