IF NEW CONSTRUCTION APPLICATION,
CONSIDER

• equipment type (see manufacturer’s specifications)

— system switching required
— status indication provided

• control wiring—number of conductors required to

operate equipment and thermostat.

IMPORTANT: The T8611 requires a conductor to trans-

former common to provide continuous 24V power
for thermostat operation. This feature is commonly
specified and provided by equipment manufacturer.

IF RETROFIT/REPLACEMENT APPLICATION,
CONSIDER

• equipment requirements

— system switching (manual: EM. HT.-HEAT-OFF-

COOL, automatic: EM. HT.-HEAT-OFF-AUTO-
COOL).

— unique heat pump functions of emergency or

supplemental heat, changeover on heat or cool,
and status indication.

— Table 3 lists typical applications by manufac-

turer.

• existing wiring

— Are there enough conductors to operate the equip-

ment and the thermostat? Can a new cable be
pulled?

• existing thermostat
