The EcoSmart Energy Management System The EcoSmart Energy Management System is designed to reduce HVAC energy consumption without interfering with an occupant’s comfort. EcoSmart thermostats will automatically learn and adapt to the heating and cooling patterns of each room. For example, a room on the east side of a building will receive direct sunlight in the morning and will either need less HVAC heating or more HVAC cooling.
detect heat and motion. It is important to install the device in the optimal location and to aim the PIR correctly. EcoSense+ Introduction The EcoSense+ contains a PIR that detects both motion and heat to determine occupancy. It communicates information wirelessly to the EcoSmart thermostat. EcoSense vs EcoSense+: Installation Differences Remove the cover you’ll discover that the sensor is directional.
Field of View Anatomy of an EcoSense+ The elliptical cone (the smooshed cone) provides a viewing angle of 100º horizontally (x-direction) and 20º vertically (y-direction). Examples of applications in 3 common room configurations EcoSense+ IOM Guide For Use With Firmware V. 2.x Anatomy of an EcoSense+ Revision 2 Page 5 Telkonet, Inc. 20800 Swenson Drive, Suite 175 Waukesha, WI 53186 (800) 380-9640 www.telkonet.
Where to Aim PIR If There’s a Bed Mount close to pillows. Aim at the pillows. EcoSense+ IOM Guide For Use With Firmware V. 2.x Where to Aim PIR Revision 2 Page 6 Telkonet, Inc. 20800 Swenson Drive, Suite 175 Waukesha, WI 53186 (800) 380-9640 www.telkonet.
If There’s No Bed Mount on wall that people walk alongside. Aim at area that will detect the most foot traffic. PIR Rotation Design Distance to Occupant: If the occupants will likely be stationary (e.g. sleeping in bed), position the EcoSense within 12 feet of their expected location. If the occupants will move occasionally (e.g. working at desk), position the EcoSense within12-18 feet of their expected location. If the occupants will move regularly (e.g.
Step 4 Using 2 x 50lb EZ-Anchors with screws, mount the EcoSense+ backplate into the wall or ceiling. Aim the PIR *IMPORTANT STEP* Step 5 Insert the angle set screwdriver into the set screw. Step 6 Rotate the set screw which in turn rotates the PIR sensor to the desired position. Use the Current Position Indicator as your guide. See Figure 1 PIR Rotation Design. Step 7 Replace cover by lining up the backplate with the cover and gently twisting it clockwise until it is seated correctly.
Troubleshooting Problem Potential Cause Potential Solution Dispatch Maintenance to the room. Re-associate all sensors via procedures. Replace the batteries in all sensors within the room. “Service Sensor” appears on thermostat. One or more sensors have lost association to the thermostat. For wireless installations, ensure the EcoSense+ is mounted with a direct line-of-sight to the thermostat. The line-of-sight should not be obstructed by grills, registers, or spinning fan blades.
Problem Potential Solution Potential Cause 1. 2. EcoSenset+ lost communication with the network. The EcoConnect Coordinator has lost power. Plug the EcoConnect to its power source. Expect automatic EcoSource+ re-connection based on a specific interval attempt pattern (see table below*). How it Works: When EcoConnect power is lost, the EcoSource+ will automatically jump into action, attempting to reconnect to the EcoConnect at regular intervals.
