ZTS-110 Z-Thermostat
Introduction
ZTS-110 Z-Thermostat (Figure 1) is a Z-Wave enabled programmable thermostat
that allows you to control your room temperature with programmable time schedule
such as WAKE, AWAY, HOME and SLEEP event which can maximize energy
conservation and comfort while minimizing the effort required to maintaining the
appropriate temperature in your home whether you are at home or away.
Also, you can use the ZTS-110 to control / check your room temperature by smart
phone or PC while you are at home or outside through Z-Wave gateway.

Glossary
Devices and nodes are all terms to describe an individual Z-Wave
device. These are all interchangeable when setting up your Z-Wave
network.
Device or Node
4
Inclusion Add a Z-Wave device to the network.
Exclusion Delete a Z-Wave device from the network.
Remove To take a device out of a group, scene or association group while that
device still exists in the same Z-Wave network.
Network Wide
Inclusion (NWI)
Network Wide Inclusion (NWI) enables both end-user friendly, Plug
and Play like Z-Wave network installation as well as professional
installation scenario where the inclusion process in terms of time will
be reduced significantly. NWI is a feature supported by a new frame
type named Explorer which enables the Z-Wave protocol to implement
Adaptive Source Routing.
Z-Wave
Network
A collection of Z-Wave devices is controlled by primary and secondary
controllers operating on the same system. A Z-Wave network has its
own unique ID code so that controllers not in the network cannot
control the system.
Primary
Controller
The first controller is used to set up your devices and network. Only
the Primary Controller can be used to include or delete devices from a
network. It is recommended that you mark the primary controller for
each network for ease in modifying your network.
FLiRS Mode
FLiRS is abbreviation for "Frequently Listening Routing Slave".
FLiRS mode is targeted for battery operated applications and will enter
sleep mode frequently in order to conserve battery consumption. The
response to Z-Wave command is not as quick as Always Listening
Device. Normally there is 1-2 seconds latency.
Always
Listening Mode
Always Listening mode is targeted for AC power operated applications
and it can act as a repeater, which will re-transmit the RF signal to
ensure that the signal is received by its intended destination by routing
the signal around obstacle and radio dead spots. The response to
Z-Wave command is immediate.
Association
Association is used to organize nodes in different groups allowing the
device to identify the nodes by a group identifier. The groups can also
be copied to other devices.

Physical Installation and Wiring
Read following scenarios carefully before you start as it matters to the
battery life under Z-Wave operation:
ZTS-110 can be powered by 4 x AAbatteries, and/or 24Vac C wire.
a) If it is powered by batteries or powered by batteries first then applied with 24Vac
before Z-Wave inclusion, ZTS-110 will self-configure to FLiRS mode which will
save battery life by sleeping.
b) If it is powered by 24Vac or powered by 24Vac first then applied with batteries
before Z-Wave inclusion, ZTS-110 will self-configure to Always Listening Mode
which will not sleep.
c) After inclusion process, ZTS-110 will not detect power source and not allow
changing operation mode. You must perform exclusion process first if need to
change Z-Wave operation mode.
d) After Z-Wave inclusion process, if you reset ZTS-110 to default while both 24Vac
and batteries are applied, ZTS-110 will take 24Vac as primary power source and
self-configure to Always Listening Mode, because reset to default process will
automatically exclude ZTS-110 from the Z-Wave network. You should disconnect
the power source and re-apply the power so ZTS-110 can detect the power
source type and self-configure to corresponding mode.
You may check Glossary for the definition of FLiRS mode and Always Listening
Mode.
CAUTION
- We highly recommend that this installation procedure is performed by a
trained HVAC technician.
- Read the enclosed instructions carefully before installing your new Z-
Thermostat. Pay close attention to all warnings and notes and carefully
follow the installation steps in the order they are presented to save time and
minimize the risk of damaging the thermostat or the system it controls.
- Turn off ZTS-110 and the electronic devices (e.g. heater, cooler) which will
be connected and the electric source before installation and maintenance.
Battery safety!
- Use new batteries of the recommended type and size only.
- Never mix used and new batteries together.
- To avoid chemical leaks, remove batteries from the ZTS-110 if you do not
intend to use the unit for an extended period of time.
- Dispose of used batteries properly; do not burn or bury them.

Installation Location
The Thermostat is restricted to be used in indoor only. It should be mounted on an
inner wall about 1.5m (5ft) above the floor at a position where it is readily affected
by changes of the general room temperature with freely circulating air. Avoid
mounting above or near hot surfaces or equipment (e.g. TV, heater, refrigerator).
Avoid mounting where it will be exposed to direct sunshine, drafts, or in a laundry
room or other enclosed space. Do not expose this unit to dripping or splashing
liquids.
Physically Installing the Thermostat
1. Open the ZTS-110 by pulling the two sections apart (Figure 2). Use the fingertips
of one hand to grip the tab on the front housing.
2. Apply power to the thermostat:
a) For battery power, install four AA batteries (alkaline recommended). Match
the polarity of the batteries with the +/- marks inside the battery compartment.
b) For 24Vac power, connect the wires as described in "Wiring"
3. Insert the two included wall anchors into the wall, aligned with two of the
mounting holes in the back housing of the thermostat.
4. Fasten the back housing to the wall using the two included mounting screws.
Insert the screws through the mounting holes in the housing and into the wall
anchors. (Figure 3)
5. Align the front housing of the thermostat with the back housing and push until the
housing sections are locked together.
Figure 3. Install the front housing
Figure 2. Open ZTS-110

Wiring
- Be sure the operation mode is OFF
and Fan selection is Fan Auto
- Wire the proper cables at the terminal
block according to the circuit diagram
- Afterward, push all cables back into
the wall
- Do not use metal conduit or of cable
provided with a metal sheath
- Recommends adding fuse or
protective device in the line circuit
Important!
If you will be powering the ZTS-110 with 24Vac:
Connect the "24Vac Common" (typically the black wire/terminal) and "24Vac
Power" (typically the Red wire/terminal) from the HVAC system to the ZTS-110
HVAC System terminal block "C" and "RH" or "RC" terminals (see the following
explanation, these may be jumpered together).
Common or Split Transformer Systems:
Most HVAC systems have a common heating and cooling transformer. You must
insert a jumper wire to tie the RH and RC inputs together for this configuration. If
you have a system with separate heating and cooling transformers, do not insert a
jumper wire between RC and RH.
When wiring split systems, wire the heating systems "24Vac Power" (red wire) to
the ZTS-110 "RH" terminal, and wire the cooling systems "24Vac Power" to the
ZTS-110 "RC" terminal. Also wire the cooling systems "24Vac Common" to the
ZTS-110 "C" terminals.
Note: Do not split RC/RH for Heat Pump systems!

Jumper Settings for ELECTH-HPUMP and HE-HG
There are 6 jumpered pins on the thermostat circuit
board that identify whether your system is:
- Gas or electric heater
- Non-heat pump or heat pump system
You must ensure that these pins are set correctly for
your system. The pin location is shown in the following
diagram which is located at back side of ZTS-110.
Set to HG for Gas heat-fan controlled unit (Default)
Fan will maintain off state.
Set to HE for Electrical heat-fan controlled unit
Fan will be turned on when there is heating output.
