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. However, as the day progresses, the room will need
more HVAC heating or less HVAC cooling as it moves into the
shade. An EcoSmart thermostat will continually monitor the
room, learn its patterns, and adjust its heating and cooling
profiles accordingly.
EcoSmart thermostats also learn and adapt to occupant
schedules. When a room is unoccupied, an EcoSmart thermostat
will enter an energy saving mode, allowing the room to drift
away from the desired setpoint. During this drift period, the
thermostat will operate the HVAC unit less often, reducing
energy costs. When the room becomes occupied again, the
EcoSmart Recovery Time™ technology built into each thermostat
will return the room to the setpoint without the occupant
noticing

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. Aim it in the appropriate direction to
If you’re accustomed to installing our traditional
EcoSense, you’ll find we’ve made some installation
changes:

the EcoSense+ on the wall next to the bed, pointed down
near the pillows of the bed. "Details on page 6.
Before mounting, ensure backplate is rotated to the
correct position so that PIR is facing the appropriate
direction.
Once installation location is determined, backplate
can be rotated in any direction before mounting to
surface.
Adjust the PIR direction (between 40-90°).
PIR is stationary, therefore no need to adjust
direction.
Zone of Detection is elliptical and narrower (smooshed
cone).
Zone of detection is circular and wider.
Joining/Binding “tab” can be pressed with finger,
after cover is put on.
Must use paperclip to press the Joining/Binding
button.
Join network and bind to thermostat in one process.
Bind only, no need to join to network.
EcoSense+ joins the EcoSmart network, therefore it
takes up a slot on the coordinator and counts toward
the maximum devices per coordinator (65).
Does not count toward maximum devices per
coordinator.

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.
For wired installations, evaluate the wiring
between each sensor and the thermostat.
Ensure the EcoSense+ is aimed towards the bed.
Occupant reports HVAC
shuts down while they sleep.
Sensor is not accurately
detecting occupancy. This is
typically seen in
deployments where the bed
placement within the room
was changed after
installation.
Ensure the EcoSense+ is mounted within 12 feet
of the bed.
Ensure the EcoSense+ is mounted with a direct
line-of-sight to the bed. The line-of-sight should
not be obstructed by grills, registers, or spinning
fan blades.
For spacious rooms, consider adding an
additional EcoSense+ sensor.

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. It will eventually reconnect to the
(powered) EcoConnect, but be mindful of the
interval: the EcoSource+ will try to reconnect every
15 minutes for a total of 3 attempts, then every hour
(4 attempts), then every 4 hours (4 attempts) and
once every 24 hours thereafter.
*Network Re-Connection Pattern and Timing:
X 3 attempts
X 4 attempts
X 4 attempts
