Regular Maintenance
Procedure: Visual Inspection
Step 1 Verify that components have not been tampered with, destroyed or stolen.
Step 2 Verify that the components are securely mounted on their respective surfaces.
Sensors may be mounted on walls or ceilings; either location is permissible and will have been
determined during installation.
Step 3 If applicable, verify that the AC power is being supplied to the HVAC system.
Step 4 If units are hard-wired, verify that the power/data wiring between the EcoInsight and the
EcoView are intact and connected.
Step 5 Check for a Service icon on the EcoInsight display. This icon indicates loss of association
with one or more sensors.
Step 6 If the icon appears, first check the batteries. Replace batteries if necessary.
Step 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
Step 1 Observe whether the HVAC system is operating (e.g. drive cycle) after entering the room.
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 EcoInsight 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.)
Step 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).
EcoInsight 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.
