Wire Detection
Once you have wired the thermostat, the device will auto-detect your HVAC configuration. If the displayed
configuration does not match the wiring, you can easily adjust it by tapping the terminal on screen and forcing the
terminal to register.
Note:
If the C or RC connection is not detected, you will need to contact technical support.
Note:
GLAS requires a C-wire to be connected or the included C-wire adapter to be installed in the HVAC
system.
Note:
The C-wire adapter requires R, Y, and G thermostat wires to use the adapter to power the device.
Equipment Selection
For GLAS to properly control your system, select your heating configuration (single or dual stage), cooling
configuration (single or dual stage), heat pump, and auxiliary devices (if applicable). The device will use the
detected wires to provide you with the correct configuration options.
