Vivint Element Installation Guide Wiring Testing the Installation Connecting Your Wires Reference the Detailed Wire Diagrams on page 26 to identify your wiring diagram and set-up information. If necessary, contact customer support for help. 1. Connect a labeled wire only to a matching lettered terminal. 2. Insert the terminal labeled wire with corresponding terminal. (e.g. G wire goes to G terminal). 3. Make sure to insert the wire into the terminal as far as it will go. The wire should be secure and cannot be removed easily. Powering the Thermostat The Thermostat can be powered from 24VAC or by four AA alkaline batteries. 24VAC Powered Installation The thermostat can be powered from the HVAC system’s 24VAC transformer. This re- quires both the “R” and “C” wire to be connected to the thermostat. This is the preferred power option. The 24VAC “C” wire is the other side of the HVAC system’s transformer and can be found where the other thermostat wires connect at the wall or at the HVAC system. It is com- monly a blue wire. Do not use the common or ground side of the line voltage. - Page 14 Vivint Element Installation Guide Wiring Battery Powered Installation Install four (4) AA alkaline batteries following the marked polarity in the battery com- partments. Insert the battery negative end first against the spring, then push the posi- tive end in.

Page 39: Z-Wave And Thermostat Programs
Z-Wave and Power Supply The thermostat’s node type is pre-determined when it connects to the Z-Wave network; if the C-Wire is not connected and is only battery-powered when connecting to the network, the thermostat will remain a frequent listening routing slave (FLiRS) node until it is removed from the network. When your thermostat is running on battery power, the Z-Wave radio will turn off to help conserve battery life. The Thermostat Z-Wave radio module supports Z-Wave beaming, which allows other devices in the network to wake up the Z-Wave module and accept commands and then go back to sleep. When your thermostat is running on C-Wire power, the Z-Wave radio will stay on and actively help route messages within the Z-Wave network. The thermostat’s node type is pre-determined when it connects to the Z-Wave network; if the C-Wire is present and powered when connecting to the network, the thermostat will remain an always-listening node until it is removed from the network. Z-Wave and Thermostat Programs You must connect the Thermostat to a Z-Wave network. This unit cannot operate without a network connection. When you are paired to a Z-Wave system, the Z-Wave application on your device controls your thermostat’s programs. You can still temporarily override settings on the thermostat itself, but otherwise you control it remotely. - Page 40 OPERATION GUIDE Element Product Overview ........................35 Home Screen ..............................36 Outside Temp Screen ..........................37 Menu Screen Settings Screen ......................38 Compressor Protection ........................39 Customization ..........................40 User Settings ..............................41 Units ................................... 41 Humidity ................................41 Display ................................42 Info ..................................42 Installer Settings ............................43 Equipment ..............................43 Calibration ..............................44 Cycling ................................43...
