Zone Manager
General information and characteristics
IMPORTANT:
Read this instruction manual thoroughly before starting
the installation.
For trouble-free installation, which should be carried out by a
qualified installer, follow the installation chart sequence.
Follow all current national safety code requirements. In particular
ensure that a properly sized and connected ground wire is in place.
After installation thoroughly test the system operation and
explain all system functions to the owner.
Leave this manual with the owner for consultation during
future periodic maintenance.
Dispose of packaging material in accordance with local
requirements.
The manufacturer denies any responsibility and warranty shall
be void if these installation instructions are not observed.
Inspect equipment for damage due to improper transportation
or handling: file an immediate claim with the shipping company.
Do not install or use damaged units.
In case of any malfunctioning turn the unit off, disconnect the
mains power supply and contact a qualified service engineer.
Models
There is only 1 model, which is easily configurable for all installations.
Products that the Zone Manager can Interface
40KMC and 40KMQ------301 Cassette,
40QNC and 40QNQ------3
Hiwall.
Wiring
The Zone Manager can be connected to one unit (that is the
first in the network).
Each unit must be connected one after the other (daisy chain).
If the Zone Manager is to use its room sensor the controller has to
be located in the same area as the addressed unit(s) number 1.
Power
Note that the Zone Manager requires no batteries and is not
"power stealing". It requires 12 VDC to be connected for proper
operation, which is easily obtained from any of the unit by
means of an auxiliary board.
The Zone Manager will not operate without this connection.

Choosing the installation site
The Zone Manager Location
The Zone Manager can be located anywhere.
However, if the installation requires the systems in the location
in zone 1 to use the Air Sensor on the Zone Manager; then, the
controller should be mounted:
Approximately 5 feet (1.5 m) from floor.
In the same area where the units from group are located,
preferably on an inside partitioning wall.
On a section of wall without pipes or duct work.
If the air sensor on the Zone Manager has been selected, it
should NOT be mounted:
Close to a window, on an outside wall, or next to a door
leading to the outside.
Exposed to direct light or heat from a lamp, sun, fireplace, or
other temperature-radiating object which may cause a false
reading.
Close to or in direct airflow of a heating or cooling supply.
In areas with poor air circulation, such as behind a door or in
an alcove.
Minimum clearances
5' (1,5 m)

Considerations
Maximum of 150 feet (500 m) of total network wiring.
Maximum of 32 units allowed on a system.
Maximum number of zones 8.
Only zone 1 can use the room sensor located on the Zone Manager.
Network wiring must be daisy chained.
CAUTION:
Star configuration can cause improper operation of the
Zone Manager.
Mounting
WARNING:
Before installing the Zone Manager, turn off all power to
the unit that will supply power to the Zone Manager.
Electrical shock can cause personal injury or death.
Turn off all power to the unit.
Open the Zone Manager rear door (mounting base) to expose
mounting holes.
The base can be removed to simplify mounting (snap apart
carefully at hinge to separate mounting base from remainder
of the Zone Manager).
Route the Zone Manager wires through the large hole in the
mounting base.
Level mounting base against wall (for aesthetic value only the
Zone Manager need not be level for proper operation) and
mark the wall through the 2 mounting holes.
Drill two 3/16" (5 mm) mounting holes in wall where marked.
Secure mounting base to wall with 2 screws and anchors
provided (additional anchoring holes available for more
secure mounting if needed), making sure all wires extend
through hole in mounting base.
Adjust length and routing of each wire to reach the proper
terminal in the connector block on the mounting base, with
Mounting
Mounting screws
Connection cables
Holes
1/4" (6 mm) of extra wire [strip no more than 1/4" (6 mm) of
insulation from each wire to prevent adjacent wires from
shorting together when connected].
Match and connect equipment wires to proper terminals in the
connector block (See section "Electrical connections").
Both power and communication wires must be connected
correctly for proper Zone Manager operation.
Push any excess wire into the wall and against mounting base.
If the air sensor is being used on the Zone Manager, seal
hole in wall to prevent air leaks.
Leaks can affect sensor operation.
Close the Zone Manager assembly making sure pins on back
of circuit board align with sockets in connector.

CAUTION:
Improper wiring or installation may damage the Zone
Manager.
Check to make sure wiring is correct before proceeding
with turning on unit.
Please note that:
A communication board is required for all products that are
networked to a Zone Manager system.
The kit includes a communication board, a pre-assembled
5-cable wiring connected to a 6-way connector and to a 5-way
terminal block and one installation manual.
The auxiliary terminal block (5 poles) must be secured
according to the 33MC9004 wiring kit installation manual.
By means of the J8 connector, connect the communication
board to the main board.
In the case of troubles during installation, remove the main
board from the control box.
Wiring Zone Manager to master unit
The Zone Manager has the ability to control up to 32 units.
To insure the correct operation of this system the wiring must
be installed using the following guidelines.
WARNING:
Before connecting any wiring to the Zone Manager , turn
off all power to the unit that will supply power to the Zone
Manager. Electrical shock can cause personal injury or
death.
The Zone Manager is connected to the master unit using the
following instructions. Refer to Diagram 1 when making these
connections.
