4) Wiring Schematic
NOTE: The zones on the touchpad are marked as Z1, Z2, Z3, Z4, Z5
and Z6 from the top of the touchpad.
5) Zoning areas and selecting 4-zone or 6-zone label
Air conditioned areas can be zoned
according to their functions and daily
 usagesuchasFamilyroom,Lounge,
 Library,etc.Thesezonenamesarechosen
as desired along with a 4-zone or 6-zone
label. For 1 to 4 zones it is recommended
to use the 4-zone label and for 5-6 zones
it is recommended to use the 6-zone label.
The 4-zone and 6-zone labels (provided)
are shown in the picture.
6) Main Module Preparation
Mount the main control module by screwing the box to a roof frame or
 PolyaireDiusionFitting(PDF).Itisrecommendedtomountthemain
control module equidistant from all the damper motors.
There is a LED on the mainboard to illuminate the
 zoneportnumbersontheboardindarkandto
indicate power supply when the power is on.
The LED is controlled by the light switch (switch 2).
Turning it to ON position will turn the LED on.
 TuningittoOFFpositionwillturnotheled.
The system has a Spill Function which can be enabled by a dip switch
(switch 1) on the main control module. Please turn the switch to ON
position if the Spill Function is to be used. The factory default setting for this
 switchisOFF,whichmeansthereisnospillfunctioninthesystemanda
permanent open zone is required to prevent pressure build up when all
motorised zones are closed from the touchpad while the AC unit is running.
See section 9) for details of setting spill function.

c) Applying Zone Names to Zones
It is essential to apply correct names
  againstthezonestomakesurethe
end user is fully aware of the location
of each zone. The zone names are
  printedonastickerwhichistobe
  peeledoasdesiredandappliedinthe
relevant zone name recess on the
  touchpadrst.There are 31 preset
names which can be used or personal
  namescanbewrittenonthe2blank
  stickersprovided.After applying the
zone name label on the touchpad,
  peelothetransparentprotective
  coveringlmfromthetopofthelabel.
7) Touchpad Preparation
a) Exploded Diagram
The picture to the right
shows an exploded
view of the touchpad
assembly.
b) Pushbutton (on
Touchpad) and Zone
output ports (on Main
module)
Pushbutton Z1 on the
touchpad controls zone
output Z1 on the main
control module and the
LED light for the button
on the touchpad indicates the zone status. The picture shows the
relevant pushbutton and zone output port on the touchpad and the
main control module respectively.

d) Applying 4-Zone or 6-Zone Label
The 4-zone or 6-zone label is applied after the zone names have been
  appliedonthetouchpad.The4-zoneor6-zonelabelispeeledofrom
  thestickerandthenappliedontothetouchpad.Ensurethelabelhas
been applied within the recess provided. After the label is applied on the
  touchpad,peelothetransparentprotectivecoveringlmfromthetop
of the label.
NOTE: For a 4 zone system, use Z2, Z3, Z4 and Z5 on the touchpad
  andconnectthedampermotorstotherelevantportsZ2,Z3,Z4and
Z5 on the main module.
8) Installing the Touchpad
a) Insertaatheadscrewdriverintothetwogapsatthebottomofthe
casing and turn the screwdriver blade just enough to open the cover
asshowninthegurebelowandthenremovethebackcoverby
sliding it out.
b) Positionthebackcoveronthewall(about1.5mhighfromtheoor)
  andmarkthepositionsforscrewsandthecut-outholeforthesocket.
Cut the hole and retrieve the touchpad cable (from the main module)
  andplugitintothetouchpad.Mountthebackcovertothewallonthe
  markedplace.
c) Attachthefrontcovertothebackcover.Twotouchpadscanbe
installed in one system and connected to the touchpad ports T1 and
T2 on the mainboard respectively. The two touchpad ports are equal
and the touchpads can be connected to any of them.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If a 4-zone system is used, the zone names are to
be stuck on Z2, Z3, Z4 and Z5 recess respectively. For a 6 zone system,
the zone names are to be stuck on the Z1, Z2, Z3, Z4, Z5 and Z6 recess
respectively. For a system with less than 4 or 6 zones, the blank stickers
can be stuck on the relevant zone recesses that are not being used.

9) Setting Spill Function
This is a function designed to automatically open a damper if someone
attempts to shut down all dampers thus preventing pressure build up in
 theduct.AnyzoneinthesystemcanbesettoSpillzone.However,DO
NOT use bedrooms as the spill zone. During sleep time if the air
 conditionerisonandthespillzoneisautomaticallyforcedtoopen,the
spill zone will be very cold or hot. This may cause discomfort if bedrooms
are used as spill zones. It is recommended to use the zones close to the
return air grille as the spill zone.
When the spill function is set by turning on the spill function switch on the
 mainboard,thedefaultspillzoneiszone2.Ifzone1oranotherzoneis
 chosenasthespillzone,pressingandholdingtheon/obuttonforthat
zone for 5 seconds will set this zone as the spill zone. The LED of all
 zoneswillashquicklytoindicatethespillsettingissuccessful.Releasing
 thebuttonwillbringtheLEDsbacktonormalandthespillfunctionofthe
 zonewillremaintillnextchange.Ifallzonesareclosed,thespillzonewill
 automaticallyopentospillexcessairanditsLEDwillashslowlyto
indicate the spill function is activated. Turning on any zone from the
 touchpadwilldeactivatespillingandtheashingwillstop.Thisfunctionis
disabled in factory default setting.
Ifthe4-zonemembraneisappliedonthetouchpad,pleasepressand
hold pushbuttons for zone 2 and zone 5 at the same time till all LEDs
 ash.Thiswilldisablepushbuttonsforzone1andzone6andcloseboth
zones which are not used. Accidental touching on the areas of zone 1
and zone 6 buttons will not turn on zone 1 or zone 6. The spill function
(if enabled) will perform accordingly. Pressing and holding push buttons
 forZone1andZone6atthesametimeuntilallLEDsashwillbringback
 Zone1andZone6tonormaloperation,andtheywillrespondtopressing
action accordingly.
Inthecasesofzonesnotbeingused,pleasemakesuretheunusedzones
 areclosed.Otherwise,thespillfunction(ifenabled)willnotperformasit
should and pressure may build up in the duct and cause damage.
NOTE: If the spill function is set, please make sure to choose an
installed zone as spill zone, which has a motorised damper
connected to.
