Instructions:
-
Using your Phillips-head screwdriver, remove the cover from the CTA-2045 port of the water heater. This should be a small black rectangle.
-
Take your EcoPort module out of the white box and attach the provided antenna to the small metal port on the right side of the module.
-
Plug your EcoPort module into the EcoPort on the water heater. It should only fit one way.
-
It should light up with solid then blinking white under ‘Status’. Wait until the ‘Status’ LED holds a steady blue light for more than 15 seconds consecutively. Give it at least 3 minutes to achieve this state.
-
If your ‘Status’ light is holding blue, proceed to Final. If not, continue to Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
-
If your status light is not holding steady, remove the EcoPort module from power source.
-
Once removed from power, remove the antenna and attach the 10-foot extension cable provided by SkyCentrics to the metal port on the EcoPort module and attach the provided antenna to the end of the extension cable.
-
The extension cable should be used to move the antenna away from the water heater, upwards, and towards a window.
-
Once this is accomplished, reconnect your EcoPort module to the power source.
The EcoPort will try to reconnect. Please give this process up to 3 minutes before trying anything else.
5. Once the EcoPort module is showing a steady blue light, move to Final.
