System and method for handing off the configuration of a building device from a contractor to a customer using a hang tag or the like

A method of installing and configuring a building controller having a wireless interface, the building controller for controlling one or more building devices in a building, the method comprising:

• interacting with a user interface displayed by a mobile device to provide contractor identification, wherein one or more contractor configuration screens are displayed by the mobile device in response to verification using the contractor identification information;
• interacting with the one or more contractor configuration screens displayed by the mobile device to generate contractor configuration information that only partially configure the building controller, wherein the one or more contractor screens comprise a home screen providing functionality to change a set point to a first set point temperature, and wherein the building controller is configured to operate the one or more building devices to maintain the first set point temperature while partially configured;
• securing a wall plate of a building controller to a wall at a building location;
• inserting a hang tag between a head unit of the building controller and the wall plate of the building controller, wherein the hang tag includes a message indicating an identifier of the building controller and an instruction directing a customer to fully configure the building controller by providing the identifier to a remote computing device;
• coupling the head unit of the building controller to the wall plate;
• and
• using information in the message to fully configure the building controller, wherein fully configuring the building controller comprises associating the building controller with a second set point temperature of a customer profile set, using one or more customer screens different from the one or more contractor screens, by the customer, and wherein the building controller is configured to operate the one or more building devices to maintain the second set point temperature while fully configured.
