This installation sheet applies to SimplyVAV digital
wall sensors connected to SimplyVAV
controllers. For additional information on
the SimplyVAV products, browse to the
SimplyVAV web site for videos and other
resources.
Choosing a sensor location
Install the sensor on an inside wall where it can sense
the average room temperature. Avoid locations with
direct sunlight, heat sources, windows, air vents,
and air circulation obstructions such as curtains or
furniture.
For models with motion sensing, see the topic on the
following page, Planning for motion sensing.
Rough-in preparation
Complete rough-in wiring at each sensor location
prior to sensor installation. This includes the following
items.
◆ ◆
If required, install an appropriate backplate.
◆ ◆
Route an Ethernet connecting cable from the
sensor to the controller location.
◆ ◆
Maximum cable length is 75 feet (22.9 meters).
Plenum-rated preassembled cables are
recommended.
Turn clockwise to
remove from base.
Turn counterclockwise
until the screws engage
the case.
Mount the sensors
To install the sensor on a mounting base, do the
following:
1. Turn the Allen screws in the base of the sensor
clockwise until they clear the case. Swing the
sensor away from the mounting base to remove it.
2. Route the Ethernet cable through the mounting
base.
3. Fasten the mounting base directly to a 2 x 4 inch
outlet box or a backplate with the Allen screws
toward the floor.
4. Insert the Ethernet cable coming from the base
into the sensor.
5. Place the top of the sensor over the top of the
mounting base and swing it down over the Allen
screw brackets. Be careful not to pinch any wiring.
6. Turn the Allen screws counterclockwise until they
back out of the mounting base and engage the
case of the sensor.
