Select a location
Choose a location near power and
away from direct sunlight, if possible.
Make sure to leave room for the
controller door to open completely.
This location should also have a good
Wi-Fi signal. You can check this using
a smart phone. (Find a location that
has a minimum of two bars)
Note: If replacing a controller, it is
helpful to take a photo of the wires
before you remove them from the
old controller.
Mount the controller
Install a screw (included) into the
wall. Use the expanding anchors
(included) for plaster, masonry
or drywall installations. Hang the
controller on the installed screw
using the keyhole slot. Level the
controller and use the second screw
in one of the pre-formed mounting
holes to secure the controller.

FCC and IC Statement Déclaration de FCC et l’IC
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and Industry
Canada license exempt RSS standards. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
FCC Warning: Any changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate this equipment.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
This device meets the FCC and IC requirements for RF exposure
in public or controlled environments. The end user is advised to
maintain a distance of 20 cm from the controller and any personnel
to ensure compliance with RF exposure regulations.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003
Cet appareil est conforme à la section 15 de la Règlementation
de la FCC et la norme RSS d’Industry Canada.
Son fonctionnement est soumis aux deux conditions suivantes:
(1) cet appareil ne doit pas causer d’interférences nuisibles, et
(2) cet appareil doit tolérer toutes les interférences, dont les
interférences pouvant causer un fonctionnement non désiré.
Cet appareil numérique de classe B est conforme à la norme
canadienne ICES-003.
Remarque: cet appareil été testé et déclaré conforme aux
limites d’exposition pour les appareils numériques de classe
B, selon la section 15 de la Règlementation de la FCC. Ces
limites sont conçus pour fournir une protection raisonnable
contre les interférences nuisibles dans une installation
résidentielle. Cet appareil produit, utilise et peut émettre de
l’énergie radio fréquence et, si elle n’est pas installée et utilisée
conformément aux instructions, peut causer des interférences
nuisibles aux communications radio. Cependant, il n’est pas
garantie que des interférences ne se produisent pas dans une
installation particulière. Si cet appareil cause des interférences
gênantes à la réception d’un signal radio ou de télévision, ce
qui peut être déterminé en allumant et en éteignant l’appareil,
l’utilisateur peut corriger les interférences en suivants une des
mesures suivantes :
• Réorientez ou repositionnez l’antenne de réception.
• Augmentez la distance entre l’appareil et le récepteur.
• Branchez l’appareil dans une prise sur un circuit différent du
circuit sur lequel le récepteur est branché.
• Consulter le revendeur ou un technicien radio/TV
expérimenté pour obtenir de l’aide.
Cet appareil est conforme aux exigences de la FCC et de l’IC
concernant l’exposition aux ondes dans un environnement
public ou contrôlé. Il est conseillé à l’utilisateur final de
maintenir une distance de 20 cm du contrôleur pour assurer

Controller Installation–Pairing to Controller
Plug in your HRC 400 controller
Once your HRC 400 controller is
plugged into the power source, it will
automatically look to pair with your
smart device. In the top left corner of
the controller screen the “Bluetooth”
icon will flash with a graduated blinking
sequence. This indicates that your
controller is ready to pair with a smart
device.
