APPLICATION
Zonemaster single VAV system is a fully featured and engineered system
that is well suited to all ducted, reverse cycle, heating and evaporative
air conditioning systems for light commercial, residential or apartment
applications. It is especially designed for an area with dynamic heat loads,
and where a constant or exact temperature is required.

COMPONENTS
1) Touchpad
User can input control commands from the touchpad to turn a
zone on/off and set temperature. The LCD on the touchpad
displays clock, room temperature and zone status.
2) Damper Motor (Yellow)
Damper Motor drives the blade of the damper to modulate
the air from ducting to the zone.
3) Supply Air Sensor
Supply air sensor measures the temperature of the supply air
for cooling/ heating mode detection.
4) Power Supply
The 24VAC transformer provides power to the touchpad
and damper.
5) Battery
3.6 V rechargeable battery for real time clock backup.
6) Central Latch Triple Adaptor
Connects the touchpad to the damper motor and power supply
7) Mounting Bracket
8) Control Cable Premade 7m

CONNECTION DIAGRAM
The cabling of the Zonemaster single VAV system is straightforward.
The touchpad connects the damper motor and power supply in serial via
an adaptor, and the temperature sensor can be plugged into the socket on
the back of the touchpad, as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1. Wiring Diagram
INSTALLATION
1) Plug the 24VAC power supply
into the power-in port and
a pre-tested control cable
into the touchpad port in the
adaptor. Plug the adaptor into
the damper.
Warning
- Zonemaster components
are not compatible with
other motors.

2) Connect the pre-tested
cable to the touchpad.
3) When power is applied,
the LCD screen on the
touchpad should show
clock time and the
temperature where the
touchpad is located.
Otherwise, check the
power supply and the
cable.
4) Turn off the power and disconnect the
touchpad. Position the touchpad at the right
place. Ideally, its position is approximately
1.6M off the oor on the wall. Fit the cable
through the wall cavity and connect the
touchpad again.
Please note that the touchpad should not be exposed
to directs sunlight and other heat sources.
5) Mount the supply air sensor in the supply air
duct upstream from the motorised dampers.
Fit the sensor cable through the wall cavity
and plug into the socket on the back of the
touchpad.
6) Connect the battery by plugging into the socket
on the back of the touchpad.
7) Mount the touchpad onto the bracket in the wall
cavity. Connect the cable to the 24VAC power
supply. The LCD should show clock time and
temperature.

COMMISSIONING INSTRUCTION
The Zonemaster single VAV has two parameters, room temperature and
minimum ventilation, that should be set in the commissioning stage.
1. Initiating and Exit Setting Process
1) Hold down both and buttons for
about 5 seconds until the LCD displays ‘Setting’
on the top line of the LCD screen.
2) At the setting mode, pressing button at
any time will return to the normal operation
mode.
2. Room Temperature Sensor
The touchpad has an onboard sensor for temperature control. The sensor
can be calibrated to provide more accurate temperature control as follows.
1) Using an accurate probe to measure the
temperature of the area you want to calibrate
and record the value.
2) At the setting mode, press button until
the LCD displays the ‘Sensor’ screen.
3) Press or button to adjust the
displayed value to the value recorded.
3. Minimum Ventilation
Customers may prefer minimum ventilation during the climate control. This
ventilation allows a minimum airow into the zone that is switched on. The
amount of ventilation can be set from 0 to 30% open with a default of 0%.
1) At the setting mode, press button until
the LCD displays the ‘Min Vent’ screen.
2) Press or button to adjust the
percent value of the minimum ventilation as
desired.

4. Damper on/off Test
1) Switch on the air conditioner.
2) Press button to turn the zone on or off to check if the damper is
correctly connected by feeling the air at the outlet. Refer to User’s
manual for the operation.
TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE

Programming Mode
Programmable zone temperature control is an important feature of
the Zonemaster single VAV system. This system has a 5-1-1 program
capability which means the system has an individual program for
weekdays (Monday to Friday), Saturday and Sunday respectively. Each
program has 4 programmable events per day: Wake, Day, Back and
Sleep, which can be turned on or off individually. For these events, the
user can adjust the start times and the cooling/heating temperature setting.
In order to use the program, the user has to enable the program during the
setup.
The Zonemaster single VAV system provides a battery backup real time
clock to support the programming mode. The program is set in default
mode from the factory with the settings listed in the following table.
