The EcoSmart Energy Management System any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. The EcoSmart Energy Management System reduces HVAC energy consumption without interfering with occupant comfort. EcoSmart thermostats such as the EcoAir/EcoTouch automatically learn and adapt to the heating and cooling patterns of each room.
EcoAir/EcoTouch thermostats in different areas of a building give each individual area the ability to make setpoint changes to control a single EcoSource+. Together, the EcoWave package forms a wireless programmable controllable thermostat with over 125 configurable settings used to control the efficiency of HVAC systems. It can be easily installed on packaged terminal air conditioners, fan coils, heat pumps, split systems, and more.
EcoSmart VRF Controller: Part of the EcoWave Remote Thermostat/Controller Package EcoSmart VRF Controller: Part of the EcoWave Remote Thermostat/Controller Package The EcoWave package is comprised of two hardware components as shown below. Together they form a wireless programmable controllable thermostat. With software-based relay control and fan speed configuration, programming setup is simple and fast.
EcoSmart VRF Controller: Part of the EcoWave Remote Thermostat/Controller Package Multiple EcoTouch+ (or EcoAirs) can control one HVAC system, equipped with one EcoSource VRF. The wiring interface conforms to industry standards. Telkonet can develop specific wiring diagrams, if a complete specification is provided for the HVAC unit(s) in use at the site.

EcoSmart VRF Controller Required Equipment Caution Power to the indoor unit should be removed before connecting the EcoSmart VRF Controller. Communication The EcoAir and EcoTouch+ communicate with the EcoSmart VRF Controller via a 2.4GHz wireless interface. Join & Pair Set up the EcoAir & EcoSmart VRF Controller to talk to each other by “pairing” them. If EcoSmart products will be networked, they must first “join” the network (see steps below).
EcoSmart VRF Controller Installation 1. Mount EcoSmart VRF Controller next to indoor unit so harness connects directly to indoor unit terminals (see Figure 7 & Figure 8). Figure 3 Figure 4 2. Turn off power at EcoSmart VRF Controller mounting location using a disconnect switch or breaker lockout/tag out on appropriate breaker panel. 3. Test that power is off by using a voltmeter. 4. Using the end tabs, screw the EcoSmart VRF Controller to the wall or HVAC. 5.

ZigBee Wireless ZigBee Wireless Telkonet’s suite of products—including the EcoSmart VRF Controller —rely on the ZigBee wireless communications protocol. Field Modifications-Functional Caveats Telkonet ships equipment to customers pre-programmed based on a pre-deployment analysis and discussion with Property Management. Generally, command-level programming at the field level will not be needed. When a command change is needed, Telkonet will provide a detailed synopsis of the proposed changes.
Regular Maintenance In most cases, entering the room will have initiated an HVAC drive cycle after the Sensor detected occupancy. Possible exceptions: -If the temperature in the room is within hysteresis of the HVAC setpoint, a drive cycle may not commence; -A delay may have been programmed into the EcoSmart VRF Controller thermostat, instructing the unit to wait for a particular duration before triggering a drive. (Although uncommon, this feature is sometimes requested by a property.
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting If the EcoSmart VRF Controller loses association to any one of its sensors, either the on-board PIR sensor or the external EcoSense or EcoContact, the thermostat will immediately revert to Occupied mode. This is done to ensure that sensor association loss does not affect the comfort of the room occupant. Any setpoint limits (e.g. max/min allowed temperatures) that have been assigned to the thermostat remain in force.
Troubleshooting Window or outside door is open. 7 EcoSmart VRF Controller I, O & M Guide For Use with Firmware Version 2.x Troubleshooting Revision 2.3 Page 17 Ensure that no monitored windows or patio doors are open.
