Info

Zoned SystemsControl4 supports zoned HVAC systems using a zoning panel. If used, however, a commonwire needs to be installed at the Thermostat. Power stealing is not an option in this case.Remote Temperature SensorA Remote Temperature Sensor allows the Thermostat to get its temperature readings from anarea where the Thermostat is not physically located. Typically, the Thermostat will be locatednear the HVAC equipment with only the Remote Temperature Sensor on the wall in the livingarea. This creates a much cleaner install. In this case, the Thermostat settings would be controlledusing any of the Control4 user interfaces.A Remote Temperature Sensor is also a good solution in a retrofit when a common wire isnot available and power stealing is not an option. The Thermostat can be mounted in the mechanicalroom and wired directly to the HVAC equipment. The previously installed Thermostatwiring can then be used to connect the Thermostat to the Remote Temperature Sensor.6
Installation Instructions1234Place the Wireless Thermostat in a proper location to ensure its efficiency and to avoidunnecessary cycling of the furnace or air conditioner.a. Place the Thermostat (or remote temperature sensor) away from direct sunlight,drafts, exterior doorways, skylights, windows, and exterior walls.b. Make sure the Thermostat gets strong ZigBee wireless reception: (1) Ensure thatthe Thermostat is within 150 feet of another Zigbee device. (2) Avoid havingelectrical equipment that may cause interference with the Zigbee signal (suchas cordless telephones that operate on the 2.4 GHz frequency).Locate and turn OFF the power supply for the HVAC system.If installing a Thermostat in a new location, refer to “Sample Wiring Configurations” later inthis document for details on wiring the Thermostat, and then go to Step 5.If replacing an existing thermostat:a. Check the number and type of wires attached to the old thermostat.b. When you’re sure the power is shut off, remove the old thermostat from thewall, but do not disconnect any wires yet.c. If the old thermostat has a letter identifying each wire, use a piece of tape tolabel each wire that corresponds to the letter on the old thermostat, and ensurethey don’t fall back into the wall.d. Disconnect the old thermostat.CAUTION! Discard the old thermostat properly or recycle it. Mercury is ahazardous waste. You MUST dispose of it properly.7
