Need Help Please: Wiring diagram to connect Aprilaire Automatic Digital Humidist

Team,
Can you please someone help me for the exact wiring diagram for Aprilaire Automatic digital humidistat 60 to Lennox Healthy climate humidifier WB2-12 bypass humidifer.

Recently I have purchased an Aprilaire automatic digital humidistat 60 for the above mentioned humodifier.
Also I have the above humidifier connected with my home Lennox G43UF-24B-070-08 furnace (installed a 24vac transformer and hooked into the furnace circuit board.

Everything ok as per the wiring diagram comes with the humidistat, but doesn't turned on.
please need help.
Thanks

Then other side of humidifeir wire to C?

Hi Jay,

I have tried like the way as below...

From Furnace Terminals to Aprilaire Humidistat 60

R - R
C - C
W - W

From Aprilaire Humidistat
ODT ----> Outside Temperature Sensor

H ------> To Humidifier Yellow wire
H -------> To Humidifier Yellow wire

for the above methods I can see the humidistat powered up and once furncae HEAT on for call then saying that humidifier On light, but no clicking function of the sloenoid valve.
Also I have tried the other methods like the below...

Method-2
from Furnace Terminal W---> humidifier solinoid yellow wire
from Furnace Terminal C----> humidistat "H"
From Humidistat other "H"----> humidifier solinoid wilre

but no response,

Ok, I will try tonight the one you have referred above as "R"

Thanks

Ok, it's not wired up right.

On your first wire up.

R--R
W--W
C---C

Then jumper from R to H.

H to yellow wire on humidifier
Other yellow wire on humidifier to C.

Jay11J,

Great, works and really helped to get it done thanks for your kind help, really appreciated it.

below is my current wiring procedure.
R - R
C - C
W - W

Then removed Thermostat "G" wire from Furnace terminal strip and wired to Humidistat "G",
Then Humidistat "Gf" to Furnace terminal strip.

Finally jumper from "R" to one of the Humidifier solenoid valve yellow wire, and
jumper wired from "c" to one of the "H" terminal,
Then another "H" terminal to Humidifier solenoid valve yellow wire.

right now working good and have no other issue.
Still I didn't connected the "ODT" terminals to the outside temperature sensor (heavy snow outside and will do later days- will work hopefully).
I am using "MAN" (manual mode) now.
