If adding a Model 8870 thermostat to a system using 8840
series thermostats (8844, 8846, 8847 or 8848), you must
change the power supply installation, modify the addressing
method and remove terminating resistors from the Model
8811 protocol adapter.
1. A separate power supply is required for Model 8870
thermostats and 8840 series thermostats. This requires
different wiring.
• If using a Model 8800-8808 Communication Panel, see
DIAGRAM 7 for wiring schematic.
• If using a Model 8818 Distribution Panel you must use
the 8840 series thermostat with an 8809 Sub-base to
allow RS-485 communications to be connected directly
to the Distribution Panel. See DIAGRAM 8 for wiring
schematic.
NOTE:
1. IF USING AN EXISTING HYPERTERMINAL
CONNECTION YOU MAY NEED TO UNCHECK THE
“SEND LINE FEEDS…” BOX.
2. THE MODEL 8870 HAS AN EXPANDED COMMAND
SET. REFER TO DP 10004345 FOR THE MODEL 8840
SERIES COMMAND SET.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR INSTALLING THE MODEL 8870 WITH THE
8840 SERIES COMMUNICATING THERMOSTAT
