Temperature Set Buttons Select the heating or cooling desired temperature and then adjust with these buttons Back Select back to save changes and return to the previous menu or wait 30 seconds and the easy Zone Touch will automatically return to the previous menu Page 9 EASY ZONE TOUCH Safety Systems As the EASY ZONE TOUCH does not directly control the heating and cooling system turn the heating amp cooling system on or off directly it simply reports the zone temperatures to the standard supplied controller thermostat The standard thermostat then controls the heating and cooling system based on the sensing zone temperatures and thermostats set point This zone control strategy offers the most flexible control and impacts least on the heating and cooling system electronics thereby protecting warranties Given the wide variety of heating and cooling system capable of being controlled by the EASY ZONE TOUCH a number of innovative passive and active protection strategies have been incorporated into the EASY ZONE TOUCH design to protect the heating and cooling system hardware Therefore depending on the requirements of your installation you may find that the EASY ZONE TOUCH makes some demands of you as setup by the installer Some restrictions may include some or all of the following Not being permitted to close all zones simultaneously Not being able to open all zones simultaneously Keeping at least one zone as a2. Sensing zone at all times Limiting the maximum number of Active zones System messages on the status bar will guide you in using the EASY ZONE TOUCH For example if you want to close the bedroom zone and you not permitted simply open another zone first and then try closing the bedroom zone This ensures that a sufficient number of zones are open at all times to maintain the necessary air flow through the heating and cooling system for safe operation Performing a Reset The EASY ZONE TOUCH is a microprocessor based device and in rare circumstances as a consequence of power surges or the like may seem erratic or show garbled data and need to be reset Simply press the reset button with a thin blunt object such as a ball point pen or a straightened paper clip to perform this function No user or installer settings will lost Appendix 1 Available Zone names Master Girls Room Boys Room Nursery Bed 1 Bed 2 Bed 3 Bed 4 Dining Family Living Lounge Rumpus Games TV room Play Room Study Guest Theatre Bathroom Downstairs Upstairs Spare Room Pool Kitchen Kids Room Laundry En suite Alfresco User defined Page 10 Appendix 2 Status messages Message Explanation Max Number of Active Zones reached This is normal message A limit on the maximum number of temperature controlled Sensing zones may be set by the installer This limit has been reached Spill Opened This

10. oning is such an energy efficient method of climate control it is recommended that a smaller than normally required heating and cooling system be used This saves money as a capitol investment and in ongoing energy bills Disadvantages of Zone control Many heating and cooling systems must maintain a minimum volume of air through the system for them to work effectively As zones are closed the volume of air through the heating and cooling system may be reduced and if too many zones are simultaneously closed while the heating and system is running the heating and cooling system may shut down to protect itself The EASY ZONE TOUCH will attempt to prevent this by automatically opening all zones if it detects stress on the heating and cooling system Further shutting too many zones down will increase air velocity through the open zones which now may become noisy Using a thermostat such as the Smart Temp SMT 770 that can control fan speeds on a compatible heating and cooling systems will permit you to manually select a lower fan speed to eliminate or reduce this problem Page 5 The Easy Zone touch is a microprocessor based device capable of actively controlling up to 6 temperature controlled zones It is also fitted with a LCD membrane that is touch sensitive making using the zone controller a very simple matter Without applying great pressure and using your finger tip or fingernail you are able to operate the system and turn zones
