I'm updating my thermostat and the one that I had is a ritetemp 8010 but the new digital thermostatRTH3100C wiring is not matching up
This is the old setup!
W-white
Y-yellow
G-green
O-orange
C-blue
RC-red
W2-brown
There is also a jump wire that was with the red one and it is RH
My new wires are
E
Aux
Y
G
O
L
R
B
C
Which I connect all of the wires but the w2 wire is not connected what wire are suppose to go where this setup is confusing...
Can you please help me connect the new one with the old setup or what must I do...

This is a heatpump, correct?

R----RED or RH AND RC NEED JUMPER BETWEEN THEM
B---Orange
AUX----Brown
G----Green
Y----Yellow
C-(COMMON)---Blue



This should do it, don't hook anything else up. This is assuming that you have auxiliary heat (electric heat strip)... and the reversing vale is to be powered in heat mode. If this doesn't work switch the Orange wire to the O- terminal. If this helps let me know.
