General Description

This thermostat enables intellegent HVAC control as part of a Control4
automated system. It uses ZigBee (IEEE 802.15.4) wiring standards and
communicates to the Control4 system using a wireless connection.

The Control4 Wireless Thermostat features a backlit LCD display showing
time, temperature, date, fan status, hold status, and HVAC operating mode.
The front panel allows for temperature setpoint adjustment, HVAC mode
change, variable hold options and fan control. It can also operate as a stand­alone set-point thermometer if it loses communication with the system.

Installation

1 Place the thermostat in an good location to ensure its efficiency and

avoid unnecessary cycling of the furnace or air conditioner.

• Make sure the thermostat gets good ZigBee wireless reception by

(1) ensuring that the thermostat is not too far from another Zigbee
device and (2) avoiding electrical equipment that may cause
interference with the Zigbee signal (such as microwaves and
cordless telephones that operate on the 2.4 GHz frequency).

• Place thermostats and external thermostat sensors away from direct

sunlight, drafts, doorways, skylights, windows, and exterior walls.

2 Locate and turn OFF the power supply for the HVAC system.
3 If replacing an existing thermostat, check the number and type of wires

attached to your old unit. If installing a thermostat for the first time, see
“Sample Wiring Configuration” on page 2 for details on wiring the
thermostat.

4 When you are sure the power has been shut off, remove the old

thermostat's cover from its rear plate, but do not disconnect any wires
yet.

5 Unscrew and remove the old thermostat's rear plate from the wall.

Typically, the old thermostat has a letter identifying each wire. Use a
piece of tape to label each wire that corresponds to the letter on the old
thermostat.

TIP: You can wrap the wires around a pencil or tape them to keep
them from falling back into the wall.

6 Disconnect the old thermostat.

CAUTION! Discard the old thermostat properly or recycle it. Mercury

is a hazardous waste. You MUST dispose of it properly.

7 Route thermostat wires through the large, rectangular hole in the rear

plate and let wires hang. (Later steps describe how to match wires).

8 Position the new thermostat rear plate against the wall to make sure it

sits flush.

9 Use a small level or visually

check that the rear plate is
level, then mark the
locations of the three screw
holes on the wall.

10 Remove the rear plate

from the wall and drill 3/16­inch-mounting holes at the
three screw hole locations
you marked previously.

11 Press the plastic wall anchors that were included in the product into

the holes you drilled in Step 10.

12 Thread the wires from the

wall through the rear plate
of the new thermostat to
place the rear plate against
the wall.

13 Insert the mounting

screws into the wall anchors
and tighten them.

14 Connect the wires to the

screw terminals in the rear
plate, matching the labeled
wires (Step 5) to the letters on the terminals. The wiring can differ
depending upon the wires available, (see Sample Wiring
Configuration).

IMPORTANT! Do not connect the common ground lead to the
thermostat. Doing so can cause your system to malfunction.

15 Set the dipswitches that sit next to the battery compartment: set for

either an electric or fuel heating system; and for either a conventional or
heat pump system.

16 Install the CR123A (3V) battery (included with the product) in the new

Control4 thermostat faceplate according to labels on thermostat.

NOTE: If the battery was in place and you changed dip switch
settings, remove the battery and reinstall it. This forces the
thermostat to reboot with the new configuration.

IMPORTANT! Do not install the battery in the wrong polarity.

17 Install the faceplate to the thermostat rear plate. To do this:

1. Align the faceplate
with the rear plate and
push the straight pins to
the back of the
thermostat.

2. With the faceplate
slightly above the rear
plate, slide the top edge
of the faceplate onto the
rear plate, engaging the
plastic hooks with the
corresponding holes.

3. Press firmly on the
bottom center edge of
the faceplace to snap
and lock the bottom
connector in place.

18 Turn ON power supply for the HVAC system.
19 T est the thermostat in both the auto and manual modes to confirm that

the furnace and air conditioner cycle on and off at the appropriate
settings. See the Control4 Thermostat User Guide for specific
instructions.

TIP: Keep in mind that you need to set back the temperature for at
least eight hours (either at night or while you are at work) to see a
noticeable energy savings.

Programming Instructions

As part of a Control4 system, the thermostat can follow a schedule with up to
six different set points per day. You can also control the thermostat using the
Wireless Touch Screen, the On-Screen Navigator (on your TV with the
System Remote Control), or the Mini Touch Screen. See the Composer

Online Help for programming instructions and see the Control4 Thermostat
User Guide for instruction on programming using one of the navigation

devices).

Troubleshooting

If thermostat is not working:

• Ensure HVAC system is not turned OFF.

• Check for proper wiring. (See the Sample Wiring Configuration sec-

tion.)
