Flashing Magenta LED
Both communication wires – at the smart hub COMM BUS A or B terminals are reversed.
Flashing Magenta LED
Power wires at smart hub 12VDC + and - terminals are disconnected.
Flashing Magenta LED.
If terminals are connected correctly, then check HD Display to subbase attachment. Verify the
display is securely fasten to subbase and horizontally aligned.

IMPORTANT
Use 1-pair, 18AWG unshielded thermostat cable (field-provided) for power terminals (R, C, 12+ AND 12-). We highly recommend using 18 - 22AWG shielded
thermostat cable for communications terminals (I+, I-, A and B) which will help eliminate any noise interference.
