Installation
Bluetooth Key
Plug the Bluetooth key into the appliance (Figure 5.1). See your appliance manual for location.
Power Source
Plug the appliance into its power source (Figure 6.1). This will cause the combustion blower to turn on for approximately 45 seconds and run a calibration. Install battery (Figure 6.2).
Bluetooth Connection
The user interface should automatically connect to your appliance. If this does not happen within 5 minutes, reference pairing instructions on.
User Interface Location & Mounting
NOTE: Do not use if not properly mounted to a wall.
To ensure you have a reliable Bluetooth connection locate the user interface:
- At a maximum distance of 30 foot from appliance
- On an interior wall
- 5 feet from the floor
- Not behind doors, bookcases or other objects
- Away from drafts and direct heat from the appliance
NOTICE: Verify stable connection before mounting the user interface. While we state a maximum range of 30 feet, we recommend pairing the user interface to the appliance and accessing the diagnostics menu to view the Bluetooth signal strength prior to selection of final mounting location for the user interface.While viewing the signal strength on the diagnostics menu, move the user interface to the desired location and look at the signal strength.
- Ideally, the user interface should be located where the signal strength shows in the range of -55db to -78db.
- Occasionally, the signal strength may decrease to as low as – 79db, which is considered normal.
- However, a steady wireless signal strength of -79db may still connect and function but may affect the reliability of the Bluetooth connection.
Mount base plate using screws and anchors provided using the level as a guide as shown in Figure 9.1 on page 9. It is recommended to mount at least one screw into a stud. If necessary drill 3/16 holes for drywall or drill 7/32 for plaster.
