Z-Wave INSTALLATION
Aspire RF’s controllers (RFHDCSG and RFTDCSG) support the Helios Z-wave Thermostat General Version 2 Device class. The following
procedure will allow the thermostat to be added to a Z-Wave network.
1. Set your primary controller to Install mode to add the thermostat as a node on your network (Refer to the Aspire RF User Guide for more
detailed instructions).
2. In the Thermostat’s Main Menu, scroll down to the Z-Wave Install item. Select the item.
3. Press the YES button in the Z-Wave Install screen.
4. The controller will indicate that the thermostat was successfully added to the RF network.
5. For deleting the thermostat from an existing network set the Primary Controller to Uninstall mode.
6. In the Thermostat’s main menu, scroll down to the Z-Wave Install item. Select this item. Press the YES button in the Z-Wave Install screen.
NOTE: Before adding the RFTSTAT01 to a Z-Wave Network, check that it does not already belong to one by viewing the Home and Zone
ID’s located in the Thermostat Info screen. An un-configured thermostat should show zeros for both the Home and Zone IDs. O
Z-Wave APPLICATIONS
After the RFTSTAT01 has been installed in the Z-Wave network, you now have the ability to:
• Control the thermostat temperature from the Aspire RF controller
• Control the HVAC mode from the Aspire RF controller
• Add a specific thermostat setting or mode to a customized scene. This scene can be activated from a Aspire RF controller.
NOTE: thermostat control is not included in scenes that are loaded into the Wallmount Scene Controller (RFWDC)
• Ability to easily set thermostat schedules with the Aspire RF controller.
NOTE – By using Aspire RF’s HS2-Pro software (RFBER and RFUSB-PRO), you can have the ability to remotely control your thermostat setting
through an Internet connection.
