Test Equipment

This section allows you to manually turn on and off the
various equipment connected to the Equipment Interface,
in order to test the wiring and connections.
If an optional Remote Sensor module is installed this
section will display the actual value (in ohms or volts)
being read by the module for each individual sensor.
Warning: Compressor protection and minimum run-time
features are not enforced while in this mode.
In any of the screens within this section, the equipment
will turn off when you select Done.

Sensors

This section allows you to configure the detector inputs
on the Equipment Interface. This can be used to connect
optional flood sensors, or other leak-detection devices.
Once an input has been triggered, it will generate an alert
on the touch screen and send an e-mail if the Thermostat
has been registered with a web portal. Each input can be
configured as normally open, where a short-circuit between
the IN1+ and IN1 will activate the alert, or normally closed,
where an open circuit will activate the alert.
To activate any input, select the input and program a
name. To deactivate the input, simply delete the name.

Setting Up the Remote Sensor Inputs

(requires optional EB-RSM)
Name
To enable, simply enter a name for this input (i.e. Door
sensor). To disable this input delete the name assigned.
Type
This defines the type of input.
Configure In this section you can choose from a
predetermined list of commonly available sensors. If
your sensor is not on the list you can create a new one
by entering the specific parameters. For temperature
you will need the B value of the sensor or the
resistance value of the sensor at 70F (21C) these are
found on the sensor manufacturers data sheet.
Note: The remote sensor support only 10K NTC type
temperature sensors.
27 Configuring The Smart Thermostat
usage
This section allows to configure what function this
sensor needs to perform
Control Sensor This option configures the sensor
to be part of the HVAC control. These sensor can
then be configured to replace or be part of a the
Thermostat Set temperature. Refer to page 27 in the
User Manual to configure Set Temperature Average.
Monitoring Sensor This option configures the
sensor to monitor areas independently of the HVAC
system (ie freezers, wine cellars etc).
Outdoor Sensor This options allows you to use a
outdoor temperature sensor in place of the internet
weather feed. The value measured here will be used
for any control or dual fuel algorthiims and it will
be displayed on the Thermostat. The Thermostat
will coniintuie t use the internet weather feed for
the 5-day forecast
