Wiring the EcoInsight/EcoSource 1. Locate the wiring in the HVAC Unit. 2. Review the table below and determine where the EcoInsight/EcoSource will be mounted. Mounting Best Practice Consideration RF Interference If the EcoInsight/EcoSource will be mounted inside a metal HVAC unit or in a room with a large amount of metallic equipment, an external antenna may be necessary.

17. Starting at the bottom of the terminal block and working up, use a Phillips screwdriver to secure each of the HVAC wires into the appropriate pins on the terminal block. See Figure 2. Figure 2: Connecting Wiring from Bottom to Top 18.
Wireless Installation of the EcoAir 1. Review the table below and determine where the EcoAir will be mounted. Mounting Best Practice Consideration Temperature The EcoAir should be mounted on a wall away from heat or cold sources that could affect its temperature reading.

Figure 5: EcoSource and Join Code 9. Verify the LED on the front of the EcoSource blinks a “Red, Red, Green” sequence. 10. Wait 60 seconds for the EcoSource to find the network. 11. Verify that the EcoSource reboots. 12. Verify that the LED on the front of the EcoSource is lit solid green. Continue to Step 18. 13.

18. Using the paperclip or pen, press the pushbutton on the front of the EcoConnect once. The LED on the front of the EcoConnect should change from blinking green to solid green. This means the EcoConnect will no longer accept join requests from ZigBee devices. 19.
EcoAir to EcoInsight/EcoSource Association Associating One EcoAir with One EcoInsight/EcoSource (Standard) In most installations, one EcoAir will be associated with one EcoInsight/EcoSource. The EcoInsight/EcoSource manages Recovery Time calculations, temperature profiles, and HVAC drift and drive. The EcoAir acts as a remote control to change settings on the EcoInsight/EcoSource.

Figure 9: Maintenance → Learn Menu With 1 Device Associated, In Learn Mode 9. Hold the “On / Off” button on the EcoAir until the EcoAir displays two digits on its screen. This may take up to 10 seconds. The displayed digits will be the last two digits of the EcoInsight’s serial number. 10.
Associating One EcoAir with Multiple EcoInsights/EcoSources (Multi-Bind) In some installations, one EcoAir may communicate with multiple EcoInsights/EcoSources. One EcoInsight/EcoSource, designated the Master EcoInsight/EcoSource, manages the Recovery Time calculations and temperature profiles. All other EcoInsights/EcoSources, designated Slave EcoInsights/EcoSources, drift or drive their own HVAC unit at the command of the Master EcoInsight/EcoSource. The EcoAir acts as a remote control to change settings on the Master EcoInsight/EcoSource.

23. If your device is an EcoSource, continue to the next step. If your device is an EcoInsight, continue to Step 30. 24. Locate the recessed push button above the LED on the Slave EcoSource. 25. Using the paperclip or pen, press the push button three times. The Slave EcoSource LED will double- blink red.
