Rev: 2018 –7A ©2018 Store It Cold, LLC 6
HOW DOES THE COOLBOT PRO WORK WITH YOUR A/C?
The CoolBot Pro uses 2 temperature sensors (ROOM and FINS), the HEATER cable (red tip) and a programmed micro-
controller to direct your air conditioner to operate in such a way as to cool the room to a set temperature in between
33°F/0.5°C and 65°F/18°C without freezing up.
How does it do this?
The HEATER cable (red tip) is keeping your A/C’s sensor warm to make the A/C “think” it is warmer than the actual
room temperature. By doing this, the compressor on your A/C keeps running and cools down the space.
The ROOM and the FIN sensors tell the HEATER when to stop running. When the HEATER turns off, the A/C’s sensor
cools down and shuts off the compressor in response.
If the room temperature reaches the set value, the HEATER will stop running. Your A/C’s Temperature sensor will cool
down and shut the compressor off.
If the fins of your A/C are reaching the freezing set point (33°F factory default), the HEATER will stop running. Your
A/C’s Temperature sensor will cool down and shut the compressor off to allow for a defrost cycle. This is normal even
if the room has not reached its set point.
A slowly blinking Heater Activity Light is completely normal during operation.
It indicates that the CoolBot is “Calling for Cooling and the Heater Cable is getting hot.
The defrost cycle of the A/C does not use heat;
it defrosts by turning your compressor off and circulating air over the frosted coil.
HOW DOES THE JUMPER WORK WITH YOUR COOLBOT PRO?
The Jumper is the “middle man” in between your CoolBot Pro controller and your Wi-Fi Network. It allows the CoolBot
Pro App to receive data from the controller and vice versa. The Jumper does not need batteries. It gets power through
the Data Cable from the CoolBot Pro controller.
IMPORTANT!
An available Wi-Fi Network is required for the Jumper to operate. Mount the Jumper outside of your cooler in a
place where you have a strong Wi-Fi signal.
Connect your Jumper to the CoolBot Pro using ONLY the supplied Data Cable.
NOTE: The CoolBot Pro can still work to cool your room without the Jumper. Just install the CoolBot Pro without the
Data Cable and without the Jumper connected to it. Your CoolBot Pro will keep your cooler cold but you won’t be able
to access data or change settings from the CoolBot Pro App.

Rev: 2018 –7A ©2018 Store It Cold, LLC 7
BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR COOLBOT PRO

CONNECTING YOUR COOLBOT PRO TO YOUR WI-FI NETWORK
IMPORTANT
A subscription plan is required in order to access and use the CoolBot Pro App
CoolBot Pro and CoolBot Jumper Set Up
STEP 1 Unpack the CoolBot Pro in an area with good Wi-Fi reception (outside of your cooler). Plug in the
Temperature Sensors and the Heater Cable into the corresponding ports (See diagram on page 4). Don’t
connect the cables to your A/C and don’t plug in the power supply.
STEP 2 Connect the CoolBot Jumper to the CoolBot Pro using ONLY the provided silver/grey Data Cable. The
provided Data Cable is specific to the CoolBot Pro/Jumper –standard phone cable will not work and may
damage your CoolBot Pro/Jumper.
STEP 3 In an area where your phone gets good Wi-Fi reception, plug in the CoolBot Pro’s Power Supply. You should
see codes and flashing mode lights for several seconds. These should settle down to one flashing Program
light, and the code “E0” alternating with the current room temperature.
Wi-Fi Configuration and Web App Set Up
STEP 4 Start the CoolBot Pro App by scanning the QR Code on your smartphone or go to the
web page https://cb.storeitcold.com on a device that has Wi-Fi (smartphone, tablet,
PC, etc.).
STEP 5 On the first screen, fill in your email address and create a password. The email address
will be used for notifications, as well as to link your data to your account.
STEP 6 Select “Create New Account” and the App will guide you through configuring the CoolBot Pro to talk to the
CoolBot server using your Wi-Fi Network.
STEP 7 The App will also connect you to our credit card processing portal for selection and payment for the
subscription service of your choice. This is necessary to enable the CoolBot Pro's interactive App-based
features.
STEP 8 Continue to follow the prompts. When prompted, you will need to change the Wi-Fi settings on your device
(smartphone, tablet, PC) to connect to the Wi-Fi Network called “CoolBot”. On most smartphone use
Settings > Wi-Fi and on most PCs use the network or Wi-Fi status icon.
STEP 9 Choose or type in the Wi-Fi Network you want the CoolBot to use. This is usually the same network your
phone uses, but it can be a different network if you prefer. Enter the Wi-Fi password for the network and
press Next.
STEP 10 Once the CoolBot Pro is connected to the Network, you should see no codes (and no flashing) on the
CoolBot Pro display.

Rev: 2018 –7A ©2018 Store It Cold, LLC 9
If your device did not automatically switch back to your usual Wi-Fi settings use the method outlined in
STEP 8 to switch them back. You should now see temperatures on the app.
You are all set up! Unplug your CoolBot Pro from the power supply and proceed to “INSTALLING YOUR COOLBOT PRO
TO YOUR A/C” Section of this guide and then to THE COOLBOT PRO APP Section to learn about the amazing features
of your web base app.
INSTALLING YOUR COOLBOT PRO TO YOUR A/C
IMPORTANT!
If you ever need to adjust the Data Cable or CoolBot Jumper placement, unplug the CoolBot Pro before
connecting or disconnecting the Data Cable.
ATTENTION!
We understand how important this investment is for you, and we understand the value behind the product that you
will store in your cooler. We highly recommend that you read your A/C and CoolBot Pro installation manual, follow
the setup guide step by step, and familiarize yourself with the use and troubleshooting of the CoolBot Pro as well as
your A/C unit.
After installing your CoolBot, we strongly advise you to run your cooler for a test period (at least 24 hours) and place
some buckets of water or non-perishables to add mass. This is to assure the system is performing correctly and to your
needs.
If you are installing your CoolBot Pro to a Mini Split air conditioner system please use this step by step guide
along with our Mini Split Installation Guide available at our library at: www.storeitcold.com/support
STEP 1 Plug the cables into the corresponding labeled ports at the bottom of the CoolBot Pro except for the Data
Cable.
Plug the cables in and out a couple times as sometimes they don't “seat” all the way the first time.
If you are replacing an existing CoolBot with removable Temperature Sensors and Heater Cables, you can
leave them in place and connect them to the CoolBot Pro.
The CoolBot Pro works with both black and blue Temperature Sensor Cables.
The Room Sensor should hang free in the room.
STEP 2 Mount the CoolBot on the wall next to the control panel side of the A/C to make it easier to connect the
cables.
CAUTION! Make sure the wall fasteners are smaller in diameter than the hole in the CoolBot Pro tabs or
you will break the plastic tabs.
STEP 3 Remove the air filter from the front of the A/C unit. DO NOT use it!
The filters drastically reduce cooling power and increase your chances of icing up.
Clean your fins two times a month.
Remove the plastic grill if you can.
Some A/C units have a “fresh air vent” tab. This allows some mix of outside air inside the room. If
applicable, make sure it is closed.

Rev: 2018 –7A ©2018 Store It Cold, LLC 10
STEP 4 Find and free your A/C’s Temperature Sensor. It’s the only thing attached to the front fins/grill of your air
conditioner.
On Mini Split air conditioning units this sensor is often not in front of the fins of the indoor unit. It may be
tucked into a plastic cover underneath or to the side of the unit. For pictures and examples of Mini Split
installations please visit our library section at: www.storeitcold.com/support
If your A/C has a clip built into the sensor to hold the sensor in the fins, remove the sensor from the clip
and free it enough to reach the side of the A/C - DO NOT use the mounting clip for this installation
STEP 5 Using ONLY a 2” square piece of Aluminum foil, place
the CoolBot Heater Cable (red tip) next to the A/C’s
Temperature Sensor (from STEP 4).
Keep together next to each other, pointing in the
same direction, and wrap them tightly with the foil.
Make sure they are away from the fins & flow of the air
and hang free, not touching anything cold or metal.
You can put a wire tie or zip tie around the 2 cables (1
inch before the foil) to keep the cables from getting
pulled apart.
STEP 6
IMPORTANT!
If your A/C has a Secondary Sensor, IT MUST BE UNPLUGGED.
➢Window LG (except Inverter models) and window HAIER units DO NOT have Secondary Sensors (skip to STEP 7).
➢Most GE, Danby, Frigidaire, Arctic King, etc. A/C units over 10K BTUs have a Secondary Sensor.
➢All “Mini-Split”air conditioners have Secondary Sensors.
Use just 1 layer of electrical tape to attach the end of the Secondary Sensor to the OUTSIDE of the aluminum foil
connection from STEP 5. See picture below.
For videos and pictures on how to locate the secondary sensor go to: https://www.storeitcold.com/support
Main A/C Sensor
Secondary A/C Sensor

Rev: 2018 –7A ©2018 Store It Cold, LLC 11
STEP 7 Use a pen/pencil to open a small gap in the fins about 1” from the bottom and near the center (horizontally),
between the bottom and second horizontal cooling pipes.
Take the cable sensor coming from the CoolBot Pro port labeled “Fins” and gently insert just 1/4 inch (0.7
cm) of the TIP into the small gap.
DO NOT force the sensor in, you'll damage it.
Do not touch a coolant pipe with the Fins Sensor.
You want to be between the bottom 2 horizontal cooling pipes.
Pinch the fins lightly around the sensor to keep it in place.
STEP 8 If you do not have Wi-Fi skip this step and go to STEP 9.
Mount the CoolBot Jumper outside of your cooler in a location close enough for the provided Data Cable
to connect the CoolBot Pro to the CoolBot Jumper.
The CoolBot Jumper is not weatherproof. If it is to be mounted outdoors where rain, snow, and sunlight
may get to it, then install it inside of a weatherproof nonmetallic container.
After your CoolBot Jumper is mounted, connect the CoolBot Pro and the CoolBot Jumper using ONLY the
provided Data Cable.
ATTENTION!
The provided Data Cable is specific to the CoolBot Pro/Jumper –standard phone cable will not work and may
damage your CoolBot Pro/Jumper.
STEP 9 Turn your A/C ON. Set the A/C on “COOL” Mode and set the Fan on “HIGH” speed. Set the A/C temperature
to the lowest setting. Plug in your CoolBot Pro power supply.
STEP 10 To set the temperature on your CoolBot Pro, press the checkmark button –the current set temperature
will blink. Use the right or left arrows to set the temperature to the desired value. Press the checkmark to
save the value.

What Is Temperature Hysteresis?
As you watch your Temperature History Graph on your app, you may see that the air temperature in your cooler
behaves like a “wave” that goes up and down around your set point. This is completely normal for any refrigeration
system. Hysteresis is the difference in the On and Off temperatures of your cooler as it cycles.
On a perfect scenario, as soon as the refrigeration system reaches the set point (e.g. 38°F) it would turn off
immediately, warm up a bit (e.g. 38.01°F), and then turn on again, and at 38°F it would turn off again. The end result
would be something that is continually turning on and off. This constant starting and stopping would wear the
refrigeration system out and it would fail in a short period of time.
Hysteresis is not only normal but necessary to avoid this frequent On and Off cycling. Hysteresis is dependent of
many factors including calibration of equipment, response time of temperature probes, CoolBot settings, etc.
The hysteresis value on a CoolBot cooler that has been designed following our recommendations and with a
controller set to factory settings is normally around +/- 2°F from the set point.
Hysteresis in your cooler may be of a higher value and that is not a bad thing. Just adjust your set temperature so that
the high and low values stay within acceptable ranges for your product. Remember that the sensors of the CoolBot
are very sensitive to air changes, and the fact that the air temperature changes rapidly at a given point, doesn’t
mean that your product is changing temperature at the same rate.
Your product has significantly more mass than the CoolBot sensors and it will take a much longer time to gain
temperature when exposed to higher air temperatures.
If you were to measure your product temperature you would see that it remains essentially constant while the air
temperature in your cooler fluctuates up and down.
