Caution thermostat from the protective bag until you are ready to install the thermostat. Required Tools The following tools are required to install the Proliphix thermostat: #1 or #2 Phillips head screwdriver. Drill with a 3/16” or 7/32” bit. Terminal block screw driver (included with the thermostat).
CAT5/CAT5E/CAT6 cables and HVAC cables should be a minimum of one inch. Before you Begin If you are removing an existing thermostat, Proliphix recommends that you label each connection as you remove the wiring. You will use these same wires (and labels) when you connect the IMT.
The power settings determine which HVAC power source (RH or RC) is configured to turn on each HVAC system (cool, heat, and fan). Most applications use only RH power. The Proliphix thermostat is shipped from the factory with the RH and RC jumpered together.

Figure 4 on page 8 as a guide, connect the labeled wires to the terminal post with the corresponding letter on the IMT base plate. For example, connect the wire labeled “W1” to the W1 terminal post. Loosen the terminal post screw used to secure the wires. Insert the wire straight down into the square hole and secure the corresponding screw to the wire.
Figure 6 and match the label number to the Proliphix base plate number for CAT5/CAT5E/CAT6 color coding. If the other end of the CAT5/CAT5E/CAT6 cable is connected to a Proliphix EPA-20/60 Ethernet Power Adapter, follow the wiring scheme for T568A. Note All wiring must conform to local codes and ordinances.
