Please help. I have the following connection on my old thermostat:
Y - Yellow wire
G - Green wire
R - Red wire
O - Brown wire
C- Blue wire
W2 - White wire

I have the following options on my new thermostat:
G
W/B
Y/O
RC
RC1
RH
Y1

From reading other posts, I have come up with:
Y - Yellow = Y1
G - Green = G
R - Red = RH
O - Brown = Y/O
C - Blue = RC
W2 - White = W/B

I have not connected this unit, yet. I have read where RC and RH are jumped.
The instructions on this thermostat state to remove the RC - RH jumper
for 5-Wire Systems. Please confirm or correct my attempt to install this unit.
Thank you.

As the manual says on page 11 "NOTE: If a wire marked “C” is present, DO NOT connect it to the thermosat." You thermostat is battery powered only and will not power from a transformer.

Thanks. Perhaps, I should have read the manual more carefully.

No-where, not needed with a battery only operated tstat

Thank you for all the help. I connected the thermostat and everything seems to be working great. I did have to jump the RH and RC connection. I do not understand why I had to jump it when the directions indicate not to. Thanks again.

The heat is working also; I just checked it. Neither of my thermostats have the emergency heat function. Thank you.
