How do I install the PECO T8168 Performance Pro on my HVAC system?

Disconnect power before beginning. Connect 24 VAC power and wiring to the appropriate terminals based on your system type using the System Operation table. Installation Guide, p. 1

What wire gauge should I use to wire the PECO T8168 Performance Pro?

Use 14-24 AWG stranded or solid copper wire only. Installation Guide, p. 1

Can I use this thermostat with 0-10 VDC proportional outputs?

Yes. When using 0-10 VDC outputs (WD, GD, YD), connected loads must have a minimum impedance of 1.2K ohms. Installation Guide, p. 1

What is the temperature control range for the PECO T8168 Performance Pro?

50° to 90° F (10° to 32° C). Installation Guide, p. 1

What do the lower right and lower left keys on the PECO T8168 Performance Pro do?

Hold both keys for five seconds to access Service Menus. Installation Guide, p. 5

What does SM 110 mean on the PECO T8168 Performance Pro?
