7.3 Zone Control Systems 

 
An Energate thermostat is compatible with most zone control systems out of the box.  Each zone 
requires a separate thermostat as a single Energate thermostat is not capable of supporting 
multiple zones by itself. 
To use it with a typical zoning panel, wire up the R, C and other inputs as appropriate to the zone 
control wiring panel.  For each zone, there should be an appropriate array of terminals similar to 
those normally on the wiring panel of the HVAC equipment. 
Please treat each array of terminals, one per thermostat zone, as a separate piece of HVAC 
equipment and follow the instructions from earlier in this guide for that HVAC equipment type.
