3. Remove the PC8900A from the wiring wallplate by pull-
ing the PC8900A straight off the wallplate.
4. Position the PC8900A Wiring Plate on the wall.
5. Level the wiring plate (for appearance only) using the
posts on top of the wiring plate; device functions prop-
erly even when not level.
6. Remove wiring plate from wall and drill 3/16 in. holes in
wall (if drywall) as marked. For firmer material such as
plaster or wood, drill 7/32 in. holes. Gently tap anchors
(provided) into drilled holes until flush with the wall.
NOTE: When using a wall cover plate, be sure to
place the wall cover plate between the wall
and the wiring plate.
7. Position wiring plate over holes in wall or outlet box,
pulling wires through wiring opening. Loosely insert
three mounting screws into holes that best fit the appli-
cation.
8. Tighten the mounting screws.
9. Reinstall the PC8900A on the wallplate by pressing the
PC8900A directly onto the wallplate.

Wiring the PC8900A
CAUTION
Keep wiring at least one foot away from large
inductive loads such as motors, line starters,
lightning ballasts and large power distribution
panels. Failure to follow these wiring practices can
introduce electrical interference (noise), which can
cause erratic system operation. Use shielded
cable to reduce interference if rerouting of wiring
is not possible. Ground the shielded cable only to
GND terminal on W8900A-C.
IMPORTANT
Erratic temperature readings can occur as a result of
any of the wiring practices described below. These
practices must be avoided to assure proper opera-
tion. Use shielded cable to reduce interference if
rerouting of wiring is not possible.
Do not route thermostat wiring with building power
wiring, next to control contactors or near light dim-
ming circuits, electric motors or welding equipment.
Avoid poor wiring connections.
Avoid intermittent or missing building earth ground.
