To install the ZigBee Module:

This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Before starting, discharge your body 
of static electricity by touching a grounded metal object. Always hold the devices by their edges 
and do not touch any of the internal components. 

1.  Use a lat-head screwdriver to gently remove the Smart Thermostat faceplate 

A

 from 

the gray backplate attached to the wall. Once removed, lay the Smart Thermostat on a 
lat surface, with the internal components facing up.

2.  Insert the plastic stand-of 

B

 that comes with the ZigBee Module 

C

 into the round hole 

in the thermostat circuit board, just above the battery.

3.  Align the connector of the ZigBee Module to the connector on the Smart Thermostat and 

gently push into place. The stand-of will secure the module and ensure it does not move.

4.   Make sure the top of the plastic stand-of snaps through the ZigBee module, as shown in 

the illustration on the right. 

5. Attach the Smart Thermostat back onto the backplate on the wall.

Instruction Manual

  

At ecobee, we’re not just all about thermostats – we’re about energy solutions.  

That’s why we’ve created Smart Plugs, WiFi-enabled electrical outlets that you 

can monitor and control from your existing Smart Thermostat and ecobee® 

Web Portal.

To verify the software version you are running:

1. From the Smart Thermostat Home screen, press 

More

.

2. Press 

Settings, 

select 

About

, then select 

Version

.

Step 1. Check Smart Thermostat Software

To use Smart Plugs, your Smart Thermostat needs to be running software 

version 2.4.0.298 or later. Software updates occur automatically when the Smart 

Thermostat is connected to the Internet.  If you are running an earlier software 

version, contact ecobee customer service (email  support@ecobee.com or call 

877-932-6233) to receive a free upgrade.

Step 2. Install ZigBee® Module

To use Smart Plugs, you need to install a ZigBee Module in your Smart Thermostat. You only need one module per thermostat – it can be connected to an unlimited 

number of Smart Plugs. If you already have installed a ZigBee Module, you can skip this step.

1.   From the Home screen,  press 

More

.

2.   Press 

Settings

 and select 

ZigBeeModule(Internal)

. Follow the 

prompts to conigure Home Automation. You may choose to add 
your smart plug at this time, as per the prompts or add the plug once 
the setup is complete.

Step 3. Install Smart Plug Into Outlet

Plug the Smart Plug into a standard household electrical outlet, then plug in a light or appliance. Ensure that the switch on the actual light or appliance is left in the ON 

position. The Status LED should start lashing (indicating that the Smart Plug is looking for a network to join). If the Status LED does not start lashing, press and hold the 

switch for 10 seconds.

Step 4. Set Up ZigBee Network

If this is your irst Smart Plug you will need to set up a ZigBee Home Automation 

network with your ecobee Smart Thermostat. You can skip this step if you 

previously connected any ZigBee devices.

Step 5. Adding Smart Plug to Network

After you have set up your ZigBee network (step 4), you connect your Smart Plug 
to the Smart thermostat.  The ecobee Smart Thermostat will scan the network 
and automatically detect any unconnected Smart Plugs. 

The default name is the last 4 digits of the Smart Plug’s MAC address (a 
unique number printed on the back of each device). You can give it an easier 
to remember name (like “Living Room Light”). Providing your own custom 
name makes it easier to identify the plug, especially if you have mulitple plugs 
installed.

1.   From the Home screen,  press 

More

.

2.   Press 

Settings

 and select 

Home Automation

.

3.   Press 

Add

.

4.   Press and hold the On/Of switch on the Smart Plug for 6 seconds. 

The Status LED will start lashing green.

5.  On the Smart Thermostat, press 

Next

. The Smart Thermostat will 

search for the Smart Plug.

6.   Press 

Done

. Your Smart Plug is now joined with the network.
