CAUTION

To prevent damage, never plug the programming

flash port. See

Illustration 6

for the proper orien-

tation for the respective model. The BAC-13xxxx

and BAC-14xxxx CO

model ports require the

914-001-10 flash pod pin extender card.

CAUTION

To prevent damaging the FlexStat or programming
pod, be sure all the pins align properly with the
sockets!

6. Plug the USB cable into the pod and then the

other end into the USB port of the computer.

CAUTION

To prevent the possibility of damage caused by
a ground loop between the FlexStat transformer
and the computer power supply, using an optically
isolated USB hub or using a laptop operating on
batteries only is recommended.

7. When the Found New Hardware Wizard pops up

on the screen, let it install the required drivers.

8. After the Wizard is finished, remove the protec-

tive rubber cap and insert the power adaptor

cable’s two pins into the power section of the

wall-mounted terminal blocks. See

Illustration 6

for the proper terminals for the respective model.

(Keep the cap on the pins when not in use.)

firmware. (See

Updating the Firmware on page 5

.)

1. Turn the hex screws in the bottom and top of the

FlexStat CLOCKWISE (only) until they clear the

cover. (See

Illustration 5

.)

CAUTION

To prevent mounting screw heads from touching
the circuit board in the thermostat, use only the
mounting screws supplied by KMC Controls. Do not
turn the screw in farther than necessary to remove
the cover.

2. Carefully pull the cover away from the wall-

mounted backplate (mounting base).

3. Temporarily remove—but do not discard—the

WD (watchdog) jumper (from the two pins clos-

est to the center of the board—see

Illustration 6

on page 4

). To avoid losing the jumper, temporar-

ily put the jumper on one pin only.

NOTE: To replace a lost WD jumper, use a standard

2.54 mm computer jumper sourced locally. A

KMC HPO-0063 jumper can also be used if

the finger tab is cut off to clear the backplate.
