Honeywell Home RCHT8610WF T5 Smart Thermostat Installation Guide
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the T5 Smart thermostat still work if Wi-Fi connection is lost?
Yes, the temperature can be adjusted directly at the thermostat. However, some features,
including geofencing, are managed only through the Honeywell Home app and will not function
while the connection is down. The thermostat will automatically reconnect to Wi-Fi once the
network is restored.
The T5 Smart thermostat is not finding the in home Wi-Fi network.
thermostat operates in the 2.4 GHz range. That may be why the thermostat does not see the
network but the smartphone, which operates in both the 2.4 and 5.0 GHz range, sees the network.
Most routers will broadcast two networks, one SSID on the 5.0 GHz radio and one SSID on the
2.4 GHz radio.
A change was made on the Honeywell Home app but it has not shown up on the T5 Smart
thermostat.
There may be a short delay after making temperature and setting changes in the Honeywell
Home app.
Can there be multiple users for geofencing?
Yes, there can be multiple users. Geofencing will trigger based on the last person to leave and the
first person to return. To properly use geofencing with multiple users:
•
•
Each user needs to create their own account.
Each user should use their login ID and password across his or her devices, including
smartphones and tablets.
•
No two users should share the same account.
How are multiple users set up with thermostat?
Access can be given to any or all thermostat locations through the Honeywell Home app. Start
by touching the three-line menu icon in the upper left-hand corner of the home screen. Select
Manage Users and touch Add User located at the bottom of the screen. Type in the email address
of the person to be invited. If they have a account set up, the location will be automatically added
to their account. If they don’t have an account, they will receive an email invitation prompting
them to download the Honeywell Home app and create their own account.
Note: All individuals with access to a thermostat share the same user privileges. Users added will
be able to change the thermostat’s settings, as well as add or delete other users.
Is there a way to extend the signal strength?
The range or distance of the Wi-Fi signal is determined by the router. Check the router’s manual
for additional information.

Frequently Asked Questions
There is an alert that says Wi-Fi Signal Lost. What does that mean?
The Wi-Fi signal to the thermostat has been lost. Wait for the thermostat to reconnect or select a
new network within the Honeywell Home app configuration menu. If the thermostat is unable to
reconnect, you will need to troubleshoot the router to determine the cause.
Why is the thermostat showing up as offline (strike-through Wi-Fi icon) on top of right corner
of thermostat display?
If the thermostat displays a strike-through Wi-Fi icon on its screen or shows up as offline on the
Honeywell Home app, it has lost connection to the network. Make sure the router is powered and
broadcasting. The home’s Wi-Fi network may need to be reset by power cycling the router. Consult
the router’s instruction manual for directions on power cycling. When the network has been
restored, the thermostat will automatically reconnect.
