Installation

The Lyric T5 WiFi Thermostat should be mounted in a suitable location.

• Install the thermostat about 5 ft. (1.5m) above the ﬂoor in an area with good air circulation at average temperature. See Fig. 1.

• Do not install the thermostat where it can be affected by:

– Drafts or dead spots behind

doors and in corners. – Hot or cold air from ducts. – Radiant heat from sun or

appliances. – Concealed pipes and

chimneys. – Unheated (uncooled) areas

such as an out side wall

behind the thermostat.

1 Turn OFF power (important!)

To protect yourself and the equipment, turn OFF the power at the breaker box or switch that controls your heating/ cooling system.

2 Make sure the power is OFF!

Try turning ON your heating/cooling system by changing the temperature. If you can’t get the system to turn ON in 5 minutes, you’ll know the power is OFF.

3 Take the faceplate off your old

thermostat.

On most thermostats, you can take off the faceplate by grasping and gently pulling. Some thermostats may have screws, buttons, or clasps.

Do not remove any wires from your thermostat.

4 Make sure there are no 120/240V

Thick bl

wires.

Do you have thick black wires with wire nuts? Is your thermostat 120V or higher? If you answered yes to either of these questions, you have a line voltage system and the Lyric thermostat will not work.

If you are unsure visit: yourhome.honeywell.com/support

5 Take a picture of how your wiring

looks right now.

Be sure to include the letters next to the terminals where the wires are inserted. This will be a helpful reference when wiring your Lyric thermostat.

6 Record if you have wires in the following terminals.

Do no include jumpers.

Check all that apply:

7 Record the existing wire conﬁguration.

Note the color of the wires that are plugged into your old thermostat’s terminals. You will need this information to correctly wire your Lyric thermostat.

Terminal Color of Wire

If there are wires in terminals that are not listed, you will need additional wiring support. Visit yourhome.honeywell.com/support to ﬁnd out if the

Lyric thermostat will work for you.

Tip: You can also use the wiring guide in the Lyric app to create a diagram of how to wire the new Standard 16 Connector.

8 Disconnect wires & remove the

old thermostat’s wall plate.

Use a screwdriver or a ballpoint pen to release wires from terminals.

Tip: To prevent wires from falling back into the wall, wrap the wires around your ballpoint pen.

9 Insert the wall anchors

(included).

It is recommended that you use the screws and wall anchors included in the box when mounting your thermostat.

You can use the Honeywell Standard 16 Connector to mark where you want to place the wall anchors. Drill bit size 7/32”.

10 Check for any paint gaps or screw

holes left by the old thermostat.

If you choose to use the optional Honeywell Decorative Cover Plate and Standard Installation Adapter to hide blemishes, snap the Connector to Installation Adapter. For more information see page 12.

11 Bundle and insert wires through

the new Honeywell Standard 16 Connector.

Gather the wires and guide them through the hole in the middle of the Standard 16 Connector.

Make sure at least 1/4-inch of each wire is exposed for easy insertion into the wire terminals. You can use the “wiring guide” on the Standard 16 Connector door to measure the correct length for exposed wire.

OPTIONAL:

Use either small or large Decorative Cover Plate sold separately to cover any paint gaps or screw holes left by the old thermostat.

(For more info where to purchase thermostat accessories, go to yourhome.honeywell.com)

First attach Connector to Installation Adapter (picture 1 and 2). In the next step, attach Decorative Cover Plate to create a tight ﬁt of the thermostat to wall (picture 3).

12 Review your answer from Step 6.

Set the R-switch up or down based on your wiring notes in Step 6.

If there is only one wire connected to R, then your system uses this wire to power both heating and cooling. Set the R-switch to the up position.

If you have an R or Rh, and Rc wire, then your system uses R or Rh to power the heating system and Rc to power the cooling system. Set the R-switch to the down position.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will Lyric thermostat still work if WiFi connection is lost?

Yes, the temperature can be adjusted directly at the thermostat. However, some features, including shortcuts and geofencing, are managed only through the Lyric app and will not function while the connection is down. The Lyric thermostat will automatically reconnect to WiFi once the network is restored.

Lyric thermostat is not finding the in home WiFi network.

Lyric thermostat operates in the 2.4GHz range. That may be why the Lyric thermostat does not see the network but the smartphone, which operates in both the 2.4 and 5.0 GHz range, sees the network. Most routers will broadcast two networks, one SSID on the 5.0 GHz radio and one SSID on the 2.4 GHz radio.

Can Lyric thermostat be used in a home that does not have WiFi?

Lyric thermostat can work as a basic thermostat without WiFi. The key features, including location based temperature control and custom shortcuts, require a WiFi connection.

Why does the screen on the Lyric thermostat go blank?

When someone is not touching the thermostat, the display goes to sleep to conserve energy or to not disturb you at night. The thermostat can still be controlled through the Lyric app. Touching the thermostat screen wakes it up. You can adjust default display behavior in menu of the thermostat.

A change was made on the Lyric app but it has not shown up on the Lyric thermostat.

There may be a short delay after making temperature and setting changes in the app.

Can there be multiple users for geofencing?

Yes, there can be multiple users. Geofencing will trigger based on the last person to leave and the ﬁrst person to return. To properly use geofencing with multiple users:

• Each user needs to create their own Lyric account.

• Each user should use their login ID and password across his or her devices, including smartphones and tablets.

• No two users should share the same account.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are multiple users set up with Lyric thermostat?

Access can be given to any or all Lyric thermostat locations through the Lyric app. Start by pressing the three-line menu icon in the upper left-hand corner of the home screen. Press the gear wheel next to the location name. Select Users and press + Add User located at the bottom of the screen. Type in the email address of the person to be invited. If they have a Lyric account set up, the location will be automatically added to their account. If they don’t have an account, they will receive an email invitation prompting them to download the app and create their own account.

Note: All individuals with access to a thermostat share the same user privileges. Users added will be able to change the thermostat’s settings and shortcuts, as well as add or delete other users.

Is there a way to extend the signal strength?

The range or distance of the WiFi signal is determined by the homeowner’s router. Check the router’s manual for additional information.

There is a alert that says WiFi Signal Lost. What does that mean?

The WiFi signal to the Lyric thermostat has been lost. Wait for the thermostat to reconnect or select a new network within the Lyric app conﬁguration menu. If the thermostat is unable to reconnect, you will need to troubleshoot the router to determine the cause.

Why is the thermostat showing up as offline (strike-through WiFi icon) on top of right corner of thermostat display?

If the Lyric thermostat displays a strike-through WiFi icon on its screen or shows up as ofﬂine on the Lyric app, it has lost connection to the network. Make sure the router is powered and broadcasting. The home’s WiFi network may need to be reset by power cycling the router. Consult the router’s instruction manual for directions on power cycling. When the network has been restored, the thermostat will automatically reconnect.

An activation email hasn’t been received.

An email will be sent from connectedHome@alarmnet.com. An activation email is needed to complete the Lyric account setup. If an activation email is not received after ﬁve minutes, check the Spam folder of the email account.

If you do not ﬁnd it in the Spam folder, click on the Resend button and the activation email will be resent. If you still do not receive your activation email, please contact the Lyric Technical Support team at 18006333991 for help.
