Indoor Air Quality functions Power and battery replacement Humidifier control This thermostat can be AC powered, battery powered, or both (to provide backup power for communication with the Control4 system). The thermostat uses four alkaline AA batteries. If humidification is installed it can be controlled in two modes, automatic or manual. The thermostat has a memory backup that saves the thermostat settings in case of a power interruption.
Indoor Air Quality functions In manual mode it is important to anticipate a drop in outdoor temperature and reduce the setting accordingly to avoid excessive condensation. Use the following table to determine the proper relative humidity setting.
Program schedule and holds Fresh Air Program schedule and holds If ventilation is installed, Fresh Air can operate in four different modes as defined on this page. Understanding program schedules Press screen. button to select Fresh Air and enter the Fresh Air Setting the schedule for the thermostat is done at the Control4 system.
Program schedule and holds Next Event hold Press or buttons to immediately adjust the temperature when the schedule is running. This will hold the temperature setting until the next scheduled event. A Next Event hold can also be initiated by pressing selecting Next Event. Timed hold Timed hold can be set at the Control4 System.

General description Box contents General description Box contents Supported systems This Control4® Thermostat enables intelligent HVAC and Indoor Air Quality control as part of a Control4 automated system. This thermostat uses the ZigBee® (802.15.4) wireless networking standard to communicate with the Control4 system.
Installation Installation Installation location recommendations If replacing an existing thermostat Thermostat should be mounted: • • • • • On an interior wall, in a frequently occupied space. Approximately 5' (about 1.5 meters) above the floor. At least 18" (about 0.5 meter) from an outside wall. Thermostat can be mounted to a vertical, single gang, electrical junction box. Do not mount thermostat: • • • • • 4 Behind doors, in corners, or other dead air spaces.
Installation Thermostat mounting 1 Remove the rear mounting plate from the thermostat. 2 Pull wires through the opening on the back of the thermostat. 3 Position and level the mounting plate of the thermostat on the wall, and mark the hole locations with a pencil. 4 Drill 1/4" (6.35 mm) holes and insert the supplied anchors (drywall only). 5 Place the mounting plate over the anchors, then insert and tighten the screws.
