Applications

The TEC Series Wireless Thermostat Controller
System provides wireless networked control of
Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC)
equipment on a Building Automation System (BAS)
that enables remote monitoring and programmin g. This
TEC Series System integrates into a supervisory
controller using BACnet® Internet Protocol (IP) or
BACnet Master-Slave/Token-Passing (MS/TP)
communications.

TEC20 Coordinators allow the supervisory contr oller to
communicate with multiple TEC Wireless Thermostat
Controllers.TEC200x-3 Series Wireless Thermostat
Controllers provide networked control of a variety of
staged equipment. TEC2003-3 Multi-Stage Wireless
Thermostat Controllers control multi-stage packaged
heating/cooling equipment.

The wireless mesh network uses ZigBe
to enable remote monitoring and programming and to
enhance reliability by providing redundant transmission
paths through other TEC Wireless Thermostat
Controllers, creating a resilient, self-healing mesh
network.

IMPORTANT: The TEC2003-3 Wireless
Thermostat Controller is intended to provide an input
to equipment under normal operating conditions.
Where failure or malfunction of the thermostat
controller could lead to personal injury or property
damage to the controlled equipment or other
property, additional precautions must be designed
into the control system. Incorporate and maintain
other devices, such as supervisory or alarm systems
or safety or limit controls, intended to warn of or
protect against failure or malfunction of the
thermostat controller.

Mounting

Location Considerations

Locate a thermostat controller:

For detailed information on locating devices for
optimum signal strength, refer to the Wireless Metasys
System Location Guide (LIT-12011294).

Mounting the Thermostat Controller

Follow these steps to mount the thermostat controller:

1. Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to loosen the
security screw on the bottom of the cover.

2. Pull the bottom edge of the cover and open the
thermostat controller as illustrated in Figure 1.

• on a partitioning wall, approximately 1.5 m (5 ft)
above the floor in a location of average
temperature

• away from direct sunlight, radiant heat, outside
walls, outside doors, air discharge grills, or
stairwells, or from behind doors

• away from steam or water pipes, warm air stacks,
unconditioned areas (not heated or cooled), or
sources of electrical interference

Allow for vertical air circulation to the thermostat
controller.

Wireless Signal Transmission Range

Line-of-sight transmission ranges between a
TEC20 Coordinator and a TEC Wireless Thermostat
Controller (or between TEC Wireless Thermostat
Controllers) can be less than the recommended
distances shown in Table 1. The effective transmission
range for indoor applications varies because of Radio
Frequency (RF) signal absorption and re flectio n due to
metal obstructions, walls (or floors), and furniture found

in typical building interiors.
