Environment
The control is designed for proper operation without
recalibration in ambient temperatures from 40C to +70C,
and for storage from 40C to +80C. Control will operate
with humidity up to 95%, non-condensing, and at altitudes
up to 13,000 feet (5000 meters).
Warning: Backfeed to a utility system can cause electrocution and/or property damage. Do not connect to any building's electrical system
except through an approved device or after building main switch is open.
