ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
WARNING
Disconnect power to the unit before
servicing. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious injury or death.
Low Voltage Interface Connections
All Vert-I-Pak units have a low voltage interface connector through
which a Remote Wall Thermostat, Desk Control and Auxiliary Fan’s
Relay can be connected. The interface connector is located on the

Remote Wall Thermostat
All Friedrich Vert-I-Pak units are factory configured to be controlled by
using a single stage heat/cool remote wired wall mounted thermostat.
Thermostat Selection
Friedrich recommends the use of the Friedrich RT4 and RT6. These
thermostats are single stage heat/cool, manual changeover. The RT4 is a
digital display thermostat with single speed fan control. The RT6 features
a digital display, two fan speed selection, temperature limiting, status
indicator light, room temperature offset, and backlight. Other thermostats
may be used as long as they are single stage heat/cool
and are
configured correctly for the unit.
Th
ermostat terminals requirements:
.
For cooling with electric heat units: C, R, G, Y, W.
For heat pump units: C, R, G, Y, W, B.
For two fan speeds, thermostat must have 2 fan speed selection.
During Heat Mode:
HEAT PUMP UNITS
The B terminal must be continuously energized. The W terminal must have
24 VAC output to call for heat. The control board decides on whether to
turn on the Heat Pump Heat (compressor) or Electric Heat. The Y terminal
should not have 24 VAC output during heat mode.
Connect the thermostat using Figure 1 and Table 1 as a guide.
Procedure (Ensure there is no jumper wire at FP and F2)
1) Disconnect power to the unit
.
2) Unscrew and remove the electrical control box’s cover.
3) Locate the Interface Connector (24 VAC terminal strip (See figure 1 at left).
4) Make the wire connections according to the con figuration needed for
your unit (see above or page 40 for wiring diagrams). Use #18 gauge wire size.
5) Once each wire is matched and connected, the unit is now ready to be
controlled by the thermostat.
6) Reattach the electrical control box’s cover.
