Overview

RTS-2HS Model

The Temperature Sensor (RTS) uses wireless

technology to communicate accurate room

temperature from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F)

and relative humidity from 20% to 92%. The

sensor provides current and on-change values

for target controllers to manage the

environment of a space.

The RTS is available in two radio frequencies,

902 MHz and 868 MHz. The core model

(RTS-1T) monitors temperature. Additional

models are available that also monitor relative

humidity (RTS-1H), provide a temperature set

point (RTS-1TS), and include all RTS features

including fan speed control and an occupancy

signal (RTS-2HS).

The RTS is solar powered and can store energy

to maintain operation during periods of low

light—up to 200 hours in darkness. A CR2032

battery can be used for running tests or backup power assistance, if

required. Color LEDs are visible through the solar panel to indicate the

sensor's operation.

The RTS is well suited for occupancy-based hospitality applications that

require control to power a room or setback temperature control devices.

This document covers installation and tests that apply to all RTS models.

The product package includes the sensor and installation guide.

Echoflex Installation Guide

Temperature Sensor

Prepare for Installation

To ensure optimal function, consider the installation environment and the

following guidelines:

•

For indoor use only. Operating temperature -25°C to 65°C

(-13°F to 149°F), 5%–92% relative humidity (non-condensing).

•

High-density construction materials and large metal appliances or

fixtures in the space may disrupt wireless transmissions.

•

Install the sensor within range of linked receivers or controllers,

24m (80ft). Consider adding a repeater to extend reception range.

•

Before linking the sensor, expose it to a good light source for at least

five minutes at 200 lux (19fc).

•

Install the RTS with the solar cell facing a light fixture. Ideally, an

exposure of four hours of natural or artificial light a day.

Supplies required to install (not provided):

•

Two #6 screws, double-sided tape, or Velcro®

Installation

Use hand tools when installing. Over-torquing with a power tool can

damage the sensor. The sensor’s removable back plate can be mounted

on most surfaces.

Note: Consider linking the RTS while you have access and before

replacing the cover. See Link to a Controller on page5.

Three different mounting options are available:

Test

button

•

Flush-mounted to a firm surface with screws and

wall anchors (not provided).

•

Using double-sided tape or Velcro (not

provided).

•

Over a standard, Class 2 low-voltage electrical

box. Keyholes in the back plate mate with

standard screw patterns.

1. Insert a flatblade screwdriver into the slot on

the key tab to separate the back plate from

the sensor.

2. Mount the back plate with the plastic key on

the bottom.

3. Align the sensor over the back plate and press

the lower edge until it clicks in place.

4. Test for adequate light levels. See Light Level

Test on page6.

Note: The RTS can operate with low light

exposure, but for best results, it should be

mounted where it receives four hours of

natural or artificial light daily.

Temperature Sensor

Sensing Operation

The following features are available depending on the RTS model. The

receiving control equipment that the sensor is linked to uses its

configurable settings and interprets messages sent by the RTS.

Solar panel

Temperature dial

Test button

Fan control

Temperature and Humidity

Monitoring: When there is

sufficient power, 100 lux (9 fc),

the sensor records the

temperature, temperature set

point, and humidity values every

10 seconds. If the light source is

poor, the sampling interval

increases to every 100 seconds. If

a period of low light reaches 24

hours, the interval increases to

every 200 seconds.

Temperature Set Point: Create an

offset from the temperature set

point value that is set on the

receiving controller; rotate the

dial counterclockwise to lower and clockwise to increase. The receiving

control equipment interprets the set point value to an offset range. For

no offset, point the arrow on the dial straight up.

Fan Speed Control: (RTS-2HS model only) Adjust the fan speed by

selecting a setting: A (auto), O (off), 1 (low ), 2 (med), 3 (high) for the

receiving control equipment to interpret.

Test Button: (RTS-2HS model only) Activate an occupied room state by

pressing the [Test] button on the right side of the sensor. This feature

engages all of the automated settings configured for the occupied space,

such as lights and heating. The receiving control equipment determines

the settings and timers.

Transmission Rate

The RTS transmits a message when:

•

10 sample values have been recorded.

•

The fan speed switch or the [Test] button are used.

•

The difference from the last transmitted temperature value is greater

than 0.3°C (0.5°F).

•

The difference from the last transmitted humidity value is greater

than 3%.

Link to a Controller

The compatible target controller must be installed, powered, and within

range of the RTS.

Note: The linking process can be used both to link a device to a

controller and to unlink a linked device from a controller.

1. Press the tab on the bottom edge of the sensor body to remove the

back plate and access the [Teach] button.

2. Press the [Learn] button on the controller to activate Link mode. If

necessary, refer to the controller product documentation.

3. Press the [Teach] button on the sensor once to send a link message.

An LED blinks to confirm a successful transmission.

4. Deactivate Link mode on the controller before attempting to link to

any other controllers.

Battery Power

A battery is not required for normal operation if the sensor receives

adequate natural or artificial light. See the table in the Light Level Test on

the next page. A CR2032 battery (not provided) may be required to run

installation tests or when the artificial light is insufficient to power the

sensor.

To replace the battery:

1. Remove the sensor from the back plate by

pressing the key on the lower edge of the

sensor body.

2. Use a flatblade screwdriver to remove the

old battery from the holder.

3. Insert a new battery with the positive side

(+) facing up and press in place.

4. Replace the back plate and snap it in place.

Tests and Settings

Use the [Test] button and color LEDs to navigate the Tests and Settings

menu. The [Test] button is on the side of the sensor and the LEDs display

through the right side of the solar panel.

The menu times out after two minutes of inactivity.

Light Level Test

The Light Level Test quantifies the amount of energy produced by the

solar cells and confirms a good installation location.

1. Press and hold the [Test] button until the green LED is displayed.

Release the button to enter the menu and display the first item, the

blinking green LED.

2. Press and hold the [Test] button again until the green LED stops

blinking. The green LED then repeats a number of blinks according to

the detected light level. The sensor reevaluates the light level every

two seconds.

The time to fully charge the storage capacitor is from a non-operational

condition. Discharge time indicates how long a fully charged sensor

operates in the dark. The test repeats every two seconds and runs for 100

seconds. To exit before the time-out, press and hold the [Test] button.
