EcoInsight Thermostat Installation Guide

Affixing the thermostat and tightening the safety screw

Step 4: Close the Thermostat

1. Hook the right side of the thermostat into the three hinges on the backplate and swing the unit closed.

Gentle, firm pressure on the left side should lock the thermostat into position. If you encounter resistance,

ensure wiring is in place. Carefully press the lever on the left side to allow it to slide into place.

2. Engage the safety screw using the security screw wrench provided by Telkonet.

3. For PTAC units, verify that the GFI (if equipped) has not been tripped.

4. Verify that the PTAC has been set to Class II (remote thermostat) operation (if applicable). Consult PTAC

manual for proper procedure.

5. Remove lockouts/tags from the power panel, and return the electrical circuit to operation.

6. Monitor the thermostat. The display should become active within a few seconds of power being applied. If no

display is seen within this period, switch the electrical circuit back off, re-affix lockouts and safety tags, and

evaluate the installation.

7. Test all components to confirm operation of heat, air conditioning, and all fan settings (high, low), etc.

Using the Buttons:

• The Up and Down arrows adjust the setpoint, or desired temperature.

• The On/Off button, in most cases, turns the unit off, or back on into the previous mode (heat or cool).

• The Fan button either changes the fan speed or simply turns the fan on and off, depending on the

configuration desired by your property.

The two buttons on the EcoInsight can be programmed to perform many different operations depending on the

preferences of the individual property. Common functions assigned to these buttons include:

• Heat button: Sends the thermostat into Heating mode.

• Cool button: Sends the thermostat into Cooling mode.

• Combination Heat/Cool button: Toggles between Heating mode and Cooling mode.

• Fahrenheit/Celsius button: Toggles between displaying the temperature in Fahrenheit or Celsius.

• Backlight button: Turns the backlight for the thermostat on or off.

• Green button: Changes the thermostat profile to a property-specific energy saving profile.
