WIRE REQUIREMENTS  
(1) SELECT A MOUNTING LOCATION  
Figure 1 and the table show the number of wires that must be available at the thermostat in stand-alone thermostat systems  
(i.e. not as part of an Aprilaire® Model 6504 Intelligent Zoned Comfort System). Figure 1 shows optional connections to both  
an outdoor temperature sensor and an Aprilaire® Automatic Digital Humidifier Control (ADHC), but only one or the other is  
necessary. All wire is standard 18-24 gauge thermostat cable.  
If installing the thermostat alone…  
• Mount on an interior wall, in a frequently occupied space.  
• Keep the thermostat 18" from an outside wall.  
• Mount the thermostat approximately 5 feet above the floor.  
Height requirements are different for compliance with the  
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) – 48" maximum height  
for forward reach and 54" maximum height for side reach.  
• Thermostat can be mounted to a vertical junction box (j-box).  
DO NOT mount the thermostat:  
– behind doors, in corners or other dead air spaces.  
– in direct sunlight or near lamps, appliances or other  
sources of heat.  
– on an outside wall or wall exposed to an unconditioned  
space (i.e. garage).  
– in the flow path of a supply register, in stairways or near  
outside doors.  
If installing an indoor temperature sensor…  
• Mount the thermostat where it can be readily accessed.  
Note that the backlighting illuminates whenever a button  
is pressed.  
• Thermostat can be mounted on a vertical junction box (j-box).

DO NOT mount the thermostat where the operating range  
temperatures will be exceeded (i.e. attic or unventilated  
equipment room).  
• Mount the sensor in the same location as if installing a  
thermostat alone.

influence the sensor.  
– near sources of electrical interference such as arcing  
switch contacts.  
When this thermostat is connected to a Model 6504 as  
shown in Figure 2, only one four-wire cable need be run  
from the thermostat to the Model 6504. Use standard  
18-24 gauge thermostat cable.

(2) OPEN THE THERMOSTAT  
(3) MOUNT THE THERMOSTAT BASE TO THE WALL  
Use your hands to pull the thermostat face off of the base. Separate one side at a time. There are latches on  
either side of the thermostat.  
1. Place the wire opening in the base over the wire entry  
hole in the wall. Level the base (for appearance only)  
Figure 4  
and mark the screw locations. See Figure 4.  
If needed, the thermostat can be pried from the base by inserting a flat-head screwdriver (see Figure 3).  
2. Use the supplied screws and wall anchors to mount  
the thermostat to the wall. It is recommended that wall  
anchors be used for installation to drywall/sheet rock.  
CAUTION  
Figure 3  
Loss of internal programs  
may result from static  
discharge to thermostat  
circuit board. Avoid  
• Drill a 3/16" hole for wall anchors.  
• Drill a 3/32" starter hole for screws only.  
3. For junction box mounting, screws are field supplied.  
The thermostat can be installed on a vertical j-box.

7. VERIFY ADHC CONNECTION (if optional Automatic Digital  
Humidifier Control installed).  
TROUBLESHOOTING – ADHC CONNECTION  
Symptom  
1. Turn on the fan (set to ON).  
Cause  
1. Ensure that the ADHC has power (the green status light  
on the ADHC should be on) and make sure the ADHC is  
functioning properly – see ADHC installation procedure  
for start up and diagnostics.  
• The thermostat G terminal will energize and the  
system blower will start. The Fan Status on the display  
will show “FAN ON.”  
Miswiring – Check wire colors to verify A at ADHC is connected to ZA at  
thermostat and B is connected to ZB.  
2. If an ADHC has been installed, allow the fan to  
operate for no less than 40 seconds. If an ADHC is  
not part of this installation, you can turn the fan off at  
any time. A humidity value can be displayed only after at  
least 40 seconds of blower run-time to ensure the  
humidity reading is representative of the room air.  
No RH display, no outdoor  
temperature display  
ADHC power source – When wired to the Model 8570 thermostat, the ADHC  
must be wired to a continuously ON power source. Use voltmeter to verify  
presence of 24VAC (nominal) at ADHC.  
2. From the Main Screen, press the “INFO” button.  
• The outdoor temperature and relative humidity will be  
displayed for five seconds after which the contact  
screen will be displayed.  
ADHC not operating correctly – check red diagnostic light on ADHC.  
No valid reading available – run fan for at least 40 seconds.

Determines the temperature above/below the temperature  
setting at which the heating or cooling equipment will turn  
on. For example, a heat temperature setting of 70°F with a  
differential of 2° will result in the equipment turning on and  
off to maintain the temperature between 68°F and 70°F. If the  
second stage differential is also 2°, the second stage would  
be used to ensure the temperature did not drop below 66°.  
The default setting for the first stage and second stage  
differential is 1°.

5. PROGRESSIVE RECOVERY  
To turn Progressive Recovery on or off:  
All thermostats are factory calibrated to be accurate to within  
1° of true temperature. An offset is available to allow for  
agreement with field temperature measuring instruments. The  
value set will be added to the temperature sensed by the  
thermostat. The result will be displayed on the thermostat and  
will be used as the control value.  
This is the number of degrees (in either °F or °C) that the heat  
setting must be lower than the cool setting. The thermostat will  
automatically adjust the temperature setting not being changed  
to maintain this difference.  
Progressive Recovery causes the thermostat to bring on the  
heating/cooling equipment before the programmed event start  
time, in order for the temperature to be at the programmed  
value by the programmed time. The feature can be turned on  
or off. When turned off, the heating/cooling equipment will  
not begin bringing the space temperature to the programmed  
value until the start of the event.

outdoor temperature is available to the thermostat. Outdoor  
temperature can come from an ADHC or from an outdoor  
temperature sensor.  
During thermostat operation, the two multi-function buttons  
are labeled INFO and MENU. When the INFO button is  
pressed, the thermostat will display the humidity and  
temperature sensed by the ADHC (if an ADHC has been  
installed), then the thermostat will display any monitor  
messages and dealer contact information. At installation,  
the contact information is blank and only the thermostat  
model number appears. You have the option of inputting this  
contact information with the name and number of your

The low balance point is the outdoor temperature at or below  
which the thermostat will lockout the compressor(s) – only  
auxiliary heat will be used to satisfy heating demands. The high  
balance point is the outdoor temperature at or above which the  
thermostat will lockout the auxiliary heat – only compressor  
heat will be used to satisfy heating demands. Emergency heat  
operation is unaffected by the high balance point.

If the heating equipment has not run long enough to allow the  
humidifier to meet the humidity demand, the thermostat will  
continue the blower after a heat call. One second before the  
thermostat turns off the heating terminal(s), the fan terminal  
will be energized thus extending blower operation. If the fan  
terminal was on as part of the heat call it will remain on, if it  
was not on it will be turned on. The thermostat will operate  
the blower for no less than 5 minutes after the heat call and  
not more than 15 minutes. This will allow the humidifier to  
continue to put moisture in the air to satisfy the humidity
