About INSTEON Wireless Thermostat
INSTEON Wireless Thermostat is a wireless, battery-operated, one-day programmable, INSTEONcompatible thermostat. INSTEON Wireless Thermostat includes a humidity sensor and the ability to
communicate via RF to other INSTEON devices, including INSTEON Thermostat.
INSTEON Wireless Thermostat is not directly wired to the HVAC (Heating Ventilating and Air
Conditioning) system. If you want to control the HVAC system with INSTEON Wireless Thermostat, you
need to install at least one INSTEON Thermostat, then link INSTEON Wireless Thermostat as a wireless
controller of INSTEON Thermostat.
INSTEON Wireless Thermostat may also be used as a standalone INSTEON controller of other
INSTEON responders, activating scenes to turn on standalone heaters and fans based on room
temperature status.
Expand your INSTEON thermostat system by creating extra temperature zones in your home with
additional INSTEON Wireless Thermostats. Simply link each accessory INSTEON Wireless Thermostat to
your main INSTEON Thermostat and primary INSTEON Wireless Thermostat.

Troubleshooting
Problem Possible cause Solution
After powering up or a factory
reset, INSTEON Wireless
Thermostat displays a two-digit
error code instead of the ambient
temperature.
I replaced my INSTEON Wireless
Thermostat with a new one, but
now SmartLinc and INSTEON
app don’t recognize it.
It didn’t boot up fully. Remove batteries from INSTEON
SmartLinc and the INSTEON app
communicate vian INSTEON
I.D.s. They are still trying to
communicate to the old
thermostat I.D.
Wireless Thermostat, wait a few
seconds, then reinstall. If
problem persists, call the
INSTEON Support Line.
Update the INSTEON I.D. on
both SmartLinc and the
INSTEON app with your new
thermostat I.D.
