Installation Location
Getting Started
To avoid having to move your wiring to a new location,
mount the thermostat in place of the old thermostat.
• Install the thermostat on an inside wall of an often-used room, about
5 ft. (1.5m) above the floor.
• Do not install where there are unusual heating conditions, such as:
in direct sunlight; near a lamp, radio, television, radiator register,
fireplace; near hot water pipes in the wall; or near a stove on the
other side of a wall.
• Do not locate in unusual cooling conditions, such as: on a wall
separating an unheated room; or in a draft from a stairwell, door, or
window.
• Do not locate in a damp area. This can lead to corrosion that will
shorten the thermostat’s life.
• Do not locate where air circulation is poor, such as: a corner, an
alcove, or behind an open door.
• Do not install the thermostat until all construction and painting is
complete.
• This thermostat does not require leveling.

RH
Vivint Element CT200 Installation Guide
Prepare Wires
Wiring
Make sure your wires are labeled. If necessary, find the “other
end” connection for each wire on your heating or air conditioning
equipment and note the label there.
1.	Fan out wires so that they are aligned with their terminals.
2.	Do not bunch wires in front of the mounting plate. Feed any slack
back into the wall.
RH
If you have both RH
and RC connections,
you must set the RC/
RH Switch to OPEN. If you do
not have both connections,
set the switch to CLOSED.
! CAUTION
Do not allow wires to touch
each other or other parts on
the thermostat.
Follow these guidelines for safe and secure wire connections:
• Use at least 2.6 in. of wire for each of your connections to the
Thermostat.
• If you do not have enough wire, splice additional wire to allow
enough slack.
• Terminals accept wires from 16-22 awg.
• Remove 1/8 in. insulation from the tip of each wire.
• Take care not to damage the labels for each wire.

Connecting Your Wires
Vivint Element CT200 Installation Guide
Wiring
Reference the Detailed Wire Diagram on page 23 to identify your
wiring diagram and set-up information. If necessary, contact
customer support for help.
1.	 Connect a labeled wire only to a matching lettered terminal.
2.	 Press the lever next to the terminal letter, then insert the wire in
the terminal well.
3.	 Make sure to insert the wire into the terminal well as far as it will
go, then release the lever. The wire should be secure and not pull
free easily.
The Thermostat can be externally powered with a power
source rated from 12V to 24V, AC or DC, at 100ma or
greater. If used, connect to the C and RH terminals (no
polarity).
The 24VAC “C” wire is the other side of the 24VAC heating
transformer and can be found where the other thermostat
wires connect at the wall or at the furnace. Do not use the
common or ground side of the line voltage.
The Thermostat runs on 4 AA alkaline batteries, the C wire
(if available), or both batteries and the C-wire. If you do not
have a C wire, you can run a new wire from the HVAC or
use a standard 12-24V [AC or DC] wall transformer.
The C-wire is optional but preferred for all installations.

Vivint Element CT200 Installation Guide
Power Supply
Wiring
While the thermostat can run without batteries on C-wire power,
you should install batteries as well to provide power to the unit
during outages. See the Thermostat Battery Cautions.
1.	 Install four (4) AA alkaline batteries following the marked polarity
in the battery compartments. Insert the battery negative end first
against the spring, then push the positive end in.
2.	 With all the wires connected and the unit attached to the wall, it
is time to turn the AC power back on. Reconnect the power at the
breaker you used to switch it off. The Thermostat will power-up in
the OFF mode.
3.	 Your Thermostat is not yet configured to operate your HVAC
system. You must now connect your thermostat to a Z-Wave
Network and configure the HVAC and Heat Source settings.
Battery Installation
12
Vivint Element CT200 Installation Guide
Wiring
! THERMOSTAT BATTERY CAUTIONS
• Always use new Alkaline batteries.
• Do not use rechargeable batteries of any type. They will not operate the
thermostat properly and may lead to damage.
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Do not mix battery types, for example Lithium with Alkaline.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire. Batteries may explode or leak.
• Always replace the batteries as soon as the “Low Batt” warning flashes. The
thermostat is a battery-powered device; you should replace the batteries
before they run out, as failure to replace batteries can result in excessive
heating or cooling of your house.
• Always replace the batteries once a year, even if the “Low Batt” indicator
does not flash. Replacing the batteries also helps to prevent leakage that
can corrode and damage the thermostat.
• If you are leaving your home for a month or more, you should replace the
batteries as a precaution against battery failure in your absence.
• Failing to replace the batteries when necessary could cause the thermo-
stat to lose power or malfunction. If the thermostat loses power, then the
thermostat will not control the temperature, which could result in your HVAC
system not functioning as you intended and lead to possible damage from
excessive heating or cooling.
• If the thermostat batteries fail with the heat OFF, this can result in NO HEAT
and possible frozen or broken pipes and water damage.
• If the thermostat batteries fail with the cool OFF, this can result in NO COOL
and could cause possible damage or excessive temperatures.

Vivint Element CT200 Installation Guide
Setup
You must connect the Thermostat to a Z-Wave network.
This unit cannot operate without a network connection.
Connecting the Thermostat to a Z-Wave® Network
The Vivint Element Thermostat is a Z-Wave® compliant thermostat.
It has an onboard radio that can be connected to an existing
Z-Wave® network. This device can be used on a network with
products from different vendors.
1. Set your primary controller to INCLUDE mode to add the
thermostat as a node on your network (see your specific
controller’s User Manual for detailed instructions).
2. The Thermostat main screen
shows a welcome message. Press
the SIDE button to continue.
3. When your primary controller
is ready to connect to the
Thermostat, press the SIDE
button to connect. This initiates
the network connection process.
The Thermostat’s screen says
“Connecting.”

Manual for details).
15
Vivint Element CT200 Installation Guide
Z-Wave and Power Supply
Setup
The thermostat’s node type is fixed when it connects to
the Z-Wave network; if the C-Wire is not connected and is
only battery-powered when connecting to the network, the
thermostat will remain a frequent listening routing slave
(FLiRS) node until it is removed from the network.
When your thermostat is running on battery power, the Z-Wave
radio will turn off to help conserve battery life. The Thermostat
Z-Wave radio module supports Z-Wave beaming, which allows other
devices in the network to wake up the Z-Wave module and accept
commands and then go back to sleep.
When your thermostat is running on C-Wire power, the Z-Wave radio
will stay on and actively help route messages within the Z-Wave
network. The thermostat’s node type is fixed when it connects to
the Z-Wave network; if the C-Wire is present and powered when
connecting to the network, the thermostat will remain an alwayslistening node until it is removed from the network.
Z-Wave and Thermostat Programs
You must connect the Thermostat to a Z-Wave network. This unit
cannot operate without a network connection. When you are
paired to a Z-Wave system, the Z-Wave application on your device
controls your thermostat’s programs. You can still temporarily
override settings on the thermostat itself, but otherwise you control
it remotely.
