Greetings all!

I hope someone can help...
I have a Ruud heat pump/handler w/ a Protech thermostat. As I am trying to replace the thermostat with a Honeywell RTH6300B, I need some guidance on the wiring.
Coming out of the wall I have...

Red - R
Orange - B
Yellow - Y1
Black - E
White - W2
Green - G
Brown - C

Question is, how do I match it to the R, G, Y, R, Rc of the new thermostat? Do I have the wrong thermostat?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

You have the wrong thermostat, you need a heat pump capable thermostat and it needs to be two stage heat .Mike

Greetings Mike!

Many thanks for the help!
Got to love the peoiple at Lowe's that made the return/replacement a snap. The replacement thermostat works like a champ!
