Configuring Nest with Pro Setup

Pro Setup lets installation professionals quickly configure the way Nest controls an HVAC system. Complex
systems such as dual fuel systems, humidifiers and dehumidifiers require Pro Setup. Nest recommends
professional installation to homeowners with these systems. Pro Setup can be used the first time you set
up Nest or anytime through the SETTINGS menu.

What is Pro Setup?

Pro Setup allows HVAC technicians to configure how Nest controls your system. Pro Setup can configure
both simple and complex systems. However, some configuration options are only available using Pro Setup.
During setup, Nest will ask if you are a professional installer and allow pros to bypass the standard setup
interview for the homeowner. Pro Setup can also be accessed in the EQUIPMENT section of SETTINGS at
any time.
If Pro Setup is configured incorrectly it could cause problems with your HVAC system. Therefore, Nest
strongly advises that only trained installation professionals use Pro Setup.

How do I enter Pro Setup?

During setup on a Nest Learning Thermostat, you'll be asked if you're a homeowner or a professional. If you
answer "professional," you'll receive Pro Setup options.
To enter Pro Setup on the Nest Learning Thermostat after initial setup:
Go to SETTINGS > EQUIPMENT > CONTINUE > CONTINUE > PRO SETUP
Read the disclaimer. Only continue if you're an HVAC professional.

How do I use Pro Setup?

Pro Setup gives you the ability to identify and configure how Nest should
control each wire you connect to the Nest base.
When you first enter Pro Setup, you'll see an image of the Nest
connectors. Connectors with wires attached will be be
highlighted in green or yellow. Green indicates that the wire has
only one default setting. The Rc, Rh, C, and G connectors are
examples. Yellow indicates connectors with multiple options.
Nest selects default settings for these connectors, but you'll
want to verify and/or modify these settings to make sure Nest
is controlling each wire appropriately.
To configure a wire, just turn the ring to highlight each connector
and press to select it.
Each wire will show Type, which describes the function of that wire. In
most cases the Type cannot be modified - it's dictated by the wiring
configuration and by whether or not the system is dual fuel. The Type for the * connector is always
customizable.
Connectors that control a heating or cooling function will also have a Source setting (to identify the type of
fuel used to heat or cool) and a Delivery setting (to describe how heating or cooling is distributed
