SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS  
Read and follow manufacturer instructions carefully. Follow all local electrical  
codes during installation. All wiring must conform to local and national electrical  
codes. Improper wiring or installation may damage AC/HP Control.  
Recognize safety information. This is the safetyalert symbol  
. When you see  
this symbol on the equipment and in the instruction manual, be alert to the  
potential for personal injury.  
Understand the signal words DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION. These  
words are used with the safetyalert symbol. DANGER identifies the most  
serious hazards which will result in severe personal injury or death. WARNING  
signifies a hazard which could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is  
used to identify unsafe practices which may result in minor personal injury or  
product and property damage. NOTE is used to highlight suggestions which will  
result in enhanced installation, reliability, or operation.

INTRODUCTION  
Carrier’s 7day, 5/2day, 1day programmable and nonprogrammable  
Performance Series Thermostat Control is a wallmounted, lowvoltage  
temperature control in either a single unit or a twopiece unit. In twopiece  
configuration, the relays are located near the equipment and a twowire  
connection is used between the Display Module and the Equipment Control  
Module. Singlepiece installation requires more wiring and results in a higher  
profile. The Edge Thermostat has no need for batteries to store  
userconfigured settings in memory. During power loss its internal memory  
saves settings for unlimited time, and the clock continues to run for at least 24  
hours. An extension of Carrier’s proven line of thermostats; it provides separate  
setpoints for heating and cooling.  
In the Edge Thermostat Control programmable configuration, different heating  
and cooling setpoints and times are programmable for 4 periods per day or 2  
periods per day. Programming can be done for 7 days per week, 5/2 days per  
week, or 1 day. The programmable Thermostat Control can also be user  
configured as a nonprogrammable Thermostat Control.  
The nonprogrammable Thermostat Control features Touch ’N’ Go settings  
for quick and easy temperature change without complicated programming  
schedules. And, its Touch ’N’ Go technology enables the user to switch between  
three different userconfigurable settings through intuitive buttons located just  
below the display.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS  
Power  
This control is powered by 24VAC only. It requires 24VAC (Rh and/or Rc and C  
terminals) of the lowvoltage transformer to be connected to it for proper  
operation. It will not operate without these 2 connections. Rh and Rc are  
connected via PCB breakout jumper. See Fig. 1. For applications using two  
2
4VAC transformers, one in the indoor unit and one in the outdoor unit, connect  
the common from each to the C terminal. Connect R from the indoor unit to the  
Rh terminal. Connect R from the outdoor unit to the Rc terminal. Then, break  
jumper on the circuit board. The W signal is taken from the Rh power and the G  
signal is taken from the Rc power. If the thermostat has been installed in a  
twotransformer application that is later changed to a singletransformer  
installation, installer must install a field supplied jumper between Rc and Rh.  
Depending on the installation, up to 14 wires may be required. Installation as  
twopiece unit is recommended. Only 2 wires are required for connection  
between Display Module and Equipment Control Module. These two wires (V+  
and Vg) do not provide ordinary 24VAC. They carry a combination of power  
and communications data that is unique to these products.

Models  
There are programmable and nonprogrammable models for all applications.  
They can be configured for AC or HP installations, allowing it to be used in  
place of all Carrier thermostats. Programmable thermostats may be configured as  
nonprogrammable if user desires.  
Outdoor Temperature Sensor  
The outdoor air temperature sensor is not included with the AC/HP Control. It is  
available as an accessory, part number TSTATCCSEN01B. Optimum  
performance is obtained when an outdoor temperature sensor is used with the  
AC/HP Control. Plan installation so that 2 wires can be run from Equipment  
Control Module to an outdoor location, preferably on the north side of the house  
or refer to Installation Instructions included with the outdoor temperature sensor  
for simplified connection. Sensor can be mounted to outdoor unit and existing  
4
dedicated sensor wires may be used for its connection. Details are provided in  
sensor instructions.  
Remote Indoor Temperature Sensor  
A remote temperature sensor may be used with the programmable heat pump  
and programmable air conditioner thermostats where it is desirable to install the  
thermostat in a limited access location while measuring the temperature in the  
living space. The remote room sensor may be used as a stand alone or average  
with local sensor.  
TwoPiece Thermostat Configuration  
The Performance Series AC/HP Control can be installed in one of two  
configurations. The control may be installed as a singlepiece thermostat or it  
may be split into two pieces and mounted in separate locations. As a singlepiece  
unit, all required wiring must be brought to the Equipment Control Module for  
connection to the terminal strip. In twopiece configuration, the Display Module  
can be mounted in the living space while the Equipment Control Module may be  
mounted near the indoor furnace or fan coil. Connection from the display to the  
Equipment Control Module requires only two wires. All other control wires are  
connected to the Equipment Control Module from the HVAC equipment. This  
configuration results in a slimmer display and locates the Equipment Control  
Module containing the switching relays away from the main living space where  
relay clicking will not be heard.  
The model numbers on the Display Module and the Equipment Control Module  
(ECM) must match or unpredictable results may occur.  
Twowire pigtail replacement part number is TX2WR05.

Wiring  
Wire length should be no more than 250 ft (76m). Use 22 AWG for normal  
wiring applications. Continuous wire lengths over 100 ft (30.5m) should use 20  
AWG or larger.  
INSTALLATION  
Carton contains the following components. See Fig. 2 for programmable models  
or Fig. 3 for nonprogrammable models.

AC/HP Control Location  
AC/HP Control should be mounted:  
Approximately 5 ft (1.5m) from floor.  
Close to or in a frequently used room, preferably on an inside parti-  
tioning wall.  
On a section of wall without pipes or duct work.  
7
href="
AC/HP Control should NOT be mounted:  
Close to a window, on an outside wall, or next to a door leading to the  
outside.  
Exposed to direct light or heat from a lamp, sun, fireplace, or other  
temperatureradiating objects which could cause a false reading.  
Close to or in direct airflow from supply registers and returnair regis-  
ters.  
In areas with poor air circulation, such as behind a door or in an al-  
cove.  
Installer should determine whether control will be installed as singlepiece or  
twopiece. In singlepiece configuration, as many as 14 wires may need to run  
to wall mounting location for connection to the control. In twopiece  
configuration, the Display Module and Equipment Control Module are  
connected by two wires.

. Secure rear plastic mounting base to wall with 4 screws and anchors pro-  
vided. To avoid unintended bending of wall plate plastic, use all 4 screws  
and anchors. Make sure all wires extend through hole in mounting base.  
5
. Adjust length and routing of each wire to reach proper connector block  
and terminal on mounting base with 1/4in. (6 mm) extra wire.  
6
. Match and connect equipment wires to proper terminals of each connector  
block being careful not to over tighten the screws. Correct polarity must  
be observed when connecting the two wires from the Equipment Control  
Module to the thermostat mounting base. If wires are connected incorrect-  
ly, the Display Module will not operate. See Fig. 7, 8 and 9.
