Honeywell TH8320ZW Thermostat Release Notes

Preface

For information on Z-Wave and ClareHome, see Installing Z-Wave with ClareHome Tech Bulletin (DOC ID 1162).

Notes

• When installing Z-Wave devices, ensure that there is nothing inhibiting their signal. Z-Wave relies on radio signals. Metal or thick walls may limit their signal strength.
• We recommend having 2 or more repeating Z-Wave devices.

Introduction

The Honeywell TH8320ZW is a Z-Wave thermostat that has been tested and certified for integration with the ClareHome system.

By integrating the Honeywell thermostat to a ClareHome control system, your customers can send commands to the thermostat to change the modes, cool and heat settings, and the fan status from their mobile iOS devices or Android smartphone.

When integrating the Honeywell thermostat into your ClareHome project, no extra connection is necessary. Install the thermostat according to the Honeywell documentation, and then connect it to the home network using Z-Wave.

The Honeywell thermostat integrates with the ClareHome system in a way similar to the existing HVAC integrations. All HVAC integrations share a common UI, so that the user experience is consistent.

Temperature settings can be controlled via events. Use Fusion’s Scenes and Rules to automate the actions your customers want.

The following figure shows the Honeywell controls on the ClareHome UI.
