Once the wiring has been completed, the HVAC can be powered up and the Director can be configured
using the menu system on the device.
Device Configuration
Once the HVAC unit has been powered up, the Director module should indicate it is operating properly
by lighting up the Power LED and periodically flashing the Running LED. In addition, the main display
should also be showing system status information.
To configure the device, enter the main menu by pushing the “MENU” button. Scroll down to the
“Installer Settings” menu. Once in the Install Settings menu, scroll up and down to the appropriate
selection to, then press the “Change” button to cycle through the options until all fields are setup to
match the HVAC system’s capabilities.
Exit the menu by pressing the “Main Menu” button to complete the changes to the Installation Settings
System Linking
If not already in the main system menu, select the MENU option. Using the up and down buttons, scroll
to the “Link Settings” option, and press the “Select” button. Scroll to the “Enable Linking” item and
press the “Select” button. The unit will now be in Linking mode for 60 seconds. During this time, the
Linking LED will be flashing on the front panel of the unit, and the display will show status about the
Linking process.
Once Linking has been enabled, Linking can also be enabled on another compatible device from Smart
Forced Air. Any device except for a register can be linked into the system from the Director; the Register
will need to be linked into the system starting with a Thermostat that has already been linked into the
system. The reason for this is that each Register must be associated with a specific Thermostat.
Once Linking to another device has successfully completed, the Linking LED will cease to flash, and the
unit will display the status. If the unit fails to Link in the allotted time, the LED will cease to flash, the
unit will exit Linking mode, and the unit will display the status.

To view the device’s regulatory info, press the “Menu” button from the home screen. Using the up and
down buttons, scroll down to the “Regulatory Info” line, and press “Select.” This screen indicates the
