THE MULTI-ZONE SYSTEM The multi-zone system enables different temperature levels to be controlled within the same home. The temperature of each zone is set on a main device and controlled by one or several devices installed within the rooms. Communication between all devices takes place through radio waves. Zone 2 Zone 1 CH120RF...
INSTALLATION The programmable thermostat comes with a cover plate suitable for mounting on recessed or wall mounted boxes.
Page 8
Installation must be carried out by qualifi ed personnel, in compliance with the requirements concerning installation of electrical devices. Make sure that the power supply is disconnected before making any connections or working on the device. Make the electrical connections as shown in the connection diagrams.
DESCRIPTION OF KEYS/DISPLAY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS The CH180RF programmable thermostat has 6 multi-function keys through which the entire system can be controlled.
