Thanks. I had a feeling that the damn thing was compatible. There's $80
down the drain!(anyone want to buy two brand new Lux ATX 1500 digital
thermostats?) Looks like I'm headed to Ebay.

I read through tons of the posts on this group, but none addressed my
specific issue. Hopefully, someone can help me figure out how to
install my two new
digital thermometers. (Lux ATX1500's) Anyway, the problem stems from
the fact that I am replacing very old mercury Flair thermostat that
has three wires connected to numbers, not letters. Therefore, I don't
know how they correspond to the new thermostat. The Flair's are wired
as follows:
White - #6
Red - #5
Green - #4

I connected the white to RH, which came pre-jumpered to RC on the Lux.
Green went to W and Red to Y. While the heat came on, it went up to 80
degrees and didn't come down as I had timed it to. I'm obviously
screwing something up.(I've tried several other combinations with the
same result) It's a heating only system, and I obviously
don't have the cooling mechanism wired correctly. (and maybe more) The
documentation doesn't help, and I can't find a thing on the Internet
on Flair thermostats. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

If those are the flair zone valves I think they are your new stat
isn't going to work with them. you need to call a pro to check the
system for you. I can't see what you have from here
