Venstar Digital Wireless Thermostat and Receiver

How it works

Remove your old thermostat and replace it with the Wireless Receiver. Use the Wireless Thermostat to remotely control the temperature anywhere in your house. Add up to 3 more Wireless Thermostats (the Wireless Receiver supports up to 4) around your house and have instant access to temperature control no matter where you are.

More About the Wireless Thermostat and Receiver

With the Venstar Wireless Thermostat and Receiver, the options for managing your HVAC from anywhere in your house is possible. Turn up the heat without getting out of your warm, cozy bed or turn down the air conditioning from your living room chair? Put the thermostat in a the baby room to keep the temperature exactly right. Or, if you wish to be able to move the thermostat, put it by your bedside at night, or even control your heating and air conditioning system from two different places, such as upstairs and downstairs, then the Venstar Wireless Thermostat is for you.

This kit consists of two parts, a Wireless Thermostat and a Receiver. The Receiver is easy to install and is wired just like a standard 24VAC thermostat. The simplest solution is to just connect the unit to the old thermostat location; alternatively, tit can be wired in a furnace closet, in an attic or basement as the Thermostat communicates wirelessly. The Thermostat is a battery operated unit that can be placed in any location throughout your home (up to 500 feet from the Receiver) and will transmit radio signals to the Receiver. It can be mounted to your wall, carried in your hand, or set on a table or shelf using its built-in easel stand. The temperature sensor is located on the Thermostat, so place the thermostat where temperature control is most important to you. For energy savings, the Termostat allows up to 4 time/temperature settings to be programmed per 24-hr period and stores programs for 7 independent days.

Installation, Use and Programming

If more than one Thermostat is used with a Receiver, the transmitters must be given different Unit ID Numbers. Only the transmitter with Unit ID Number 1 may have a programmed schedule or be configured. All configuration parameters are taken from the transmitter with Unit ID Number 1. Transmitters with Unit ID Numbers 2, 3, and 4 cannot be programmed or configured (except for set points). The receiver will only accept commands from the Thermostat that was last used (button pressed). All other set points and modes from other transmitters are ignored. If the Thermostat with Unit ID Number 1 has a schedule and is in Program On mode, the receiver will revert back to following the programmed schedule when a time period change occurs, even if the transmitter with Unit ID Number 1 is not the current commanding transmitter.
