INTRODUCTION
The Evolution Zone System consists of several intelligent
communicating components which includes the Evolution Zone
Control (or User Interface), Smart Sensors, Damper Control
Module, variable speed furnace or FE fan coil, 2--stage AC or HP
and Evolution Packaged Products, which continually communicate
with each other via a four--wire connection called the ABCD bus.
Commands, operating conditions, and other data are passed
continually between components over the ABCD bus. The result is
a new level of comfort, versatility, and simplicity.
All Evolution furnaces or fan coils are variable--speed and
multi--stage for maximum flexibility, efficiency, and comfort. They
support controlled ventilation, humidification, dehumidification,
and
air quality
control.
Either an
Evolution
2--stage
(communicating), or a standard 24VAC controlled outdoor unit
may be used.
When using conventional outdoor units, the Evolution furnace or
fan coil provides the 24 volt signals needed to control them. Also,
the Evolution Damper Control Module (P/N SYSTXBB4ZC01)
allows connection of a Bryant HRV or ERV without the need for a
separate wall control.
All system components are controlled through the wall mounted
Evolution Zone Control, which replaces the conventional
thermostat and provides the homeowner with a single wall control
for all features of the system.
Design Considerations
The Evolution Zone system is unique because a bypass damper
must not be used. This is possible due to the intelligence of the
system and variable speed motor technology. For trouble--free
applications, the following parameters should always be met:
1. Zones should be sized so that each zone can deliver at least
the minimum airflow for the system in both heating and
cooling modes.
2. Oversize duct work by 25% to avoid excess noise at mini-
mum zone airflow.
3. Be aware that heating airflow may be higher than cooling
airflow depending on equipment combination.
INSTALLATION AND START--UP
OVERVIEW
This instruction covers installation of the Evolution Zone Control
only
. Physical installation instructions for the indoor and outdoor
equipment, Damper Control Module, and accessories are provided
with each unit.
Setup, commissioning, operation, and troubleshooting of the
Evolution Zone System are covered in this installation instruction.
It is the guide to connecting the system components and
commissioning the system once all physical components are
installed. Special screen prompts and start--up capabilities are
provided in the Evolution System to simplify and automate the
initial commissioning of the system.
S

S
Setup, commission, and operate system according to this
instruction to assure a smooth and trouble free start--up.
INSTALLATION
Check Equipment and Job Site
Inspect equipment. File claim with shipping company prior to
installation if shipment is damaged or incomplete.
Evolution Zone Control Location and Wiring
Considerations
ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury
or death.
Disconnect power before routing control wiring.
!
WARNING
All wiring must comply with national, local, and state codes.
Evolution Zone Control Location
The Evolution Zone Control User Interface is the command center
for the Evolution Zone System and is typically located in Zone 1 to
sense and control temperature in this zone. It should be located
where it is easily accessible and visible to the adult homeowner or
end user.
For accurate temperature measurement, the following guidelines
should be followed:
The Evolution Zone Control and Room Sensors should be
mounted:
S
Approximately 5 feet (1.5 meters) from the floor.
S
Close to or in a frequently used room, preferably on an
inside partitioning wall.
S
On a section of wall without pipes or ductwork.
The Evolution Zone Control and Room Sensors should
NOT
be
mounted:
S
Close to a window, on an outside wall, or next to a door
leading to the outside.
S
Exposed to direct light or heat from a lamp, sun, fire-
place, or other temperature--radiating objects which
could cause a false reading.
S
Close to or in direct airflow from supply registers.
S
In areas with poor air circulation, such as behind a door
or in an alcove.
Remote Room Sensor Option
A Remote Room Sensor can be used with the Evolution Zone
Control to take the place of the User Interface internal temperature
sensor. This allows the Evolution Zone Control to be mounted in
areas with less than optimal airflow (such as near an exterior door,
window or in a closet). The remote sensor can be wired to the
terminal block connectors labeled S1 and S2 at the User Interface
backplate, or the OS1 and OS1C connection at the Damper Control
Module. In either case, the Evolution Zone Control will
automatically detect the Remote Room Sensor and ignore its
internal temperature sensor. It is also important to note the
humidity sensor cannot be remotely located, so do not locate the
Evolution Zone Control in an area where humidity sensing may
not be accurate.
NOTE
: S1 & S2 connection on User Interface backplate is now
used for Remote Room Sensor, NOT for OAT Sensor hookup.
In addition, the Remote Room Sensor is a temperature sensor only,
having no additional user inputs. This sensor is typically connected
to the Damper Control Module and used to sense and control
temperature in each zone.
