2 Installation 2 Installation Mounting ● ● ● ● ● ● Installing the thermostat The thermostat is designed for wall mounting. The recommended height is 5 feet above the floor. Do not mount the thermostat in recesses, shelves, behind curtains or doors, or above or near heat sources. Avoid direct exposure to sun and drafts. Seal the conduit and/or wall opening, as drafts can affect sensor readings. Observe maximum ambient conditions. 1.
Installation 2 4. Disconnect all the labeled wires and then remove the old thermostat. NOTICE! Do not discard the old thermostat in the trash if it contains mercury. Contact a thermostat recycling organization, for example, www.thermostat-recycle.org, for safe disposal of the old thermostat. 5. Check whether more wires are needed to bring 24 Vac power from the HVAC equipment to the thermostat. If yes, prepare the wires and label them accordingly. 6.
2 Installation Tip: Before installing the power unit, it is highly recommended the labeled wires be connected to the terminals snugly according to the thermostat terminal designations (you may also refer to the picture taken in Step3). Do not overtighten. NOTICE! a) The following illustration is for reference, which may be different from the wiring for your application.
Installation ● ● ● ● Siemens Industry, Inc. Smart Infrastructure 2 Observe local codes regarding wire type, overcurrent protection and ground. For HVAC systems with a single transformer, the RH-RC jumper must remain in place. If separate transformers are used for heating and cooling systems, remove the RH-RC jumper. 24 Vac supply line must have a circuit breaker with a rated current of no more than 4 A. The total current rating should not exceed 3.3 A.
3 Setup wizard 3 Setup wizard When the thermostat is powered up for the first time, a setup wizard displays to guide you through the following procedures: ● Setting a display language ● Setting an administrator password ● Setting up a network connection and choosing the network connection type ● Selecting an equipment type and setting up the details ● Configuring date ● Specifying a name to the location where the thermostat is installed For more details, see the Quick guide.
Presence detection Presence detection using the built-in PIR sensor 4 4 Presence detection 4.1 Presence detection using the built-in PIR sensor By using a built-in presence detection sensor (also called PIR (Passive infrared detector) sensor), the thermostat can detect the space occupancy and then do the following: ● Activate the idle display. When no operations are performed, the thermostat detects whether someone is in the room or not.
4 Presence detection Approach detection Sensor detection range A The width of each cell. It is 80 cm (31 in). B The thermostat. C The height of each cell. It is 80 cm (31 in). D The area that the PIR sensor can detect. To disable the switch from Unoccupied to Comfort even if the room is occupied 1. From the Home screen, tap , tap and then tap . 2. If prompted, enter the administrator password. 3. Tap , tap detector. , and then tap . Scroll down and tap Room presence 4.

If the thermostat receives an input from a condensation monitor, it will display a notification on the mobile app. The thermostat does not alter operation based on this input. – Room air quality Change input signal types based on the assigned input type.
5 Changing system setup detected to have worse air quality than the configured room air quality setpoint under the Optimization page. *) If 0 to 10 V is selected as the signal type, a DC 0 to10 V active sensor must be connected with the thermostat. Otherwise, the calculated value may not be accurate. To change the extended configurations 1. On the Advanced Settings page, tap . 2. If prompted, enter the administrator password. 3. Tap and then tap . 4. Tap OK to stop all the thermostat’s applications.
