Honeywell THM5421R1021 Equipment Interface Module Installation Guide

Honeywell THM5421R1021 Equipment Interface Module Installation Guide

Equipment Interface Module works with:

• Prestige IAQ
• VisionPRO 8000 with RedLINK®
• Wireless FocusPRO with RedLINK (not pictured below)
  

1 Install thermostat

Prestige/VisionPRO with RedLINK: Mount the thermostat and wire to C and R terminals of the Equipment Interface Module (EIM), or to a separate 24 volt transformer (not provided).
NOTE: When the VisionPRO with RedLINK thermostat is used with the EIM, the relays in the thermostat do not function.
SETUPNOTE : RedLINK FocusPRO are battery powered and do not have R and C terminals..

2 Install equipment interface module

Use screws & anchors as appropriate for the mounting surface. Mount the EIM near the HVAC equipment, or on the equipment itself.

M34048ANOTE: If you install more than one thermostat and EIM, the EIMs must be at least 2 feet apart.
NOTE: If you are installing discharge and return air sensors, refer to the mounting instructions in the Alerts and Delta T Diagnostics Installation Instructions packed with the Prestige IAQ kit.NOTE: RedLINK FocusPRO should use a return sensor to S1 only. Do not wire a supply sensor.
If an EIM is mounted inside a metal cabinet, it is recommended to use a THM4000R1000 Wireless Adapter for extended wireless range. Mount the Wireless Adapter outside the metal cabinet and connect to the ABCD terminals at the EIM.

3 Power optional RedLINK accessories

3.1 Install batteries in RedLINK accessories.

• Portable Comfort Control
• Wireless Outdoor Sensor

3.2 Connect gateway to internet and connect to power.

3.2a Connect RedLINK Internet Gateway to router or modem with Ethernet cable (RJ45).
3.2b Connect gateway’s power cord to an electrical outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch.

4 Performing initial setup

Initial setup options define the type of system you are installing: *

• Residential or commercial (Prestige & RedLINK VisionPRO only)
• Non-zoned or zoned

4.1Follow prompts on the screen to select appropriate options.

4.2 Link the thermostat to the equipment interface module.

4.2a Press and quickly release the CONNECT button on the EIM. Make sure the “Connected” light is flashing green.

• RedLINK FocusPRO shows numbers on the display during setup. Follow install guide included with that thermostat.

NOTE: If the “Connected” light does NOT flash green, another system may be in the listening mode. Please exit the listening mode at the other system and then try again.

• Green Flashing: In Listening Mode – system is ready to add RedLINK devices.
• Green Steady: RedLINK devices are communicating.
• Red: RedLINK device(s) are NOT communicating. Check EIM and RedLINK devices.

4.2bWhile the “Connected” light is flashing green on the EIM, press NEXT on the thermostat. After a short delay, the screen will show the thermostat is connected.

**4.3When you see the prompt Do you have RedLINK accessories to connect? Touch YES or NO. ***

• If you select YES, you will be prompted to Press Connect on all new accessories. Continue to Step 4.4.
• If you select NO, continue to Step 4.5.
  

4.4Connect each RedLINK accessory.NOTE: Make sure accessories are at

least 2 feet away from the EIM during the linking process.

4.4aWhile the Add Device screen is displayed (listening mode), press and quickly release the CONNECT button on each new RedLINK accessory.NOTE: The Prestige or RedLINK VisionPRO display will instruct you to press connect on the accessory while in listening mode.

• RedLINK FocusPRO display will say “wireless setup” in display when it is ready to connect to the EIM and accessories during the initial setup.
  4.4bAfter a short delay (up to 20 seconds), check the thermostat to confirm the connection of each RedLINK accessory.
  4.4c Touch DONE at the thermostat after all new RedLINK accessories are connected.NOTE: The thermostat stays in listening mode for 15 minutes from when it was connected to the EIM or RedLINK Zone Panel. The timer is reset every time a new accessory was added. When done adding RedLINK accessories press DONE on the thermostat display
  

4.5 Finish the initial setup.

Finish the setup by selecting the desired options. Touch DONE after you select the last option you want to change.
For RedLINK FocusPRO, these settings are in numbers rather than text, so you will need to use the Installation instructions included with the thermostat.

The thermostat now displays its Home screen and the thermostat setup is complete.

EIM wiring guide — conventional systems

Typical wiring of a conventional system with up to 3-stage heat and 2-stage cool with one transformer. (RedLINK FocusPRO up to two-stage heat and two- stage cool.)

1. See guides on following pages for thermostat wiring and geothermal radiant heat wiring.
2. Wire a maximum of 4 sensors using the S1-S4 terminals. S1-S4 terminals can be connected to an indoor sensor, outdoor sensor, discharge sensor, return sensor, dry contact device to display an alert or an occupancy sensor for remote setback. RedLINK FocusPRO should only use the return sensor to any of the four sets of S terminals.
3. Remove jumper(s) if using separate transformers.
4. See Economizer wiring section.
5. Connect wireless adapter to ABCD for extended wireless range.

NOTE: See following pages for additional thermostat wiring guidelines for heat pumps, geothermal systems and optional Economizer.

EIM wiring guide — heat pump systems

Typical wiring of a heat pump system with up to four-stage heat and two-stage cool with one transformer. (RedLINK FocusPRO up to three-stage heat and two- stage cool.)

1. See guides on following pages for thermostat wiring and geothermal radiant heat wiring.
2. Wire a maximum of 4 sensors using the S1-S4 terminals. S1-S4 terminals can be connected to an indoor sensor, outdoor sensor, discharge sensor, return sensor, dry contact device to display an alert or an occupancy sensor for remote setback. RedLINK FocusPRO should only use the return sensor to any of the four sets of S terminals.
3. L/A terminal sends continuous output when thermostat is set to EM HEAT mode, except when set up for Economizer or TOD. See Economizer wiring section. (Only Prestige and RedLINK
4. VisionPRO can be set for Economizer or TOD.)
5. Connect wireless adapter to ABCD for extended wireless range.

EIM wiring guide — geothermal radiant heat

(Prestige and RedLINK VisionPRO models only.)
Typical wiring for geothermal radiant heat, geothermal forced-air, and backup heat with one transformer.

1. U1, U2 or U3 terminals must be used for geothermal radiant heat. Thermostat allows 2 stages of radiant heat—geothermal (stage 1) and boiler (stage 2).
2. “U” terminals are normally open dry contacts when set up for geothermal radiant heat. You must install a field jumper if radiant heat is powered by system transformer. Do NOT install a field jumper if radiant heat has its own transformer.
3. L/A terminal sends continuous output when thermostat is set to EM HEAT mode except when set up for Economizer or TOD. See Economizer wiring section.
4. Wire a maximum of 4 sensors using the S1-S4 terminals. S1-S4 terminals can be connected to an indoor sensor, outdoor sensor, discharge sensor, return sensor, dry contact device to display an alert or an occupancy sensor for remote setback.
5. Connect wireless adapter to ABCD for extended wireless range.

Using universal relays to control heating or cooling
(Prestige and RedLINK VisionPRO models only.)

1. U1/U2/U3 terminals are normally open dry contacts when set up for a stage of heating or cooling.
2. You must install a field jumper if the stage of heating or cooling is powered by system transformer. Do NOT install a field jumper if the stage of heating has its own transformer.

Dry contact alerts

(Prestige and RedLINK VisionPRO models only.)
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD. Do not apply power to S1–S4 terminals. Do not connect a temperature sensor to the S1–S4 terminals if set for a dry contact device.NOTE: The dry contact device must be rated for low voltage.
