For Use with Firmware Version 2.x 20800 Swenson Drive, Suite 175 Waukesha, WI 53186 Revision 2.3 (800) 380-9640 Page 3 www.telkonet.com The EcoSmart Energy Management System 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. 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, the EcoAir/EcoTouch will enter an energy saving mode, allowing the room to drift away from the desired set point. During this drift period, the thermostat will operate the HVAC unit less often, reducing energy costs. When the room becomes occupied again, the RecoveryTime™ technology built into each EcoAir/EcoTouch will return the room to the set point without occupant interaction. The EcoWave is available in several configurations to address specific requirements of multiple applications including hotel, classroom, office, university dormitory, military residence hall, retail, public area, convention center, and a wide variety of commercial and industrial spaces. The firmware of standalone EcoWave thermostats is identical to the firmware of networked versions. Standalone Thermostats can be networked by adding a network module to the base units at any time. Programming features used during installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting are available in the on-screen Maintenance Menu.

FCC ID: XV6SS6600 EcoWave Remote Thermostat/Controller Package The EcoWave Remote Thermostat/Controller Package is comprised of two hardware components: the wireless EcoAir/EcoTouch battery powered display unit and the EcoSource+ HVAC controller. The EcoSource+ is placed in the HVAC unit for physical control of the system. The EcoAir/EcoTouch display can be placed in the optimum location for both temperature measurement and ease of occupant use. There are no restrictions based on where existing thermostat wire has been run or if there are enough conductors. The EcoWave Package can be configured for many different HVAC scenarios. It can control multiple HVAC systems, each equipped with an EcoSource+, but all directed by a single EcoAir/EcoTouch display unit. This type of installation reduces the complexity of running multiple HVAC units in a single large space and eliminating the potential of opposing modes forcing equipment to compete against each other. The EcoSource+ can accept associations with up to 15 total EcoSmart and other compatible wireless devices, such as multiple occupancy sensors and door switches. Each compatible wireless device may be associated to more than one EcoSource+. The EcoWave adds functionality, increased usability, extra efficiency, and component cost savings to conference rooms or large room suites. Multiple

For Use with Firmware Version 2.x 20800 Swenson Drive, Suite 175 Waukesha, WI 53186 Revision 2.3 (800) 380-9640 Page 4 www.telkonet.com 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. With software-based relay control and fan speed configuration, programming setup is simple and fast. Wiring follows industry-standard conventions whenever possible. Telkonet can develop specific wiring diagrams, if a complete specification is provided for the HVAC unit(s) in use at the site. The pin allocations of the EcoSource+ are below. The wiring interface conforms to industry standards. 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. Arbitrarily changing command values without prior discussion with Telkonet Applications Engineering can result in suboptimal thermostat performance and a loss of energy savings. All of these can possibly impact the user interface. For this reason, such arbitrary changes do not represent a Recommended Best Practice, and any corrective actions taken by Telkonet (including consultation) are subject to Professional Services charges at prevailing rate.

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). Joining the network is optional but pairing the EcoSmart VRF Controller and the EcoTouch+/EcoAir is required. Battery Power If the EcoAir or EcoTouch+ is battery powered, no hard wired power connection to the EcoSmart VRF Controller is required. Indoor Unit Configuration The EcoSmart VRF Controller does not have capability to configure the indoor unit. Configuring the indoor unit must be done using a separate device. Temp Sensor Selection The indoor unit "Temperature sensor selection" value should be configured to "1: Wired remote control". This configures the indoor unit to use the temperature sensor in the EcoAir/EcoTouch+.

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.  Arbitrarily changing command values without prior discussion with Telkonet Applications Engineering can result in suboptimal thermostat performance and a loss of energy savings. All of these can possibly impact the user interface. For this reason, such arbitrary changes do not represent a Recommended Best Practice, and any corrective actions taken by Telkonet (including consultation) are subject to Professional Services charges at prevailing rates. Regular Maintenance Under normal conditions, a correctly deployed EcoSmart series will require no maintenance with the exception of replacing the EcoAir and EcoSense batteries. The estimated battery life in an EcoAir is 2 years; in EcoSense it is 4 years. Actual life will vary based on usage. Procedure: Visual Inspection 1. Verify that components have not been tampered with, destroyed or stolen. 2. Verify that the components are securely mounted on their respective surfaces. 3. If applicable, verify that the AC power is being supplied to the HVAC system. 4. If units are hard-wired, verify that the power/data wiring between the EcoSmart VRF Controller and the EcoAir are intact and connected. 5. Check for a Service icon on the EcoSmart VRF Controller display. This icon indicates loss of association with one or more sensors. 6. If the icon appears, first check the batteries. Replace batteries if necessary. 7. If batteries are not the cause of the Service icon, re-associate all sensors per instructions in the EcoSmart Firmware 2.x Device Association Guide. Procedure: Functional Inspection 1. Observe whether the HVAC system is operating (e.g. drive cycle) after entering the room.
Regular Maintenance EcoSmart VRF Controller I, O & M Guide Telkonet, Inc. For Use with Firmware Version 2.x 20800 Swenson Drive, Suite 175 Regular Maintenance Waukesha, WI 53186 Revision 2.3 (800) 380-9640 Page 15 www.telkonet.com 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. In almost all cases, the delay is less than 3 minutes.) 2. If a drive cycle does not initiate within 5 minutes of entry, force a drive cycle by temporarily setting the thermostat to some arbitrary high or low temperature (ensure the HVAC mode is set correctly). EcoSmart VRF Controller thermostats default to Occupied status if communication with the Sensor(s) is lost for any reason. This permits the units to continue allowing the occupant to control the room temperature. However, in this state energy savings will be lost. If in doubt whether the sensors are associated, re-associate all Sensors per the EcoSmart Firmware 2.x Device Association Guide.
Troubleshooting 7 EcoSmart VRF Controller I, O & M Guide Telkonet, Inc. For Use with Firmware Version 2.x 20800 Swenson Drive, Suite 175 Troubleshooting Waukesha, WI 53186 Revision 2.3 (800) 380-9640 Page 16 www.telkonet.com 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. For more troubleshooting tips, see EcoAir IOM Problem Potential Cause Potential Solution HVAC unit does not operate. Main electrical failure to the unit. Many units operate on 230 or 277VAC circuits, so although power is available to the 110VAC plugs in the room, the branch circuit supplying HVAC power may be interrupted. Dispatch maintenance. Verify mains continuity to the unit. GFI within the HVAC has tripped. Some models of HVAC systems (often PTAC/PTHP units) contain integral GFI (Ground-Fault Interrupt) systems. Occasionally, often after a power outage, inrush current when power returns can cause GFIs to trip. Most times, this does not indicate issues with the unit. Check and reset units’ GFI systems. EcoSmart VRF Controller has failed. Remove the cover’s 4 corner screws, and verify the J4 Molex connector is seated properly and facing the right direction (See Figure 5 and Table 1-Wiring). Replace the EcoSmart VRF Controller with a known-good unit as a comparison-check. If the replacement unit functions properly, contact Telkonet and begin the RMA process. If the replacement unit does not function properly, consult a local HVAC technician to inspect your HVAC unit. Door contact is not connected. Ensure that all door contacts are connected.
