2. Press the USB button for 5sec or until the LED flashes RED.
3. Wait for the USB LED to turn solid green before removing it. This should take less than 20sec. Once done it
will create/update 4 files:
a) *.zcf - The configuration file read from the network
b) *.csv - A spreadsheet listing information about the system and modules connected to the network
c) CZone.bak - A backup copy of the configuration file. This needs to be present when writing updated
configuration back to the network
d) CZone USB Result.txt –A text file describing the result of the last operation performed, as well as these
instructions
3.5.3 Writing Configuration To Network
To write the system configuration from the USB to the network you must:
1. Insert a USB drive in to the Control 1. The following files must be present in the root folder:
a) CZone.bak - This config file backup must match the existing systemconfig before a config update can occur.
This file is generated by copying the existing configuration to the USB as above.
b) *.zcf - A single configuration file to be written to the network. If more than one file is present no update will
occur.
c) No firmware update files (*.czfwp).
2. Press the USB button for 5sec or until the LED flashes RED.
3. Wait for the USB LED to turn solid green before removing it. This should take less than 20sec.
4. Once the system configuration has been updated the following files will be created/updated:
a) *.csv - A basic spreadsheet listing information about the system and modules connected to the network.
b) CZone USB Result.txt - A text file describing the result of the last operation performed, as well as these
instructions.
3.5.4 Updating Device Firmware
To update firmware of devices on the network you must:
1. Insert a USB drive with the following files in the root folder: The following files must be present in the root folder:

Figure 5. Deutsch HDT-48-00 Crimp Tool
ENVIRONMENT
Obey the following stipulations during installation:
•Ensure the Control 1 is located in an easily accessible location for quick access to fuses
•Ensure indicator LED’s are visible for troubleshooting
•Ensure circuit label is fitted and all channels labelled correctly
•The Control 1 must be mounted at least 50mm away from high current carrying conductors such as anchor
winches, bow thruster cables, speakers, transformers and other high inductive loads.
•Ensure Control 1 is mounted either vertically or horizontally
•Ensure the bulkhead that the unit will be attached to is sufficiently strong to take the weight of the unit.
•Ensure there is sufficient clearance above the Control 1 to allow the cover to be removed.
•Ensure there is at least 10mm clearance around the sides and top of the Control 1

EN / CZone® Control 1
14
PLANNING
•Make a list of all inputs and outputs to be wired to the Control 1 and take note of the output channel ratings
and functions as shown in Figure 6. Ensure loads are wired to the appropriate channel for the functionality
required.
•All 25A channels have the option to alarm on detection of external voltage, useful for circuits such as Bilge
Pumps with an external or “automatic” supply from a float switch. This feature reduces wiring by allowing
control and feedback from a single wire. See Figure 7 for a Bilge Pump wiring example.
•For loads with a continuous current exceeding max channel current it is possible to parallel output channels
up to 80A for OUT-H connector and 100A for OUT-L connector (do not parallel outputs between connectors).

5. Connect DC Negative
1. Connect a 2.5mm² (12AWG) cable from the battery negative terminal or main negative bus to the Control
1’s M6 negative stud.
6. Connect DC Positive
1. Connect an appropriately sized and fused cable from the battery positive terminal to the Control 1’s M8
positive stud.
2. The positive cable must be of sufficient size to carry the maximum current of all loads connected to the
Control 1 and have a fuse/circuit breaker rated to protect the cable, volt drop should be kept to a
minimum.
3. Maximum recommended cable size is 70mm² (2/0). Cables larger than 70mm² (2/0) should be connected
to a positive stud first with a link to the Control 1.
4. It is possible to connect two positive cables “back to back” on the positive stud for linking the supply on 2
or more Control 1’s.

LABELS & FUSES
1. Label the Circuits
1. Using a suitable label maker, print the output names (1-16) matching the load list and physical plug
connections.
2. Label the Inputs
1. Using a marker pen, write the analogue and digital input names matching the input list and physical plug
connections.
2. Write the Control 1 module number and location (i.e. Control 1 01 –Engine Room). This should match the
module name in the configuration.
3. Mark the dipswitch setting of the Control 1. This is usually assigned automatically when writing the
configuration and needs to be unique for each module on the CZone system.
INSERT FUSES
Figure 11. Fuses In Normal Operation
IMPORTANT: The Control 1 is not software fused like the COI module, so it is imperative each ATC fuse is
rated to protect the cable connected to the output. Failure in doing so may cause a fire hazard.
1. Insert appropriately rated ATC fuses into the NORMAL operation (bottom) position of all fuse holders.

SET DIPSWITCH
•Using a small screwdriver carefully set the dipswitch on the Control 1. The dipswitch number must be unique
for all modules on the CZone network and must match the dipswitch setting in the configuration to function
correctly. The example in Figure 12 shows a dipswitch number of 01101100 where 0 = Off and 1 = On
Figure 12. Setting Dipswitch
INITIAL POWER UP
1. Check all plugs are securely seated and connections are tight.
2. Ensure the Control 1’s top cover is clipped securely in place and gasket is seated properly around fuses.
3. Power up the NMEA2000 network.
4. Check that the NMEA2000 Network LED lights up. It may also be flashing if other devices are present and
transmitting data.
5. Turn the switch/circuit breaker on supplying the Control 1’s main positive stud.
6. Check that the Power indicator LED is green.
7. Check the circuit’s status LED’s for each individual circuit. Refer to LED codes to diagnose any faults which
need to be rectified.
8. Check the software version on the Control 1 with the CZone Configuration Tool and update if necessary.
9. Write configuration file to the Control 1 and the rest of the CZone modules on the system (Refer to the CZone
Configuration Tool Instructions for details on how to configure the Control 1).
10. Test all inputs and outputs for configured functionality.
