1. Product Description
The Allure
™
EC-Smart-Vue series sensors are designed to interface
with any ECB or ECL-Series controller to provide precision local
temperature sensing, information display of system status, and a
variety of control functions that can be accessed by room occupants.
Through its user-friendly interface, occupants can view and adjust
environmental settings to their liking, for example, view the space
temperature, adjust the setpoint, and apply occupancy overrides with
the Allure EC-Smart-Vue room temperature sensor. In addition to this,
the Allure EC-Smart-Vue-H sensor can measure the room’s humidity
level, the Allure EC-Smart-Vue-M sensor has a motion activated
occupancy sensor, the Allure EC-Smart-Vue-C sensor has a CO
2
sensor to measure air-quality, the Allure EC-Smart-Vue-CM sensor
has both an occupancy and CO
2
sensor, the Allure EC-Smart-Vue-CH
sensor has both a humidity and CO
2
sensor, the Allure
EC-Smart-Vue-HM sensor has a humidity sensor with a built-in motion
detector, and the Allure EC-Smart-Vue-CHM sensor has a humidity
and CO
2
sensor with a built-in motion detector.
With the EC-gfxProgram programming tool, you can create your own
tailor-made display control features that make full use of all Allure
EC-Smart-Vue’s capabilities. For example, you can program the
display to give users feedback on their setpoint selection with the
ECO-Vue
™
icon that shows more leaves for a setting that not only
cares for the environment, but one that also reduces operating costs. A
five-character alphanumeric display is available for showing messages.
A password protected technician mode allows an installer to perform
commissioning and troubleshooting. When connected with the
ECB-VAV or ECL-VAV series, commissioning can start immediately
after installation, as the Allure EC-Smart-Vue sensor can be used as a
hand-held tool to select the appropriate controller application for the
type of HVAC equipment to be controlled, to perform air balancing of
the system without requiring an onsite controls engineer, and to
troubleshoot the system.
Mounting hardware with a separate sub-base is provided with the
device for installation on dry wall or on an electrical junction box.
Electrical connection is made through standard Category 5e (Cat 5e)
structured cabling.
This cable also brings power and BAS Local Area Network (LAN)
signals to the sensor. The LAN is made available at the externally-
accessible communications jack, when enabled. By connecting a
BACnet MS/TP portable router or a L
ONWORKS
®
Network Interface, it
is possible to access the LAN for installation and maintenance
purposes.
This document describes the hardware installation procedures for the
following device models: Allure EC-Smart-Vue, EC-Smart-Vue-H,
EC-Smart-Vue-C, EC-Smart-Vue-CH, EC-Smart-Vue-M,
EC-Smart-Vue-CM, EC-Smart-Vue-HM, and EC-Smart-Vue-CHM.
Unless otherwise indicated, the term Allure EC-Smart-Vue
is used in this document to represent all Allure
EC-Smart-Vue models.

2. Cleaning
Clean the Allure EC-Smart-Vue sensors by polishing with a soft dry
cloth.
3. General Installation Requirements
For proper installation and subsequent operation of the Allure
EC-Smart-Vue sensors, pay special attention to the following
recommendations:
• It is recommended that the sensor(s) be kept at room temperature
for at least 24 hours before installation to allow any condensation
that may have accumulated due to low temperature during
shipping/storage, to evaporate.
• Upon unpacking the product, inspect the contents of the carton for
shipping damages. Do not install damaged sensors.
• The device is designed to operate under environmental conditions
that are specified in its datasheet.
