Jackson Systems WZ1 User manual

Installation and Operation Manual
The WZ1-T is a battery powered, auto-changeover thermostat
that communicates via an RF wireless data link to a damper
control module located on the Zone One™ damper. The
system is designed to prevent overheating and overcooling of
individual zones.
.
An automatic changeover duct sensor located on the damper
senses whether there is warm air or cool air in the branch
supply duct. If the Zone One™ thermostat is calling for cooling
and the duct sensor determines there is cool air in the duct, the
damper will power open; otherwise, the damper will remain
closed. If the Zone One™ thermostat is calling for heating and
the duct sensor determines there is warm air in the duct, the
damper will power open; otherwise, the damper will remain
closed. The relay control module has LED indication to confirm
mode of operation and damper position.
Up to 8 WZ1 thermostat controlled dampers
can be used in the same location

The thermostat should be located in the area being controlled by the zone damper and away from the HVAC unit
thermostat. Do not install the thermostat in an area where drafts are present, near the floor, behind doors or on an
external wall. Avoid placing the thermsotat in areas where the air movement is limited, affected by direct sunlight or other
areas not typical of the temperature in the space.
