Simple Timer
The Simple Timer can be used to turn the
aircon unit ON or OFF after a set time.
The timer can be set up to 12hours.
Pressing the Trash icon clears the timer.
NOTE: This is a once-only timer that does not repeat each day. More
advanced timers can be setup in the Plans Screen.
Target Temperature
The Target Temperature is the temperature you
would like to achieve. Press the + or - symbols
to adjust the number.
Fan Speed
The air-con Fan speed can be set to LOW,
MEDIUM or HIGH
HANDY TIP: Your air-con unit is most efcient when maintaining a Target
Temperature. Ensure your Target is set to a Temperature that is comfortable for
you. Cooling or Heating a home past what is comfortable will result in higher
energy usage.
Operation Mode Selector
• COOL – Cool your home in summer
• HEAT – Warm your home in winter
• FAN – Used to recirculate air within
the home, a great energy efcient option if you just want to move some
air around the home as only your fan in the roof space will run & not the
outside unit.
• DRY - This can be used to reduce the humidity in your home (if
supported by air-con unit brand and model.)

3 - ZONES PAGE
Press Zones button on the menu bar to bring up the Zones Screen.
Pressing a Zone name toggles that Zone between ON and OFF. Zones are OFF
when they are in grey colour.
There are four different types of zones in MyAir depending on the option you
selected when purchasing your system.
• Airow Zone
If there is no sensor installed in a particular zone then it will be shown as an
AIRFLOW zone. In this instance, you have the ability to control the air in 5%
increments. Use the - / + buttons when a zone is turned ON, to adjust the
amount of airow going to that zone.
• Temperature Zone (Optional)
If your zone has a temperature sensor installed, MyPlace will allow you to choose
your desired temperature with the - / + buttons. MyPlace will aim to maintain the
desired temperature in that zone by automatically controlling airow when the
air conditioner is running.
• MyZone™ (Optional)
If enabled (by your dealer) any zone with temperature control (or motion
sensor) can be selected as the MyZone. Press the thermometer to designate that
particular zone as the MyZone. The MyZone is explained on the following page.
• Motion Zone (Optional)
If your zone has a motion sensor installed then this zone will have the same
functionality as a temperature zone (above) but a walking man symbol will
appear next to it. If you press the walking man symbol it will turn dark grey
indicating the motion sensor is activated for that zone and pressing it again will
deactivate it. Motion controlled Zones are explained on page 8.

4 - MYZONE (OPTIONAL)
The MyZone feature makes that particular zone the “information centre” for the
air conditioning unit. That means the set-point for that zone becomes the set-
point the air conditioning unit will work toward. The actual measured temperature
of that zone is the temperature sent to the unit for it to make its decisions about
whether to start/stop or speed up/down to effectively achieve the set-point while
maintaining constant airow in the MyZone.
The MyZone can be any temperature controlled zone that is currently turned ON,
to change the MyZone to another zone press the thermometer symbol next to the
zone you want to be the new MyZone.
This feature can be particularly important when you have an unusually high
requirement for air conditioning in a particular area. For example, a group of
people watching a movie in Theatre room with all the electronic A/V equipment
turned on will have a larger requirement for air conditioning than in other rooms
in the house. Setting the Theatre as MyZone will ensure that the system continues
running until the temperature set-point for that room is achieved.
Only one temperature controlled zone can be the MyZone at any one time, if you
are using multiple zones it is recommended that you make the largest zone the
MyZone and then move the MyZone around as you move around the home.
MyZone is an optional feature available on systems where MyZone has been
enabled; your dealer may enable this feature depending on the way you use your
system and the layout of the installation.
NOTE: MyZone is not available for systems with no temperature sensors
installed.

User Manual V3.3 8
5 - MOTION ZONE (OPTIONAL)
Motion controlled Zones vary the temperature in unoccupied zones in order to
save energy on air conditioning empty spaces.
For example:
You are cooling your home with the master bedroom Zone target temp set at 24oC
with motion enabled. Once MyAir has detected that the bedroom has been empty
for more than 10 minutes it will increase the target temperature by 1oC. Then after
a further 10 minutes of being empty MyAir will increase the temperature again by
1oC, making the new target temperature 26°C. As soon as motion is detected in the
room the target temperature returns to normal.
In the case of heating your home the motion sensor works in reverse, by
decreasing the target temperature in the empty Zone.
HANDY HINT: Motion sensors are designed to save you energy, but to save
even more energy switch off the zones you are not using.
User Manual V3.3 9
6 - CONSTANT ZONES
Depending on your specic installation, your MyAir system may be set up with
electronic Constant Zones. These are pre-programmed by your installer to relieve
excess air pressure in your air-conditioning system if insufcient zones are open.
Constant Zones are noted with a small letter C to the right of the zone name. Your
installer may setup 1, 2 or 3 constants zones depending on the size of your system
& the design of the home.
Example: Below you can see two constant zones are set, Lounge & Kitchen
indicated by the C to the right of the zone name.
In this example these two zones may open automatically to relieve excess air
pressure when needed.

5 - FRESH AIR (OPTIONAL)
If your system is tted with the optional fresh air feature, you will nd a button
at the bottom of your zones screen as pictured below. Turning ON fresh air will
enable your system to draw in air from outside the home.
This feature is particularly useful when the outside temperature is pleasant such as
in the evenings.
To use this functionality, we recommend that you set your aircon to FAN mode
and turn your fresh air ON, this will draw fresh air in from outside and distribute it
throughout your home without running the outside unit; reducing your running
costs.
NOTE: Using Fresh Air enabled when it is hot or cold outside, with the air-con
set to cooling or heating will signicantly increase electricity usage.
This optional feature requires additional hardware to be installed.
