Notice
Consider the following:
Removing the Thermostat Base
Mounting the Thermostat
To prevent the risk of personal injury and/or death, make sure power is not applied to the thermostat until it is fully installed and ready for final testing. All work must be done with power to the circuit being worked on turned off.
Please be aware local codes may require this thermostat to be installed or connected by an electrician.
Relay Power Jumpers
The thermostat includes three relay power jumper connectors located below the wiring hole.
The WiFi Thermostat 562 operates a one or two-stage furnace for heating and an air conditioner for cooling.

The heating setpoint can be set from 40 to 95°F (4.5 to 35°C). The Heat On symbol is shown on the display when the thermostat is heating. Heating for freeze protection is provided whenever the air or floor temperature falls below 40°F (4.5°C), regardless of operating mode.
Regular Heating
W1 relay is on when the air temperature falls 1.5°F (1°C) below the Heat To setting. When the temperature reaches the Heat To setting, the relay turns off. The W2 relay turns on based on settings selected in the Setup menu. W2 turns off when the air temperature is 0.5°F (0.25°C) below the Heat To setting.
Radiant Floor Heating
When Radiant Floor Heating is selected in the setup menu, the W1 relay operates using Pulse Width Modulation. This improves comfort for radiant systems with high mass floors.
Room Sensor and Averaging
The thermostat can measure room temperature between -46 to 212°F (-43 to 100°C). The room temperature can be measured using a combination of the built-in and auxiliary sensors.
Floor Sensor for Radiant Floor Heating
If a floor sensor is connected, floor minimum and maximum settings are available. For a combination of air and floor temperature control, leave the internal air sensor on in the setup menu. A floor minimum can be used to prevent a fast drop in temperature caused by receding solar exposure. This operation is recommended for areas heated by afternoon sun through large windows. When the sun sets, it can take a long time for the floors to get warm again. This may cause the room to cool off too much in the early evening. A floor minimum setting can help with this condition by maintaining a floor minimum temperature. Keep in mind the floor minimum temperature will override the air temperature, and if set too high, may overheat the room.
A floor maximum is recommended for rooms with hardwood floors. Setting floor minimum and maximum temperatures is a way of enhancing the comfort of the living space while protecting floor coverings. If there are more than one floor temperature sensors, the temperature is averaged.
Warm Weather Shut Down (WWSD)
The heating system can automatically shut off based upon the outdoor temperature and the WWSD setting. This provides a convenient way to shut off radiant floor heating.
Cooling Operation
The cooling setpoint can be set from 45 to 100°F (7.0 to 38.0°C). The Cool On symbol is shown on the display when the thermostat is cooling.
Cold Weather Shut Down (CWSD)
The cooling system can automatically shut off based upon the outdoor temperature and CWSD setting. This prevents unwanted cooling during the winter.
After 60 seconds of inactivity, the thermostat home screen displays only the time and the temperature.

| Description |
| MEMORY ERRORThe thermostat memory settings are corrupted. To clear, load the factory defaults in the Toolbox menu. The thermostat will not operate any heating or cooling equipment while this error message is present. |
| INTERNAL ROOM SENSOR FAULTDue to an open or short circuit, the thermostat is unable to read the internal room temperature sensor. If sensor 1 or 2 is set to room the thermostat continues to operate, otherwise operation stops. The error cannot be field repaired. Contact your tekmar sales representative for warranty or repair procedures. |
| SENSOR 1 FAULTDue to an open or short circuit, the thermostat is unable to read the sensor wired to S1 and Com. The thermostat stops normal operation if sensor 1 is the only active room or floor sensor or if a floor maximum temperature has been set. Check the auxiliary sensor wire for short circuits according to the sensor installa- tion manual. It may be necessary to replace the auxiliary sensor. Once the error has been corrected, the error message automatically clears. |
| SENSOR 2 FAULTDue to an open or short circuit, the thermostat is unable to read the sensor wired to S2 and Com. The thermostat stops normal operation if sensor 2 is the only active room or floor sensor or if a floor maximum temperature has been set. Check the auxiliary sensor wire for short circuits according to the sensor installa- tion manual. It may be necessary to replace the auxiliary sensor. Once the error has been corrected, the error message automatically clears. |
| ROOM HOT WARNINGThe room temperature is above the Room Hot Warning setting in the Alerts menu. The warning will automatically clear once the room temperature falls below the setting. |
| ROOM COLD WARNINGThe room temperature is below the Room Hot Warning setting in the Alerts menu. The warning will automatically clear once the room temperature falls below the setting. |
| CHANGE AIR FILTERThe fan run time has exceeded the Change Air Filter setting in the Alerts menu. To ensure clean air it is recommended to replace the air filter on the heating and cooling equipment. While viewing the warning, press the Clear button to clear the warning and reset the fan run time counter. |
