INSTALLATION AND OWNER’S MANUAL
RTS-W – 20, 40, 60 minutes Wireless Timer
*Compatible with ECO-Touch IAQ Only
OVERVIEW
The RTS-W is a battery operated wireless timer switch that can be
used with an ECO-Touch IAQ wall control to wirelessly activate its
highest ventilation rate for 20, 40 or 60 minutes.
It is designed to t in a single-gang box and comes with screws to
mount it and a Decora® plate.
INSTALLATION
Battery
This timer comes with a CR2450 battery cell which must be installed
in the timer before pairing to the ECO-Touch IAQ wall control.
Battery Replacement
Over time, the battery will need to be replaced, only replace with
CR2450 3V type batteries.
Timer Pairing
This timer can be paired only to a Fantech HRV/ERV via the ECO-
Touch IAQ wall control. The timer should be paired to the ECO-Touch
IAQ wall control prior to mounting the timer to the wall in it’s nal
location.
Pairing steps:
1. Install the battery in the timer as described above
2. Make sure ECO-Touch IAQ is installed in it's nal location, properly
connected to the HRV/ERV and powered ON (see ECO-Touch IAQ
installation instructions for more information).
3. On the ECO-Touch IAQ control, press on the "Options" section at
the bottom of the screen then press on "Next" during the initial 5
second countdown sequence to enter the user options.
4. Press on "next" until you enter the pairing screen. The pairing
screen shows the word "pt0" at the bottom where "0" is the cur-
rent amount of paired timers.
Note: As you pair more timers, this screen will show the current
number of paired timers (ie: pt1, pt2, etc.)
5. While on this screen, press and hold the activation button for 5-10
seconds on the wireless timer you wish to pair to this ECO-Touch
IAQ wall control. No button press is required on the ECO-Touch IAQ
to pair the timer.
Note: Timers can ONLY be paired while the ECO-Touch IAQ is on the
"paired timer" screen within the options menu.
6. If pairing is a success, the wireless icons will ash on the ECO-
Touch IAQ wall control screen and the count of paired timers will
increase by 1 on the display. Also, the LEDs on the timer being
paired will ash in sequence from 20, to 40, to 60 minutes, and
nally all 3 will ash together once to indicate the pairing is suc-
cessful.
7. Test the timer in it's nal location before permanently installing to
the wall to ensure it is within operational range of the ECO-Touch IAQ.
Note: Up to 8 timers can be paired to the ECO-Touch IAQ wall control
at one time.

Symptom Solution
No light turns on Check that the battery is correctly installed or replace with a fresh battery if needed.
When I press on the timer button, all 3 LEDs blink together 3 times. This indicates that the wireless timer is not receiving a signal back from a paired ECO-Touch
IAQ controller. This means that either the timer is not currently paired to a compatible ECO-
Touch IAQ controller or it means that the ECO-Touch IAQ controller is not in wireless range of
the timer.

Timer Un-pairing
Sometimes it becomes necessary to un-pair the wireless timers from the ECO-Touch IAQ wall control. This can be done from the “UNP” screen
within the options menu by holding down on “NEXT” for 5-10 seconds on this screen.
Operational Range
The wireless range of the timer to the ECO-Touch IAQ wall control is about 50 feet however each wall/oor or other types of obstacles between the
wireless timers and the ECO-Touch IAQ can reduce the range by 10 or more feet. Test the timers at their desired nal locations before doing nal
installation.
For very long distances, it may be required to use a wired timer instead.
Timer Installation
The timer can be installed to a gang electrical box or directly onto drywall using drywall anchors (not provided).
Note: It is recommended to use a plastic gang electrical box for timer installation as metal boxes will reduce operational range.
Securing the RTS-W to the wall
1. Mount the timer to the single-gang box using the provided screws.
2. Mount the Decora® plate onto the RTS-W using the provided screws.
OPERATING THE RTS-W
• Pressing the PUSH button once will activate the highest ventilation rate of the HRV / ERV for 20 minutes. Once pressed, the green light will
ash once, and remain on for approximately 5 seconds, then it will periodically ash for a brief moment indicating the remaining timer duration.
• Pressing the PUSH button twice will activate the highest ventilation rate of the HRV / ERV for 40 minutes. Once pressed, the green light will
ash once, and remain on for approximately 5 seconds, then it will periodically ash for a brief moment indicating the remaining timer duration.
• Pressing the PUSH button three times will activate the highest ventilation rate of the HRV / ERV for 60 minutes. Once pressed, the green light
will ash, and remain on for approximately 5 seconds, then it will periodically ash for a brief moment indicating the remaining timer duration.
• Pressing the PUSH button again while it is set to the 60 minute duration will cancel the timer.
• Once the time expires or if the timer is canceled, the HRV / ERV will return to its normal ventilation capacity, as set on the principal ventilation
control and the green light will turn off.
Low Battery Indication
A red led will periodically illuminate next to the “Low Battery” icon on the timer when the time comes to replace the battery.
