ColorTouch thermostats support the handling of specific signals from the utility provider. The utility generated signals carry pricing information and/or setback actions that alter the comfort settings of the thermostat in order to reduce energy usage on demand. This is known as Automated Demand Response or ADR for short. You must register to participate in a utility sponsored program, if offered by your local utility, to take advantage of this feature.
SKYPORT CLOUD SERVICES
From the web application the user will select Thermostat Settings from the left column. Then the Demand Response button is selected.
Main Menu Buttons – Settings
The Demand Response configuration page, shown below, is where the thermostat is configured to respond to the energy provider’s signals. It also sets operational parameters for the thermostat. The left column of the ADR configuration page allows or prevents access by the utility. Here communication with the utility and your thermostat may be turned On or Off.
The selected utility will provide a Program ID. The Account ID would normally be the occupants utility account number.
The right column of the ADR configuration page is where the occupant adjusts the operational parameters for ADR. The utility may send up to 3 types of ADR signals to Skyport. These are:
Pricing for the cost of energy, 2) An Offset to the occupants’ comfort setpoints, and 3) a signal to enforce discrete or Static setpoints. The Maximum Cooling Setpoint and Minimum Heating Setpoints for ADR events are adjusted here. The Static Settings are applied when the utility sends a signal to allow the occupant to enforce their own discrete temperature settings during an ADR event. The Offset Settings allow the utility to modify the Cool or Heat setpoints by the value set here during an ADR event. A Price Trigger setting allows the occupant to set the maximum cost of energy threshold. When this threshold is exceeded the Price dependent action is enforced. This Price Trigger and Dependent action is enforced independent of an ADR event, as long as the utility sends ‘real-time’ pricing.
Selecting the Overview tab of the ADR page will cause a summary of ADR events to be displayed.
Automated Demand Response
Utility and Program setup must be done at the Skyport Cloud Services account. From the thermostat Home Screen, press the ‘Menu’ button, then select ‘Settings”.
From the above screen the ‘Automated Demand Response’ button is pressed.
By selecting ADR – On, the user can participate in ADR events triggered by their utility, or price dependent events.
Selecting the ‘Price Dependent Action’ button allows the user to determine what action is taken when the price rises above the set threshold.
In the above example; if the price threshold is exceeded, the thermostat will invoke the ‘Offset Setpoints’ configured for an ADR event until the event is over. Please note that the Threshold price may only be set in the Skyport Cloud Services account. Selecting ‘Skip Event’ will take no action when the set price threshold is exceeded.

Before you go any further, determine what your existing wiring and equipment situation is.
- If you have a Heating only system without Air Conditioning, the Venstar thermostat will require 3 wires: R (24Vac), C (24Vac) and
W (Heat). Most systems that only have Heating use very simple thermostats that require 2 wires: the R (24Vac) and W (Heat). The Venstar thermostat requires 3 wires to the thermostat. In this case an Add-a-Wire accessory will not work and it will be necessary to install another wire for the C (24Vac) connection. - If you have a single stage fossil fuel heater with air conditioning, the Venstar model will require 5 wires for independent fan control. They are R (24Vac), C (24Vac), W (Heat), Y (Cooling), and G (Fan). You may connect only 4 wires, as instructed in the “Making 4 Wires Work When 5 Wires Are Required” section on page 74.
If there are only 4 wires present that are connected to the existing thermostat, there are at least 3 options available to connect the Venstar thermostat:- Use the 4 wires as instructed in the“Making 4 Wires Work When 5 Wires Are Required” section on page 74, and note that the fan will only operate with a Heating or Cooling demand.
- Pull new thermostat wire from the HVAC equipment to the thermostat so that there are at least 5 wires available.
- Purchase and install a Venstar Add-A-Wire accessory.
- If you have a multi-stage HVAC system comprised of a fossil fuel heater with air conditioning, the Venstar thermostat will require the 5 wires mentioned above (R, C, W, Y, G) plus an additional wire for each additional stage of Heating or Cooling. You may reduce the 5 wire requirement to 4 if you give up independent fan control following the instruction in the “Making 4 Wires Work When 5 Wires Are Required” section on page 53, or use the optional Add-A-Wire accessory.
- If you have a heat pump without aux heat, the Venstar model will require 5 wires: R (24Vac), C (24Vac), W1/O/B (Reversing Value), Y (1st Stage Compressor), and G (Fan).
If you are short 1 wire, there are at least 3 options available to connect the Venstar thermostat:- Use the available wires as instructed in the“Making 4 Wires Work When 5 Wires Are Required” section on page 56 and note that the fan will only operate with a Heating or Cooling demand.
- Pull new thermostat wire from the HVAC equipment to the thermostat so that there are at least 5 wires available.
- Purchase and install a Venstar Add-A-Wire accessory.
- if you have a heat pump with aux heat, the Venstar model will require 6 wires: R (24Vac), C (24Vac), W1/O/B (Reversing Value), Y (1st Stage Compressor), W2 (Aux Heat), and G (Fan). If you are short 1 wire, there are at least 3 options available to connect the Venstar thermostat:
- Use the available wires as instructed in the“Making 5 Wires Work When 6 Wires Are Required” section on page 57 and note that the fan will only operate with a Heating or Cooling demand.
- Pull new thermostat wire from the HVAC equipment to the thermostat so that there are at least 6 wires available.
- Purchase and install a Venstar Add-A-Wire accessory.
Making 4 Wires Work When 5 Wires Are Required
If you would like to install the Venstar thermostat using only 4 wires when 5 are required, follow the directions below. You will need a screwdriver along with a 3″ long piece of thermostat wire to use as a jumper:
- Make sure the power is off.
- Label and disconnect wires at the thermostat. Please note the color and corresponding wire designator with each color. For example: The R wire is red and the W wire is white and so on. You will need this information handy for the next step at the HVAC equipment.
- At the HVAC equipment end of the thermostat wires (usually at the furnace), locate the terminals that the wires are attached to.
- Remove the “G wire” from the terminal marked G.
- Place the “G wire” on terminal C.
- Place one end of the 3″ long jumper on terminal G.
- Place the other end of the 3″ long jumper on terminal Y. Please note that there will be more than 1 wire on terminal Y.
- When connecting the wires to the Venstar thermostat, note that the wire that was previously connected to the G terminal of the old thermostat will now be required to be connected to the C terminal on the Venstar thermostat. All other wires will be connected such that the connections on each end of the individual wires match terminal designations. For example: Connect the yellow wire on the thermostat end to the Y terminal on the thermostat. The yellow wire will be connected to the Y terminal on the HVAC equipment end also.
Making 5 Wires Work When 6 Wires Are Required
If you have a system that requires 6 wires, and you would like to install the Venstar thermostat using only 5 wires, follow the directions below. You will need a screwdriver along with a 3″ long piece of thermostat wire to use as a jumper:
- Make sure the power is off.
- Label and disconnect wires at the thermostat. Please note the color and corresponding wire designator with each color. For example: The R wire is red and the W wire is white and so on. You will need this information handy for the next step at the HVAC equipment.
- At the HVAC equipment end of the thermostat wires (usually at the furnace), locate the terminals that the wires are attached to.
- Remove the “G wire” from the terminal marked G.
- Place the “G wire” on terminal C.
- Place one end of the 3″ long jumper on terminal G.
- Place the other end of the 3″ long jumper on terminal Y. Please note that there will be more than 1 wire on terminal Y.
- When connecting the wires to the Venstar thermostat, note that the wire that was previously connected to the G terminal of the old thermostat will now be required to be connected to the C terminal on the Venstar thermostat. All other wires will be connected such that the connections on each end of the individual wires match terminal designations. For example: Connect the yellow wire on the thermostat end to the Y terminal on the thermostat. The yellow wire will be connected to the Y terminal on the HVAC equipment end also.\
The Venstar Backplate
IMPORTANT: This thermostat requires both R (24 VAC Return) and C (24 VAC Common) be connected to the backplate terminals.
Explanation of Thermostat Dip Switches
Dip switches are located on the back of the thermostat
- This dip switch configures the thermostat to control a conventional gas/electric system or a heat pump. If your system is anything other than a heat pump, leave this switch set for GAS/EL.* For some commercial heat pumps, this switch may need to be set for GAS/EL. Consult the commercial heat pump literature. When the GAS/EL or HP dip switch is configured for HP, this dip switch (O or B) must be set to control the appropriate reversing valve. If O is chosen, the W1/O/B terminal will energize in cooling. If B is chosen, the W1/O/B terminal will energize in heating.
- When GAS/EL or HP is set for GAS/EL:
This switch (GAS or ELEC) controls how the thermostat will control the Fan (G) terminal in heating mode. When GAS is chosen, the thermostat will not energize the Fan (G) terminal in heating. When ELEC is chosen the thermostat will energize the fan in heating. - When GAS/EL or HP is set for HP:
- This switch (GAS or ELEC) defines the Aux Heat type. When GAS is chosen, the auxiliary heat will not be allowed to run during heat pump operation. When using a Dual Fuel system, set this switch for GAS. When ELEC is chosen, up to two stages of auxiliary strip heat will be allowed to run.
- When GAS/EL or HP is set for GAS/EL:
