Optional Cover Plate installation
NOTE: If Optional Cover Plate is not required, see “UWP Mounting System installation” on next page.
Use the Optional Cover Plate when:
- Mounting the thermostat to an electrical junction box
- Or when you need to cover paint gap from old thermostat.
- Separate the Junction Box Adapter from the Cover Plate. See Figure 1.
- Mount the Junction Box Adapter to the wall or an electrical box using any of the eight screw holes. Insert and tighten mounting screws supplied with Cover Plate Kit. Do not overtighten. See Figure 2. Make sure the Adapter Plate is level.
- Attach the UWP by hanging it on the top hook of the Junction Box Adapter and then snapping the bottom of the UWP in place. See Figure 3.
- Snap the Cover Plate onto the Junction Box Adapter. See Figure 4.
- Before starting, turn the power off at the breaker box or switch. Open package to find the UWP. See Figure 5.
- Position the UWP on wall. Level and mark hole positions. See Figure 6. Drill holes at marked positions, and then lightly tap supplied wall anchors into the wall using a hammer. ‒ Drill 7/32” holes for drywall.
- Pull the door open and insert the wires through wiring hole of the UWP. See Figure 7.
- Place the UWP over the wall anchors. Insert and tighten mounting screws supplied with the UWP. Do not over tighten. Tighten until the UWP no longer moves. Close the door. See Figure 8.

Power options
Insert R and C wires into designated terminals for primary AC power (C terminal is optional if batteries are installed, but it is recommended). Remove wires by depressing the terminal tabs.
Insert AA batteries for primary or backup power.
Setting Slider Tabs
Set R Slider Tab:
- Use built-in jumper (R Slider Tab) to differentiate between one or two transformer systems.
- If there is only one R wire, and it is connected to the R, Rc, or RH terminal, set the slider to the up position (1 wire).
- If there is one wire connected to the R terminal and one wire connected to the Rc terminal, set the slider to the down position (2 wires).
NOTE: Slider Tabs for U terminals should be left in place for T6 Pro models.

FAQs
Yes, it’s a low-voltage (24 VAC) thermostat, compatible with the vast majority of forced air HVAC systems.
Yes, but “System Changeover” in the ISU menu must be changed from the default value of 0 (“Manual”) to 1 (“Automatic”), then “Auto” can be selected as one of the operating modes using the “Mode” button.
no. need a wyfi stat for that. But is a good thermostat.
Yes the t6 lyric
This thermostat does not have a wifi connection it will not work with Alexa, phone, or any device. It must be programmed on the thermostat itself by pushing buttons although it is digital. It’s a very nice thermostat and works great.
It has battery back up.
2-programs per day or 4-programs per day, or no programs per day adjustable for 5-1-1, or 5-2days, as far as off and on, can not do that just to the lowest, or highest temp.
If by dual fuel you mean one source for heat and a different source for A/C, then yes. I have gas heat and electric air on two separate units and have this thermostat controlling both units.
T4 is a basic stat that works on batteries or 24vac, it is no programmable good for milli volt fireplaces, furnaces. T5 does not have emergency heat for heat pumps, t6 has programming capability select able requires 24 vac from furnace. still has batteries just to maintain set back programs
You don’t need the C wire on this model as it takes batteries. The wifi model will require a C wire however.
1-1/8″
I just bought two and this looks like mine. They do work beautifully…
Yes, plate is 4-3/4 square.
Sometimes annoying. To change one time, cycle or temp program, you have to go through too many program changes. For instance you have to go through separate ac, and heat programs for each step. Temporary or locked permanent temperature changes however are easy.
