Setting Slider Tabs

Set R Slider Tab.

  • Use built-in jumper (R Slider Tab) to differentiate between one or two transformer systems.
  • If there is only one R wire, and it is connected to the R, Rc, or RH terminal, set the slider to the up position (1 wire).
  • If there is one wire connected to the R terminal and one wire connected to the Rc terminal, set the slider to the down position (2 wires).

NOTE: Slider Tabs for U terminals should be left in place for T4 Pro models.

UWP Wiring terminal designations

S Not used for T4 thermostat.

Y Compressor contactor (stage 1)
Y2 Not used for T4 thermostat.
G Fan
C 24VAC common. For 2 transformer systems, use common wire from cooling transformer.
U Not used for T4 thermostat.
U
L /A A Not used for T4 thermostat.
O / B Changeover valve
A U X W2 Auxiliary heat (TH4210U only)
E Emergency heat (TH4210U only)
W Heat (stage 1)
K Connect to K on C-wire adaptor**
R 24VAC power from heating transformer*
Rc 24VAC power from cooling transformer*

Terminal can be jumped using Slider Tab. See “Setting Slider Tabs” above.
The THP9045A1098 C-wire adaptor is used on heat/cool systems when you only have four wires at the thermostat, and you need a fifth wire for a common wire. Use the K terminal in place of the Y and G terminals on conventional or heat pump systems to provide control of the fan and the compressor through a single wire—the unused wire then becomes your common wire. See THP9045 instructions for more information.

Note: Not all terminals may be used, depending on the system type that is being wired. The most commonly used terminals are shaded.
