ADC-T3000 SMART THERMOSTAT 2 Product Manual SMART THERMOSTAT 2 Product Manual | 1 • Before installing or servicing the thermostat, turn off power to the system at the circuit breaker. • Leave power off until you have finished installing or servicing. • Shorting the electric terminals at the control on the heating or cooling system may damage the thermostat. Do not test the system this way. • You must follow all local codes and ordinances for wiring the system. • This thermostat should only be powered by 2 AAA alkaline batteries or a listed class 2 power supply at 24 VAC (C-Wire or wall transformer). • An amperage higher than 1 amp through each thermostat terminal may cause damage to the thermostat. • Verify that the system is 24 VAC. If the old system is labeled as 120 or 240 volts or has wire nuts, the system is high voltage. Do not install the thermostat to a high voltage system. Contact a local HVAC professional for help.

SMART THERMOSTAT 2Product Manual | 5 4 | SMART THERMOSTAT 2 Product Manual LOCATION If replacing an old thermostat, the new thermostat can be mounted in its place. If a new location is desired it will be necessary to move the wiring. New installations and relocation should follow the accompanying guidelines to ensure the most accurate temperature reading and ease of use. PREPARATION • Mount thermostat on an inside wall, approximately 5 ft. (1.5m) above the floor in a frequently used room. • Do not install in locations near appliances or devices that affect the local temperature such as televisions, lamps, or dryers. • Avoid areas that are exposed to large temperature variances, such as: direct sunlight, near an AC unit, above or below auxiliary heat and air vents, and drafts from windows. • Be aware of what is on the other side of the wall where the thermostat is being installed. Do not install on walls adjacent to unheated rooms, stoves, or housing hot water pipes. • Damp areas will not only affect the humidity reading of the thermostat, but could lead to corrosion and shorten the life of the thermostat. • Install in a location with good air circulation. Stagnant air will not accurately reflect the rate of temperature change in the room. Avoid areas behind open doors, corners, and alcoves. • Wait until construction and painting are finished before installing. The Existing Thermostat 1. Test The System Verify that the heating and/or cooling system is operating properly before you try to install the new thermostat. DO NOT test the system by shorting electric terminals at the furnace or air conditioner. This may damage the thermostat. 2. Turn Power Off • Turn all heating and cooling systems off. This can be done at the circuit breaker. CAUTION: DO NOT REMOVE the existing thermostat until power has been turned off at the circuit breaker. Once power to the heating AND cooling systems is off, follow these steps: 3. Remove Thermostat Cover • Remove the cover from the existing thermostat. Do not disconnect the wires yet. Make sure the wires are identified correctly. If you have an unidentified wire, it may be necessary to identify the wire where it connects to the heating or air conditioning equipment. SMART THERMOSTAT 2 Product Manual | 7 6 | SMART THERMOSTAT 2 Product Manual INSTALL YOUR NEW THERMOSTAT CAUTION: Wiring can vary for each manufacturer. Identify all wiring before removing it from the existing thermostat. TIP: Take a picture of the wires before you detach them from the existing thermostat for future reference. • Disconnect all of the wires and remove the existing thermostat. TIP: Remember to secure the wires so they don’t fall into the wall. Prepare the Wires Follow these guidelines for safe and secure wire connections: • Ensure the wires are a proper gauge between18-24 AWG. • Make sure wires have exposed straight ends about 1/8” long. CAUTION: Verify that the system is 24 VAC. If the old system is labeled as 120 or 240 volts or has wire nuts, the system is high voltage. Do not install the thermostat to a high voltage system. Contact a local HVAC professional for help. Install the Back Plate Wire Your New Thermostat Use the bubble level provided on the back plate as a guide. Mark where the screws will go with a pencil through the screw holes on the back plate. Ensure the top of the back plate is facing up. Reconnect the wires to the new thermostat. TIP: If necessary, use the trim plate to cover up any marks or holes left from the old thermostat. Attach the trim plate before securing the back plate to the wall. TIP: Drill holes with 1/4” drill bit to tap in the drywall anchors for added support. TIP: If you have extra wires do not install them in the new thermostat. Please contact your local HVAC professional for additional assistance. • If you have R, connect it to RH. • Z1 or Z2 can be used for W3, H, DH, or EX. NOTE: If you have a 2-wire system (most common) or hydronic heating system, you must add the Power Resistor to the system. Connect this resistor at your heating equipment between the C and W terminals. 8 | SMART THERMOSTAT 2Product Manual SMART THERMOSTAT 2Product Manual | 9 Terminal Designations CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM Terminal Description RC Cooling power RH Heating power Configurable W3, H (humidifier control), DH (dehumidifier control), EX (vent, external air baffle, ERV/HRV ) Z2 Configurable W3, H (humidifier control), DH (dehumidifier control), EX (vent, external air baffle, ERV/HRV ) Heat stage 1 W2 Heat stage 2 Common wire from secondary sid of heating transformer (if 2 transformers) Cool stage 1 Y2 Cool stage 2 Fan Energized in Cool mode Energized in Heat mode Insert Batteries Into the Thermostat CAUTION: Special Battery Warning • Always replace the batteries as soon as you have low battery levels, indicated by a caution sign and “LOW BATTERY” flashing on the display. If the batteries drain, the thermostat could leave the HVAC system on or off, overheating or freezing the home. • Always replace the batteries when they are low to protect the thermostat from damage and corrosion by leaking batteries.

If a wall transformer is used to power the thermostat, connect between C and RH. Ensure the batteries are installed following the specified polarity markings on the thermostat. • If the home is unoccupied for a month or more, such as vacation homes, you should replace the batteries as a preventive measure against battery failure while you are away. • Always use new batteries as replacements. Verify that any excess wire is tucked back into the wall to allow room for the thermostat to sit flush against the back plate. Return the thermostat to the wall plate by pressing the thermostat body firmly into the back plate mounted to the wall. Ensure that the pins on the body are correctly aligned with the back plate. Failure to do so could cause damage to the thermostat. SMART THERMOSTAT 2 Product Manual | 11 10 | SMART THERMOSTAT 2 Product Manual THERMOSTAT SETUP Turn the Power On • Thermostat will automatically detect the connected wires. Fan on During Heating Z1/Z2 Terminal Function Restore power to all the heating and cooling systems. This can be done at the circuit breaker. • Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the thermostat configuration. Tells the thermostat whether the fan should be on during a heating cycle. These are the “dynamic” terminals. If an auxiliary wire has been connected, please specify the function it will perform. NOTE: If the thermostat screen does not show all the connected wires, remove the thermostat from the wall and verify that all wires are properly connected. If issues persist, there may be an HVAC problem. Please contact an HVAC service provider for assistance. Depending on the system type and configuration, the thermostat may request the following information during setup: • Forced Air Heating - Yes • W3 - Third stage of heat or aux • Radiant Floor Heating - No • H - Humidifier • Fossil/Electric Baseboard Heating - No • DH - Dehumidifier • Radiators - No • EX - Vent (external air baffle) • If Unsure - Not sure Backup Heat Type Tells the thermostat what type of auxiliary/backup heating the heat pump uses. • Electric - This is the most common type of backup heating. • Dual Fuel - Some heat pumps use a fossil furnace (for example, natural gas, oil, or propane) or backup heating. • If Unsure - The system will automatically detect which heat type is appropriate for your system.
