Your CT1950/CT1957 Programmable Electronic Line
Voltage Thermostat 
features digital temperature
sensing and control for energy efficient 
precision operation. It will provide the flexibility 
of 5-1-1 day or 7 day programming and 
exceptional comfort control of resistance-rated
heating equipment.The patented CoolSwitch™
design offers long service life.

Depending on local climate, night and day set-
back of space temperature can save up to 28%
of the energy used to heat a controlled zone.

According to the Electric Power Research
Institute, precision temperature control also offers
up to 12% energy saving during comfort periods
compared with conventional bi-metallic electric
heating thermostats.

CHECKOUT
When the thermostat is first powered up (or after 8 hours of continuous power loss), the display will blink for 2 seconds,
then undergo a self test, indicated by  

OOE for 15 seconds. Once the display shows 1:00 pm flashing, the internal

checkout is complete, and the thermostat is ready to program.

To verify the thermostat is turning on the baseboard heater, repeatedly press the [+] key until the displayed setpoint
exceeds the room temperature. The [°] symbol should be flashing. Feel near the baseboard heating element and the unit
should be starting to generate heat.

Press and hold the PROG key and the thermostat will return to its former RUN mode.

INSTALLATION

!

WARNING

•  This thermostat is a line voltage (240 Vac) control. Do not install it unless you are completely familiar and competent with house

wiring. If improperly handled, there can be a risk of 240 Volt electric shock hazard which may cause serious injury or death.

• The CT1950/CT1957 is rated for normal full load current on a dual residential 20 A circuit breaker or fuse block. Do not use on circuits

protected by higher-rated over-current protection devices. Some sustained fault conditions can cause product failure.

•  Do NOT connect to voltage different from device rating.

!

CAUTION

• Disconnect power supply before making wiring connections to prevent electrical shock or equipment damage.

•  All wiring must comply with applicable codes and ordinances.

•  Thermostats are designed to be used with appliances having a limit control.

• Maximum load for thermostat must not exceed 3800W, otherwise a potential fire hazard exists.

(ie. greater than 12 ft. of baseboard)

LOCATION: 
Install a vertical switch box for mounting the CT1950/CT1957 approximately 1.5 m (5 ft.) above the floor on an inside wall where the thermo-
stat will be subjected to average room temperature. The thermostat must be placed away from concealed warm or cold water pipes,
air ducts, or drafts from hallways, fireplaces or stairways to sense temperature properly. Do not place thermostat above heater.

3. When replacing an old line voltage wall thermostat, remove it carefully to avoid damage to the insulation on the wiring. Check the old 

insulation for cracks, nicks, or fraying and apply certified electrical tape where necessary to achieve adequate insulation, or replace 
the wires in an approved fashion.

4. Attach wires with solderless wire connectors approved for the size and number of wires to be connected. Be sure that all wire connectors

are tight.

CAUTION: Do not short 240 V supply wires with thermostat connected. This will damage the CT1950/CT1957 and void the warranty.

WARNING: To avoid risk of fire hazard, all connections to aluminum conductors must be made using approved 

CO/ALR solderless connectors.

5. Secure thermostat to the electrical box with captive mounting screws. Installation Hint: Prebend the solid conductors, then push them 

and the wire connectors into the electrical box before tightening the mounting screws.

6. Snap cover in place.

7. Turn power on.

THERMOSTAT PROGRAMMING  INITIAL POWER-UP

On first power up, the thermostat display will show a self test 

status, 00 E display for about 15 seconds, then go
blank for one second, followed by this display —
(broken line indicates 
section is flashing.) 

The thermostat will begin temperature 
control with the default setpoint at 61°F
(16°C) in the HOLD mode. It will continue to operate in this
manner until the user presses PROG and proceeds to set the
clock (Step 1) below.

Note: To Change display or functions (e.g. to °C or °F, or 
programming from 5-1-1 to 7-day) see instructions on 
Additional Functions, p. 11.

days (see Table 1 below). After the clock is set up, if the factory
set schedule is satisfactory, no more programming is required. The
thermostat will revert to normal RUN mode either by pressing and
holding the PROG key for 3 seconds, or left untouched for 5 min-
utes.
