Hot-LinkPlus-e SmartPlug Installation:
1. The Hot-LinkPlus-e SmartPlug control is designed for use with
Taco's Hot-LinkPlus-e 006e3 ECM High-Efficiency circulator.
2.
Using the black sensor strap provided, attach the SmartPlug
sensor to the HOT water supply pipe from the hot water heater.
USE
EXTREME
CAUTION
TEMPERATURE SENSOR ON THE HOT WATER SUPPLY
PIPE AS PIPE TEMPERATURE MAY BE EXTREMELY HOT.
The sensor must be strapped at least 18" away from the hot
water source to ensure proper sensor temperature readings. The
"flat" side of the sensor should be strapped directly to the hot
water supply pipe using the black sensor strap provided. If the
supply pipe is insulated it will be necessary to remove the
insulation at the point where the sensor is installed to ensure
accurate sensor readings.

FCC STATEMENT:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful inter-
ference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or televi-
sion reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the follow-
ing measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between

3. Install the SmartPlug temperature sensor.
Connect the 2 wire leads on the temperature
sensor to the green sensor connector termi-
nal block by loosening the 2 set screws.
Insert the 2 wire leads from the temperature
THE
sensor into the terminal slots on the terminal
connector and tighten the 2 set screws. Be
careful not to over tighten screws as you
may damage the terminal connector. Once
the temperature sensor wires are securely
fastened, insert the terminal block into the
SmartPlug receptacle labeled "SENSOR".
NOTE: The SmartPlug sensor is provided
with a 10' lead wire. Some installations may require a sensor
lead wire in excess of 10'. If the sensor lead length needs to be
increased, standard "18 AWG" gage wire and 2 wire nuts can be
spliced into the temperature sensor lead wires to extend the
overall length.
4. Plug the SmartPlug into a properly grounded 120V wall outlet. All
LED's will illuminate and a 10 second diagnostic check will begin.
5. Plug the 006e3 line cord into SmartPlug. The blue LED will
illuminate on the face of the 006e3. NOTE: The 006e3 is double-
insulated, so does not need to be grounded.
Setting the Hot-LinkPlus-e SmartPlug Operating Mode:
1. The Hot-LinkPlus-e SmartPlug has a MODE SELECT push but-
ton on the bottom of the control that allows for 2 operating
modes. "Smart" or "Pulse" mode can be selected by pressing the
MODE SELECT button located on the lower right side of the
control box. To set the mode, make sure the SmartPlug is
plugged into a properly grounded 120V outlet. A yellow LED
labeled "MODE" on the face of the SmartPlug identifies the
mode selected.
"Smart" Mode:
"Pulse" Mode:
Press and release the MODE SELECT button once to change
the mode.
2. The SmartPlug is also provided with a red "SENSOR" LED. If the
sensor is properly installed the "SENSOR" LED will not illumi-
nate. If the red LED is flashing, refer to the troubleshooting sec-
tion on page 4.
3. Installation and mode selection are complete.
4. To ensure the SmartPlug is providing hot water properly, open a
hot water tap at the fixture furthest away from the hot water tank.
Use CAUTION as the water may be extremely hot.
WARNING: For indoor use only.
WARNING: All local plumbing and electrical codes should be
followed when installing this product.
WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. This product is supplied with a
grounding conductor and grounding-type attachment plug. To
reduce the risk of shock, be certain that it is connected only to a
properly grounded grounding-type receptacle.
