Installation
Overview
Installing the thermostat is a relativel simple process and t picall takes from 10 to 30
minutes to complete. You should consider the current outdoor temperature. If unexpected
problems occur, ou do not want to risk freezing or overheating while ou are sorting out the
problem.
You will need screwdrivers, a wire stripper/cutter, and a drill for installing the wall anchors to
complete the installation. A volt/ohm meter can be helpful for troubleshooting but is not
required.
Most conventional thermostats, probabl including the one ou are replacing, use a single
wall mounted enclosure. The BAYweb thermostat uses two modules: the Thermostat Ke pad
and the Control Module. This design eliminates the use of batteries and potential need to pull
new wire out to the wall, and results in a more compact and elegant design.
The Thermostat Ke pad is mounted on wall in place of
our existing thermostat.
If our existing thermostat is larger than the new one,
ou can easil pull off the ke pad later to touch up the
paint after ou have completed the installation.
The control module mounts near or on our
furnace and/or air conditioner, and is spliced
into our existing thermostat wire.
The module can be powered directl from the
furnace or from an outlet ideall on the same
circuit as our furnace.
You will need an Internet connection for the
Control Module.
If it is not convenient to plug into our network
there, consider using an optional power-line
Ethernet adapter.
4

Your existing installation is should be
similar to this depiction.
You have a single thermostat cable
going between our wall mounted
thermostat and the furnace.
The cable contains from 2 to 5 wires of
different colors.
Your BAYweb Thermostat installation is shown below. The Control Module is mounted near
the furnace or air conditioner and is wired into the existing thermostat cable. The control
module is powered from a standard outlet.
The specific installation steps to replace our existing thermostat with the new BAYweb
Thermostat are shown in the remainder of the installation instructions. If ou are installing the
thermostat with new equipment, the process will be similar except for removal of the old
equipment.
CAUTION: Be sure to review all of the installation steps before starting our
installation.

1Identify Wiring
The objective of this step is to identif how our thermostat wiring is connected to our
furnace, air conditioner, or heat pump. This will also determine what t pe of control
scheme our s stem uses.
A) Turn off all power to our furnace, air conditioner, or heat pump.
CAUTION: Verif that all power has been turned off. Failure to turn power
off ma result in personal injur , electric shock, and equipment damage.
B) Go to our existing thermostat and remove the cover or remove it from the wall as
needed so ou can see the terminals where the wiring is attached.
C) Note what connections our s stem uses and verif that our thermostat is using the
correct terminals with the correct wire color as shown in the table below.
If our installation is using non standard wire colors, ou will have to note what color is
being used for what terminal and match our wire colors to the appropriate terminal.
Terminal unction Standard

D) If ou do not have a wire attached to terminal “C” or “X”, ou will need to use the
included power suppl to power the thermostat. The power suppl plugs into a
standard 120VAC outlet and to a connector on the control module.
E) The following table shows what terminals are used b the different control methods.
Determine which control method our s stem is using b matching which terminals are
connected to our wiring.
Circle the number of the s stem t pe that ou have. You will use this information when
configuring our thermostat in Step 5.
If ou have a wire connected to terminal “E”, ou have a heat pump with an emergenc
heat function. If ou do not also have a wire connected to terminal “W” ou will need to
connect the wire connected to “E” to terminal “W”.

If ou have an question on what s stem t pe ou have, contact support
(support@ba web.com) or contact our local HVAC service compan .
* NOTE: The BAYweb Thermostat requires at least 4 wires in the thermostat cable
between the Thermostat ke pad and the Control Module. If ou have a heat or cool
onl s stem that onl has 2 wires, ou will need to install new thermostat wire. It is less
desirable, but often possible to obtain satisfactor operation using 3 wires. Consult the
Frequentl Asked Questions section at www.ba web.com for more information.
** NOTE: Some heat pump installations ma use a white wire on W2 instead of W1 for
auxiliar heat. If ou have a white wire attached to terminal W2 of our thermostat it
should be connect to the W1 terminal of the BAYweb Thermostat.

2Install ontrol Module
A) Find our thermostat cable where it goes into the furnace, air conditioner, or heat
pump. This is the same cable identified in Step 1 and should be the same color and
thickness as that cable.
CAUTION: There ma be other cables of similar color connecting other
devices such as a humidifier. Be sure to use the cable that runs back to our
thermostat and not one that is connected to another device. Connecting the
Web Thermostat to the wrong cable can result in electric shock and/or
equipment damage.
B) Mount the Control Module using the following criteria:
◦Select a location near the furnace where there is sufficient room to mount the
Control Module along where the thermostat cable runs. The thermostat cable will
need to reach both the “Thermostat” and “Furnace/AC” terminals of the Control
Module.
◦If ou will be using the included power suppl (see Step 1D), select a location within
4 feet of a power outlet, ideall on the same circuit as the furnace/AC.
◦Select a location where ou can connect to the Internet. If wiring is not convenient,
we suggest using a power line Ethernet adapter that will allow ou to make this
connection using our existing power wiring.
C) Prepare the thermostat cable:
With the furnace, air conditioner, or heat pump power OFF, cut the thermostat wire at a
point where both ends will be able to reach the Control Module mounting location.
Using a wire-stripping tool, strip approximatel 2 inches of the outer jacket off both
ends of the thermostat cable, then strip approximatel ¼ inch off the end of each of the
thermostat wires.
D) Connect the wiring going to the Thermostat Ke pad:
Attach the wires in the cable coming from the thermostat to the terminals on the LE T
side of the control module into the connector labeled "Thermostat". Be sure to match
the wire color and terminal designation as identified in Step 1. If ou have more wires
than the four wires labeled on the connector (Red, White, Green, Yellow), bend them
back out of the wa and tape to the cable. The will not be used.
Note that ou need four wires between the Control Module and Thermostat Ke pad
even if ou have a heat or cool onl s stem.
8
!

E) Connect the wiring going to the furnace, air conditioner, or heat pump:
Attach the wires in the cable coming from the furnace to the terminals on the RIGHT
side of the control module labeled " urnace/AC". Be sure to match the wire color and
terminal designation as identified in Step 1.
NOTE: If our s stem uses separate Rh and Rc wires, be sure to remove the jumper
wire between the Rh and Rc terminals. If our s stem uses a single Red wire, make
sure the jumper wire between terminals Rh and Rc is installed.
CAUTION: It is ver important to connect the thermostat cable to the correct
connectors on the Control Module. If you connect the control module
“Thermostat” connector to your furnace or air conditioner wiring, the
control module will be damaged.
F) Confirm that the terminal screws are tight, the wires will not pull out of the terminals,
and that there are not an shorts between terminals.

3Install Thermostat Keypad
A) Remove the wires from our existing thermostat, taking care that the wires do not fall
back into the wall.
B) Remove the existing thermostat and an associated mounting hardware.
C) Fill in an holes from the previous thermostat mounting and paint the wall if needed.
D) Hold the Thermostat Ke pad in the desired position and mark the location of the
mounting screws. Drill 3/16 inch holes and install the supplied wall anchors. Note that if
our thermostat was installed using an electrical box, the ke pad will mount directl to
a standard electrical box using the supplied screws.
E) Make sure the ends of each wire are stripped and read to be attached to the new
Thermostat Ke pad. If an wires break off then use our wire stripper to strip
approximatel ¼ inch of insulation from the end of the wire.
F) Using the supplied wire nuts, attach the four colored wires coming from the Thermostat
Ke pad (red, white, green, ellow) to the four matching colored wires from the cable in
the wall. If our installation uses non standard wire colors, use the table ou completed
in step 1C to connect our wire colors to the standard color of the Thermostat Ke pad.
G) If ou have an spare wires not being used, cut off an bare sections and ensure that
the will not short to an thing in the Thermostat Ke pad.
H) Push the thermostat cable into the wall to remove as much slack as possible. Fit an
excess wiring into the space behind the Thermostat Ke pad.
I) Attach the Thermostat Ke pad to the wall using the supplied screws.

4onnect to the Internet
The BAYweb Thermostat is factor configured for s stem t pe 3, conventional one
heat/one cool. This will also work for s stem t pes 1 and 2. If ou have a multistage
furnace, air conditioner, or heat pump, ou will need to connect the thermostat to the
Internet and configure it for the t pe of s stem that ou have prior to use.
A) Connect the Control Module to the Internet. Plug one end of an Ethernet cable into the
LAN port on the bottom of the Control Module and the other end into a port on a router
or switch on our local network.
B) If direct wiring is not convenient, use Power Line Ethernet adapters. Plug one adapter
into a power plug near the control module and the other adapter near our router. Then
just plug the Ethernet cables into the adapters and the ports.
C) The BAYweb Thermostat does not require an configuration or programming of our
networking equipment. You do not need to change securit settings. Just plug it in and
ou are all set to go.
D) Plug in the control module. Do not power up our furnace, air conditioner, or heat pump
et. The Power LED on the control module should illuminate.
E) In less than a minute the “Uplink” light should illuminate on the control module. If ou
do not see “Uplink” light up within a couple of minutes, refer to the Troubleshooting
section of this manual.

Using Your Mobile Phone
Once ou have setup our account on the web site, ou can also use most an mobile phone
that has web access to remotel access our thermostat and other web devices. To access
the mobile web site, enter the following address in our mobile phone browser:
www.ba web.com/mobile.
Occupancy Sensing
The BAYweb Thermostat can use various t pes of sensors (motion sensors being the most
common) which allow the thermostat to “know” when ou are home (Occupied) or when ou
are awa (Not Occupied).
Occupanc sensors enable the Web Thermostat to operate as one of the most efficient
thermostat available toda . Using occupanc sensors will save ou the most amount of
mone and simplif setting up our thermostat.
Using Occupanc Sensing allows ou to onl pa for heating or air conditioning to our
comfort level when ou are there. Imagine running out to go shopping on a weekend and
being gone from our house for sa 5 hours. Do ou alwa s turn our thermostat down when
ou go shopping? Now our BAYweb Thermostat can do it for ou.
Use of Occupanc Sensing simplifies setting up our thermostat’s schedule because all ou
need to do is determine when ou generall are asleep and when ou generall wake up (if
ou want our house heated before ou wake). The remainder of the time ou can tell the
thermostat to sense if ou are there or not.
While “Sensing”, the thermostat will automaticall set back the temperature to our “Away”
set point after a period of time of not sensing occupanc . Likewise, upon sensing occupanc ,
it will switch to our “Home” set point.
Scheduling a “Sleep” activit disables Occupanc Sensing to prevent switching to the Home
set point if ou get up in the middle of the night and happen to pass a sensor.
Implementing Occupancy Sensing
To enable and use occupanc sensing ou need to install one or more occupanc sensors
and configure the thermostat to use them on the web site.
The thermostat can use wireless (X10 wireless protocol) or wired occupanc sensors. Ba
sells a low cost wireless occupanc sensor that is read to use with the BAYweb Thermostat.
Just put in a couple of batteries and mount it in a location that t picall sees activit when ou
are home. You can use as man sensors as needed enabling the thermostat to monitor
multiple locations in our home for occupanc .
Wired occupanc sensors can use either normall open or closed contacts. Motion sensors
from most alarm s stems are compatible with the BAYweb thermostat.
15

Occupanc sensing with pets in the home is accomplished b masking off the lower part of
the sensing lens.
You should locate our sensors in high-traffic areas of our house so that the will be most
likel to sense when people are present. The sensors from Ba have a 10+ foot range and will
sense people as the pass in front of the sensor. We have found that locating them at about
chest height or higher works well.
Once ou have installed our occupanc sensors login to the web site to enable them. To
enable occupanc sensing select the “Schedule” page from the thermostat menu and set the
“Occupanc Inactivit Time”. We suggest using 1 hour for this interval initiall . You can adjust
this value later if needed to suit our lifest le.
If ou are using sensors not supplied b Ba , ou ma need to configure the thermostat to
look for other wireless IDs or to monitor the wired input. This is done on the “Settings” page.
After enabling occupanc sensing review our schedule and set our “Sensing”, “Sleep” , and
“Home” times as described above. Your thermostat will now automaticall adapt our HVAC
operation to match our lifest le.
Testing Occupancy Sensing
If ou want to see if the sensors are working as expected, login to the web site and select
“Sensor Log” from the thermostat menu.
The thermostat “Operation Log” will give a detailed view of occupanc sensing operation.
Occupancy Sensing with Multiple Thermostats
If ou are using multiple BAYweb thermostats in the same building, and wish to have each
thermostat sense occupanc (using wireless sensors) in separate areas, ou will need to
configure the occupanc sensors with different X10 device IDs.
The default X10 ID of Ba supplied sensors is “A1”. Note that these sensors also use an ID
that is one more than what is configured (default “A2”) for other purposes, do not use the next
ID for occupanc sensing. For example, acceptable IDs would be A1, A3, A5...
Refer to the instructions provided with the sensor for detail on how to change the sensor's
X10 ID. Configure the thermostat to look for the alternate X10 IDs on the “Settings” page.
16

Alerting
Alerting is a powerful feature that enables ou, and others ou designate, to be notified of the
following events:
•Problems with our thermostat and HVAC s stem.
•Excessive heating or cooling energ usage.
•Intrusion.
•Loss of Internet connectivit .
•Other problems or alerts with an thing else ou choose to connect to the control
module (wired or wireless).
Alerting provides man of the features of a traditional alarm s stem without the monthl fee. If
ou have an alarm s stem that is no longer in use, ou can wire those sensors into the control
module to convert our old s stem to a self-monitored s stem.
When the BAYweb Thermostat senses an alert condition it immediatel sends a message to
the BAYweb servers, which in turn emails the alert message to the list of recipients ou ma
specif . T picall ou will enter an email address that will deliver the alert message to our
mobile phone via text messaging (SMS).
The time it takes for ou to receive an alert varies mostl due to the variable deliver time of
text messaging. The BAYweb alert server will normall dispatch the alert email within 10
seconds of the event.
Implementing Alerting
There is a wide variet of additional sensors and devices that can be integrated into the
alerting s stem. Refer to the device instructions for detail on integrating those devices.
To enable alerting, login to the web site, bring up the “Settings” page, and set the “Alert email”
to the addresses ou want the notification to go to. Set “Alert Interval” to something other than
“Disabled”.
Depending on an other sensors or devices ou have connected to the control module, ou
ma need to configure the thermostat to look for other X10 wireless IDs and wired inputs. This
is also done from the “Settings” page.
Testing Alerting
To verif that alerting is operating as expected, login to the web site and review the thermostat
“Operation Log”, “Alert Log”, and “Sensor Log”.
