How to Resolve the ER2 Message on the Terra Smart WiFi Thermostat?

When the thermostat reads “ER2,” the floor sensor has a short circuit or has a loose connection. Your electrician must secure connections and test the probe using a multimeter set to the lowest possible ohms scale. The resistance reading should be between 7 and 17 ohms.  If a short is found and a backup sensor probe was not installed, you can bypass the error message by setting the thermostat to read the air temperature instead.

First action to take is to press “accept,” which is also known as the check mark icon. Next, utilize the arrow buttons to navigate to the Settings icon, and then press “accept” to open the thermostat application. The Settings icon is represented by a gear icon. The thermostat application is represented by a thermometer icon.

After clicking on the thermostat application, you should now see a shield and thermometer icon. If you see the thermometer icon followed by the shield icon on your thermostat, it means that the control sensor is currently set to the floor sensor, and the limit sensor is set to the air sensor. If the order is reversed, the control sensor is set to the air sensor, and the limit sensor is set to the floor sensor.

The thermostat icon is also represented as the “control” sensor, while the shield icon is represented as the “limit” sensor.

In the example to the left, 1 means Floor Sensor, and 2 means Air Sensor.
