WR figure #4 the Honeywell called for a direct 24Vs to power the stat R-C,on the WR the C(other side of the TR) is G,Y,W when called for don't need dedicated 24v to run that WR stat.on that jumper always leave it in Rc-Rh for single TR systems.removing it.....if you had oil heat TR on the burner,or 2nd TR out in the condenser for the cooling side.your single TR in the furnace needs the jumper so the 24Vs is flipped over to the cooling or heating side during the seasons....stat can't do AUTO system setting without it.hope this helps i am saying this with the mind set your using the WR replacing the Honeywell to run the HVAC system and control the dampers!:huh:
Thermostat wiring question
My HVAC installer is no longer available (long story)
Anyway, I had him rough in a dampered system for the basement that's tied into the first floor Rheem Criterion unit. This way, I'd only have that area serviced when needed. He installed a Honeywell HZ-311 zone controller. He handed me a White-Rodgers 1F78H-144 thermostat to be installed after the drywall went up.
Here's my issue. There are 5 wires attached to the Honeywell(R, C, W, Y, G). The thermostat has W, RH, B, RC, G, O, and Y connectors with RH and RC jumpered.
I'm trying to figure out the wiring. Most of the connections are obvious. I'm wondering about the (C) wire and the jumper wire. Do I connect the (C) to (RC) and remove the jumper or do I not connect it and leave the jumper in place?
The Honeywell manual says to wire per the thermostat instructions.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
