I've installed the 230B thermostat in my basement to control one zone of baseboard heat. The furnace is oil fired hot water and all the zones are run by zone valves. I must be missing something because the thermostat is not controlling properly.

Because I'm only using this for heat how do I hook this up properly? Also, there is a jumper in the thermostat but I'm not sure if I should leave it there or remove it.

Here is a link to the thermostst instructions.
