Wiring Considerations  
Ordinary thermostat wire is recommended. Use 18 AWG or larger for normal wiring applications. Wire should be  
free from defects such as wear, cracks or anything that would hinder the conductivity of the wire within  
the circuit.  
Note: Wiring only requires four wires. However, it is good practice to run thermostat cable having more than four wires in the event of a  
damaged or broken wire during installation.  
The units should be wired in a “daisy chain” and not in a “star” configuration. To daisy chain” the units on  
the network, each unit should have a set of wires coming into it and one set going out of it except the two  
communicating devices that are at the ends of the network. The devices on the ends should have only one set of  
wires to it. The order of the devices in the network is not specified except the EcoNet Smart Thermostat should  
be at one end of the network.  
The EcoNet Smart Thermostat has a six-terminal connector labeled R, C, E1, E2, S1 and S2.

Example of Smart Thermostat connection with HVAC and Water Heater unit. Please note this is an example only,  
and the ordering network can change as long as it is daisy chained.  
Electrical Specifications  
• Input Voltage ………… 22 VAC to 26 VAC (24 VAC typical)  
• AC Line Frequency … 50/60 Hz  
• WiFi……………………802.11 b/g/n 2.4 GHz  
(OPTIONAL) Shielded Wire  
If the thermostat wiring will be located near or in parallel with high voltage wiring, cable TV, Ethernet wiring  
or radio-frequency equipment, then shielded thermostat wire can be used to reduce or eliminate potential  
interference. The shield wire should be connected to the C terminal, or ground, at the indoor unit only. The  
shield wire from all of the thermostat runs should be attached together and only grounded at the indoor unit.  
The shield wire should NOT be connected to any terminal at the smart thermostat. Connecting the shield to  
ground at more than one location can cause current loops in the shield, reducing shield effectiveness.
