Aube Technologies TH148LE Thermostat
Introduction
The TH147 and TH148LE thermostats can be used to control:
- a gas, fuel oil or electric furnace – 2 or 3 wires
- a central air conditioner – 2 or 3 wires
- hot water system with or without pump – 2 wires
- a millivolt system – 2 wires
- a central heating and cooling system – 4 or 5 wires

Installation
Removing the Old Thermostat
- Remove the old thermostat to access the wires
- Identify and label each wire (with the corresponding letter on the wire terminal) and remove it from its terminal.
- If necessary, strip the end of each wire (maximum of 6 mm).
- Wrap the wires around a pencil to prevent them from falling into the wall.
- If the hole in the wall is too big, insulate it using a non-flammable material in order to avoid air draughts behind the thermostat.
Installing the New Baseplate
For a new installation, choose a location approximately 1.5 m (5 feet) above the floor and on an inside wall. Avoid draughty areas (top of staircase, air outlet, etc.), dead air spots (behind doors), direct sunlight or areas near concealed pipes or chimneys.
- Remove the thermostat faceplate.
- Loosen the locking screw in order to separate the thermostat from its baseplate (the screw cannot be completely removed).
- Gently tilt the thermostat upwards.
- Mark and bore the appropriate mounting holes (or use the existing holes). Insert the plastic anchors.
- Pass the wires through the opening of the baseplate and fix the baseplate to the wall using the screws provided.
Connecting the Thermostat
Refer to the following table for matching the wire labels with the thermostat terminals
| Terminals | Description | Wire labels |
| Rh | Heating power supply | Rh, R, 4, V |
| Rc | Cooling power supply | Rc, R |
| W | Heating signal | W, W1, H |
| Y | Cooling signal | Y, Y1, M |
| G | Fan | G, F |
| Un / Un | Input for a remote control device (TH148LE only) | – |
- Loosen the screws of the terminal block and insert the wires in the respective terminals.
- Tighten the screws.

Remote Control Input
The TH148LE thermostat has an input to which a CT240 telephone controller (optional) or any other remote control system (e.g., home automation) can be connected. When the input receives a 12-VDC signal, the thermostat switches from its current mode to the unoccupied mode and vice versa when the signal is removed. The unoccupied mode can be used to re-adjust the temperature to save energy when you are away for an extended period of time. To set the unoccupied mode temperature, see section 4.
Connecting to CT240
Connect TH148LE terminals UN and UN to CT240 terminals A and C (no polarity to observe).
Connecting to a Home Automation System
Connect TH148LE terminals UN and UN to a 12- VDC circuit as shown
Setting JP2 Jumper
The jumper specifies how the fan will operate when it is placed in automatic mode.
| HE | Place the jumper in this position if you have an electric furnace. |
| HG | Leave the jumper in this position if you have a gas or fuel oil furnace. |
Installing the Batteries
- Gently pull out the battery cover.
- install the batteries as shown. Observe the polarity.
- Reinstall the battery cover. You will hear a clicking sound
Completing the Installation
- Once the baseplate and the batteries are installed, mount the thermostat on the baseplate.
- Secure the thermostat using the locking screw and install the faceplate.
- Apply power back to the system
Basic Functions
System Operating Mode
Use this selector switch to set the system to heating mode (HEAT), cooling mode (COOL), or Off.
Fan Operating Mode
Use the selector switch to set the fan to automatic mode (AUTO) or continuous mode (ON).
Viewing and Setting the Ambient Temperature
The ambient temperature is normally displayed. To view the setpoint, press once on one of the buttons. The setpoint is displayed for 5 seconds and is indicated by the symbol on the display. During the setpoint display, press one of the buttons to change it.
Backlight
The display illuminates for 12 seconds when the backlight button or either of the buttons is pressed.
Unoccupied Mode (TH148LE only)
To place the thermostat in unoccupied mode, see section 2.4. In this mode, the icon is displayed and only the buttons work to allow a temporary bypass.
Temporary Bypass (TH148LE only)
If you modify the setpoint (using the buttons) when the thermostat is in unoccupied mode, the thermostat temporarily bypasses the setpoint of the unoccupied mode. The new setpoint will be maintained for 2 hours, then the thermostat will return to the setpoint of the unoccupied mode. The icon flashes during the bypass.
Low-Battery Indicator
An icon appears when the batteries need replacement. This icon will flash for 120 days, then the thermostat will cut power to the heating/cooling unit. The icon disappears once the batteries are replaced and the thermostat reinstalled on its base.
Warning: Before removing the batteries, place the system switch on the thermostat to Off. Otherwise, the heating/cooling unit might still be running even after the batteries are removed.
