P a g e
Mounting
the
SMT
‐
770
thermostat.
The
SMT
‐
770
can
only
be
as
accurate
as
the
onboard
temperature
sensor,
or
its
optional
remote
temperature
sensor(s)
permit.
It
is
therefore
essential
that
the
SMT
‐
770
be
installed
in
a
location
that
is
typical
of
the
ambient
room
temperature.
Do
not
install
the
thermostat
in
a
draft,
near
a
floor,
behind
doors
or
on
a
non
‐
insulated
external
wall.
Also
avoid
placing
the
thermostat
in
areas
where
the
air
movement
is
limited,
affected
by
direct
sunlight
or
other
areas
not
“typical”
of
the
temperature
of
the
room.
Further,
when
mounting
the
SMT
‐
770
be
aware
that
drafts
may
travel
down
the
inside
of
cavity
walls,
(especially
if
mounted
on
external
walls)
and
enter
the
back
of
the
thermostat
or
sensor
enclosure
through
the
cable
entry
holes
in
the
wall.
It
is
important
to
fully
seal
these
holes
to
prevent
any
drafts
affecting
the
internally
mounted
temperature
sensor.
It
is
recommended
to
mount
the
SMT
‐
770
or
remote
sensors
between
1.5
&
1.7
metres
from
the
floor
where
possible.
Move
the
control
wires
through
the
large
opening
in
the
thermostat
base
plate
then
place
the
thermostat
base
on
the
wall
and
using
appropriate
screws,
firmly
attach
the
thermostat
base
to
the
wall.
Block
any
holes
where
cables
enter
the
back
of
the
thermostat
to
prevent
drafts
entering
through
these
holes
affecting
the
sensor.
