The LG Multisite CRC2 series thermostats have 3 versions:
For wireless control, the models support either ZigBee or Wi-Fi (PREMTBVC4 supports both simultaneously).
The Zigbee Pro wireless module is required for the thermostat controller to communicate with the optional compatible
wireless sensors and the Wi-Fi module is required for BACnet over IP communication.
Installation of the modules should be simple with the following steps:
• Remove security screw (if any) on bottom of Remote Controller cover.
• Open unit by pulling on bottom side of Remote Controller.
• Carefully remove Remote Controller’s Motherboard from casing and turn over.
• Locate gap in upper-right corner of Remote Controller’s motherboard and locate holes to insert the module into the motherboard.
• Align connector pins on Zigbee Pro or Wi-Fi module with holes on motherboard. Ensure alignment of pins is correct so as to not damage the module.
• Gently press the ZigBee Pro or Wi-Fi module into the Remote Controller’s motherboard until it fits snugly in place.
• Finally reinstall the motherboard into the casing and put back the cover and the screw.
Note that with the Wi-Fi card installed, the BACnet IP (wireless) will be used and not the BACnet MS/TP protocol. With the Wi-Fi module installed, you can access the controller via IP to access the configuration web page.
There are other Wi-Fi modules like
PWFMDD200 that can be used to control compatible LG’s indoor units with the SmartThinQ app installed on user’s phone.
