User questions & answers

Question:	Do I need to have a Honeywell gateway? This is an additional piece of hardware used by some of the Honeywell thermostats (ex. Prestige
Answer:	This Thermostat truly Rocks!! - It has a screen lock as well as Security codes for front panel access. It also has security if you want to use WiFi to remotely access it. Setup is a breeze also. I HIGHLY recommend this thermostat. The NEST is an excellent choice as well.
Question:	Without battery backup, what happens in a power outage? Is there internal memory that keeps the settings and how long, and is thermostat still usable
Answer:	What's Google home?
Question:	What happens to the room temperature when the internet is down
Answer:	I have a 5 year old Lux Thermostat. When we bought a new Rheem this past summer, the technician pulled the batteries out of it saying they were not needed. End result, is every time we have a power outage, the thermostat looses it's programming. it losses it when we change back and forth from heat to cool also. I'd be wary of any advice about removing batteries unless you're sure that it does not affect the thermostat memory. i say this as the A/C is on and it's program is set on 72 degrees. i had it set on 75 and have not attempted to reprogram it since that would be just a temporary fix it resets down to 72 often not sure why.
Question:	How do I figure out if this will work with my wiring? I read that there might be issues with the electric wires (might be missing one COMMON wire
Answer:	I just went to Best Buy to play with the RTH9585WF and see what is the difference in the settings. Color options do seem to be slightly different. Both have 7 day programing (four settings per day) plus vacation etc. The literature says the 9585 automatically switches between cool/heat but in 9585 system (MODE) there is only "heat", "cool" and "off". So my guess is the automatic is not a setting you pick. 9560 offers the forth option of automatic and will show heat and cool adjustments on the home page setting on the panel. Other than that I do not see any difference. My guess is the 9585 has a newer chip set but honestly I have no idea. I called Honeywell and the tech could not even tell me the difference other than it's the second generation model. Both work with Alexa and other smart devices and smart hubs. I'm still thinking of returning the 9580 for the 9585 but if I have to switch between heat and cold that is a deal breaker and I kind of like seeing the date when I walk buy. My guess is in a few years Honeywell will over a unit to compete with the Ecobee with something like Alexa built into it. Frankly, I'd purchase the Ecobeen 4 but my wife of 35 years thought the Ecobeen being black and kind of large and the white mounting plate was ugly and after 35 years of marriage I felt like this decision was not worth the fight.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this require a c wire? why does it need aaa batteries
Answer:	No need to have a Honeywell gateway for the Honeywell rth6580wf. You only need a wireless Internet modem dsl/broadband service phone line.
Question:	Will this work with the nest remote temperature sensors
Answer:	I found this information on another website (http://programmablethermostat.info/honeywell-rth6580wf-wi-fi-7-day-programmable-thermostat/)Real Time Clock:This thermostat does NOT have an internal battery. All program and installer set up functions are saved on to a chip and retained in case of a power outage. It does utilize a super capacitor for short term retention of the clock. If there is a lengthy power outage and if the RTH6580WF is connected to the internet, when power is restored it will automatically resynchronize with the internet time.
Question:	I have 4 wires, 1st wire is w/ 2nd y/3rd is g/4th is rh will this thermostat work with these wires
Answer:	If you have no Internet, this thermostat will simply operate as a non-WiFi enabled programmable thermostat (e.g., follow the schedule that you previously created) OR you use the buttons on it to adjust it manually. The only thing you lose with not having the Internet is the ability to use your phone to interact with it (e.g., change the settings and/or update the schedule). Just pretend like it is 1970 and adjust the thermostat like your parents did.
Question:	Does this work with the nest temperature sensor
Answer:	I did the following in a two-wire heat-only setup and it worked: 1) On the back panel of the new thermostat, remove the small jumper between the RC and R connectors. 2) Connect the outputs of a 24V AC transformer (I happened to use https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DJ7RHS5?ref=ppx_pt2_dt_b_prod_image) to the RC and C connectors on the new thermostat back panel. It does not matter which of these two wires goes to RC and which goes to C. 3) Connect the wire that had gone to either RC or R on the old thermostat to the R connector on the new thermostat back panel. Connect the wire that had gone to W on the old thermostat to the W connector on the new thermostat back panel. 4) Plug in the transformer to a nearby 120 V outlet. Snap the body of the new thermostat onto its back panel. Continue with the instructions provided with the new thermostat.

User questions & answers

Question:	How to wire up voice thermostat with only 2 wires ,r and w
Answer:	In most cases, Nest thermostats can get enough power from your system’s heating and cooling wires. But in a small number of situations you may need to connect a common or C wire to deliver enough consistent power to your thermostat when your heating and cooling wires are not able to deliver the needed power for your Nest thermostat. Battery drain issues normally happen when the power from your heating and cooling system goes out. The 2 AAA alkaline batteries are used as a backup, or to supplement if your system can’t deliver enough power.
Question:	I don't have a 'C' wire... how difficult is to adapt the Ecobee using the included cable and how is it done
Answer:	No
Question:	If you have an echo (alexa) in the room already, is there a way to turn the alexa on the thermostat “off”? or turn off the microphone/listening
Answer:	I found an interactive video on my utility’s website (Commonwealth Edison) that ran through the wiring questions. It will tell you if your system is compatible with Nest thermostats.
Question:	Can the Mic and Alexa be turned off
Answer:	No. Sensors are not compatible.

User questions & answers

Question:	Do you have to use an app, or does this also have the web portal (browser-based access) like the previous Vine TJ
Answer:	Yes, the app lets you set multiple locations and also multiple thermostats within each location. I use two separate locations (home and cottage) and one location has two thermostats (wood and LP). I find it easier to set everything up via the web interface (mytotalconnectcomfort) and then use the web or the app to manage the thermostats.
Question:	Will this work with a baseboard radiant heater like a cadet
Answer:	Otherwise known as a common wire. The c wire is connected to the heating and or cooling system. It gives you direct power from the thermostat instead of using a battery operated thermostat.
Question:	My vine keep resting when reaching temperature why and delete the schedule
Answer:	Hi Nehemiah, I have included a link below on how to wire up the Smart Thermostat with Voice Control with only 2 wires. There are many different options that you can choose from, so please review the link and choose which one best suits your particular situation. https://support.ecobee.com/hc/en-us/articles/227874667-Heat-only-2-wire-boiler-furnace-installations-for-ecobee-thermostats
Question:	se puede configurar con grados centigrados? sunciona como rele para calderas de radiadores
Answer:	It comes with an adapter if you do not have a "C" wire, you just have to install the adapter to the control board for your HVAC system, and then your wires going back to your thermostat to the adapter, installation / instruction manual walks you thru this step by step and includes labels for all the wiring on both ends
Question:	Can I have more than one thermostat controlled by the app
Answer:	You can but Alexa will only answer on the one that it hears most clearly. We have a dot in the kitchen, and living room and the ecobee in the hall they are all 3 are within 10-15 feet on the next one and only one answers when we speak to Alexa.
Question:	What is a c wire
Answer:	Just so it's clear, I've seen no evidence that the microphone can actually be turned off at a hardware level. This means that no, the mic cannot be truly turned off with regards to nefarious parties listening in to your home.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you program just the fan mode
Answer:	Hi there, this unit REQUIRES an internet connection, based on a WiFi (wireless) connection. Once the device establishes an internet connection to the Honeywell cloud (which is cool!) you can effectively control the thermoostat from anywhere you have an internet connection.... even your smartphone. Enjoy!
Question:	Is it smart enough to decide whether to run the heater or cooler to keep the temperature fixed
Answer:	The WiFi setup requires you to create an account on mytotalconnectcomfort.com. It’s not that hard. The biggest problem with this thermostat is the unreliable remote connectivity ever since Honeywell spun off their thermostat division 6 months ago. Now it’s frequent periods of time where the thermostat will not respond to remote commands. It’s maddening
Question:	What if i have a C wire
Answer:	When you put it on circulate, the fan comes on for about 10 minutes every 20 minutes or so. The owners manual says it runs about 35% of the time. I used this feature this Fall with the system off (no heat or a/c) just to circulate the air through my Filtrete filters.
Question:	Can you create a fan schedule? I’d like the fan to always run from 10pm until 6am
Answer:	These thermostats are not the same. Even the screen is different. The RTH9580 doesn't have the 3D look of the 9300 series.

User questions & answers

Question:	This only works with "c" wire. Doesnt work with batteries
Answer:	Well that is what a thermostat does, so I'd say yes. You typically pick a low temp and high temp and the thermostat keeps it between those temperatures. As a side note, I replaced this unit with a Nest Thermostat.
Question:	Is this compatible with a central air and heating system
Answer:	That will be good. Without one the ST55 won't receive 24VAC and will only run on battery power. Battery isn't enough to keep the Wifi radio powered and will shut down after about 2 hours if there is no call for heat within that time. I use this in my garage and only heat it before I go out to it and spend any time. It spends days without calling for heat and the only way I could keep the Wifi on was to wire in a common wire.
Question:	Is it compatible with zoned system
Answer:	Updated Answer: THANK YOU to Albert who pointed out below that the fan can be controlled through SmartThings! It was annoying to have to set up another app and service to do this, but it is a workaround to get around Sensi's frustrating limitation. SmartThings allows you to set the fan to Auto, On, or Circulate (but not the percentage of time to circulate) and automate that on any schedule you want. Unfortunately, Alexa and Google still don't allow you to control the fan at all, even though Sensi's API apparently allows it. Original Answer from June 6, 2020: No, you can't do a schedule like if you want it to run all the time during the night. Also, you can't control the fan from Alexa to schedule it that way. Very annoying and unreasonable that they wouldn't add that option since you can turn it on manually from the app. They do have the auto-circulate feature, but that's not the same.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is there a microphone and camera in the unit itself? Is this device secure from hacking and surveillance? How about the Lyric app
Answer:	No, it doesn't work with batteries. You must have a C wire to make it work. I had to use a C wire adapter (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VMV2BJ7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) in order to get mine hooked up.
Question:	Does this model handle S1 and S2 heat pump sensors
Answer:	I have a split system were the condensor is outside and the heater and blower motor are in the attic a typical system. I had to get 24 volts from the attic system to power up the thermostat this is what you need to do if you don't have a c wire. this was easy.
Question:	Will this reset, and return to it's program if power has been interupted ? It says hardwire power only, and I see no spot for batteries
Answer:	Yes as long as you install one per zone
Question:	Does it read humidity
Answer:	No, temperature is the only variable you can program. Fan mode is either On or Auto.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this work with smartthings
Answer:	Min Cycle Off Time: Enables you to configure the compressor off time between cycles. This is adjustable from 240 - 900 Seconds
Question:	If power goes out and wi-fi is lost, can it be reconnected remotely or automatically
Answer:	If it is not connected to internet, remote access is nit possible. You cannot access it by your mobile device but thermostat will still works as it is. It has its own power and if you set it before the internet connection is lost, it will still works with all your settings and preferences.
Question:	What do you mean bty requiring "C" wire
Answer:	Yes but the difference between heating and cooling will auto set with a minimum 5 degree difference. 5 degrees is quite a bit so I really don't use it much. You can't just set it to 70 and have it hold that temp and if I had to guess, it's due to the fact that heating and cooling use the same ducts and constantly switching from hot to cold will cause condensation and really isn't efficient at all. Really, the only time you'd use this feature is during fall and spring when the temperature outside can vary. Generally, mine is either set to heat or cool depending on the season. That being said, if you're ok with a 5 degree swing either way then it works well :-).
Question:	What is the difference between this thermostat and the rth9580wf
Answer:	You can have the fan run three different ways: -AUTO (in sync with a call for COOL or HEAT) -Always ON -ON for x minutes per hour (circulate function)

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this product able to control whole home humidifiers
Answer:	Based on Samsung's website - YES, this will work with SmartThings! I have had one of these thermostats for a few years now and have been content with using it just through wifi - I plan to play around with this now that I know it is compatible!! I know this is an old post, BUT - I love this thermostat and would absolutely use it again.
Question:	Can you use the temperature schedule on the unit, and also apple homekit geofencing to get the benefits of both rather than either or
Answer:	It will reconnect automatically once your power comes back on as long as the modem/router also comes back on and reconnects to the internet.
Question:	What is difference between this thermostat and the white wifi version
Answer:	I called Honeywell and was told the "C" wire is blue and in fact mine is blue. I have no black wire. I have 5 wires yellow, white, blue, green and red. I was told I could check for AC voltage by connecting my meter to the red and blue wires. The Honeywell tech was very helpful. 800 468-1502.
Question:	Does this have the capability of showing me a temperature chart of the past 12 hrs
Answer:	There is no functional difference between the two. This TH9320WF5003 is white and the RTH9580WF1005 is silver. The RTH9580WF1005 is the retail model with a 1 year warranty and this one is intended to be a contractor only model with a 5 year warranty. Honeywell's former policy was that the TH9320WF5003 warranty wouldn't be honored if not installed by a contractor. However, they have since changed this. You now get 1 year with this too if you install it yourself.
