PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The TB7200, TB7300, and TB7600 Series wireless
communicating thermostats are ideal for retrofit applications
where the addition of communicating field bus wiring within
the building space is prohibitive. These wireless thermostats
allow for the use of equipment wiring used by existing
electronic thermostats.
The Honeywell wireless thermostats, along with the
TB-VWG-APP-1014 wireless communication card and the
network driver and device .jar files, are specifically designed
to be used by Honeywell WEBs-AX controllers WEB-2xx,
WEB-6xx, and WEB-7xx controllers powered by Niagara
This reference document provides wireless installation
guidelines, .jar file installation, wireless thermostat setup in
WEBStation-AX, and reference information on the available
wireless objects and object properties supported by each
wireless model.
NOTE: Wireless installations require careful consideration of
the environment where the wireless devices will be
installed. We highly recommend a site survey be
performed prior to bidding on or accepting a job.

    WEB-7xx 3.5 or later Honeywell .jar files The network and device .jar files are required for the Honeywell ZigBee wireless thermostat network. You can download the files from the Honeywell Buildings Forum (http://buildingsforum.honeywell.com). ZIGBEE MESH NETWORK OVERVIEW ZigBee is a specification for a suite of high level communication protocols using small, low-power digital radios based on the IEEE 802.15.4-2003 standard for wireless personal area networks (WPANs).
  • Page 3: Basic Initial Design And Deployment Considerations

    • Honeywell recommends using a per floor horizontal architecture vs. a vertical one. Transmitting from one floor to the other may be possible in certain applications (such as going through stairways), but the design and optimization of the thermostat antenna is designed for optimal horizontal distance penetration and not a vertical one.
  • Page 4 • In order to avoid interference from other wireless devices, such as wireless routers, wireless adapters or laptops using wireless networks, etc., ensure that a minimum distance of 3 feet (1 meter) is maintained between any Honeywell wireless device and any Wi-Fi devices. A distance of 10 feet (3 meters) or more is preferred when possible (Fig. 3).

  • Page 6: Performing A Site Survey

    NOTE: To ensure a proper survey, Honeywell recommends using ONLY channels 15 or 25 to avoid network interfer- ence with 802.11 Wi-Fi devices in the 2.4GHz spectrum range. Begin by setting BOTH devices to the SAME channel &...
  • Page 7 WIRELESS INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION REFERENCE GUIDE FOR TB7200/TB7300/TB7600 SERIES THERMOSTATS At the Job Site 1. Begin by positioning the controller with the wireless communication card centrally in the floor space you are working in. 2. Find the coverage radius of the controller at its proposed location. This coverage radius is the first hop from the controller. Any thermostat or repeater should be NO FARTHER than 5 hops to and from the WEBs-AX controller with the wireless communication card.
  • Page 8 WIRELESS INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION REFERENCE GUIDE FOR TB7200/TB7300/TB7600 SERIES THERMOSTATS Move to another cluster of thermostats at different points to determine the radius. This represents the maximum radius of the first hop where connectivity is possible based on the building environment and partition construction. Please note that this distance can be anywhere from 0 to hundreds of feet (Fig.
  • Page 9 WIRELESS INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION REFERENCE GUIDE FOR TB7200/TB7300/TB7600 SERIES THERMOSTATS NOTE: To force an immediate reading from the thermostat, right click on the thermostat, select Actions > Ping. Fig. 11. Ping a thermostat to get an immediate reading of the thermostat's transmission signal (TRSS) at the station. 5.
  • Page 10 • You should always plan for a floor by floor horizontal architecture vs. a vertical one. • Additional controllers with wireless card can be used when clusters become too far apart in an installation. • You can always contact your Honeywell sales representative for recommendations if you have a floor plan layout available for review.
  • Page 11: Best Practices For Initial Network Start-Up

    WIRELESS INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION REFERENCE GUIDE FOR TB7200/TB7300/TB7600 SERIES THERMOSTATS BEST PRACTICES FOR INITIAL NETWORK START-UP The startup of a ZigBee wireless network is easy once you understand how devices join the network. Review this section to learn how to do the initial network startup so all devices join the network. Six Addresses Per Device ZigBee is a standard which is suitable for wireless thermostat networks.
  • Page 12 WIRELESS INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION REFERENCE GUIDE FOR TB7200/TB7300/TB7600 SERIES THERMOSTATS HOW ORPHAN NODES ARE CREATED IN THE FIELD Example: 2 small buildings are within a few feet of each other. Both have 6+ devices each (Fig. 15). NOTE: A configuration like this, with communicating thermostats split between two buildings, is not recommended. Premises •...
  • Page 13 The Honeywell wireless card (TB-VWG-APP-1014) and related Honeywell TB7200, TB7300, and TB7600 wireless thermostats use ZigBee/IEEE 802.15.4 physical layer for communication. The WEBs-AX controller with the wireless communication card acts as network coordinator device for the IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee network used with the Honeywell wireless thermostats. A recommended typical maximum of: •...
  • Page 14: Programming In Webs-Ax Workbench

    The following instructions assume you are familiar with the WEBs-AX Workbench and its related functions. This section guides you through the steps to set up a Honeywell wireless network in WEBs-AX. Install the wireless communication card (TB-VWG- APP-1014) on a WEBs-AX controller before you begin.
  • Page 15 WIRELESS INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION REFERENCE GUIDE FOR TB7200/TB7300/TB7600 SERIES THERMOSTATS Configuring the Wireless Communication Card 1. Right click on the WirelessTstatNetwork driver, select Views, then Property Sheet. 2. Enter the Port Name for the wireless card in the Serial Port Config section. WEB-2xx and WEB-6xx controllers must use option slot 1 on the controller and must be set to COM1.
  • Page 16 WIRELESS INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION REFERENCE GUIDE FOR TB7200/TB7300/TB7600 SERIES THERMOSTATS 4. The Status field at the top of the Property Sheet should display (ok). This means your wireless card on the controller is recognized. 5. Click on the Save button to save your settings and to properly start the network. As soon as a valid PAN ID and Channel are given to the WEBs-AX controller’s wireless communication card, any thermo- stat having the same configuration of PAN ID and Channel can be detected and registered to the wireless card.
  • Page 17 WIRELESS INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION REFERENCE GUIDE FOR TB7200/TB7300/TB7600 SERIES THERMOSTATS Adding Thermostats to a Station This section describes how to add wireless thermostats to a station. 1. Double click on the WirelessTstatNetwork in the Nav pane. 2. Click on the Discover button, and click OK. If desired, you can enter the lowest and highest thermostat Com Addr number in the Device Low Limit and Device High Limit text boxes if you want to limit the number of devices discovered.

    WIRELESS INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION REFERENCE GUIDE FOR TB7200/TB7300/TB7600 SERIES THERMOSTATS TROUBLESHOOTING System Troubleshooting Recommendations 1. If a thermostat/repeater is not detected by a WEBs-AX controller, verify that the LED is blinking at least 4 times. For any devices to be added to the database, 4 short blinks have to be seen on the thermostat/repeater network card. If it is only blinking twice, ensure that the PAN ID and Channel of the thermostat/repeater is the same as the WEBs-AX controller it must communicate with.
